A motor vehicle dashboard crossbeam extends between A posts of the structure of a motor vehicle substantially in a transverse direction of the motor vehicle and includes an end section to be fastened to an A post, an intermediate section, and a fastening opening. The end section has a rectangular cross-section, the intermediate section has a circular cross-section, and the fastening opening extends through the end section and is configured for fastening the end section to the A post.

Motor vehicle dashboard crossbeam

A cross-vehicle beam for a vehicle comprises a tubular portion extending in a longitudinal direction (X), a first brace connected to the tubular portion and intended to be fixed to a windshield lower crossmember of the body of the vehicle, and a second brace connected to the tubular portion and intended to be fixed to a bulkhead of the body of the vehicle. The ends of the first and second braces at the tubular portion are located in the same transverse plane (P) of the tubular portion.

Cross-vehicle beam with hidden brace for motor vehicle

A motor vehicle dashboard crossbeam includes a tubular beam provided to extend between the A posts of the structure of the motor vehicle substantially in a transverse direction of the motor vehicle and a first and second fastening opening in the longitudinal direction, the first opening being formed through the beam and the second opening being formed through a fastening member attached on an end section of the beam. The end section can have a rectangular cross-section.

A motor vehicle dashboard crossbeam includes a tubular beam made in a single piece provided to extend between the A posts of the structure of the motor vehicle substantially in a transverse direction of the motor vehicle and means for fastening a or each end section of the beam on an A post. The fastening means includes a first and second fastening opening in the longitudinal direction, the first opening being formed through the beam. The fastening means also includes a fastening member attached on the end section, the second fastening opening being formed through the fastening member.

A crosspiece for a vehicle dashboard extends in a longitudinal direction and has a first portion and a second portion. The first portion is made of a first material and has a closed cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction and a hollow joining end. The second portion has a main part extending in the longitudinal direction, and a joining part fitted into the joining end of the first portion. The main part has an open cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction that is adapted for demolding in a demolding direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction during manufacture of the second portion of the crosspiece. The joining part has a closed hollow cross-section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction that is adapted for demolding in the longitudinal direction during manufacture of the second portion of the crosspiece.

Crosspiece for vehicle

A sliding console that includes a stationary support, a moving console body, and a connecting device connecting two longitudinal guideways each having a rail and a slide. The sliding connecting device has two moving supports transversely separated from one another and at least two reinforcements separate from one another and separate from the moving supports. The reinforcements are spaced longitudinally apart from one another and fasten the moving supports to one another. The console body is fastened to the reinforcements, with each rail being fastened to one of the moving supports, and the slides being fastened to the stationary support.

The present disclosure relates to a safety device for a vehicle arranged facing an airbag and comprising:

Safety device for vehicle

An instrument panel crossmember for vehicles that have different configurations is intended to extend between two front pillars of a vehicle. The crossmember has a first portion extending opposite the vehicle driving seat. One end of the first portion connects to a front pillar of the vehicle, and another end of the first portion is connected to a fixing device. The fixing device is designed selectively to support a second portion of the crossmember that extends facing the vehicle passenger seat and/or to support a strut designed to connect the crossmember to the floor of the vehicle, depending on the configuration of the vehicle.

Instrument panel crossmember for vehicles that have different configurations

The crossbeam according to the invention comprises at least two sections, each section comprising at least one wall and being assembled to the other section in a junction region so as to form said crossbeam. The walls of said sections are fastened to each other by a weld made by induction brazing.

Dashboard crossbeam comprising at least two sections attached to each other by welding

An assembly includes: two crossbars extending substantially in parallel to each other; and two securing members for securing onto the vehicle body, each securing member being secured to one end of each crossbar so as to connect the two crossbars together. The two securing members are made of the same material as the two crossbars.

Dashboard crossbar assembly for a motor vehicle, and corresponding dashboard device, motor vehicle, and manufacturing method

A tubular dashboard beam () has a circular cross-section and extends transversely between vertical pillars of a motor vehicle. The beam is formed in one piece and has at least two different diameters (d, d, d) between the two ends thereof, a larger diameter (d) of the beam being in the region of an end () of the beam which is intended to be located in the region of a driver's seat of the motor vehicle. At least the end at the driver's seat side which must be fixed to a vertical pillar of the motor vehicle is partially crushed so as to have a cross-section in the form of a circular arc whose chord () which closes the cross-section extends at one side and the other of the circular arc (), providing a planar face whose lateral edges () surround the curved face of the circular arc.

Beam for a motor vehicle dashboard

A motor vehicle instrument panel cross-member () includes a beam () extending substantially along a longitudinal direction and elements () for fixing the beam () on the vehicle structure including at least one plate () provided with a fixing orifice (). The plate () is integral with the beam ().

Motor vehicle dashboard cross-member

The invention concerns the assembly of a cross-member and an instrument panel. The invention concerns an assembly method including assembling a ventilation element () on a cross-member (), and assembling the panel instrument on the cross-member () such that a centering device penetrates into the orifice. The method includes: prior to assembling the ventilation elements () on the cross-member (), arranging thereon a base () of the centering device of reduced height so that it does not obstruct the assembling of the ventilation elements (), and, prior to assembling the instrument panel on the cross-member (), arranging, on the base (), a body of the centering device. The invention is applicable to motor vehicle cockpits.
