ABSTRACT:
A front bumper structure for a vehicle, which protects not only the vehicle and passengers in the vehicle when the vehicle collides with another vehicle or object, but also a pedestrian when the vehicle collides with a pedestrian. Since a lower reinforcing member is protruded directly from a bumper cover and at most two carrier-connected portions are formed on the bumper cover, the front bumper structure reduces its weight due to the omission of any stiffener, reduces the production costs due to the reduction in material costs, decreases the man-hours in the manufacturing of the front bumper structure, and increases the safety of the pedestrian due to the use of a horizontal reinforcing rib rigidly supporting the corner portions of the bumper cover.
