Door of motor vehicle, providing better side impact resistance and more room for interior equipping

摘要

The modular support(4) and functional elements supported by it are located in the inner cavity(2) formed by the inside door panel(1) and the inner trim(3). The outside door panel(5) and inside panel form an encompassing stiffening frame(6), and the inside panel lies upon the outside panel, in areas at least, inside the surface bordered by the stiffening frame. The outside and inside door panels enclose at least one box-form horizontally extending reinforcing section(7) which is connected to the encompassing stiffening frame to form an overall static system.
