  • Structural component
    Patent number: 11358651
    Abstract: A motor vehicle front end having a structural component that has a first structural element for absorbing mechanical forces. The first structural element surrounds a spatial region, at least in part, such that a cavity is formed in the interior of the first structural element. The first structural element has a surface region that defines said cavity. The structural component has at least one second structural element which is connected to the first structural element. For the purpose of mechanical reinforcement of the first structural element, the structural component has at least one reinforcing element. The reinforcing element supports a portion of the surface region. The first structural element is composed of at least two separate structural element parts.
