Patent number: 12377917Abstract: The invention relates to a front structure for a utility vehicle, preferably for a lorry, as well as a utility vehicle comprising a front structure of this type. The front structure comprises two lateral longitudinal frame rails, a cooling module arranged between the longitudinal frame rails and supported on the longitudinal frame rail via lateral pivot bearings with a common pitch axis, and a pendulum support secured to the cooling module and supported directly or indirectly on the longitudinal frame rail for absorbing tilting movements of the cooling module. The pendulum support is characterised by a target failure point, which is designed to fail in the event of a head-on crash with a crash-related application of force, in order to release a tilting movement of the cooling module and/or to no longer absorb same.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2021Date of Patent: August 5, 2025Assignee: MAN Truck & Bus SEInventors: Thomas Knyrim, Alexander Stockmaier, Alexander Kopp
