Abstract

A hood latch assembly for a vehicle. The housing includes an insertion recess that enables the striker coupled to the bonnet of the vehicle to be withdrawn into and out of the insertion recess. An end portion of the latch is pivotally coupled to the interior portion of the housing. A mounting recess on the other end portion of the latch enables the striker to be withdrawn into and out of the mounting recess. A support protrusion is formed on one end portion of the fitting recess. The safety hook includes a hinge provided on one end portion to be pivotally connected to the outer portion of the housing and a sliding protrusion provided on the other end portion to allow the striker to slide when in contact with the striker. When the bonnet is in the closed position, the safety hook is supported by the support protrusions so that it cannot pivot.
