Abstract: A stowage compartment for a motor vehicle, wherein the stowage compartment is designed to be arranged underneath a hood element of the motor vehicle, wherein the hood element forms a part of the outer skin of the motor vehicle, wherein the stowage compartment includes: a trough-like container; a cover connectable or connected to the container, wherein the cover is movable relative to the container around a pivot axis between a closed position and an open position, a hinge device, which enables the pivot movement of the cover relative to the container it is provided here that the hinge device is designed in such a way that the cover is automatically held in an arbitrary open position from a minimum opening angle (Wmin) and up to a maximum opening angle (Wmax), and in that the cover automatically moves into a closed position because of gravity below the minimum opening angle (Wmin).
