A pedestrian protection device of a vehicle includes a first body element mounted to the vehicle and having a connecting section. The pedestrian protection device includes a second body element that includes a hollow profile section. The first body element is movably received in the hollow profile section. The pedestrian protection device includes an elastically deformable exterior component connected to the second body element. The hollow profile section of the second body element is displaced from a rest position to a crash position upon the application of force against exterior component. The pedestrian device includes a latching device that releasably latches the connecting section of the first body element with the hollow profile section of the second body element when set in the crash position.

Pedestrian protection device for a vehicle

A secondary transformer unit for mounting on a vehicle having an electric drive includes at least one secondary core, and at least one secondary coil that is arranged on the secondary core. At least one outer skin is provided to envelope the secondary core and contains reinforcing fibers. The outer skin is configured to retain inside the at least one outer skin fragments produced when the at least one secondary core breaks.

Secondary transformer unit for mounting on a vehicle having an electric drive, and vehicle having an electric drive

A vehicle with an electric drive includes at least one deformation element for protection of pedestrians, which is at least partially formed of a foamed material; at least one secondary transformer unit for electrically charging an energy storage device of the vehicle; and at least one shielding element configured to prevent propagation of electromagnetic radiation emitted from the secondary transformer unit into the vehicle.
