More Information
Summary:A hood hinge for a motor vehicle includes a first part attached to a vehicle body part and a second part attached to a front hood. A lift mechanism is configured to extend the attachment parts from a starting position into a cushioning position in which the front hood is raised from the starting position. The lift mechanism includes a first lever coupled to one of the attachment parts and a second lever coupled to the other attachment part for rotation about a rotational axis respectively. The first and second levers are rotatably coupled about a rotational axis. A traction element generates a traction force by extension of the attachment parts, which limits the extension movement thereof.
