Abstract: A passenger transport vehicle includes a vehicle body having at least one left passenger compartment arranged in a travel direction on a left side of the vehicle, and at least one right passenger compartment arranged in a travel direction on a right side of the vehicle. Each passenger compartment has at least one passenger space and an access door to permit ingress into and egress from the at least one passenger space. A partition wall is arranged between the at least one left passenger compartment and the at least one right passenger compartment to restrict entry of passengers between the left passenger compartment and the right passenger compartment.

Abstract: A seat module for a motor vehicle that includes a carrier element having at least one seat row upon which at least two seats are secured. Each seat row has walls defining an opening which is accessible from outside of the motor vehicle and which extends laterally as a hollow space into the carrier element. The walls are fixed at least partially peripherally to facilitate raising of the seat module via introduction of a lifting element from outside of the motor vehicle into the hollow space for installation of the seat module into the motor vehicle or removal of the seat module from the motor vehicle.

Abstract: A method for producing a motor vehicle having a body shell that includes a platform composed of metal and a vehicle body composed of metal which is fitted on the platform. The method includes producing, separately from a remainder of the body shell, a main floor module that includes a main floor of the body shell and at least one drive-specific component, and attaching the main floor module to an already dip-coated platform and/or to an already dip-coated vehicle body.

Abstract: A vehicle that includes seat cross-members arranged opposite each other on both sides of a center tunnel defining a space, a battery device as an energy accumulator for an electric drive motor of the vehicle, the battery device including a battery housing which at least partially fills the space in the center tunnel, and a load path optimization component arranged in the battery housing at the space of the center tunnel, to transmit forces laterally from one seat cross-member to the other seat cross-member.

Abstract: A load-bearing structure of a motor vehicle, having hollow profiles and junction elements to connect the hollow profiles. The hollow profiles may be fastened in receptacles of the junction elements, and the junction elements may have a plurality of areal webs in a vehicle vertical direction, at least some of the areal webs forming a framework structure which assists the load path in the respective junction element.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a motor vehicle, and to a correspondingly manufactured motor vehicle having a modular construction in which a substructure and further body modules of the motor vehicle are manufactured independently of one another and are subsequently permanently connected to one another.

Abstract: A method for producing a motor vehicle and a correspondingly produced motor vehicle having a modular construction, in which a substructure and at least one superstructure module are produced independently of one another and are subsequently permanently connected together.

Abstract: An adhesive joint of a first hollow profile to a second hollow profile, and a method of producing such an adhesive joint. The second hollow profile is surrounded in an overlapping region by the first hollow profile, and a core connected to the first hollow profile is arranged in the overlapping region inside the first hollow profile and the second hollow profile. An expandable structural adhesive is arranged between the core and the inner face of the second hollow profile.

Abstract: A hollow profile connection to connect at least two hollow profiles. The connection includes a gusset part, the end pieces of which are insertable into the hollow profiles. At least the end pieces of the gusset part are assigned to the ends of the hollow profiles have a profile formed by webs or ribs. The gusset part and hollow profile are connected to each other by a friction-stir weld which run along the ribs or webs of the gusset part.

Abstract: A hollow profile connection to connect at least two hollow profiles via a gusset plate which makes contact with the end regions of the hollow profiles to be connected, in the outer region thereof. At least the end regions of the hollow profiles in cross-section have a profile formed by webs or ribs. The gusset plate is connected to the at least two hollow profiles via a friction-stir weld which run along the ribs or webs of the at least two hollow profiles.

Abstract: A joint connection of a first hollow profile to a second hollow profile, in which the second hollow profile is surrounded by the first hollow profile in an overlapping region. A core arranged within the first hollow profile and the second hollow profile in the overlapping region, and connected to the first hollow profile, the core having at least one boundary surface arranged parallel and adjacent to an inner side of the second hollow profile, and the core is connected to the inner side of the second hollow profile via an adhesive.

Abstract: A load-bearing structure of a motor vehicle, having hollow profiles and junction elements to connect the hollow profiles. The hollow profiles may be fastened in receptacles of the junction elements, and the junction elements may have a plurality of of areal webs in a vehicle vertical direction, at least some of the areal webs forming a framework structure which assists the load path in the respective junction element.

Abstract: A carbon composite component composed of a plastics-carbon-fibre composite material. The carbon composite component is made up of individual regions, in which at least one ply is composed, in at least a first region, of carbon fibres, and at least one additional region and/or the first region includes a ply which is composed of metal cords which are arranged spaced apart from one another and spatially oriented in at least one direction.

Abstract: A battery housing configured to receive inner portions of a vehicle battery and which is configured to have a at least one vehicle seat directly mounted thereon and/or thereover.
