Abstract
A vehicle frame for powered vehicles with load-bearing sections and on these at least one housing for the upper end of a shock absorber; the housing is made of an extruded alloy, features a cover which is dished upwards, and is made up of a plurality of extruded shaped parts, each of which features shell-shaped sections which are curved in cross-section; projecting from the shell-shaped sections are at least two flange strips which serve as means for attachment to the neighbouring shaped part. The shaped part comprises shell-shaped sections each of which in cross-section is part of a circle and at the ends feature--as viewed in cross-section--flange strips running approximately radial to the central axis (B) of the housing.
