Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a body of a motor vehicle having a dash panel delimiting the passenger compartment in the direction of travel, a water tank fixed to the dash panel, and a front frame passing through the dash panel from both sides of the bottom area of ​​the passenger compartment in the direction of travel The stringer below the slab, where the water tank is bounded by the dash and bulkheads fastened to the dash. Background technique

[0002] Such a body is known, for example, from DE4424288A1. In such a body, the water tank is arranged directly below the windshield of the car at the uppermost boundary of the dash panel. The bulkhead that delimits the water tank in the direction of travel connects the two strut covers that are arranged on both sides of the body. The disadvantage of this body structure is that it is difficult to arrange a large number of vehicle structural parts in the structural space formed by the water tank, such as hose co...

Embodiment Construction

[0023] figure 1 A partial area of ​​the body is shown with a bulkhead 1 delimiting the passenger compartment in the direction of travel and a front frame 2 . For the sake of illustration, in figure 1 In , the direction of travel is indicated by an arrow. The front frame 2 has two side members 3 facing the direction of travel on both sides of the body and a cross member 4 arranged on the front wall 1 . The wheel mounting plate 5 and the spring strut cover 6 are arranged laterally outside the longitudinal member 3 . The cross member 4 has a bulkhead 7 fastened to the bulkhead 1 . The bulkhead 7 forms a radiator tank 8 together with the dash panel 1 . The spacer 7 extends as far as the wheel mounting plate 5 and is fastened thereto. also, figure 1 It is also shown that the bulkhead 7 has two bulkhead parts 9 , 10 connected to one another in the middle of the vehicle. The partition parts 9 , 10 have a common flange 11 on which they are fastened to each other. A total of tw...
