November 30, 2023
A vehicle body front structure includes: front side frames in a pair; a cross member; a bumper beam, a reinforce having one end coupled to a bent portion of the bumper beam and another end extending to a joint where one of the front side frames and the cross member are coupled to each other; and truss chassis members. Each truss chassis member includes, as vertices: a first pinned support pivotally fixed in the cross member; a second pinned support movable and rotatable, and disposed in the joint between the corresponding front side frame and the cross member; and a third pinned support movable and rotatable, and disposed in the corresponding front side frame and closer to a rear of the vehicle than the second pinned support. The reinforce is secured to the front side frame and the cross member via the truss chassis member.
