WO2005025907 A UPAB: 20050422 NOVELTY - Device for protecting the occupants of a motor vehicle in the event of a side impact or a collision similar to a side impact comprises at least one unit that stabilizes the motor vehicle door (1) against energy that is exerted in a lateral direction and has at least one side impact support (8) lying in and passing through the vehicle door. In the event of a collision, the side impact support interacts with at least two support regions inside stable bodywork areas that surround the vehicle door. The side impact support and/or the support regions have at least one actuator which can be activated by the controlled supply of an energy form that is independent of the energy that occurs as a result of the collision to initiate the controlled interaction between the side impact support and the support regions. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - An INDEPENDENT CLAIM is also included for a process for improving the protection of the occupants of a motor vehicle in the event of a side impact or a collision similar to a side impact. USE - For protecting the occupants of a motor vehicle in the event of a side impact or a collision similar to a side impact. ADVANTAGE - Deformation energy acting on the vehicle door in the event of a collision is guided away from the region of the vehicle door in a targeted and reliable manner.
