Abstract
A front section for a motor vehicle, especially passenger motor vehicle which has the task during normal driving operation to absorb without permanent deformation the forces stemming from the wheel suspension and to absorb by deformation the energy occurring in case of an impact of the vehicle. The front section according to the invention should be manufacturable cost-favorably and rationally with a small number of parts and is to offer a high safety for the vehicle passengers. The end wall of the front section is thereby divided horizontally into an upper part and a lower part, and the fork bearer is made of an upper shell and of a lower shell while one shell of the fork bearer is made in one piece with the lower part of the end wall. The front section made in this manner offers additionally a high degree of safety for the vehicle passengers in the passenger cell and is suited especially for passenger motor vehicles in which longitudinal bearers are supported at an end wall by way of fork bearers.
