The present invention relates to a battery housing for an electrically powered vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, comprising a battery accommodation space made of a first flat steel product and a housing frame made of a second flat steel product, where the two flat steel products differ in terms of at least one of the properties yield strength (R), tensile strength (R) or elongation (A).

Battery housing

A battery housing for a vehicle battery includes side walls which laterally delimit an interior of the battery housing, with a mounting frame running externally around the side walls for mounting the battery housing on a chassis of an electric vehicle, and with a floor structural element delimiting the interior of the battery housing at the bottom, wherein a first reinforcing profile for reinforcing the floor structural element is arranged on said floor structural element, and/or a second reinforcing profile for reinforcing the mounting frame is arranged on said mounting frame.

Battery housing for a vehicle battery and chassis for an electric vehicle

A housing for a vehicle battery has a cover plate and a bottom plate, and a frame arranged between the cover plate and the bottom plate. The frame is connected to the cover plate and the bottom plate, and at least one crossmember element is arranged in the space which is enclosed by the frame.

Housing for a vehicle battery, and method for manufacturing a housing of said type

A battery housing for receiving battery elements, in particular for a vehicle, includes a case formed by a frame including one or more profiles and at least one first floor. The case provides an interior region for the battery elements. A second floor is positioned at a distance below the first floor and defines a space with the first floor. A cover covers the case.

Bridge portion

A method for the individualized adaptation of the shape of components includes providing a basic material for producing the components. Next at least one unifying production method is selected. The components are then produced with a geometrically identical base shape by the unifying production method. Then at least one individualizing production method is selected. Then the shape of the components is adapted to at least two different final shapes by the individualizing production method that is different from the unifying production method. The final shape of each component differs from its basic shape.

A tailored semifinished part () is disclosed in the form of a metal sheet or strip which is formed from a first blank () and at least one second blank () and the first and at least one second blank are physically, frictionally and/or adhesively () joined to one another. The first blank () may be an ultrahigh-strength, monolithic material. A motor vehicle component () may be made of the tailored semifinished part ().

Metal sheet or strip for a motor vehicle component

A method for forming a beading fold in a multi-layer composite material, which has at least one core layer made of a plastics material and at least two cover layers made of a metallic material, provides high process reliability and optimal integrity of the formed multi-layer composite material. In particular, the method provides that, in the region of the beading fold to be formed, the core layer of the composite material is heated at least in portions to a temperature of 180&#xb0; C. to 300&#xb0; C. Also described herein is a multi-layer composite material having at least one beading fold, said material comprising at least one core layer made of a plastics material and at least two cover layers made of a metallic material.

Method for forming a crimping fold in a multi-layer composite material and multi-layer composite material having at least one crimping fold

The invention relates to a support device for a curved mirror having support elements and a curved mirror. The objective of providing a support device for a curved mirror which is constructed in a particularly simple manner and which enables particularly low production costs is achieved by a support device in that the support device has at least one bent metal carrier profile-member, the bent carrier profile-member having in the longitudinal direction an at least similar curvature to the curved mirror and being substantially mirror-symmetrical in the longitudinal direction.

Supporting device for a curved mirror

A connector is disclosed for providing a positive and/or a non-positive connection between at least two connecting partners. The connector or connecting means has at least one first region which engages with the first connecting partner by way of a positive and/or a non-positive connection, and at least one second region is provided which engages with the at least second connecting partner by way of a positive and/or a non-positive connection. The connecting means provides a positive and/or non-positive connection between at least two connecting partners in a simple and inexpensive manner and which meets high safety requirements. The second region of the connecting means has a region which is formed from an at least partially flat material made of an Fe alloy with shape memory characteristics and which, when activated, ensures the positive and/or non-positive connection with the second connecting partner by way of a change in shape.
