Rear wing device
View Patent ↗A rear wing device for a motor vehicle has a wing body which extends transversely with respect to a longitudinal direction of the vehicle and horizontally and is disposed laterally between two side parts extending parallel to the longitudinal direction and vertically. The wing body is fastened to each side part by a retaining device, wherein the retaining devices permit adjustment of an angle of attack of a profile of the wing body in relation to a horizontal orientation. The adjustability of the wing body can be improved in that each retaining device has a guide body which can be adjusted by an adjusting screw along the adjusting screw and is coupled via a first guide pin to a wing support to which the wing body is attached. The wing support can be adjusted in a manner guided by a second guide pin and a third guide pin in slideways.
