ABSTRACT:
Provided is an improved stopper structure for defining both opening and closing limits of a lid member such as a trunk lid of an automobile requiring only a minimum number of component parts and a minimum amount of work for the fabrication process. The stopper for defining the opening and closing limits of a lid member attached to a vehicle body via a four-link mechanism 1 comprises a stopper member secured to an inner surface of the lid member, a first abutting surface provided in one of the link arms for engaging the stopper member when the lid member is opened up, and a second abutting surface provided on the vehicle body for engaging the stopper member when the lid member is fully closed. In particular, it is preferable to provide the stopper member with a plurality of contact surfaces having different heights substantially symmetrically around a mounting portion thereof.
