Abstract

An air vent is configured to discharge two separate volumetric flows of air in respectively different and intersecting discharge directions. A perceived air discharge direction is adjustable with no change to the intersecting discharge directions. A first volumetric flow of air exits the first air duct in a first direction, and a second volumetric flow of air exits the second air duct in a second direction that intersects the first direction so that the volumetric flows of air collide after exiting airducts of the air vent. A non-visible vane located along one of the air ducts is moveable to change the perceived air discharge direction.

Abstract

An air vent includes a housing, first and second air ducts, a first vane, and a set of vanes. The air ducts convey respective volumetric flows of air through the housing so that each volumetric flow exits the respective air duct in a different intersecting direction so that the flows of air collide after exiting the air ducts. A vane located along one of the air ducts is moveable to vertically change a perceived air discharge direction. A set of vanes includes at least one vane located in each air duct and is moveable to horizontally change the perceived air discharge direction.

Abstract

A molding tool and method for producing an interior trim part. A cavity is embodied between a first element and a second element, and a slide is displaceably connected to the first element. A decorative layer is arranged on the first element and a backing is arranged on the second element. A foamable mixture is added to the hollow area between the backing and a reverse side of the decorative layer, such that a foam layer fills the hollow area. A distance between the first element and the second element is increased to enlarge the hollow area. During this process, the slide is pressed against a side facing away from the reverse side of the decorative layer, such that the hollow area is sealed with the reverse side of the decorative layer pressed against a lateral surface of the backing and/or against a lateral surface of the second element.

Abstract

A device for manufacturing inner trim elements which are formed by a rigid carrier and a cover layer, between which elements a polymer foam layer is arranged. The carrier is fixable on a first molding tool element, and the cover layer is fixable between the outer edge of the first molding tool element and the outer edge of a second molding tool element. In the molding tool, a cavity is formed between the carrier and the cover layer, wherein a foamable polymer is introducible into the cavity via at least one through-hole which is formed in the carrier and the first molding tool element. The distance between the first and the second molding tool element is enlargeable during the foaming process. At least one through-hole for an escape of air and reactively formed gases out of the cavity is formed in the carrier and in the first molding tool element.

An inner lining part for the interior of a motor vehicle, wherein the inner lining part has a carrier part, which comprises a curvature section, with a curvature running along a longitudinal direction of the carrier part. The curvature section includes a carrier part groove running in the longitudinal direction. A decorative layer overlies a first surface of the carrier part and forms a visible face of the inner lining part. The decorative layer covers the carrier part groove, thereby forming a decorative layer groove on the visible face of the inner lining part. Recesses in one or more portions of the carrier part at the carrier part groove receive folds or thickenings of the decorative layer to thereby permit the visible face of the decorative layer at the decorative layer groove to match the curvature of the curvature section at carrier side regions located adjacent the groove.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing interior lining parts in a foaming tool, to an interior lining part produced accordingly, and to a foaming tool which can be used for production. The interior lining part has at least one molded skin, at least one foam layer and at least one carrier, the foam layer being located between the molded skin and the carrier. In order to produce an interior lining part according to the invention, the molded skin is introduced into a mold of a foaming tool. The foaming tool contains at least one separating edge. During back-foaming, the carrier is pressed against the molded skin at the position of the separating edge and connected to said molded skin such that a molded skin end can be severed manually, that is without the aid of tools, from the molded skin or is severed by the pressing step.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for producing interior lining parts in a foaming tool, to an interior lining part produced accordingly, and to a foaming tool which can be used for production. The interior lining part has at least one molded skin (1), at least one foam layer and at least one carrier (5), the foam layer being located between the molded skin (1) and the carrier (5). In order to produce an interior lining part according to the invention, the molded skin (1) is introduced into a mold (7) of a foaming tool. The foaming tool contains at least one separating edge (8). During back-foaming, the carrier (5) is pressed against the molded skin (1) at the position of the separating edge (8) and connected to said molded skin such that a molded skin end (2) can be severed manually, that is without the aid of tools, from the molded skin (1) or is severed by the pressing step.
