Vehicle including a body component and an additional body part, particularly a hatch door, which is movably mounted on the body component. The hatch door can be mounted on a power-assisted pivoting axis by means of a pneumatic spring or strut hinged by connection elements to form a pneumatic spring assembly. The vehicle has a component, particularly a trunk compartment cover, which moves simultaneously with an hatch door by means of a connection. The connection is mounted between the component and the pneumatic spring assembly. |
|
DETAILED DESCRIPTION According to the present invention, the object can be achieved by connecting the additional component (for example, the trunk compartment cover) to the pneumatic spring assembly.
In a preferred embodiment, there can be no need to use a separately screwed-in or tension-mounted bolt as part of the connection.
Simply using the pneumatic spring as a connection point can eliminate the bolt and the bolt's possibly time-consuming installation.
In order to avoid the use of welded components on the cylinder of the pneumatic spring, the additional component (for example, the trunk compartment cover) can be connected by means of a connection element on the pneumatic spring.
One possible embodiment of the present invention specifies that the connection element have a bearing head connected to a safety bracket.
The safety bracket can hold from behind a connection bearing whereby the safety bracket has a receptacle for the connection.
Alternatively, the connection element can include a bearing head, that, in possible embodiments of the present invention, does not include a safety bracket.
The bearing head can act together with a connection bearing in which case the bearing head can include a receptacle for the connection.
In yet another embodiment of the present invention, the receptacle can be designed as a mushroom-shaped pin.
Conversely, the receptacle can be designed as a slot inside a bar or as an angled hook.
An advantage of all the design variations notably can be that, essentially, no additional component has to be mounted on the pneumatic spring.
Moreover, in a further embodiment of the present invention, there can be the possibility that the already existing component of the pneumatic spring can be adapted with minimal technical effort.
The pneumatic spring practically takes over an additional function during the movement of the hatch door.
In other words, the pneumatic spring can continue in its original function to assist in moving the hatch door, but can also be connected to the additional component to assist in moving the additional component
