A method for welding an add-on part to a component, in particular for a motor vehicle, using the in per se known torsional ultrasonic welding method having a sonotrode for transferring the vibrations generating the welding add-on part has a coupling flange for coupling the vibrations of the sonotrode and the add-on part has coupling elements for coupling the vibrations induced by the sonotrode in the welding region facing the weld interface area of the component, and the coupling elements thereby melt during the welding process and thus weld the add-on part to the component.

Add-on part for connecting to a component by torsional ultrasonic welding

An injection-molded structural component, particularly for automotive front end carriers, with a hollow structural section, the hollow structural section including a section body having a cavity with an opening, a section lid secured to the section body via a hinge and hinge-folded onto the opening, and a fastener element for fastening the section lid to the section body such that the hollow structural section withstands dynamical load.
