By fastening a bolt (38) to a nut (40), a sloping wall portion (14B) of a fender (14) and a sloping wall portion (26F) of an apron upper member upper (26) are sandwiched between a bottom piece portion (36A) and a top piece portion (36B) of a nut plate (36)...

The arrangement has wing (2) with a reinforcing part (6) located on the inside along its upper edge (3). Wing and part form a hollow profile. The reinforcing part profile has a wall section (7), parallel and at a distance to the outer wall of the wing. The...

The arrangement has a horizontal cross member (28), and a vertical transversal baffle plate (32) for the vehicle heating. A first clearance (J1) is arranged between a face (34) of the lining of the bonnet (12) and the cross member and a second clearance (J...

A front hood structure for a vehicle is provided to improve an absorbing efficiency of collision energy at the front part of a front hood of the vehicle. In the structure, a reinforcement (4) is disposed between an outer panel (1) and an inner panel (2). T...

The side panel has an outer cladding sector (2) and a fixing sector molded to it along an outer edge (3). The panel has curved longitudinal beads (6, 7) and fixing tabs (5) at an angle to the deformation region (4). There are recesses (10) between the fixi...

The safety unit includes a support element constructed as an at least one-section deformation element(6). In the event of an impact with a pedestrian the front bonnet(2) is purposefully lowered by energy absorption through deformation of the deformation el...

The engine bonnet (1) consists of several shells and has a deformable head impact zone. In this area, it has several sections of different flexural strengths, e.g. the same as or small than a first level (B1) next to support areas like hinges, locks, etc. ...
