Embodiment Construction

[0020] FIG. 1 shows a body panel component 10 in the form of a roof module in a mounted state to a vehicle. The body panel member 10 may also be a fender, a door, or a cover (hood, trunk lid) of a vehicle.

[0021] The basic structure of a body panel component is shown in FIG. 4 .

[0022] The body panel part 10 has an outer layer, which is visible from the outside in the mounted state of the vehicle and is formed from a thin, transparent sheet 12 which is reshaped by heat treatment. The plate 12 is made of a transparent or translucent plastic material and has a front side 14 and a rear side 16 which are visible from the outside in the assembled state. Certain areas on the rear side of the panel 12 are provided with at least one transparent or translucent panel 18 (two shown) which are inherently rigid panels or made of glass. Panel 18 is, for example, glued to board 12 .

[0023] In those areas on the rear side 16 of the board 12 where no panel 18 is applied, the board 12 ...

Abstract

A method of manufacturing a vehicle body panel part includes reshaping a transparent sheet that serves as an outer skin, where the transparent sheet has a front side and a rear side, and applying a panel onto some areas of the rear side of the transparent sheet. The panel is made of a transparent or translucent material and has a protective layer on its rear side. A wet application of a paint is provided onto the rear side of the transparent sheet to form a coloring layer. The transparent sheet is provided with a foamed backing on the rear side, at least in areas in which the transparent sheet is not covered by the panel, to form a foamed layer. The invention further relates to a vehicle body panel part and to an intermediate product obtained in manufacturing the vehicle body panel part.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a body panel component and to such a body panel component. The invention further relates to an intermediate product obtained in the manufacture of body panel components. Background technique [0002] A body panel component is mounted to the vehicle body. They delimit at least sections of the outer skin of the vehicle in the final assembled state, and these body panel parts are visible from the outside. Body panel components can be panels (doors, visors), bumpers or roof modules (other components are also possible). There are body panel components comprising glass fiber reinforced PU material, for example glass fibers are infused into the plastic material in the so-called LFI process (long fiber infusion). In this process, a deep-drawn solid swatch made of plastic material or aluminum is placed in a foam mould, and the deep-drawn solid swatch is provided with a foam backing. The solid base s...
