However, in the above-mentioned impact beam, since the third portion and the fourth portion are thicker than the first portion and the second portion, the third portion and the fourth portion are formed. The toughness of the first and second parts is lower than the buckling strength of the four parts, and when load is applied to the first part, bending deformation occurs before buckling deformation starts in the third and fourth parts. Cracks and fractures will occur in the first and second portions that undergo tensile deformation. Therefore, there is a possibility that the shock absorption performance may be significantly reduced.
