Kind Code:

Abstract:
The invention relates to a support device for a front end of a passenger motor vehicle, comprising at least one vehicle body component (8) extending in the vehicle vertical direction, by means of which respective longitudinal support elements (6, 7, 10), which are associated on the sides, of respective longitudinal support planes are connected to each other, a transverse support (14) of a front end module (12) which is retained on the body of the passenger motor vehicle, at least a first support element (16) which is provided on the body component (8) on a side (15) facing outwardly in relation to the transverse direction of the vehicle and which comprises a receptacle (19), and at least a second support element (18) which is arranged outside of the body component (8) in relation to the transverse direction of the vehicle, provided on the transverse support (14) and extends rearwardly from said transverse support (14). In an initial state of the support device, the second support element is spaced apart from the first support element (16) and, as a result of a corresponding accident-caused application of force, it can be displaced at least partially into the receptacle (19), thereby supporting the first support element (16).
