ABSTRACT:
A bumper for an object to be protected, such as an automobile, has a closed profile-section support element comprised of a rigid rear support and a front hollow section made of deformable material. The front section has two freely extending shank portions that are separably connected with the rigid support. The front section contains reenforcing ribs extending between the shank portions with their free edges arranged opposite, and at least approximately parallel to the front portion of the rigid support. In order to equalize tensile stresses and prevent tearing of the reenforcing ribs on impact, at least some of these ribs are provided with a semi-circular recess in the mid-zone of their free edges.
