Knee support for occupants

A knee support is arranged in the area of a control panel inside a passenger compartment of a body of a motor vehicle and exhibits a transverse frame member, which is provided with at least one deformation element. The deformation element, covered at least in areas in relation to the passenger compartment by a support wall of the control panel, includes a first bracket segment, which is in alignment with the knee impact areas, and a second bracket segment, which is connected to the transverse frame member, in such a manner that the first bracket segment absorbs energy primarily by flection; the second bracket segment, as a function of the load by compression and/or flection; and optionally the transverse frame member absorbs energy as a function of the load by flection and/or by torsion.
