  • Patent number: 10899226
    Abstract: The vehicle trim element includes a body defining the outer surface of the trim element, said outer surface including at least one main area and at least one secondary area, the body including at least one deformable part forming a flap movable in the secondary area between a first stable position, in which said flap extends substantially in the continuation of the main area, and at least one second stable position, in which the flap forms a non-zero angle with the main area so as to extend protruding from said main area. In the second position, the flap forms a wall on one side of which a functional space extends opposite the secondary area.

  • Patent number: 10723285
    Abstract: A dashboard of a vehicle has a structure that includes at least one first element and at least one second element, and a skin covering at least part of the first element and the second element. The structure and the skin together define an outer surface of the dashboard. The first element and the second element are able to be moved relative to one another, with the movement causing a deformation of the outer surface of the dashboard.

  • Patent number: 8795459
    Abstract: A vehicle interior trim element has at least one substrate layer covered with a skin having an outer surface containing a plurality of asperities, regularly distributed on the outer surface. The outer surface of the skin defines an outer surface of the trim element that is visible within the vehicle interior. The trim element may be processed by applying a heat source on part of the outer surface forming a decorative area, the application of the heat source being arranged to at least reduce the height of the asperities in the decorative areas such that the decorative area has a different appearance from the rest of the outer surface.

  • Publication number: 20060175858
    Abstract: A piece of equipment includes a rigid support frame (5) and a flexible lining (7) which covers the outer face (9) of the support frame, the lining includes an outer covering (17). The lining hass protrusions (19, 27) which project out from the outer covering (17) and which rest on the outer face (9) of the support frame (5). According to the invention, spaces (21) for the deformation of the lining are defined between the protrusions, thereby making the lining flexible. The invention can be used, for example, to produce instrument panels.
