Abstract
The invention relates to a motor vehicle device including a one-piece fastening system of the motor vehicle. This fastening system includes a fastening flange, a guiding member having at least one supporting member and a supporting surface participating in maintaining the guiding member in a first position, and an elastically deformable portion exerting a restoring force adapted to restore the guiding member into said first position.
Claims12
A device of a motor vehicle comprising a system for fastening to a part of the motor vehicle, characterized in that the fastening system comprises:
- at least one fastening flange, the at least one fastening flange comprising a first portion having at least one orifice,
- at least one guiding member projecting from the orifice along an axis substantially orthogonal to said first portion, the guiding member comprising at least one supporting member against a first face of said first portion participating in maintaining the guiding member in a first position, the supporting member being able to penetrate in the orifice when a force experienced by the device has an intensity greater than a threshold value, the force having a direction substantially parallel to the axis,
- at least one supporting surface participating in maintaining the guiding member in said first position,
- at least one elastically deformable portion exerting a restoring force adapted to return the guiding member to said first position.
