Abstract
A pivotal hood-like structure, especially for use in motor vehicles, for covering a separate aggregate space underneath an engine hood which accommodate a windshield wiper installation arranged between the engine space and the passenger space within the area underneath the windshield. After turning on the windshield wiper installation, the hood-like structure is initially pivoted into and held in a first open position for the operation of the windshield wiper arms, and after turning off the windshield wiper installation, the hood-like structure is returned into the closed position by the force of a spring. The hood-like structure may be manually pivoted into a second wide open position, so as to permit easy access to the aggregate space for purposes of maintenance. A pivot axis of the hood-like structure is arranged so that it is pivoted into the aggregate space during the opening thereof.
