The disclosure provides a bonnet hinge structure. The bonnet hinge structure pivotally supports the bonnet to the vehicle body from the rear end of the bonnet, and includes: a lower hinge member fixed to the vehicle body; an upper hinge member fixed to the bonnet fixing portion of the bonnet, and pivotally connected to the lower hinge member in a manner of being able to rotate to a first height relative to the lower hinge member in the up-down direction of the vehicle body; and a rotation suppressing portion provided with a deviation restricting member. When the upper hinge member is deformed in the left-right direction of the vehicle body, the deviation restricting member comes into contact with the upper hinge member at a position of the second height lower than the first height from the top of the upper hinge member, and prevents the upper hinge member from rotating.

Pivot device with an interlocking lifting mechanism

A pivot device with an interlocking lifting mechanism includes a first interlocking member to which first and second shafts and a second interlocking member are pivotably connected. A torque device is mounted around the first and second shafts. A third interlocking member is pivotably connected to the second interlocking member and includes a sliding groove. A fixing seat includes a pivotal member extending through the sliding groove. The second interlocking member is slidably received in a guiding groove of the guiding seat. When the first shaft pivots through a certain angle, the first interlocking member pivots about the second shaft and actuates the second interlocking member. The third interlocking member pivots relative to the fixing seat. The sliding groove slides relative to the pivotal member. The second distal end synchronously slides relative to the first guiding groove to lift an auxiliary screen unit connected to the third proximal end.
