Trunk lid arrangement

Structure of mechanism
Function	The motion device described in the patent relates to a trunk lid arrangement. A linkage used for moving the trunk lid can be modified between two arrangements. In the first mode it is based on 4 links and 4 joints and is driven by a sliding element. In the second mode it is based on 8 links and 10 joints and is driven by a cylinder. The here given dates are based on the second mode. The degree of freedom of the mechanism for both arrangements is F = 1.
