Abstract: An airflow deflector (5) guides the airflow (6) between a towing machine (1) and a transported unit (4, 32) adjoining the towing machine (1) in the travel direction (F) and is coupled with a setting system (7) for adjusting the orientation of the airflow deflector as needed. To ensure an optimal position of the airflow deflector at all times without human interference even when transported units of different external geometrical configurations are utilized, geometrical data (11) on the external geometry and/or positional data (12) are assigned to the transported unit (4, 32). This data, at least in case of a replacement of the transporting unit (4, 32) may be called up or read and forwarded to a control unit (21) that converts the geometrical and/or positional data into setting commands for the setting system (7) to adjust the airflow deflector (5).

Abstract: A structural assembly for a cockpit of a motor vehicle comprising a crossmember which extends over the width of a vehicle interior and is designed as a supporting structure. The crossmember and a dashboard attached thereto are constructed from a driver's module, a central module and a front passenger's module. The modules are designed so that adjacent modules can be fastened to one another, either both indirectly via an adapter part directly. By an appropriate selection (or elimination) of the adapter parts the crossmember and the dashboard can be adapted to different vehicle widths. When assembled, the crossmember and the dashboard form a pre-assembled, self-supporting reinforcement unit which, when installed in the motor vehicle, reinforces the motor vehicle in the transverse direction.
