Problems solved by technology

However, to date, textile materials have lacked sufficient stiffness and rigidity for use in wheel arch liners (which require durable stiffness)
Furthermore, textiles are generally single-layer thickness, thus presenting a challenge where additional structural stiffness is required only in certain areas

Abstract

A reinforcing spinning wheel arch lining comprises a reinforcing spinning wheel arch lining body, the reinforcing spinning wheel arch lining body comprises a base layer and a reinforcing layer. The base layer and the reinforcing layer at least partially comprise thermal forming textile materials, and the thermal forming textile materials are arranged and bonded to at least one part of the base layer. In a plurality of examples, the base layer and the reinforcing layer are formed independently. In a plurality of further examples, the reinforcing layer can be formed by serving as one part of thebase layer in a single mold, and otherwise the reinforcing layer can be cut down.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates generally to wheel well liners for vehicles, and more particularly describes a wheel well liner constructed at least in part of a thermoformable textile material and including a reinforcement portion. Background technique [0002] The wheel arch liner fits in the vehicle's wheel well below the fender and, from the perspective of an observer looking at the wheel well, extends above and behind the wheel. The wheel arch liner has two main functions: First, it primarily protects the interior and adjacent components of the body from exposure to high speed dirt, debris and road surfaces that can be picked up and thrown by the wheels of a moving vehicle hazard. Similarly, wheel arch liners can be used to contain debris in the event of a flat tire. In the absence of wheel arch liners, when metal or hard plastic body parts are struck by solid debris, the debris can at best create an annoying, loud thud, or at worst damage the bo...
