Description

Radiator support assembly Cross Reference to Related Applications The present application claims priority from korean patent application No.10-2021-0001235 filed on 1 month 6 of 2021, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein for all purposes by this reference. Technical Field The present invention relates to a radiator support assembly. More particularly, the present invention relates to a radiator support assembly capable of reducing the overall weight and increasing the strength. Background A radiator support is an assembly in which components such as a bumper and a lamp are welded to a separate support for mounting the components. The rigidity required of the side members of the radiator support assembly is disadvantageous in that the side members of the radiator support assembly are formed in front or rear open cross sections in the front-rear direction or cross-sectional structure of the vehicle body. Further, the connection strength may be deteriorated due to lack of continuity between the cross sections of the side members, the upper member, and the lower member. The information disclosed in the background section of the invention is only for enhancement of understanding of the general background of the invention and should not be taken as an acknowledgement or any form of suggestion that this information forms the prior art already known to a person skilled in the art. Disclosure of Invention Aspects of the present invention are directed to providing a radiator support assembly, which can reduce manufacturing cost and weight. The radiator support assembly according to various exemplary embodiments of the present invention may include a radiator support upper member including an upper inner surface, a radiator support side member including a side inner surface and disposed in pairs, and a radiator support lower member including a lower inner surface, wherein the radiator support upper member, the radiator support side member, and the radiator support lower member are combined such that the upper inner surface, the side inner surface, and the lower inner surface form a single closed loop structure. The upper inner surface, the side inner surfaces, and the lower inner surface may be disposed toward a center of the closed loop structure. The radiator support upper member and the radiator support side members coupled to both end portions of the radiator support upper member may be partially overlapped and coupled to each other, and the radiator support lower member and the radiator support side members connected to both end portions of the radiator support lower member may be partially overlapped and coupled. The radiator support upper member may further include an upper side surface bent from the upper inner surface, extending in a longitudinal direction of the radiator support upper member, and forming an upper connection portion together with the upper inner surface, into which an upper end portion of the radiator support side member may be inserted. The radiator support side member may further include a side member side surface that is curved from the side inner surface, and the side member side surface may be connected to the upper side surface. The radiator support upper member may further include an upper outer surface connected to the upper side surface, and the radiator support side member may further include a side member upper surface bent from the side inner surface to be connected to the upper outer surface.
