Abstract: An aggregate space for the battery, wiper motor, relays and similar vehicle aggregates arranged within the area of the engine space of a motor vehicle, which is subdivided from the engine space, properly speaking, by at least one partition wall and is constructed as a space that is closed but readily accessible; the space is also adapted to be vented by inlet and discharge openings which are arranged at special locations to utilize a high pressure drop.

Abstract: A longitudinal bearer constructed as hollow profile of a motor vehicle frame, which is equipped with introduction places for introducing chassis forces into the frame and into the longitudinal bearer and with a longitudinal deformable bearer section arranged outside of the introduction places and dissipating impact energy; the longitudinal bearer section which by reason of different wall thicknesses has a resistance to buckling that increases in the direction toward the vehicle center, is transversely subdivided over its length at least into two bearer pieces connected with each other by circumferential seams; the wall thickness of a respective bearer piece becomes greater and/or the wall quality thereof becomes better in the direction toward the vehicle center from bearer piece to bearer piece than the wall thickness and/or the wall quality of the bearer piece disposed in front thereof.

Abstract: An automatic change-speed transmission for vehicles with a drive connection between a transmission output shaft adapted to be coupled with vehicle wheels and a secondary servo-force generator for the emergency supply of aggregates of the transmission control and shifting system operating with a servo-pressure, which drive connection is adapted to be disconnected by a disengaging mechanism, and with a permanent drive connection between a transmission input shaft adapted to be driven by a driving engine and a primary servo-force generator for the normal supply of the aggregates; a servo-motor for the disengaging mechanism which is adapted to be displaced into a disengaging position disconnecting the secondary servo-force generator from the transmission output shaft is brought into its working position by a control device operating in dependence on the servo-force of the primary servo-force generator when the actual value of the servo-force lies below a necessary operating value.
