Abstract: An arm rest arrangement for a motor vehicle is provided. The arm rest arrangement includes an arm rest. The arm rest has a receptacle device displaceable between a retracted position and an extended position in a displacing direction. An arm rest carrier is arranged upon the arm rest. The arm rest is displaceable relative to the arm rest carrier between an initial position and a final position in an adjusting direction that is equidirectional to the displacing direction.

Abstract: A door impact beam for a motor vehicle includes a pot-shaped member made from a metal sheet and extending over a major part of a length of the beam to define two legs and a bridge interconnecting the legs. The bridge has a central length portion which is formed with an embossment defined by a depth, with a ratio of the depth of the embossment to a height of the pot-shaped member in midsection ranging between 1:3 and 1:6. The pot-shaped member has side flanges extending transversely from lower longitudinal edges of the legs in the central length portion.

Abstract: In a method of making a hybrid structure, at least one support body is fixed in a tube component which is then placed in an injection molding tool. An injection-molded part is injection-molded to an outer surface of the tube component in an area of the support body. As a result, the tube component is inwardly deformed, when regions adjacent to the support body are exposed to an injection pressure, and forms indentations for engagement of the injection-molded part.

Abstract: A motor vehicle includes a compressed-gas tank which is disposed in a wheel well of a spare wheel. The compressed-gas tank has a circular-cylindrical configuration defined by an axis of rotation and includes tie elements in parallel relationship to the axis of rotation.

Abstract: A dashboard for a motor vehicle includes a support beam extending between windshield pillars of a motor vehicle body, and an active arrangement which interacts with the support beam for vibration damping. The active arrangement includes plural actuators which are disposed on the support beam and a controller which is operatively connected to the actuators. Further provided is an alert system for recognizing a fatigue state of a driver, with the actuators operatively connected to the alert system via the controller.

Abstract: A dashboard support for a motor vehicle, includes a support beam extending between windshield pillars of a motor vehicle body. Associated to the support beam is an active arrangement, which includes ceramic piezoelectric elements and a controller operatively connected to the piezoelectric elements, for implementing a vibration damping.
