Abstract: A removable roof can be positioned between a windshield frame and a rollover hoop of a motor vehicle. The roof is divided in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle to form first and second roof elements. Seal profiles (22, 28, 29) are integrated into edges (13, 15, 16) of the roof elements (12) running in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle to provide sealing of the roof elements (11, 12) with respect to side windows and with respect to one another. The same seal profiles (23, 30) are integrated into the first and second roof elements at edges (27, 29) running transverse to the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle to provide sealing with respect to the rollover hoop (40) and a rear window (39) assigned to the rollover hoop (40).

Abstract: A motor vehicle bodywork has a floor assembly with an upwardly convex and downwardly open longitudinal center tunnel and two side sills parallel thereto. Floor elements are disposed between the longitudinal center tunnel and the side sills. A driver side and a passenger side are each provided with at least one front and one rear seat crossmember, seen in the direction of travel. The seat cross-members extend in the transverse direction of the vehicle and rest on the associated floor elements. It is important that the driver side and/or passenger side seat cross-members are each connected to each other in their upper regions via a plate-like thrust element.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for sterile filling comprises de-contaminating a needle penetrable surface of a device including a needle penetrable septum and a sealed chamber in fluid communication with the needle penetrable septum. A filling needle penetrates the needle penetrable septum, introduces substance through the filling needle and into the chamber and is, in turn, withdrawn from the septum. A liquid sealant is applied to the penetrated region of the septum. Radiation or energy is applied to the liquid sealant to cure the liquid sealant from a liquid phase to a solid phase.
