  • System for slidably mounting and self-centering a hood
    Patent number: 10315705
    Abstract: A system that mounts a motor vehicle hood on a body of the vehicle includes a guide element to slidably guide the hood relative to the body in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle and a locking element to lock the hood to immobilize the hood relative to the body in a closed position, in which it seals off an engine compartment. The locking element assumes an activated state as a result of a sliding movement of the hood relative to the body in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle in a first direction. The guide element includes a self-centering element to self-center the hood relative to the body in a direction transverse to the vehicle while the hood slides in the first direction, and ensures that the closed position of the hood is a predetermined position in the transverse direction and is constant relative to the body.
