Abstract: A closure flap (11) in an outer wall of a vehicle, in particular a coach, for closing an opening in a vehicle, containing a flap element (1) and a reinforcing structure on the flap element (1). A reinforcing structure on the flap element (1) comprises adhesively bonded corner elements (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) which are joined together via longitudinal section parts (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d) to form a frame-type structure.

Abstract: A linear cold connection with connecting places contains a first and a second structural component to join first and second construction elements of a frame for road or rail bound vehicles. First construction elements are attached to the first structural component and second construction elements are attached to the second structural component. The first and second structural components are joined together via a pair of first and second joint faces. The joint faces form a length of arc of a circular cylinder with a common circular-cylinder axis. The first structural element is joined to the second structural element via a bolt-type connection penetrating openings in the first and second joint faces.

Abstract: A vehicle, in particular road or railway vehicle such as tour bus or the like having a skeleton frame comprising side-wall parts containing vertical sections and joining these panel-like floor and roof elements, a roof beam being provided on both sides of the roof element--is such that the structural roof beam is in the form of channel section that is open downwards, and, forming a roof space which opens on the upwards facing side, is fitted to the downwards facing end of the inner flange of the roof beam. Further, both roof beam flanges are joined by transverse rods or plates which are spaced apart from each other and are attached at one end to the downward facing end of the inner roof beam. Vertical sections or columns of the side-wall part are situated opposite holding rails which are attached to the inner channel flange of the roof beam.
