  • Patent number: 11935395
    Abstract: An actuator housing intended to provide haptic feedback in a vehicle includes a container having a recess configured to accommodate an oscillating actuator and an insertion opening that opens into the recess, and a cover configured to at least partially close the insertion opening of the container. The container and the cover are mounted so as to be able to move in translation relative to each other and configured such that, when the oscillating actuator is accommodated in the recess, the oscillation of the oscillating actuator causes the cover to move in translation relative to the container, generating haptic vibration in a direction of movement.

  • Patent number: 11865749
    Abstract: This process for manufacturing a plastic part (1) having a first technical face and a second face, in a mold comprising a first shell intended to form the first face endowed with impressions intended to form technical members of the technical face and a second shell intended to form the second face, the first shell and the second shell delimiting a cavity that forms the part (1), comprises the following steps:—providing a porous reinforcing element (3);—draping the reinforcing element (3) over the first shell by covering the surface of the first shell and the impressions intended to form the technical members;—retaining the reinforcing element (3) on the first shell by retaining means;—bringing the first shell and the second shell together;—injecting a plastic in order to fill the cavity, the plastic passing through the porous reinforcing element (3) in order to fill impressions intended to form the technical members;—moving the first and second shells apart;—ejecting the plastic part (1).

  • Patent number: 11084448
    Abstract: An assembly for attaching a trim element (2) to a structural element (3) of a vehicle, between which a safety airbag (27) is inserted that is able to take a folded stand-by position, a deployed protection position and a deflated post-deployment position, the attachment assembly comprising primary attachment means that allows the trim element (2) to be held against the structural element (3) when the airbag (27) is in stand-by position, and secondary attachment means allowing the trim element (2) to be held when the airbag (27) is in protection position comprises, in addition, means for bringing the trim element (2) back toward the structural element (3) when the airbag (27) is in post-deployment position.
