Abstract
A load rod for vehicles, especially motor vehicles, which rod is constructed so as to be a tow rod, an impact rod, a mounting rod, or similar rod. The load rod includes a loop portion as well as force distributing legs that diverge from the loop portion and extend at a distance from each other. The force distributing legs are provided with a mounting section for enabling a mounting of the force distribution legs at portions of a body of the motor vehicle that have greater rigidity. The mounting sections are joined to the body portion of the motor vehicle by a welding. The load rod, formed as a connecting rod, includes at least two individual shaped rods having a predetermined cross section. The individual shaped rods are, within a connecting level, placed against each other with their rod loop portions and are welded together, while the individual force distributing legs diverge outwardly in a direction from both sides of the connecting level.
