Abstract: The invention relates to a lighting device (10) with a flat light guide (12) which has a protective layer (18) directly connected to a light guide core (16) on its light exit side (30) at least in a visible area (32), into which light (24) from at least one light source (22) can be coupled via the light guide core (16) via at least one coupling-in side (20), and which has a coupling-out structure (28) on its rear side (26) opposite the light exit side (30), which structure is set up to deflect light (24), as a result of which the deflected light (24) can be coupled into the light guide core (16) via at least one coupling-in side (20). (24) emerges from the light guide (12) into the environment via the light exit side (30), and with a housing (14) which covers the rear side (26) at least in overlap with the entire visible area (32) of the light guide (12) on a side facing away from the light exit side (30) and is connected to the light guide (12) in a dust-proof and contamination-proof manner.

Abstract: An equipment part may comprise a carrier, a composite film, and a light source. The composite film may be disposed on the carrier and may form a visible side of the equipment part. The composite film may comprise a light-conducting layer into which the light rays emitted by the light source are coupled. A scatter layer may be disposed on a side of the light-conducting layer facing the carrier, with the light rays coupled into the light-conducting layer emitting through said scatter layer. The composite film may comprise a first and a second paint layer, where the first paint layer may be disposed on a side of the scatter layer facing the carrier, and the second paint layer may be disposed on a side of the light-conducting layer facing away from the carrier. The equipment part may be produced via a method for production of such an equipment part.

Abstract: The invention relates to a mounting system for mounting a component on a support of a motor vehicle. The mounting system comprises a first fixing device for fixing the component without tools in a first region of the component and a second fixing device for fixing the component without tools in a second region of the component. The first fixing device includes a snap closure for fixing the first region of the component in three linearly independent directions, and the second fixing device includes a rail for fixing the second region of the component so as to be displaceable in one direction on the support.

Abstract: A center console for vehicles including a first half formed of a first material and a second half formed of a second material. The first and second halves joined directly with each other. The first half includes a first side panel extending in a longitudinal direction and a first element connecting to the first side panel. The second half includes a second side panel extending in the longitudinal direction and a second element connected to the second side panel. The first element projects from the first side panel toward the second side panel. The second element projects from the second side panel toward the first side panel. The first and second elements complement one another to form a functional element.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an equipment part, in particular for a motor vehicle, comprising a carrier (1), a composite film (2), and a light source (3). The composite film (2) is disposed on the carrier (1) and forms the visible side (4) of the equipment part. The composite film (2) comprises a light-conducting layer (5), a scatter layer (6), and two paint layers (7, 8), so that light rays (9) generated by the light source (3) can be coupled into the composite film, and the visible side (4) of the equipment part is extensively illuminated with the aid of the composite film (2). The present invention further comprises a method for the production of such an equipment part.

Abstract: The invention furnishes a stilting frame for the transport of containers by means of transhipment equipment, with the stilting frame being designed in such a way that in total four combined positions between the latch bolts of the transhipment equipment and the latch bolts of the stilting frame may be obtained from both switching positions of the latch bolts of the transhipment equipment. The stilting frame may thus be operated in a fully automatic manner and the operator may easily determine whether only the stilting frame is joined to the transhipment equipment, whether the container is also joined to the stilting frame, or whether or not all three elements are joined to each other.
