Method for manufacturing an interior lining part and corresponding part

Abstract

A method for manufacturing an interior lining part, includes producing a skin; placing the skin in a foaming mold with a support layer; foaming an intermediate layer; cutting out an area of the skin producing a cutout area of the skin; placing a piece of adhesive tape or film in the cutout area, the piece of adhesive tape or film being placed in between the skin and the intermediate foam layer; and placing an insert in the cut out area of the skin. A method for manufacturing an interior lining part, includes producing a skin by rotational molding; placing a piece of adhesive tape or film in the cutout area, the piece of adhesive tape or film being placed in between the skin and the intermediate foam layer; placing the skin in a foaming mold with a support layer; foaming an intermediate layer; cutting out an area of the skin producing a cutout area of the skin; and placing an insert in the cut out area of the skin.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of equipment parts, more particularly interior trim or lining parts, in particular dashboards of motor vehicles, and its subject matter is a method for the manufacture of such parts and the parts obtained by this method. Background technique [0002] Trim or lining parts referred to in this document are generally of the type comprising a surface skin (usually flexible to the touch), an intermediate layer of foamed or cellular material, and a generally rigid support layer. [0003] In many use cases of such parts, it is desirable to be able to integrate one or more additional surface elements (flush or raised elements) partially or fully embedded in the thickness of the skin, for decorative and / or functional purposes Purpose. [0004] Such demands on some vehicle users and manufacturers create a certain number of implementation difficulties with regard to production methods and means, which relate to aesthetic, techni...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0023] This technical solution produces highly satisfactory aesthetic and quality results, but cannot be used for certain skin molding techniques, such as when the base material is a powder (such as the so-called "slush molding" method) or excessively fluid chemicals (such as PU injection), or when the mold has to be subjected to high temperatures (e.g. "slush molding": 300°C), or when the skin molding mold has to perform prohibitive movements (e.g. rotation for "slush molding") rotation during molding)
