Abstract: A frame unit for a two-wheeled vehicle may comprise a main frame. The main frame may be formed by a first partial shell and a second partial shell that is joined to the first partial shell. The first partial shell and the second partial shell may be produced from a material comprising steel. The main frame may further comprise an upper tube, a lower tube, a seat tube, and/or a head tube. A rear section may be joined to the main frame and may include a chain stay and/or a seat stay. Further, each of the first and second partial shells may form a lateral half of the main frame, and the first and second partial shells may have a C-shaped cross section. The frame unit avoids the disadvantages of the prior art and offers a high degree of design freedom.

Abstract: A method for producing a large outer paneling part for a movable body part of a motor vehicle such as a door, a front hood, or a tailgate may involve using a forming die to form a large metallic panel part into formed panel part having a three-dimensional shape. A reinforcement made of plastic may be applied to at least a portion of an inside of the formed panel part by back injection molding. In some cases, the metallic panel has a sheet metal thickness of less than 0.6 mm, and in some cases less than 0.5 mm. The formed panel part provided with the at least one plastic reinforcement may be connected to an inner structure produced from metal sheet and/or plastic by folding and/or adhesive bonding the plastic reinforcement.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a floor structure for a motor vehicle with accommodating means for at least two energy storage modules, wherein the accommodating means comprise at least two longitudinal members and at least two cross members. In addition the present invention relates to the use of such a floor structure in a vehicle with an electric and/or internal combustion engine. The technical problem of providing a floor structure that in the event of accidents, in particular side impacts, improves the protection of the batteries in floor structures of vehicles without adversely affecting the weight or the costs, is solved in that the accommodating means have at least one deformation zone with defined deformation behavior between the energy storage modules.

Abstract: The invention relates to a magnetic field shield for electromagnetic fields, preferably in the frequency range of 50 Hz to 200 kHz, essentially comprising a composite sheet formed from at least three layers arranged one above the other, wherein at least one of the layers is made of electrical steel sheet or electrical steel strip. In order to provide at low cost such a magnetic field shield that has low weight and good shielding effect, it is proposed that at least one of the layers is made of sheet steel and at least one of the layers is made of plastic and/or elastomer, wherein the at least one layer made of plastic and/or elastomer integrally bonds together the at least one layer made of electrical steel sheet/electrical steel strip and the at least one layer made of sheet steel.
