Abstract

A mounting support for a flat structural part projecting from the outer body of a motor vehicle, such as a firm emblem, a radiator figure, or the like, which is connected with the body by way of a first pivotal connection and a second pivotal connection, whereby the first pivotal connection is provided with a bearing socket open in the direction toward the structural part and with a joint member pivotal about three different axes intersecting at least approximately in a common point forming the pivot center; the second pivotal connection providing only a single degree of freedom of movement connects between the joint member with the structural part whereby the pivot axis of this second pivotal connection is arranged essentially transversely to the driving direction and at least approximately parallel to the outer body panel.
