ABSTRACT:
A side impact protection device has a side impact carrier and a fastening device for the side impact carrier on a motor vehicle door part. The fastening device has at least one console and a holding bolt which reaches through the console and an end section of the side impact carrier in respective fastening openings. To simply fasten the side impact carrier, at least one load-alleviating opening is constructed at a distance, viewed in the longitudinal range of the side impact carrier, behind the fastening opening in the side impact carrier or in the console, and a material projection, as a deformation resistance, is situated between the fastening opening and the load-alleviating opening. After deformation of the deformation resistance, the holding bolt enters into the load-alleviating opening. The longitudinal axis of the holding bolt extends approximately parallel to the principal axis of inertia relevant to the load case of the side impact carrier.
