Abstract:

A barrier assembly for an energy storage system includes a panel and an energy storage pack. The panel includes an outer surface and an inner surface opposing the outer surface. The energy storage pack is spaced from the panel relative to the inner surface of the panel. The barrier assembly further includes an intermediate structure disposed between the inner surface of the panel and the energy storage pack. The intermediate structure is configured to absorb energy when a load is applied to the outer surface of the panel and configured to redistribute the load along a plurality of load paths through the intermediate structure as the load is applied to the panel. A vehicle includes the barrier assembly discussed above. The vehicle includes a support structure and the barrier assembly is coupled to the support structure. The inner surface of the panel faces toward the support structure.

International Classification:

B62D 21/15
B60R 19/34

Abstract:

An energy absorbing structure for a vehicle includes a body having an outer periphery defined by one or more outer walls. An inner periphery of the body is defined by and extends between the one or more outer walls. A first end and a second end of the body are defined by the one or more outer walls. A transverse plate is disposed within and extending at least partially through the inner periphery of the body to provide structural support to the body, wherein the transverse plate cooperates with and extends between the first wall and the opposing second wall. The transverse plate divides the inner periphery into a first compartment defined between the third wall and the transverse plate and a second compartment defined between the fourth wall and the transverse plate.
