Abstract
The invention provides a vehicular shock absorbing body which absorbs a shock by a grid-like rib formed on a support plate portion and can inhibit a load point at an initial stage and a terminal stage, in a load—displacement (F-S) curve of the vehicular shock absorbing body. A shock absorbing body () used for absorbing a shock in a vehicle and made of a synthetic resin, is provided with a support plate portion (), and a shock absorbing portion () formed in a grid shape on the support plate portion () by a plurality of thin ribs (), and plastically deforming at a time of applying a shock load so as to be absorbable a shock energy. A notch (a leading end side notch)is formed between grid crossing points () in the thin rib () from a leading end side, and a notch (a root side notch)is formed from a root side of the grid crossing points () so as to include the support plate portion (), thereby inhibiting a load point from being generated at an initial stage and a terminal stage in the F-S curve.
