TLDR
In this article, a door beam of a motor vehicle is provided in a vehicle door and the contour of cross-section of the door beam is of a continuously formed round wave shape.Abstract:
A door beam of a motor vehicle is provided in a vehicle door. Section modulus of the door beam is progressively decreased from a center section toward opposite ends of the door beam and the contour of cross-section of the door beam is of a continuously formed round wave shape, whereby the door beam absorbs an impact of a collision by virtue of imparting the force of the impact to both bending and tensile forces so that the bending moment acting on the center of the door beam decreases.read more
