Abstract:
1. A device ( 1 ) for absorbing mechanical energy for motor vehicles, wherein the device ( 1 ) has a honeycomb-like cavity structure ( 2 ) and is arranged between a first body section ( 3 ) and a second body section ( 4 ), wherein the device ( 1 ) can be deformed during the absorption of mechanical energy, wherein the deformation generates a force-fitting connection between the two body sections ( 3 , 4 ), wherein, on the device ( 1 ), there is formed a lug ( 5 ) whose cross section has a honeycomb-like cavity and which interacts with a projection ( 6 ) on the first body section ( 3 ) such that, during a deformation of the device ( 1 ), the projection ( 6 ) is at least partially surrounded by the deformed lug ( 5 ).
