Patent number: 10156032Abstract: A method for processing a compensation layer, used in a vehicle interior, to increase a pressure resistance of the compensation layer. The method includes providing an unprocessed compensation layer. The compensation layer includes a first layer formed of fiber stitches, a second layer formed of fiber stitches, and a plurality of pile fiber bundles, each formed of pile fibers, connecting the first and second layers. The method further includes displacing the first and second layers substantially translatorily towards one another to thereby deform the pile fiber bundles into a deformed state, such that a distance between the first and second layers is reduced. The method also includes fixing the pile fiber bundles in the deformed state, such that the pressure resistance of the compensation layer in the deformed state is greater than the pressure resistance of the unprocessed compensation layer.Type: GrantFiled: December 4, 2014Date of Patent: December 18, 2018Assignee: Lisa Draexlmaier GMBHInventor: Christian Schlemmer

Patent number: 9272487Abstract: The present application relates to a method for producing a composite body comprising a flexible decorative material for use as decorative trim having a visible surface in a motor vehicle. The method comprises first joining a plurality of material pieces to form a material block, and then severing one or more composite bodies from the material block. The severing is carried out such that the severed composite body contains several of the material pieces. Thereafter, the severed composite body is applied to a visible surface of a decorative trim.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2010Date of Patent: March 1, 2016Assignee: Lisa Draexlmaier GmbHInventors: Christian Schlemmer, Rudolf Aichner

Patent number: 8181986Abstract: A directional device for the deployment of an airbag includes a deflection element that directs airbag deployment, the deflection element on actuation of the airbag exerting a pressure on the airbag which is directed away from the windscreen during the entire airbag deployment phase such that the airbag is directed away from the windscreen on its deployment. The directional device prevents damage/destruction of the windscreen on actuation of the airbag and thus improves protection of the vehicle occupants. The directional device is also capable of being variable fixed and replaceable in an airbag configuration/covering and may also optionally be integrated therein such that simplification of the development or series production of the airbag configuration is achieved.Type: GrantFiled: January 31, 2008Date of Patent: May 22, 2012Assignee: Lisa Dräxlmaier GmbHInventor: Christian Schlemmer
