SYSTEM FOR DEVIATING PART OF THE EXTERNAL PANELLING OF A MOTOR VEHICLE

摘要

The invention relates to a system for deviating part of the external panelling of a motor vehicle, in particular the motor bonnet or the boot lid during a collision, in order to reduce the impact energy of a person colliding with said deviated part on the exterior of the motor vehicle, by displacing the part in the opposite direction to that of the deviation. Said system comprises a device for deviating part of the outer panelling, which is engaged at least at one point on the part and permits a displacement of the part against the deviation direction if a person collides with said part. According to the invention, the deviation direction (2) is controlled in accordance with the moment, the point and/or the direction of collision, in such a way that depending on the moment, and/or point and/or direction of collision with the deviated part (M) of the external panelling, the deviation device (2) permits a displacement of the part (M) of the external panelling against the direction of deviation (a), or counteracts a displacement of this type, thus preventing the latter.
