CONNECTOR DEVICE BETWEEN A HEADLIGHT UNIT AND A CHASSIS MEMBER ON A MOTOR VEHICLE A FRONT LIGHT UNIT AND CORRESPONDING MOTOR VEHICLE

摘要

The invention relates to a device (19) comprising a headlight unit support (29) which may be displaced on a frontal impact between a forward position and a rearward position and guide means (33) for displacement of the support (29) along a longitudinal axis (X-X') from the forward position to the rearward position thereof. The device (19) comprises means (35) for pivoting the support (29) about an essentially vertical axis to guide the support (29) laterally towards the exterior on displacement from the forward position to the rearward position thereof. The pivoting means (35) have a front end (61) with an articulated connection to the support (29) and a rear end (63) for articulated connection to the chassis element (15). The guide means comprise a connector body (33) which may be longitudinally deformed on impact. The connector body (33) runs from a front edge (53) fixed to the support (29) and a rear edge (51) for fixing to the chassis element (15).
