Abstract: A device for temporarily holding an opening element in an ajar position relative to a stationary element of a body of a vehicle, including a body provided with at least one mounting method, and a retaining method including a tab a first end of which is designed to cooperate with a first flange of a housing and a second end of which provides a junction with the body, wherein the tab includes, between the first end and the second end, an intermediate area including at least one section configured to distribute stresses applied to the tab when the device is moved to the ajar position or the fully open position.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device (100) for holding an opening element in an ajar position on a stationary part of a body of a motor vehicle, comprising a spacing element (1) provided to be attached to a stationary part of the vehicle body or to the opening element, the spacing element (1) comprising a base (10) provided for attaching the spacing element (1) to the stationary part or to the opening element, characterized in that the spacing element (1) comprises: —a connecting member (30) attached to the base (10) and comprising an elastically deformable zone (32) designed to deform under the action of stresses exerted by a holding member presented by the opening element (200) or the stationary part, —a retaining member (40) attached to the connecting member (30) and comprising an elastically deformable zone (41) designed to deform under the action of stresses exerted by the holding member.

Abstract: An interface is intended to be fixed to a first rim edge of an opening element or of a fixed element of a motor vehicle body in order to protect a retaining portion of a device for temporarily closing the opening element on the fixed element provided in order to carry out the steps of painting the motor vehicle from contact with the rim edge. The interface has a portion in the general shape of a cage intended to house the temporary closing device. A kit including the interface and the temporary closing device is also described.

Abstract: A device temporarily closes an openable body section on a stationary element of automobile body, wherein a recess is provided in the openable body section or in the stationary element, said device including a body with an anchoring unit configured to anchor onto the stationary element or onto the openable body section, and including a retaining unit to keep the openable body section in an intermediate position, wherein the retaining unit consists of an elastic tab capable of bending under stress exerted by a first edge of the recess during the movement of the openable body section from a free open position to the intermediate position, wherein the free end is made of a polymeric material, with a hardness between 90 on the Shore A scale and 60 on the Shore D scale, and a tear strength, as measured according to the ISO 34-1 standard, is higher than 70 kN/m.
