In this paper, we study the multiplicity of solutions with a prescribed
L2-norm for a class of nonlinear Kirchhoff type problems in
R3 where
a,b>0 are constants,

get such solutions we look for critical points of the energy functional
restricted on the following set

Ib is unbounded from below on
Sr(c). By using a minimax procedure, we prove that for any
c>0, there are infinitely many critical points
