Abstract
A floor module for a motor vehicle having a floor trough, which has, in the area of at least two side edges, at least one contact surface in each case for supporting the floor trough on a support structure component of a motor vehicle body and at least one formfitting device shaped onto the floor trough, by which the floor trough is at least temporarily fastenable on the support structure component.
Claims17
A floor module for a motor vehicle having a support structure component, comprising:
- a floor trough;
- at least one contact surface in an area of at least two side edges, that is configured to support the floor trough on the support structure component;
- and
- at least one formfitting device shaped onto the floor trough by which the floor trough is at least temporarily fastenable on the support structure component.
A floor arrangement of a motor vehicle, comprising:
- at least two support structure components arranged at a distance;
- a floor module, comprising:
- a floor trough;
- at least one contact surface in an area of at least two side edges, that is configured to support the floor trough on the at least two support structure components;
- and
- at least one formfitting device shaped onto the floor trough by which the floor trough is at least temporarily fastenable on the at least two support structure components,
- wherein the floor trough is fastenable to the at least two support structure components with an adhesive provided between a contact surface on the floor trough side and a counter contact surface on a support structure side, and fixable on the at least two support structure components with the at least one formfitting device shaped onto the floor trough until at least a curing of the adhesive.
A method for installing a floor module having a floor trough on support structure components of a motor vehicle, comprising:
- applying an adhesive a contact surface of the support structure components, and connecting the floor module in a formfitting manner to a support structure component, using at least one formfitting device shaped onto the floor trough, until at least a curing of the adhesive.
