  • Patent number: 10703224
    Abstract: A vehicle passenger compartment that defines a vehicle interior delimited in part by a floor, the interior having at least one front row of seats that includes at least two front seats, and at least one rear row of seats that includes at least two rear seats. The front and rear rows of seats are arranged behind one another in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle passenger compartment, each front seat being rotatable around a rotation axis substantially perpendicular to the floor. Each rear seat is translatable in a transverse direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction and to the rotation axis such that the rear seats can be moved away from or closer to one another in the transverse direction.

  • Publication number: 20080233855
    Abstract: The invention concerns a ventilating cross-member, and more precisely it concerns a method for making a ventilating cross-member comprising a metal beam (10) and a duct (16) designed to connect two openings (12, 14) between which it follows a winding path. The method includes making a beam (10) which delimits an enclosing volume for receiving the duct between the two openings (12, 14), making the duct (16) which is specifically reversibly deformable between a working state and a retracted inserting state, placing the duct (16) in its inserting state, inserting the duct (16) in the beam (10) through an opening (12, 14) thereof, and placing the duct (16) in its working state. The invention is applicable to motor vehicles.
