20110232806 | SIDE RAIL - A side rail made of sheet steel includes a first region which underwent heat treatment, a second region which is not heat-treated, and a transition zone between the first and second regions. The transition zone is hereby defined by a width which is smaller than or equal to 50 mm. An additional component can be coupled to the side rail to form a side rail assembly. | 09-29-2011 |
20110232808 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A MOTOR VEHICLE COMPONENT, AND A BODY COMPONENT - A method for producing a structural and/or safety-related motor vehicle component having at least one hot-formed and press-hardened part constructed from high-strength steel includes the steps of partially heat-treating a region of the motor vehicle component by heating the region to a heat-up temperature in a temperature range between 500° C. and 900° C.; maintaining the heat-up temperature for a duration of a holding time; and cooling down from the heat-up temperature in one or more phases. A body component constructed as a structural and/or safety-related motor vehicle component from a steel sheet blank that has been hot-formed and press-hardened includes joining flanges and/or coupling locations and/or safety-related parts, wherein the joining flanges, coupling locations and/or safety-related parts are partially heat-treated in several steps with the disclosed method. | 09-29-2011 |
20110233946 | CROSS MEMBER - A cross member made of sheet steel has a first region which underwent heat treatment, a second region which is not heat-treated, and a transition zone between the first and second regions. The transition zone is hereby defined by a width which is smaller than or equal to 50 mm. | 09-29-2011 |
20110233966 | AUTOMOBILE COLUMN - An automobile column, for example an A-column, a B-column, a C-column and/or a D-column, is made of sheet steel. The automobile column has a first region which underwent heat treatment, a second region which is not heat-treated, and a transition zone between the first and second regions. The transition zone is hereby defined by a width which is smaller than or equal to 50 mm. | 09-29-2011 |
20110233968 | TRANSMISSION TUNNEL - A transmission tunnel, in particular for installation in a motor vehicle body, is produced by hot-forming and press-hardening a sheet steel blank, and has a first region which underwent heat treatment, a second region which is not heat-treated, and a transition zone between the first and second regions. The transition zone is hereby defined by a width which is smaller than or equal to 50 mm. At least one component can be coupled to the transmission tunnel to form a floor assembly. | 09-29-2011 |
20110291431 | CRASH BOX, AND METHOD OF MAKING A CRASH BOX - A crash box for installation between a bumper crossbeam and a side rail of a motor vehicle is made from a longitudinal beam made of a steel alloy having the following composition in weight-%, 0.15 to 0.30% of carbon (C), 0.10 to 0.70% of silicon (Si), 1.00 to 2.50% of manganese (Mn), 0.10 to 0.50% of chromium (Cr), 0.02 to 0.05% of titanium (Ti), 0.001 to 0.005% of boron (B), 0.01 to 0.06% of aluminum (Al), up to 0.50% of molybdenum (Mo), max. 0.025% of phosphorus (P), max. 0.015% of sulfur (S), remainder iron (Fe) including impurities resulting from smelting. The longitudinal beam is hot-formed and press-hardened and then heat-treated at a temperature of 200° C. to 800° C., with a material of the longitudinal beam having a bend angle of greater than or equal to 60° after heat treatment and measured in accordance with DIN EN ISO 7438. | 12-01-2011 |
