Wheel Carrier of a Vehicle With a Press Fit Connection

摘要

A wheel carrier of a vehicle has a press fit connection to a further component, preferably a suspension strut. The wheel carrier includes a screw connection with a screw for clamping the press fit connection, and a lever with a fastening portion and an impact portion. The fastening portion is fastened under a head of the screw or under a nut of the screw connection. The impact portion protrudes from the fastening portion in such a manner that, in the event of a vehicle crash and the associated deformation, a part of the vehicle brings about a force on the impact portion in order at least partially to release the screw connection. The fastening portion is designed in order at least partially to break out from under the head or the nut during the action of force on the lever.
