ABSTRACT:
An elongated bumper beam extending laterally across the end of a vehicle is supported outwardly of the vehicle body by a pair of yieldable energy managing units straddling the vehicle center line and secured to the side rails of the frame. The system incorporates special restraining connectors to provide bumper beam pivot points outboard of the energy absorbing units. On corner impacts the bumper beam turns with respect to the pivot point remote from the impacted corner to simultaneously stroke both energy managing units.
