Abstract

A loading space device of a front end of a motor vehicle includes a loading space which is displaceable between a stowage position accommodated in the front end and an access position extended at least partially out of the front end. A delimiting wall configured as a flap delimits the loading space and in the access position of the loading space is displaceable to a loading position. The flap is configured as a covering element to cover, in the loading position, a component of the front end disposed in a longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle in front of the loading space. In the access position, as opposed to the stowage position, the loading space is disposed sloping towards an exterior of the motor vehicle.

Claims (11)

1. A loading space device of a front end ( 10 ) of a motor vehicle, comprising:

a loading space ( 18 ) which is displaceable between a stowage position accommodated in the front end ( 10 ) and an access position extended at least partially out of the front end ( 10 ); and

a delimiting wall ( 20 ) configured as a flap ( 46 ) by which the loading space ( 18 ) is delimited and in the access position of the loading space ( 18 ) is displaceable to a loading position, wherein the flap ( 46 ) is configured as a covering element to cover, in the loading position, a component ( 52 ) of the front end ( 10 ) disposed in a longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle in front of the loading space;

wherein, in the access position, as opposed to the stowage position, the loading space ( 18 ) is disposed sloping towards an exterior of the motor vehicle.

2. The loading space device according to claim 1 , wherein in the loading position, the flap ( 46 ) extends forwards in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle beyond a front wall region ( 50 ) of the front end ( 10 ).

3. The loading space device according to claim 1 , wherein the flap ( 46 ) has an edge ( 32 ) which, with the flap ( 46 ) in the loading position, overlaps a front wall region ( 50 ) of the front end ( 10 ).

4. The loading space device according to claim 1 , wherein in the loading position, the flap ( 46 ) is supported on the component ( 52 ).

5. The loading space device according to claim 1 , wherein the flap ( 46 ) forms a front end wall region ( 22 ) of the delimiting wall ( 20 ) that is at least rectangular in cross-section.

6. The loading space device according to claim 1 , wherein the flap ( 46 ) comprises lateral cheeks ( 48 ) which, in a closed position of the flap ( 46 ), fit flush on respective side wall regions ( 26 , 28 ) of the loading space ( 18 ).

7. The loading space device according to claim 1 , wherein the loading space ( 18 ) is configured as a box open at a top which is closable by a front lid ( 16 ).

8. The loading space device according to claim 7 , further comprising a coupling device via which the loading space ( 18 ) is coupled to the front lid ( 16 ) for displacement between the stowage position and the access position.
