Patent number: 10821635Abstract: A molding tool and method for producing an interior trim part. A cavity is embodied between a first element and a second element, and a slide is displaceably connected to the first element. A decorative layer is arranged on the first element and a backing is arranged on the second element. A foamable mixture is added to the hollow area between the backing and a reverse side of the decorative layer, such that a foam layer fills the hollow area. A distance between the first element and the second element is increased to enlarge the hollow area. During this process, the slide is pressed against a side facing away from the reverse side of the decorative layer, such that the hollow area is sealed with the reverse side of the decorative layer pressed against a lateral surface of the backing and/or against a lateral surface of the second element.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2017Date of Patent: November 3, 2020Assignee: Faurecia Innenraum Systeme GmbHInventors: Bernhard Baumann, Hugo Bonvalet, Othmane Faik, Lionel Hafer, Alain Julien, Jean Ruiz, Michael Walter

Patent number: 10744961Abstract: A trim element includes a body defining an outer surface of the trim element, at least part of the body being deformable and having a deformable guide surface extending in a first direction. The trim element further includes at least one actuating element having an actuating segment extending non-rectilinearly in the first direction. The actuating segment cooperates with the guide surface in an actuating area, the guide surface adopting the shape of the actuating segment in the actuating area. The actuating segment is movable relative to the body in the first direction such that the actuating area is movable and the body deforms when the actuating element is moved in the first direction.Type: GrantFiled: September 11, 2018Date of Patent: August 18, 2020Assignee: FAURECIA INTERIEUR INDUSTRIEInventors: Bruno Dinant, Othmane Faik, Hugo Bonvalet

Patent number: 10696578Abstract: The present application relates to a method for fabricating a vehicle interior trim part. The proposed method comprises the step of providing a glass panel with a backside and a first and a second region. In a further step, a first stiffener is attached to the first region of the glass panel. Thereby, a stiffened region of the glass panel is formed. The method further comprises the step of bending the second region of the glass panel by cold forming so that a bent region of the glass panel is formed in a region adjacent to the stiffened region. The method further comprises the step of holding the glass panel in shape using a means of fixation.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2017Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: FAURECIA INNENRAUM SYSTEME GMBHInventors: Othmane Faik, Stephen Bellagamba

Patent number: 10688700Abstract: This document relates to a molding tool for forming and back-injecting a bendable sheet including a mold that includes a first mold half and a second mold half. The first half is arranged opposite the second half forming a cavity for receiving the bendable sheet and a melt. Further, the mold includes at least one pin for holding the bendable sheet and the pin is retractable in response to a force exerted on the pin by a pressure of the injected melt during back injection.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 2017Date of Patent: June 23, 2020Assignee: FAURECIA INNENRAUM SYSTEME GMBHInventors: Othmane Faik, Stephen Bellagamba

Patent number: 10414075Abstract: A device for manufacturing inner trim elements which are formed by a rigid carrier and a cover layer, between which elements a polymer foam layer is arranged. The carrier is fixable on a first molding tool element, and the cover layer is fixable between the outer edge of the first molding tool element and the outer edge of a second molding tool element. In the molding tool, a cavity is formed between the carrier and the cover layer, wherein a foamable polymer is introducible into the cavity via at least one through-hole which is formed in the carrier and the first molding tool element. The distance between the first and the second molding tool element is enlargeable during the foaming process. At least one through-hole for an escape of air and reactively formed gases out of the cavity is formed in the carrier and in the first molding tool element.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2017Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: FAURECIA INNENRAUM SYSTEME GMBHInventors: Bernhard Baumann, Hugo Bonvalet, Othmane Faik, Lionel Hafer, Alain Julien, Jean Ruiz, Michael Walter
