A positioning apparatus for positioning a tubular fluid container in an elongate carrier which is configured as a hollow profile. In order to simplify the positioning of the tubular fluid container, the positioning apparatus includes spring elements, by way of which the tubular fluid container is positioned in the elongate carrier.

Positioning apparatus

A battery housing of a motor vehicle traction battery includes at least one base plate, and two side walls which extend parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle and are spaced apart from each other in the transverse direction of the motor vehicle. Formed between the side walls is a number of receiving spaces, within each of which at least one battery module of the traction battery of the motor vehicle is accommodated. A plurality of deformation elements which are spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle are attached to the inner sides of the side walls. The battery modules are arranged in the receiving spaces in such a manner that, in the region of the deformation elements, lateral deformation spaces are formed between the battery modules and the side walls.

Battery housing of a traction battery of a motor vehicle

An energy supply system for a motor vehicle, includes a first energy supply and a first housing surrounding the first energy supply. The first housing is fastenable to a first longitudinal member and to a second longitudinal member of a body of the motor vehicle. The first housing is designed for transmitting force from the first longitudinal member to the second longitudinal member and vice versa.

Energy supply system for a motor vehicle

A device for absorbing side forces during a side impact of a motor vehicle has a reinforcing structure () with a transversely extending reinforcing beam (). An end () of the reinforcing beam () is mounted in a bracket () that is fixed to the vehicle. A profile part () is at the end () of the reinforcing beam () and supports the reinforcing beam (). The profile part () is connected firmly to the bracket () that is fixed to the vehicle thereby providing improved side impact protection and enhanced safety for vehicle occupants.

Device for absorbing side forces

For the effective absorption of a side impact in a motor vehicle, a transversely extending component is provided in the vehicle that comprises a bearing element and profile parts situated on the ends thereof.

Device for absorbing lateral forces during a side impact of a motor vehicle

To effectively absorb a side impact in a motor vehicle, a transverse modular unit is provided in the vehicle. This unit includes a beam element and profile parts arranged on ends of the beam element.

Device for absorbing lateral forces in a side impact in a motor vehicle

A deformation element formed of a triangular assembly of interconnected structural channels is mounted in a trunk well in the forward section of a vehicle. In their respective longitudinal directions, the channels incorporate hollow compartments, separated by partitions, which, in the event of a collision, have an impact-energy-absorbing effect.
