Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A structural part, in particular a structural part designed as a transverse supporting member for connection between the A columns of a motor vehicle and, more in particular as a structural part in tailgates or bumper supporting members, is to be developed in such a way that it has low weight, high mechanical stability and rigidity and is simple and inexpensive to produce. To do this, the structural part ( 1, 1 ′) is designed with a number of elongated closed or half-open synthetic material structures ( 2, 3 ), which in outer regions ( 4, 5 ) surround reinforcing filaments ( 6 ) running in the longitudinal direction (A) sectionwise, wherein the reinforcing filaments ( 6 ) are held form-lockingly in the respective synthetic material structure ( 2, 3 ) by means of formations ( 7 ) in their surface, so as to absorb tensile forces in bending of the structural part ( 1, 1 ′).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A structural part for supporting a vehicle instrument panel connected between A columns of a motor vehicle comprising: a number of elongated closed or half-open synthetic material structures of the structural part connected between A columns of the motor vehicle, wherein the elongated closed or half-open synthetic material structures have a half-open tub-like shape reinforced by one or more inner ribs; outer regions surround one or more metal wires e…
