A heating system for a drive train or a component thereof and to a method for producing it. In order to produce an apparatus of the above-mentioned type, which can be inexpensively integrated into an existing system, it is proposed for at least one heating element, which is for active electrical heating of a drive train or component thereof, to be provided in combination with or in an already existing component for thermal and/or acoustic shielding.

Heating system and process for manufacturing same

A shielding component, a heat shield in particular, has at least two shield components () detachably connected to each other by a connection unit. The connection unit has at least one snap fastener (), with the stud element () connected to one shield component () and with the eyelet element () connected to the other shield component (). The shield components may be reliably separated from each other and reconnected to each other with exertion of little manual effort.

Shielding component, a heat shield in particular

A shielding component, in particular a heat shield, has at least two shield components () which can be connected to each other by a connection unit (). Because the connection unit () has a guide () which enables adjustment of the relative positions of the individual shield components () to each other and which is used for fastening in the adjusted position. A sliding heat shield concept arises in which, with a heat shield having several shield components, adaptation is possible on site to the geometrical conditions of engines and their add-on parts including exhaust systems. Effective sound damping and heat insulation can be produced in a wide area with only one shielding component and its shield components.
