Publication number: 20250369261Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle locking device, in particular a motor vehicle lock and preferably a motor vehicle bonnet lock. The motor vehicle locking device is equipped with a locking mechanism (2, 3) which consists substantially of a rotary latch (2) and a pawl (3). Furthermore, a lock case (7) is provided for mounting the locking mechanism (2, 3). The lock case (7) is designed to be deformable in response to forces (F) that are acting thereon and those caused by acceleration, for example in the event of a crash. According to the invention, above a certain force (F) the deformable lock case (7) rests against the locking mechanism (2, 3) in order to increase a common section modulus.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 12, 2023Publication date: December 4, 2025Applicant: Kiekert AktiengesellschaftInventors: Aleš KEJDANA, Jan SUK
