Abstract: Apparatus for transferring at least one component portion of an at least partially undercut injection molded plastic component, particularly a window frame trim component, from a first state, in which the at least one component portion has a geometric deviation from a component-specific reference state, to a second state, in which the at least one component portion has no geometric deviation from the component-specific reference state.

Abstract: Method for producing a plastic component by an injection moulding process, which plastic component comprises a main body that includes at least one component section being a predetermined breaking region having a wall thickness smaller than the other sections of the main body. The method comprises: injecting a plasticized plastic compound into a mould cavity of an injection mould for forming the main body, the mould cavity being dimensioned so the region on the main body in which the component section is to be formed is formed with an excess wall thickness, moving at least one sliding element on the injection mould against the region on the main body in which the component section is to be formed in order to form the component section so that the wall thickness is smaller than the other sections of the main body, cooling and removing the plastic component from the mould cavity.

Abstract: Apparatus (1) for transferring at least one component portion (2-4) of an at least partially undercut injection molded plastic component (5), particularly a window frame trim component, from a first state, in which the at least one component portion (2-4) has a geometric deviation from a component-specific reference state, to a second state, in which the at least one component portion (2-4) has no geometric deviation from the component-specific reference state, the apparatus (1) comprising an actuation device (6) comprising at least one first actuation element (7a-7c) configured to exert a transfer force to an at least partially undercut injection molded plastic component (5), particularly a window frame trim component, having at least one component portion (2-4) having a first state, in which the at least one component portion (2-4) has a geometric deviation from a component-specific reference state so as to transfer the at least one component portion (2-4) from the first state to a second state, in which th

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a body component (1) for a motor vehicle (2), said body component (1) being made of a main body (3), formed from a batt that is embedded in a plastics matrix, and comprising at least one air-removal device (4), in particular for removing air from an interior (5) of the motor vehicle (2). The air-removal device (4) comprises at least one ventilation opening (7) that can be reversibly sealed by means of at least one ventilation flap element (6).

Abstract: An interior trim element for a motor vehicle, comprising a main part, more particularly a trough-shaped main part, that defines an interior space, and comprising at least one clip element, wherein the at least one clip element is pivotally hinged to the main part (2) via at least one film hinge, wherein the film hinge is formed on a shoulder created on an edge portion (4a) of the main part that partially delimits the interior space, the shoulder being offset with respect to the free end of the edge portion.

Abstract: An injection-moulding tool (2) for producing an in particular thin-walled plastics component, comprising: —at least two tool elements (1, 1?, 1?), wherein the at least two tool elements (1, 1?, 1?), in a closed position of the injection-moulding tool (2), are moved against one another at least in sections so as to form at least a subregion of a shape-imparting tool cavity (3) of the injection-moulding tool (2), wherein—the at least two tool elements (1, 1?, 1?) each have at least one shape-imparting contouring structure (4, 4?, 4?) which delimits the tool cavity (3) at least in sections, wherein—on at least one tool element (1, 1?, 1?), adjacent to the contouring structure (4, 4?, 4?), there is formed at least one ventilation structure (5) for ventilating the tool cavity (3) in the closed position of the injection-moulding tool (2).
