Patent attributes
A dashboard carrier for a motor vehicle with a first hollow carrier profile and a second hollow carrier profile. The two carrier profiles are aligned in the longitudinal extension of the dashboard carrier, arranged at a distance from one another, and connected to one another by a carrier connector spanning the distance between the two carrier profiles. The carrier connector connects the two carrier profiles to one another eccentrically and asymmetrically in relation to the longitudinal axis of the carrier profiles. The carrier connector has an attachment portion on each end side thereof and a carrier portion which connects the attachment portions. The carrier connector is connected, with its attachment portions, to a respective circumferential portion of the lateral surface of the two carrier profiles. The carrier portion is arranged radially on or outside an imaginary lateral surface connecting the lateral surfaces of the two carrier profiles, and thus the space located between the mutual-facing ends of the carrier profiles is usable as an installation space for an assembly or component of the vehicle.
