  • Patent number: 8894132
    Abstract: A three-dimensionally shaped body module component and a method for the production thereof, which is assembled from a plurality of body module segments (1). The body module segments (1) are sections of continuously pultruded fiber plastic composite pultrudates, wherein each pultrudate has a basic structure consisting of endless fibers (20) laid in accordance with the force flux with respect to a predetermined geometry of the component. Furthermore, the basic structure has at least one passage (30) per body module segment (1) for receiving a connecting means (11), so as to connect at least two of the body module segments (1). The fibers (20) laid in accordance with the force flux are laid around the passage (30), and, furthermore, a stabilization structure (40) made from fibers is arranged around it.

  • Patent number: 7540558
    Abstract: A door pillar for a supporting frame structure of a vehicle body has an upper section which extends from a vehicle roof as far as a vehicle side edge, and a lower section which extends from the vehicle side edge in the direction of a vehicle floor. In order to improve the door pillar with regard to loading and weight, it has a pillar body which extends at least in the upper section and is made of iron or iron alloy, and a pillar base which is connected fixedly thereto, extends at least in the lower section, and is made of light metal or light metal alloy.
