Abstract: A transfer film (1), in particular for decorating casing components for motor vehicles or domestic appliances, including a carrier ply (3) with at least one carrier layer (31) and a transfer ply (2) arranged on the carrier ply (3), wherein the transfer ply (2) has a protective layer composite (21) having a first protective layer (5) and at least one receiving layer (4) for coating the transfer ply (2) in a coatable region (41) with at least one coating (6), wherein the at least one receiving layer (4) is arranged on the first protective layer (5) and wherein the at least one receiving layer (4) is arranged against a first surface of the transfer ply (2) facing towards the carrier ply (3). A a method for producing a transfer film, as well as a component and a method for the production thereof using a transfer film.

Abstract: The present invention relates to multilayered composite films comprising a film or film combination A of plastics layers or metal layers in any arrangement, having an at least 10 &mgr;m thick, biaxially oriented heat-sealable layer C predominantly comprising polyethylene homopolymers or polyethylene copolymers, which is bonded by means of an adhesive layer or connecting layer B to the film or film combination A.

Abstract: Automobile distance sensors are becoming increasingly common. These sensors must be connected to the automobile bumper in a permanent fashion and rigidly in a predetermined installation position. According to the invention, the device for receiving an ultrasonic sensor is divided. A first part (3) is cast onto the bumper (1), the second part (11) being preferentially connected to the first part (3) in such a way that it cannot be detached. Advantageous embodiments are aimed at installing the sensor so that it is tilted and relate to preferred methods of connecting the two parts of the device. A second configuration relates to a sensor which is provided with a holder. The holder is particularly suitable for latching into the bumper at the front with a sensor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a bumper that features holders suitable for the acceptance of ultrasound transducers. The objective of the invention is to improve the coating properties of such a holder by avoiding mold seams. The invention essentially consists in providing the holder with an integrally cast panel which covers mold seams on the transducer and/or divides the holder into two holder segments, with the first holder segment being integrally cast onto the bumper.

Abstract: Thermally and mechanically formable polymer film, characterised by a transparent antistatic coating of a mixture of 3,4-polyethylene dioxythiophene with a thermally or mechanically formable binder, its production and its use for packaging electronic components.
