The two-stage locking structure of the hood is intended to prevent the hood from being opened by the driving wind speed even if the hood is completely locked while driving.

However, there are many problems in installing the hood latch configured and operated as described above.

That is, in the base plate 20 for installing the hood latch 10 on the vehicle body, as shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, a fastening portion 21 having fastening holes 22 is provided in the lateral direction from the base plate 20. Each is formed to protrude.

As the fastening portion 21 protrudes laterally from the base plate 20, the fastening hole 22 provided in the fastening portion 21 faces forward and fastens the bolt 30 to the fastening hole 22. The bolt 30 is gradually entered from the front to the rear.

Since the bolt 30 is fastened from the front of the vehicle to the rear, the hood latch 10 is installed and the hood 30 is exposed by the gap between the hood and the radiator grill in the state where the hood is closed, without opening the hood. As the bolt 30 can be easily released from the outside of the vehicle by using a simple tool, the hood can be easily opened to prevent theft of components in the engine compartment.

Therefore, in order to prevent this, as shown in FIG. 5, a separate protector 40 is installed in the front end 50 so as to cover the protector 40 so that the bolt 30 is not exposed. It is to prevent theft of the parts, but this was a problem that the productivity is reduced due to the increase in the parts cost and the additional work process by installing a separate protector (40).

Accordingly, the present invention is to solve such a conventional problem, and the object of the present invention is to prevent the hood latch installation bolts from being exposed by the gap between the radiator grill and the hood while the hood is closed without installing a separate protector. It is possible to effectively prevent theft of parts in the engine room without lifting the bolts without lifting the bolts. Therefore, the anti-theft device of the hood latch for automobiles can reduce parts costs and improve productivity by removing the protector. It is to.

In order to achieve the object of the present invention, the present invention in the installation of the hood latch by the base plate formed with a plurality of fastening portion, the fastening hole is formed by protruding horizontally protruding forward from the upper side of the base plate provided with a fastening hole It characterized in that the screw is fastened from the upward direction to the downward direction.

The present invention as described above protrudes the direction of the fastening portion formed in the base plate horizontally to the bolt to be fitted in the fastening hole of the fastening portion from the upper direction to the downward direction so that the bolt is not exposed in the closed state to lift the hood By not lifting the bolt without raising the conventional protector to remove the conventional protector to cover the bolts, as well as reducing the cost of the parts there is an effect that the productivity is improved by shortening the work process.
