A stabilizer bar or stabilizer link in fiber composite construction is of a monolithic construction without fiber interruption. The cross section geometry, the wall thickness, and the fiber orientation vary in axial direction and radial direction such that the requirements defined by the available construction space and the expected loads are fulfilled. The fiber orientation is adjusted axially and radially load-appropriately. The middle section of the stabilizer bar that is primarily torsion-loaded is reinforced with fibers oriented between +/−35° and +/−55° relative to the longitudinal axis and the end members that are primarily bending-loaded are reinforced with fibers oriented between +/−20° and +/−40° relative to the longitudinal axis. In the transitional areas between the middle section and the end members there are transitions between these fiber orientations relatively to the longitudinal axis.

1. Stabilizer bar or stabilizer link in fiber composite construction, with monolithic construction without fiber interruption, wherein the cross section geometry, the wall thickness and the fiber orientation vary in axial direction and radial direction such that requirements defined by available construction space and expected loads acting on the stabilizer bar or stabilizer link are fulfilled and the fiber orientation is adjusted axially and radially load-appropriately, wherein the stabilizer bar or stabilizer link has a middle section that is primarily torsion-loaded and is reinforced with fibers having a first fiber orientation between +/−35° and +/−55° relative to the longitudinal axis and the stabilizer bar or stabilizer link has end members that are primarily bending-loaded and are reinforced with fibers having a second fiber orientation between +/−20° and +/40° relative to the longitudinal axis, wherein the stabilizer bar or stabilizer link has and in the transitional areas between the middle section and the end members and in the transitional areas there are transitions between the first and second fiber orientations relatively to the longitudinal axis. 2. Stabilizer bar or stabilizer link according to claim 1, wherein the middle section has a circular cross section with a diameter and a wall thickness course wherein the diameter and the wall thickness vary in axial direction of the middle section and are adapted to the load acting on the middle section as well as the position of load introduction elements provided on the middle section, wherein the end members have a cross sectional shape and a wall thickness that are adapted to the bending load as well as the connection for the wheel suspension, and the transitional areas have a cross-sectional shape and a wall thickness that are adapted to the combined torsion and bending load. 3. Stabilizer bar or stabilizer link according to claim 1, further comprising textile inserts that, for adapting the wall thickness, are introduced at defined load areas and/or at bending areas and/or at load introduction elements. 4. Stabilizer bar or stabilizer link according to claim 1, wherein load introduction and/or connecting elements for the wheel suspension are embodied from fiber composite material and are formed without fiber interruption. 5. Stabilizer bar or stabilizer link according to claim 1, wherein load introduction and/or connecting elements for the wheel suspension are introduced in the form of metallic bearing elements and/or bushings into the fiber composite material by material fusing and/or by form fit. 6. The stabilizer bar according to claim 1 in the form of driver's cab suspensions and chassis of rail vehicles. 7. The stabilizer bar or stabilizer link according to claim 1, wherein the fiber application is reinforced or decreased for adapting the wall thickness at defined load areas and/or at bending areas and/or at load introduction elements. 8. Method for manufacturing a stabilizer bar or stabilizer link according to claim 1, comprising: a) generating a preformed blank by applying fibers on a straight, elastic and contoured core,b) forming the preformed blank together with the core to a bent geometry,c) inserting the preformed blank with bent geometry of step b) into a closed original mold/forming tool shaped in accordance with the bent geometry,d) joining the fibers with a matrix material to a laminate,e) compressing the laminate by filling in an expanding material into the core to a final contourf) and afterwards removing the compressed laminate from step e) from the original mold/forming tool. 9. Method according to claim 8, further comprising the step of supplying to the fibers a thermosetting matrix material in liquid state by an infiltration process in the closed original mold/forming tool. 10. Method according to claim 8, wherein as a preformed blank in step a) or as a laminate in step e), the load introduction elements and/or the connecting elements for the wheel suspension (4) and/or the interfaces for the attachment of separate load introduction elements and/or connecting elements for the wheel suspension are formed, as well as metallic bearing elements and/or back bearings are integrated into the fiber composite material by material fusing and/or by form fit. 11. Method according to claim 8, wherein the application of the fibers on the core according to step a) in an endless process is done such that the desired fiber orientation is adjusted only at the end of the forming process. 12. The method according to claim 8, further comprising the step of integrating a solid thermoplastic matrix material in the form of threads into the fiber layers during fiber application onto the core.
