Three-ply mouldings for interior fitting out of motor vehicle bodies - comprise two layers of plastics-coated fleece needled with perforated or slotted paper, under laid with fleece

Parent patent described plate-shaped mouldings of plastics-impregnated fleece material, press-moulded at elevated temp. and with application of moderate pressure which are used for the fiting out of motor vehicle bodies. The mouldings are composed of 2 superposed fleece webs, plastics coated on 1 side, and placed into a moulded press with the coated sides facing each other. Before the fleeces are coated with plastics, they are needled together with paper webs. The fleeces are needled with crepe paper webs, or with pleated paper webs. The paper webs are perforated or provided with slits at those points where they are subjected to strong deformation, and suitably underlaid with fleece material.

dimensionally precise deep-drawn moulding from resin-impregnated fleec - using combined male-female tool and punch with sectioned cutters to allow for heat-expansion differentials

Combined (deep-)drawing and punching tool, made e.g. of Al, is used for mfr. of mouldings from sheet material such as plastics-impregnated fleece. It comprises a male and a female mould between which the intended mouldings are shaped with application of heat and pressure, and of which one component is fitted with punches whose cutting edges cooperate with the other component. The punching tool is divided in to several sections perpendicularly to its cutting edge. These divisions allow to compensate for thermal expansion differentials when one part of the tool is made of e.g. Al, and the other of e.g. steel, thus minimising any loss of dimensional accuracy of the resulting moulding.

Moulding for interior car fittings - made of fibreboard core lined with plastic impregnated fibre mat

Mouldings have a core to act as a carrier plant, pref. consisting of a chipboard, fibre board or wood veneer and pressed into shape cold. Any cracks produced in curved parts are filled out by the impregnation of a pressed-on lining of fibre mat, pref. polyester resin or other thermosetting plastic. The fibre mat can be made of vegetable, animal or synthetic fibres. This moulding combines rigidity with high load-bearing strength and has a surface which readily accepts lacquer.

Recessed hardboard sheet suitable for surfacing processes - recess edges are slotted to protect recessed area from stress

A hardboard sheet, partic. from wood fibres and similar, with at least one shaped part; pref. a recess- has slots cut along in the area subjected to highest stress during its shaping process. These slots are close to the edge(s) of the shaped part but outside the actually deformed area and are therefore in an area which remains flat; they may be cut on one or both sides of the board and may be in rows. Method allows board to take tension stresses arising from the shaping process without affecting the shaped area, prod. can be subsequently surfaced without further processing.

... the interior of the vehicle is fitted with profiled tags (3) as a ledge around the upper part of the sidewalls. The tags are directed upwards, to form a smooth shape when viewed from underneath. The roof trim is made as a single panel (2) of elastic material to be self supporting. The panel is bent into shape and pressed upwards against the roof so that the bottom edges clip into the flanges. No extra supports are required to form the smooth fitting. The panel is fitted without special tools and is easily removed for repair access.

Corner connection for moulded fibreboards and a method for their production

The invention relates to a corner connection for two bent edge parts of a workpiece, which is produced from a board-like base material, in particular a moulded fibreboard or the like impregnated with a softening agent or the like, by pressure moulding, which invention is characterised by a corner anchoring board, which has two side boards which abut against one another at an angle and has anchoring hooks which project towards the workpiece surface, can be embedded in the softened base material during the pressure moulding process and can be anchored therein in a positively locking manner during subsequent curing, as well as a method for producing such a corner connection.

Moisture-repellant lining of fibre mats and process for the manufacture thereof

A moisture-repellant interior lining of fibre mats or similar materials is presented in which the edges (10) of the fibre mats (12) are bent off towards the wall (14) to be covered and are in contact with this in a surrounding and water-tight manner. The process for manufacturing this interior lining provides for a sealing material to be applied to the side directed towards the car body, which sealing material, when it is used not in a liquid or foam-like form but in film form, adheres to the sealing film in one work stage simultaneously with the compression moulding of the fibre mats, the synthetic resin being used as adhesive, which resin also serves to stabilise the fibre mat during compression moulding. ...

Fastener for pressed fibre lining in car - has base plate with anchoring hooks penetrating rear surface of lining

High strength wear resistant low density board - esp. for automobile interiors, moulded at low press for lightness

A method of making moulded board or panels consists of hot-pressing plastics-hardened fibrous non-wovens after the plastics-hardened matl. has been sprayed on one or both sides with thermosetting plastics. Prods. are for structural parts intended to withstand high dynamic loading, esp. automobile internal linings and panels. The hard surface layers give high strength, while the low pressure applied during pressing keeps the density low, thus giving good thermal insulation props. The matl. has softer edges than solid board, improving safety when use in automobiles.

Shaping of woodfibre hardboard by applying selective cuts - along the zones of greatest mechanical stress and inserting pieces in the cutouts

The shaping comprises cutting into the board, before the shaping step, within predetermined deformation regions. The cutting is effected by 1 single or several coherent cuts Specifically a strip covering the cutout is pressed from one side against th shaped board as it bears against a shaping element. such as a punch. The strip is made of deformable, hardenable, material. Used in mfr of sundry articles from deep-drawn wood fibre hardboard. The claimed process can e performed on conventional machines, using conveyor belt mass prodn techniques. The strip may be made of fibre-reinforced, curable plastics.

A method of producing shaped parts which are made of fibrous nonwoven materials containing synthetic resin, are provided with a structured ornamental layer and in which the fibrous nonwoven material treated with the synthetic resin is subjected to a compression moulding operation with the application of pressure and heat, wherein, to facilitate and achieve a less expensive production method, the ornamental film is placed, as yet smooth and unstructured, in a compression mould together with the fibrous nonwoven material treated with synthetic resin and they are then compressed jointly, the ornamental film being structured corresponding to the shaped surface of the compression tool and, at the same time, being joined fixedly to the hardening fibrous nonwoven material. ...

Grained surface components mfr. - from hard fibre plates without ornamental surfaces, by spraying and heat embossing hardened resin

The surface of a hard fibre component has applied to it, a coating of synthetic resin, which may be coloured as required. When this has set, a grained surface is produced on the component of hard fibre by means of heated embossing tools. The process eliminates the need for expensive equipment, as well as costly techniques such as the bonding on of embossing films of synthetic material. The weight of the components is not increased and a trimming for automobile coachwork can beproduced at an economical price.
