Abstract
A fold-back deformation arrangement includes a deformation tube of plastically deformable material and a support arrangement with a fold-back surface engaging one end of the tube. The arrangement is designed so that relative angular motions between the fold-back surface and the deformation tube are possible without tending to buckle the tube.
