Abstract: A fastening arrangement with a roof-frame structure of a vehicle and a roof module, the roof-module carrier of which, in the assembled state, is adhesively bonded to an adhesive flange of the roof-frame structure with an interposed adhesive. The roof-module carrier is additionally connected to the adhesive flange of the roof-frame structure by a screw connection in which the roof-module carrier is firmly clamped to the adhesive flange of the roof-frame structure by at least one fastening screw. To avoid contact corrosion and/or to reduce the component weight, the fastening screw is made from plastic.

Abstract: A fabric structure includes a woven polyester fabric and a layer of butyl rubber disposed on the woven polyester fabric. The fabric structure includes a layer of polyacrylonitrile attached to the butyl rubber layer. The fabric structure includes at least one flexible thin-film solar cell element located on the polyacrylonitrile layer. The fabric structure includes a plurality of electrical connecting lines extending between the polyacrylonitrile layer and the butyl rubber layer and connected to the at least one solar cell element. The fabric structure forms part of a device, such as a convertible top, a carport covering, a sun shade, or a boat sail.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a photovoltaically active laminate that includes a cover film, a photovoltaic active solar cell film, and a fiber composite support layer. The cover film defines a top surface of the laminate and is transparent to incident light radiation. The photovoltaic active solar cell film includes a support film and a coating of a photovoltaically active material applied to the support film. The cover film has a thickness in a range up to 1 mm. The solar cell film has a thickness in a range between 0.06 mm and 2 mm. The support layer has a thickness in a range between 0.8 mm and 3 mm.

Abstract: An exterior module of a motor vehicle has an exterior panelling for a modularly constructed housing component. The exterior module has a multilayer construction, which includes an inner surface layer and an outer surface layer with an exterior skin arranged thereon, which forms the exterior panelling. At least the inner surface layer is a thermoplastic FRP surface layer having stiffening elements on the side facing away from the outer surface layer.
