CA 2554164

A vehicle hood for achieving generally predetermined deformation in an event of a front impact. The hood may include an outer panel including at least one raised section along rear and side edges of the hood for thereby defining a reverse power dome. An inner panel may be attached to the outer panel and include at least two laterally extending beams each of which extend substantially across a width of the hood respectively adjacent front and the rear edges. At least one crush initiator may be disposed adjacent each of the laterally extending beams for enabling generally predetermined deformation of the hood in the event of a front impact.

Un capot de véhicule visant à obtenir une déformation généralement prédéterminée en cas de collision frontale. Ce capot peut comprendre un panneau extérieur comportant au moins une partie relevée le long des bords arrière et latéraux du capot, définissant de la sorte un dôme d'absorption d'énergie inversé. Un panneau intérieur peut être fixé au panneau extérieur et comporter au moins deux longerons latéraux, tous deux se prolongeant sur la largeur du capot et étant adjacents respectivement aux bords avant et arrière. Au moins un amorceur d'écrasement peut être placé à une position adjacente aux longerons latéraux afin de permettre une déformation généralement prédéterminée du capot en cas de collision frontale.
