Disclosed is a device for selectively moving a tailgate (30) of a vehicle from a closed position into a forward-raised receiving position and a rearward-raised loading position. Said device comprises at least one support lever which is pivotable on one side of the vehicle about a shaft that is fixed to the vehicle. The tailgate is hingedly connected to a zone of the support lever (12), which is located above the axis of rotation A of the support lever (12), in the area of the rear edge thereof in the closed position thereof. A catching part (20) that engages with another catching part (48) provided above and in front of the hinge connection on the tailgate is disposed in front of and above the hinge connection (18, 46) on the support lever (12). The front wall of the tailgate is connected to the vehicle via a hinge (40) which can be slid out of a sliding guide (44) that is fixed to the vehicle. |
