Abstract

An energy-absorbing knee bolster frame () for a vehicle () comprises a longitudinal knee contact member (), a first energy-absorbing transverse bracket member () and a second energy-absorbing transverse bracket member (). The first energy-absorbing transverse bracket member () and the second energy-absorbing transverse bracket member () extend in a transverse direction (Y) and are spaced apart on the longitudinal knee contact member (). The longitudinal knee contact member () has a knee contact surface () for receiving a part of a knee () of an occupant (P) upon a collision. The first energy-absorbing transverse bracket member () has a cross section defining an open profile, and is adapted at one end () to engage with a vehicle interior component (), and includes a plurality of first deformation segments (A-N) configured for absorbing energy generated by a knee impact.
