  • Publication number: 20240083508
    Abstract: A body for an electrically operable motor vehicle, includes a vehicle floor, which has a floor element arranged above an energy storage device and, in the region of the end of the floor element, at least one fastening point of the body for a support element is provided. In the event of an accident-induced load introduction of a corresponding force in the region of the fastening point, in order to prevent accompanying damage to the energy storage device, the floor element has a deformation region that can be intentionally deformed away from the energy storage device when the accident-induced force is introduced at the fastening point of the body for the support element.

  • Publication number: 20220281305
    Abstract: The invention relates to a component assembly for a crash zone (C) of a motor vehicle, comprising a retaining device (11) having at least one retaining element (12), by means of which at least one component (13, 14) is retained. In order to both arrange the at least one component (13, 14) to most advantageously utilise the available installation space and to guarantee an arrangement of said component (13, 14) that is secure against damage, said component is retained by means of of the retaining element (12) in the region of the crash zone (C) of the motor vehicle in a fixed position, wherein the retaining element (12) has at least one flexible region (19, 20) with which the component (13, 14) can be shifted out of the fixed position into an avoidance position in the event of an accident-related application of force.

  • Publication number: 20220258586
    Abstract: An energy store-floor assembly for a motor vehicle includes an electrical energy storage device that has a plurality of battery modules and that is accommodated in a multipart storage housing and arranged on the underside of a vehicle floor of the motor vehicle. In order to provide an energy store-floor assembly for a motor vehicle in which the energy storage device is connected to the motor vehicle bodyshell in an improved manner, the battery modules of the energy storage device are connected to the vehicle floor in a central region of the storage housing by way of a plurality of mechanical connecting elements.

  • Patent number: 8113006
    Abstract: A system for cryogenic storage and delivery of fuel, particularly for supplying an internal-combustion engine driving a motor vehicle, includes at least a cryotank having an inner reservoir for receiving the cryogenic medium, which inner reservoir is held in a heat-insulated manner in an outer reservoir, a coolable cooling shield between the inner reservoir and the outer reservoir of the cryotank, and a heat sink. As a thermal-energy storage device, the heat sink is in heat-transmitting contact with the cooling shield. A filling and removal device has at least one pipe penetrating the outer reservoir and leading into the inner reservoir. At least for the filling with or for the removal of cryogenic medium, the heat sink is in heat-transmitting contact with the pipe for the cryogenic medium, in order to reduce the entry of heat from the environment into the inner reservoir while emitting heat.
