[0002] At present, the components of vehicle interior molding are mainly used in seat covers, and are generally formed by molding molding sewing process. Usually, it is necessary to pre-sew the molding (also called trim) with one layer of skin, and then sew the other layer of skin with trim strip for the second time, and finally sew it into a skin cover and then cover it, so as to form the appearance of trim.
[0003] With the popularity of vehicle interior moldings, it is becoming more and more common to use moldings in other interior areas of the car to change the shape of the entire vehicle interior.

[0029] The technical solution of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0032] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 3 The figure shows a specific implementation of the interior trim molding structure provided by the present invention, which is used in vehicle interior trim, such as the upper surface area of the vehicle operating panel interior trim.
[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the interior trim molding structure includes a first frame 10, a second frame 20, and at least one molding molding part 30; wherein the outer surface of the first frame 10 has a step surface 13 and is divided into a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 by the step surface 13, and the second surface 12 is lower than the first surface 11; the molding molding part 30 is connected to the second surface 12 of the first frame 10 and is spaced apart from the step surface 13; the second frame 20 is connected to the second surface 12 of the first frame 10 and is spaced apart from the molding molding part 30; and also includes a covering part 40 covering the outer surfaces of the first frame 10, the molding molding part 30 and the second frame 20, and the outer contour of the covering part 40 matches the outer contour of the outer surfaces of the first frame 10, the molding molding part 30 and the second frame 20.
[0035] The above-mentioned interior molding structure is formed by connecting the molding molding part 30 and the second frame 20 on the second surface 12 of the first frame 10, and covering the outer surface with a covering part 40, so as to form an interior molding with a molding shape. The first frame 10, the molding molding part 30 and the second frame 20 can all be made of light-resistant and heat-resistant materials, such as plastic, to reduce material costs. At the same time, the development cost of the coating process is relatively low.
[0036] Specifically, in an optional implementation manner, Figure 3 As shown, the molding 30 is a protrusion integrally formed on the first frame 10; more specifically, the protrusion can be flexibly changed according to the shape of the interior decoration. For example, if the molding 30 is required to have a large rounded corner, it can be achieved by increasing the rounded corner on the injection mold or selecting a thicker covering member 40, which is highly flexible. In other alternative embodiments, the molding 30 can also be connected to the second surface 12 of the first frame 10 by bonding, clamping or fastening.
[0037] Specifically, the molding structure of the covering member 40 is not unique; in an optional embodiment, the covering member 40 is an integrated covering member 40, which is entirely covered on the surface of the first frame 10, the molding member 30 and the upper exposed area of the second frame 20. Since the shapes of some vehicle interior parts are relatively complex, for example, some areas of the first frame 10 and the second frame 20 have bending areas, it is difficult for the integrated covering member 40 to be evenly covered thereon. Therefore, in another optional embodiment, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the covering member 40 includes a first covering member 41 covering the first surface 11 and the step surface 13 of the first frame 10, a second covering member 42 covering at least the outer surface of the molding 30, and a third covering member 43 covering at least the exposed surface of the second frame 20.
[0038] More specifically, the molding structure of the second covering member 42 is not unique. In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the second covering member 42 only covers the outer surface of the protrusion of the molding 30; the partial area of the second covering member 42 close to the step surface 13 of the first frame 10 abuts against the area covered by the first covering member 41 on the step surface 13, and the partial area of the second covering member 42 close to the second frame 20 abuts against the partial area of the third covering member 43. In another embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the second covering member 42 not only covers the raised outer surface of the molding molding 30 , but also extends a certain length along the second surface 12 on a side close to the second frame 20 , so that the second covering member 42 can cover the molding molding 30 more reliably.
[0039] More specifically, the structure of the third covering member 43 covering the outer surface of the second frame 20 is not unique; in one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the third covering member 43 only covers the exposed upper surface of the second frame 20 and the side surface opposite to the molding member 30. In another embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the third covering member 43 covers the entire outer surface of the second frame 20 .
[0040] Specifically, the first covering member 41 and the second covering member 42 are sewn together and covered on the outer surfaces of the first frame 10 and the molding 30 , and the third covering member 43 is covered on the outer surface of the second frame 20 and a part of the third covering member 43 contacts the second covering member 42 .
[0041] In a specific implementation manner, Figure 2 As shown, the molding molding parts 30 are provided in two, wherein the second covering part 42 covers the raised outer surfaces of the two molding molding parts 30 and extends a certain length along the second surface 12 on the side close to the second frame 20 so that the second covering part 42 can cover the molding molding parts 30 more reliably.
[0042] Specifically, the upper surface of the molding 30 is higher than the first surface 11 of the first frame 10 and the upper surface of the second frame 20 to form a more obvious molding shape.
[0043] The first frame 10 and the second frame 20 are plastic parts, and the covering part 40 is made of a variety of materials and combinations, such as PVC, leather, PU, cloth and other flexible materials. The thickness of the first covering part 41, the second covering part 42 and the third covering part 43 are consistent to improve the overall appearance of the interior decoration.
[0044] The present invention also provides a specific implementation of a molding process for an interior trim molding structure, which includes the following steps:
[0045] S1. Forming a first frame 10 by a mold, wherein the outer surface of the first frame 10 has a step surface 13 and is divided into a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 by the step surface 13, the second surface 12 is lower than the first surface 11, and a molding 30 is integrally formed on the second surface 12, and the molding 30 is spaced apart from the step surface 13;
[0046] Specifically, the first frame 10 is a plastic part, and the first frame 10 having the inlay molding part 30 is molded by an injection mold; the process cost can be reduced by directly integrally molding the inlay molding part 30 on the first frame 10. Compared with the inlay molding part 30 connected by other methods such as bonding or clamping, the integral molding method can improve the connection strength of the inlay molding part 30.
[0047] S2. The inner side of the covering member 40 is sprayed with glue and dried, and coated on the first surface 11 of the first frame 10, the molding molding 30 and a portion of the second surface 12;
[0048] Specifically, Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the covering member 40 includes a first covering member 41 covering the first surface 11 and the step surface 13 of the first frame 10, and a second covering member 42 covering the outer surface of the molding 30 and a partial area of the second surface 12. The first covering member 41 and the second covering member 42 are sewn together and covered on the first surface 11 of the first frame 10, the molding 30 and a partial area of the second surface 12.
[0049] Specifically, the outer surface of the first frame 10 is sprayed with glue and dried, the back surfaces of the sewn first covering part 41 and the second covering part 42 are sprayed with glue and dried, the covering part 40 and the first frame 10 are manually bonded and placed in a hot pressing mold. After the mold is closed, the glue is activated so that the covering part 40 is coated on the first frame 10.
[0050] Specifically, when the outer surface of the first frame 10 is a straight surface or a nearly straight surface, the hot pressing mold can be hot pressed using two opening molds arranged opposite to each other. For example, the hot pressing mold includes a first mold A1 supporting the lower side of the first frame 10 and a second mold A2 for hot pressing the upper side of the first frame 10; Figure 3 , Figure 4When the outer surface of the first frame 10 includes a bending surface, the hot pressing mold includes a first mold A1 for supporting the lower side of the first frame 10, and at least two second molds A2 for hot pressing the covering member 40 to the outer surface of the first frame 10, wherein the hot pressing directions of each of the second molds A2 are different. For example, different numbers of second molds A2 can be selected according to the size of the bending angle, such as Figure 4 As shown, when the bending angle is an obtuse angle, two second molds A2 can be selected, wherein one second mold A2 covers the area where the first surface 11 of the first skeleton 10 is located, and the bottom surface of its mold cavity matches the first surface 11 of the first skeleton 10; the other second mold A2 covers the fillet molding 30 of the first skeleton 10 and a partial area of the second surface 12, and the bottom surface of its mold cavity matches the second surface 12 of the first skeleton 10 and the fillet molding 30, which can make the covering fit of different areas of the outer surface of the first skeleton 10 higher.
[0051] S3. Forming the second frame 20 by a mold, and covering the outer surface of the second frame 20 with the covering member 40;
[0052] Specifically, the second frame 20 is a plastic part, and the second frame 20 is formed by an injection mold; the third covering part 43 is covered on the entire outer surface of the second frame 20 by using a conventional covering process.
[0053] S4. Connect the second frame 20 having the covering member 40 to the second surface 12 of the first frame 10 and abut against the molding member 30 .
[0054] Specifically, the second frame 20 covered with the third covering member 43 can be fixed to the second surface 12 of the first frame 10 by means of clamping, bonding or fastening, and one side of the second frame 20 is abutted against the second covering member 42 on the molding molding member 30. Compared with the method of integrally forming the molding molding member 30 and the second frame 20 on the first frame 10 and then covering them, the first frame 10 covered with the covering member 40 and the second frame 20 covered with the covering member 40 are connected by means of clamping, bonding or fastening, which can further reduce the process difficulty, make the covering effect of the covering member 40 better, and improve the molding effect of the overall exterior decoration.
[0055] The present invention also provides a specific embodiment of a vehicle, which includes the interior trim molding structure described above, which will not be described in detail here.
[0056] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples for the purpose of clear explanation, and are not intended to limit the implementation methods. For those skilled in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation methods here. However, the obvious changes or modifications derived therefrom are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
