A deformation element for the front area of a motor vehicle comprises cylindrical bodies (5) and/or balls that are disposed in an approximately perpendicular relation to the direction of impact and, at least in the area of impact, behind a flexible shell (9). The cylindrical bodies (5) / balls are disposed and configured to give way under the effect of a local impact in a substantially nondestructive manner, thereby deforming the shell (9). If the impact is a large-area impact, the cylindrical bodies (5) / balls can give way only to a small degree or are destroyed if the impact is sufficiently high. The deformation element is preferably used as pedestrian protection structure. |
