Abstract: A pillar garnish for a front pillar disposed between a front windshield glass and a side window glass of an automotive vehicle. The pillar garnish comprises a main body section formed of plastic and secured to a vehicle body. The main body section is generally channel-shaped to cover the front pillar forming part of the vehicle body. The main body section has an inner surface facing the front pillar, and an outer surface facing a vehicle passenger inside a passenger compartment. A plurality of reinforcement ribs are formed at the inner surface of the main body section and integral with the main body section. Each reinforcement rib extends perpendicular to the inner surface. Additionally, a plurality of auxiliary ribs are formed at the inner surface of the main body section and integral with the main body section. Each auxiliary rib extends parallel with each reinforcement rib. Each rib is located between the reinforcement ribs which are located adjacent each other.

Abstract: A pillar construction for a vehicle body includes a steel pad formed from a resilient sheet steel and disposed between a pillar inner panel of a pillar main body and a pillar trim. In a secondary collision in which the pillar trim is subjected to a force directed outward of a vehicle body and deformed thereby, the steel pad produces a reaction force against deformation of the pillar trim at the initial stage of the secondary collision and substantially no reaction force at the final stage of the secondary collision.

Abstract: Alignment marks capable of providing accurate registration signals even if substrate surface is rough and capable of effectively preventing degradation of registration accuracy due to unevenness of a surface of a resist film, and method of forming such alignment marks are disclosed. The alignment marks include flat portions 1a having high vertical reflectance serving as the alignment mark portions and rough portions 1b, formed spaced apart from each other by a prescribed distance on a surface of a substrate 1 by irradiation of laser beam 50. Therefore, fluctuation of height of a surface of a resist film 13 formed on the alignment marks with an upper layer film posed therebetween can be prevented, and in turn, degradation of registration accuracy of masks due to the unevenness of the resist film surface can be effectively prevented. Even if the surface of the substrate is rough, flat portions 1a providing accurate signal waveforms can be easily formed.
