Patent attributes
A lightweight structure for a vehicle, in particular an aircraft, comprises a longitudinal member with a base web, which has a first busbar on a contact surface, and a cross member with a central web and a cross web extending transversely to the central web, the cross web being a first connecting conductor which extends in the area of a first end section of the cross member on a first surface and a second surface of the cross web oriented opposite to this, and a second connection conductor track which extends separately from the first connection conductor track at least on the first surface of the cross web. The cross member extends transversely to the longitudinal member and the cross member is connected at the first end section to the base member in such a way that the first connection conductor track is in contact with the first busbar of the base member. The lightweight structure also includes a flat carbon fiber structure battery connected to the central web of the cross member, a first collector of the carbon fiber structure battery being electrically connected to the first or the second connection conductor track and a second collector of the carbon fiber structure battery being electrically connected to the respective other connection conductor track.
