Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A component arrangement having a first component and a second component is provided. At least one component has a plurality of preforms, wherein the plurality of preforms of the first component overlap a preform of a second component in the connecting region of the two components.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A component arrangement, comprising: a first component that is an A-pillar of a motor vehicle; a second component that is a roof frame of the motor vehicle, wherein the first and second components comprise a plurality of preforms, and in a connecting region of the first and second components, the plurality of preforms of the first component overlap the plurality of preforms of the second component, in such a way that a preform of an outer shell of the roof frame, on an outer side thereof, is in contact with an outermost preform of an outer shell of the A pillar, and the preform of the outer shell of the roof frame, on an inner side thereof, is in contact with another preform of the outer shell of the A pillar, a preform of an inner shell of the roof frame, on an outer side thereof, is in contact with an outermost preform of an inner shell of the A pillar, and the preform of the inner shell of the roof frame, on an inner side thereof, is in contact with both: i) the another preform of the outer shell of the A pillar, and ii) another preform of the inner shell of the A pillar. 2. The component arrangement according to claim 1 , wherein the first and second components are fiber-reinforced components having a matrix made of duroplastic or thermoplastic material, in which reinforcing fibers made of one of carbon, glass, aromid, and/or basalt are embedded.
