Abstract

A front lid for a vehicle, especially a motor vehicle, which front lid includes an outer panel, where, in a predetermined region or in the entire area of the front lid below the outer panel, at least one inertia mass is arranged, and the inertia mass is formed of a flexible heavy layer.

Claims (15)

1 . A front lid for a motor vehicle, comprising:

an outer panel; and

an inertia mass arranged in a predetermined region or in the entire area of the front lid below the outer panel;

wherein said inertia mass is formed of a flexible heavy layer.

2 . The front lid according to claim 1 , wherein the inertia mass in the form of the heavy layer is formed as a matt-like built-on or built-in part—mass pad—, or wherein the inertia mass in the form of the heavy layer is injected into a cavity formed between the outer panel and an internal structure that is attached to the outer panel to provide stiffening hardening.

3 . The front lid according to claim 1 , wherein the inertia mass in the form of the heavy layer contains a bituminous composition.

4 . The front lid according to claim 3 , wherein the heavy layer has a density of 2.0 to 2.6 g/cm 3 .

5 . The front lid according to claim 3 , wherein the bituminous composition contains plastics.

6 . The front lid according to claim 1 , wherein the inertia mass in the form of the heavy layer contains a flexible rubber-based plastic composition.

7 . The front lid according to claim 6 , wherein the heavy layer has a density of 2.0 to 2.2 g/cm 3 .

8 . The front lid according to claim 7 , wherein the plastic composition furthermore contains foreign plastics.

9 . The front lid according to claim 5 , wherein the heavy layer, as a matt-like built-on or built-in component—mass pad—, on its backside comprises a planar element for stabilizing the bituminous composition or plastic composition and/or, at least on its top side, comprises adhesive means for attaching the heavy layer to the backside of the outer panel.

10 . The front lid according to claim, wherein at least the outer panel comprises aluminum or an aluminum alloy, magnesium, plastics, fiber-reinforced plastic or another suitable light-weight construction material.

11 . A motor vehicle, having a front lid according to claim 1 .

12 . A method for manufacturing of a front lid for a motor vehicle, which front lid comprises an outer panel, wherein in a predetermined region or in the entire area of the front lid below the outer panel at least one inertia mass is arranged, wherein a flexible heavy layer is used as an inertia mass.
