Abstract: A screening element for motor vehicles is disclosed with a lead-in element which provides a preferred heat, sound and vibration uncoupling in the body region. The screening element supplied in this case comprises at least two separated outer layers between which an insert is arranged, wherein the at least two separated outer layers and the insert have coaxial openings which form a common opening in which a lead-in element is received or mounted, wherein the openings of the respective outer layers have a larger cross-sectional area than the opening of the insert, where the lead-in element is connected to the insert in such a manner that there is no contact with the outer layers. The screening element or heat shield therefore has a sufficient heat, sound and vibration uncoupling, can be produced at low cost without manual operations, and is simple to assemble.

Abstract: A window assembly for sealingly attaching a window glass (16) to a frame of a motor vehicle door (6), includes a sealing assembly in combination with a window glass. The sealing assembly comprises a sealing, trimming or guiding strip (30) comprising a length of extruded material, a polypropylene or the like part (58) which is joined to the window glass (16) at an edge of the window glass (16), and a moulded material (60, 160), which is joined to the polypropylene or the like part (58) and connected to said sealing strip (30). The moulded material (60, 160) is preferably made of TPE. The strip (30) is preferably made of EPDM. The moulded material (60, 160) is moulded in a mould with the polypropylene or the like part (58), which has previously been moulded onto the window glass (16), and the strip (30) to mould onto and thereby connect to these parts.

Abstract: The invention relates to a housing sealing cover (1, 10, 15, 18) for detachable liquid-tight fixing to an internal combustion engine, comprising an add-on piece (24) which is firmly connected to the housing, extending through the cover when in a mounted position. Said cover consists of a metallic or polymer support element (2) made of a single layer and is provided with an opening (25) for the add-on piece (24), wherein a seal (23) is arranged in said opening. Said seal comprises a sealing lip(3, 11) extending axially on the edge (26) of the opening (25) and a sealing lip (5, 12, 16, 19) extending radially in relation to the seal of the add-on piece (24). The radially extending sealing lip (5, 12, 16, 19) is retained in the opening (25) in an angularly and radially displaceable manner with respect to the support element (2).

Abstract: Process for the creation of a seal on a component, in which on one surface of the component which may be pre-treated, a sealant material is applied using screen printing, and by means of a tool at a specific temperature, the geometry of the finished seal is imprinted into the sealant material.

Abstract: A cover for a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine having a connecting element for attachment the cylinder head and a sealing element arranged between the cylinder head cover and the cylinder head. The connecting element is associated with a connecting area, and the sealing element is associated with a sealing area. The connecting area and the sealing area are constructed independently of each other and are spatially separated from each other, and the force vectors of the connecting force transmitted by the connecting element and the sealing force transmitted by the sealing element form an angle with each other.

Abstract: An audio system that allows audio to be stored and/or moved between components of the audio system by means of digital plug-in cards.

Abstract: A rocker cover assembly for a cylinder head of an internal combustion engine includes a rock cover, a gasket element and a stabilizing core.

Abstract: A system for sealing an air duct by coating the interior of the duct with a material similar to the coating used for spray-on truck bed liners. A spray device applies the liner material to the interior surface of the ducts and the spray device is held in the center of the duct by retractable sets of wheels. The spray device is removably attached to a supply hose that provides liner material to the spray device from a storage tank via a supply pump. The supply hose is first fed through the duct, the spray head is attached to the supply hose and the liner material is sprayed onto the duct as the spray head is retracted through the duct. The system can be either computer or manually controlled and can optionally employ an electrostatic unit to put opposite electrical charges on the duct and the liner material.
