ABSTRACT:
A bumper assembly has a cross beam formed with an outer vertical web and two horizontal sides extending inward from upper and lower edges of the web, and two vehicle frame members having support ends spaced inward from and vertically offset from a center of the cross-beam web. Respective crash boxes each formed as a horizontally extending tube have an outer end engaging the bumper cross beam and an inner end fixed to the frame members. The outer ends of the crash boxes are vertically offset from the respective inner ends. The inner ends of the crash boxes bear outward generally only on the web and on one of the sides of the cross beam. The other of the sides of the cross beam is generally out of engagement with the crash boxes.
