  • Patent number: 9387609
    Abstract: A method of producing a composite component, in which a hollow section is expanded, at least in regions, by internal high pressure. In a first step a region of the hollow section is expanded until it comes to lie against an edge region of a cavity of a combined hydroforming and injection mold. In a second step the cavity is filled with an injection molding compound. In a third step the hollow section, at least in regions, is expanded further, which increases the internal high pressure.

  • Publication number: 20150284035
    Abstract: A method for the production of a crossmember arrangement for a motor vehicle involves providing the crossmember from a thermoplastic fiber-reinforced plastic tube. The fiber-reinforced plastic tube is heated at at least one joint for the attachment structure. The fiber-reinforced plastic tube is inserted, together with the attachment structure arranged on the joint, into an injection molding tool. A support pressure is applied in the interior of the fiber-reinforced plastic tube. The fiber-reinforced plastic tube is pressed in with the attachment structure. The joint is insert molded with a plastic structure.

  • Patent number: 9090007
    Abstract: In a method and apparatus for producing a composite component comprising a hollow profile and at least one injection-molded element, a hollow profile (3) is formed by means of internal high pressure fluid forming and is encapsulated with an injection molding material to form the injection-molded element. The hollow profile is expanded by means of internal high pressure in a closed combination tool comprising an internal high pressure forming tool element and an injection molding tool element, before it is encapsulated. The hollow profile is pressed on the tool engraving only locally in the region of the location to be encapsulated, keeping the outlet of the injection molding channel opening into the tool engraving clear.

  • Publication number: 20140319879
    Abstract: A method for the production of a hollow profile, which is a cockpit cross-member for a motor vehicle, involves braiding endless fibers around a core that forms the inner contour of the hollow profile to produce a fibrous hollow structure. After the braiding, the fibrous hollow structure is, in the elastic state, removed from the core in a non-destructive manner, molded into an end contour by application of internal pressure and overmolded with a plastic.

  • Publication number: 20140190445
    Abstract: A control housing module (1) for a combustion engine, with integrating and/or connecting and/or receiving structures for auxiliary components (2,3,4,5,6,7,8) and a rib structure. The control housing module (1) consists of a fibre-plastic composite, which has at least one insert (10) made from a flat fibre textile in a thermoplastic matrix. The rib structure made from injected reinforcing ribs (11,11a) is formed of a thermoplastic, which has short fibres made of a reinforcing material with a proportion by volume of at least 30%. The ribbing (11,11a) includes rib structures (11a) arranged according to the direction of force and regularly formed longitudinal, transverse and/or diagonal reinforcing ribs (11) that cross one another. A foam material is arranged in the spaces (13) between the ribs, the spaces being bordered by the ribs (11,11a).
