Abstract

The present impact absorbing member includes: a hat-shaped member having a hat top section; and a plate-shaped member facing the hat top section. A deformation guidance section is provided on a wall section of at least one of the hat top section and the plate-shaped member. The deformation guidance section includes: a first high strength section having relatively higher buckling resistance in the wall section; and a pair of low strength sections having relatively lower buckling resistance and arranged on both sides of the first high strength section therebetween in a view along the longitudinal direction. Furthermore, the impact absorbing member includes a pair of second high strength sections disposed on both sides of the deformation guidance section to be adjacent to the pair of low strength sections in a view along the longitudinal direction and having a higher buckling strength relative to the low strength sections.
