ABSTRACT:
A safety bumper device incorporating a plurality of rotative bearing members that rotate to deflect the oblique forces of impact and absorb some of the head-on forces of impact. Two different rotative bearing members are shown. The bearing members are covered by a breakaway shield that helps to reduce aerodynamic drag. Upon impact, the breakaway shield gives way, exposing the faces of the bearing members so that the rotation of the bearings can deflect the oblique forces of impact.
