<p>A hinge arrangement (3) for passenger car hoods (2) in passenger cars (2), which arrangement is intended to decrease the injuries on pedestrians, whereby the hood is of the type, which is pivotable around two hinges (8) applied at the rear end of the hood, and whereby the hood (3) is arranged to compliantly receive impacts on the vertical direction. Characteristic of the invention is that the respective hinge is fixed in two rods (9, 10) connected to the hinges (8). One of these rods is a draw rod (9), being arranged to receive forces in the longitudinal direction of the hood and essentially stop a horizontal displacement of this in connection with a collision. The second of the rods is a vertical rod (10), which is arranged to become deformed, at a vertical collision impact while receiving a predetermined vertical load and which rod is shaped to be able to receive said vertical load over a predetermined deformation length.</p> |
