ABSTRACT:
A hood latch device for a vehicle comprises a base plate secured to a vehicle body. A striker is secured to a pivotal hood of the vehicle body. A primary latch plate and a locking plate are pivotally connected a rear surface of the base plate and engageable with the striker to permit the hood to have a locked full-close position and a released open position. A secondary latch plate is pivotally connected to a front surface of the base plate and engageable with the striker to permit the hood to have a slightly open position and the released open position. A first stopper is arranged to stop an excessive pivoting of the secondary latch plate by contacting a given part of the secondary latch plate. The first stopper is provided by bending an end portion of the base plate without producing an opening therethrough.
