Abstract:
A pedestrian protection device for a motor vehicle includes a bumper crossmember and a deformation element which is arranged on the bumper crossmember and which has a first element and a second element which are displaceable relative to each other in the event of a collision of the motor vehicle, and a mechanical locking mechanism. The locking mechanism has a movable locking element which is pretensionable or is pretensioned with a spring device and which is arranged on the first element or on the second element, and with a depression or step to which the other of the first element and the second element can be latched in a form-fitting manner. In the event of a high displacement speed which is greater than or equal to a predetermined second displacement speed, the locking mechanism prevents displacement of the first element relative to the second element by means of self-locking of the locking element. In the event of an average displacement speed which is lower than the predetermined second displacement speed and greater than a predetermined first displacement speed, the locking mechanism permits displacement of the first element and of the second element relative to each other.

Claim (Index 1):
A pedestrian protection device for a motor vehicle, comprising:\n a bumper crossmember; a deformation element, which is arrangeable on the bumper crossmember and which has a first element and a second element which, in an event of a collision of the motor vehicle, are displaceable relative to each other; and a mechanical locking mechanism which has a moveable locking element which is pretensionable or is pretensioned with a spring device and which is arranged on the first element or the second element and is latchable in a form fitting manner with a depression or step to the other of the first element and the second element, wherein\n at a high displacement speed which is greater than or equal to a predetermined second displacement speed, the locking mechanism prevents a displacement of the first element relative to the second element by self locking of the locking element, \n at an average displacement speed which is less than the predetermined second displacement speed and greater than a predetermined first displacement speed, the locking mechanism permits a displacement of the first element and the second element relative to each other, and \n at a low displacement speed which is less than or equal to the predetermined first displacement speed, the locking mechanism prevents a displacement of the first element and the second element relative to each other at least partially by a form-fitting latching of the locking element with the depression or step.
