Connecting element for vehicle, has profile, which provides stiffness between joints, where stiffness varies in longitudinal direction

摘要

#CMT# #/CMT# The connecting element (1) has a profile (2) extending in a longitudinal direction (20), where an inner space is partially surrounded by walls (12) with two opposite side walls (14). Two joints (3,4) are interconnected by the profile, where the side walls are provided with reinforcements. The profile provides a stiffness between the joints, where the stiffness varies in the longitudinal direction. The reinforcements are designed such that the profile has the highest rigidity in the center or in the region between the joints. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Connecting element for a vehicle. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The profile provides a stiffness between the joints, where the stiffness varies in the longitudinal direction, and hence ensures manufacturing the connecting element with less material. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a schematic longitudinal sectional view of a connecting element. 1 : Connecting element 2 : Profile 3,4 : Ball joints 12 : Walls 14 : Opposite side walls 20 : Longitudinal direction.
