Problems solved by technology

However, these components therefore require a great deal of construction space, which in particular limits the possibility of accommodating a spare wheel or a fuel tank with as large a volume as possible in the rear area of ​​the floor structure
In addition, brackets or rails may restrict the arrangement of the beams, making it very expensive to ensure the required rigidity of the floor structure.

Embodiment Construction

[0024] figure 1 A motor vehicle is shown with a floor structure 1 and front seats 2 and rear seats 3 arranged in the vehicle interior in the direction of travel. The floor structure 1 has wheel arches 4 , 5 for the front wheels 6 and rear wheels 7 and a cavity 8 for a spare wheel 9 .

[0025] figure 2 A perspective view of the floor structure 1 is shown. It can be seen here that the floor structure 1 has a floor 10 and is bounded laterally by longitudinal beams 11 , 12 pointing in the direction of travel. The side members 11 , 12 are located in the region of the rear wheel arches 5 and are thus connected to one another directly behind the rear seats 3 by a cross member 13 . This cross member 13 is thus located in front of the cavity 8 for the spare wheel 9 and has two reinforcing webs 14 , 15 connecting the longitudinal members 11 , 12 to each other. The receiving space 16 for the starter battery 17 is arranged between the reinforcing webs 14 , 15 .

Abstract

A floor structure of a motor vehicle is provided that includes, but is not limited to a mounting for a starter battery in a cross member adjoining wheel arches for rear wheels. The cross member comprises two stiffening webs and is designed tub-shaped between the stiffening webs. Because of this, the starter battery is reliably protected against a crash.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a floor structure for a motor vehicle with longitudinal beams arranged in the direction of travel and laterally delimiting the floor structure, a floor arranged transversely to the direction of travel and connecting the longitudinal beams to one another and mounted on the floor Reinforced lintels on the roof, and wheel arches for the front and rear wheels. Background technique [0002] Such floor structures are frequently used in today's motor vehicles and are known from practice. The reinforcing webs constitute the cross beams, which reinforce the floor structure. The various components to be installed in the vehicle are usually mounted on rails, brackets or the like fixed to the floor. However, these components therefore require a great deal of installation space, which in particular limits the possibility of accommodating a spare wheel or a fuel tank that is as large as possible in the rear region of the floor structure. ...
