Patent number: 10773574Abstract: It is provided a carrier device for a motor vehicle having a base carrier which is substantially formed by an organo sheet and which extends along a main plane. The base carrier has at least one separation on which a material region is molded out from the main plane while forming at least one free space, such that said material region is spaced apart from an adjacent region of the base carrier by at least one portion, wherein the at least one free space is at least partially filled with an injection of thermoplastic material and/or with a separate insert element, such that the portion of the molded-out material region and the adjacent region are connected to one another thereby.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2016Date of Patent: September 15, 2020Assignee: Brose Fahrzeugteile GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 10723206Abstract: A door module for a motor vehicle door having a module carrier which is formed substantially by organic sheet, a longitudinally extending channel which is formed integrally in the organic sheet of the module carrier, an insertion opening which extends along the direction of extent of the channel and via which a reinforcement element of the motor vehicle door is insertable into the channel, and at least one functional element which is fixed to the module carrier and which crosses the channel and thereby partially covers the longitudinally extending insertion opening thereof. In the organic sheet of the module carrier, there is formed an elastically deformable bending region which enables the channel to be bent open at least in sections, and/or enables the channel to be bent away from the functional element, in order to open up the insertion opening of the channel for the insertion of the reinforcement element.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2016Date of Patent: July 28, 2020Assignee: BROSE FAHRZEUGTEILE GMBH & CO.
