Part is piled up in the case of the frontal crash which the deflector null part

摘要

The invention relates to a deflector device for motor vehicles, which is arranged in front of a front wheel (6) for the protection thereof in the event of a partially overlapping frontal collision. For safely pivoting the front wheel inwards in the event of a collision, said deflector device forms a kinematic chain, the connecting rod of which is a deflector (12) which is pivoted backwards and displaced towards the outside of the vehicle on a frontal impact. The kinematic chain is a slider-crank mechanism which comprises a small connecting rod (13), pivoting around a bearing (14), another bearing (16), a sliding guide (16) and the connecting rod (12), connected to the outer end of the small connecting rod at a hinge point (15) and guided in the other bearing (16).
