Abstract: A decorative layer for an interior trim part for covering and/or receiving an airbag in a motor vehicle is able to be arranged in a detachable and/or position-adjustable manner on a carrier element of the interior trim part. The decorative layer has a predetermined breaking point region for arrangement on at least one predetermined breaking point line of the carrier element, through which predetermined breaking point region the airbag can be unfolded in a triggered state. The predetermined breaking point region has at least one means for weakening, in particular of a material, of the decorative layer. An interior trim part for covering an airbag in a motor vehicle includes a carrier element and the decorative layer.

Abstract: An interior component of a motor vehicle includes a carrier element and an upper textile layer.

Abstract: An apparatus for producing an interior component from a carrier element and a top layer includes a handling device, a component support for receiving the carrier element and the top layer, where the component support has a fixing device for temporarily fixing the carrier element and the top layer on the component support, a welding head, and a sewing head. A control unit controls the handling device where a data set for controlling at least the handling device in a manner dependent on a material of the top layer is stored in the control unit and where the handling device is controllable depending on the material of the top layer by the control unit such that, to connect the top layer to the carrier element, the top layer and the carrier element are welded by the welding head or sewn by the sewing head.

Abstract: A method for producing a trim part includes generating a surface covering, wherein the surface covering is generated by a knitting method and fastening elements are disposed on the surface covering. The carrier part is covered with the generated surface covering. Fixing elements are disposed on the carrier part. The fastening elements of the surface covering are connected in a form-fitting manner to the fixing elements of the carrier part.

Abstract: A decorative covering for an interior trim part includes at least two decorative parts, which are each realized in the form of a cloth-like sheet material with a plastics content, a first connecting end portion of the first decorative part and a second connecting end portion of the second decorative part being integrally bonded to one another in a connecting portion of the decorative covering. A method is provided for producing the decorative covering.

Abstract: A decorative layer for an interior trim part for covering and/or receiving an airbag in a motor vehicle is able to be arranged in a detachable and/or position-adjustable manner on a carrier element of the interior trim part. The decorative layer has a predetermined breaking point region for arrangement on at least one predetermined breaking point line of the carrier element, through which predetermined breaking point region the airbag can be unfolded in a triggered state. The predetermined breaking point region has at least one means for weakening, in particular of a material, of the decorative layer. An interior trim part for covering an airbag in a motor vehicle includes a carrier element and the decorative layer.

Abstract: A surface textile for an interior component of a motor vehicle has a front side and a rear side. The rear side is able to be coupled to a carrier for forming the interior component of the motor vehicle. The rear side has at least a slip-resisting property. The front side and the rear side differ from one another in terms of their textile structure and/or in terms of their textile composition.

Abstract: A device for thermosetting a knitted fabric includes a first tool half and a second tool half. The first tool half and the second tool half in a closed position enclose a cavity in which the knitted fabric is receivable. Each of the first tool half and the second tool half have a respective shape-imparting effective surface by way of which an external form of the knitted fabric is determinable. The device further includes a heating installation where thermal energy is introducible into the knitted fabric via the heating installation.

Abstract: A cladding part has a carrier part and a surface covering, which is arranged on a side of the carrier part that faces the surface covering. The surface covering is made of an intrinsically stiff knitted-fabric material.

Abstract: A method for producing a trim part includes the following steps: generating a surface covering, wherein a knitted semi-finished product is generated on a flat knitting machine; the knitted semi-finished product is washed; the washed knitted semi-finished product is heat set; and laminating, in particular press-laminating or compression-laminating, the generated surface covering onto a carrier part.

Abstract: An interior part for a vehicle includes a decorative part composed of a textile material that has a fold section where the fold section is a portion of the textile material that has a changed material property. A method for producing an interior part for a vehicle includes providing a decorative part composed of a textile material and producing a fold section in the decorative part by changing a material property of the textile material along a line and/or in a region by an input of thermal energy.
