Zusammenfassung:An impact energy absorbing device for a vehicle includes a plurality of cells that are grouped together to form a matrix structure defining a mounting region and a contact region. The cells crush along their respective longitudinal axes when exposed to an impact force on the contact region. Each of the longitudinal axes of the plurality of cells in the matrix structure diverges with respect to neighbouring cells in a direction from the mounting region to the contact region.
