Abstract

1,019,195. Hood linkages. DAIMLERBENZ A.G. March 1, 1963 [March 3, 1962], No. 8296/63. Heading B7B. The main hood pillars 15 are pivoted to the body at the bottom of the compartment 11 and are controlled by a crank 13 and links 14, 14<SP>1</SP>. At the upper ends of the pillars 15 are main pivots 16 which carry the intermediate cantrails 20. Also pivoted at 16 is a tensioning lever 22 connected at its forward end 23 to a link 24 carried by the front rail 21, and at its rearward end to a link 27 carried by the rear hoop stick 9 which is pivotally mounted on the pillars 15. The hoop stick 9 in the erected position of the hood is held down on to the cover 10 pivoted at 30 and which may be biased to the open position. The pivots 16 are also connected by link 17, 17<SP>1</SP> and cranks 19 to the vehicle body. To collapse the hood the front hoop 7 is detached from the windscreen pillar and rotated rearwardly and upwardly about the cant-rail pivots 211. This movement rotates the lever 22 clockwise about the pillar pivot 16 thereby raising the hoop stick 9 by pulling on the link 27 until it reaches a vertical position (Fig. 2). Further movement of the hoop 7 will collapse the hood into the compartment 11.
