  • Patent number: 10821916
    Abstract: An automotive interior component includes a base member including a front surface, a back surface, and a side surface provided between the front surface and the back surface; and a skin material integrated with the base member. The skin material is integrated with the front surface and the side surface. The side surface of the base member is continuous to the front surface of the base member while forming an acute angle of angle ? therewith. The skin material includes an end surface extending along the side surface of the base member. The present invention provides the automotive interior component with a neat appearance.

  • Patent number: 10730452
    Abstract: An automobile interior part includes a base, which has a surface and a back surface, and also includes a skin, which has a back surface integrally laminated on the surface of the base. The automobile interior part has a main body and a flange that is continued to the main body. The skin has a fold part that is formed between the main body and the flange. The base has a body base that constitutes the main body and also has a flange base that constitutes the flange and that is separated from the body base at the fold part. The back surface of the skin between the body base and the flange base is exposed along the fold part. The automobile interior part has a good appearance.

  • Patent number: 7744983
    Abstract: The laminated structure includes a lightweight and shape-retaining foamed resin base member, an outer circumference frame integrally laminated on the reverse side of the foamed resin base member along the outer circumference of an article, and bridging ribs connecting between respective points on the outer circumference frame. Accordingly, the present invention provides a lightweight laminated structure with low cost by reducing the amount of the resin used, since the molded synthetic resin outer circumference frame and bridging ribs have small projection areas.

  • Publication number: 20060141240
    Abstract: To provide an interior component that partly includes a laminated assembly and a manufacturing method thereof that prevent flattening of pile of a decorative member in press molding to improve appearance. A door trim includes a laminated assembly (door trim upper portion) including a resin foam substrate that is light in weight and has a shape-holding property, a resin rib integrally laminated on a rear surface of the resin foam substrate, and a decorative member attached to a front surface of the resin foam substrate, and a resin molding (door trim lower portion). For the laminated assembly, a resin form sheet heated and softened and the decorative member that is not heated or is heated at a low temperature are placed into a forming die assembly in an laminated manner and integrated by a low pressing pressure, thereby preventing flattening of pile or thermal deformation of the decorative member, ensuring satisfactory moldability, and reducing a molding load in molding.
