The invention relates to trims for motor vehicle glazing systems, comprising a base layer and a coating and having glass-like optical properties at least in some subsections, composites consisting of such trims for motor vehicle glazing systems, and car body parts, as well as preferred embodiments which comprise suitable combinations of materials. Said trims comprising, at least towards the front side thereof, an edge rounding having a variable radius which allows a more uniform layer thickness for the coating.

A computer-implemented method for optimising an injection moulding process for producing thick-walled components based on a model parameterised on the basis of parameters to be predetermined is provided, wherein a component to be produced is represented in the model with a component geometry, and the method comprises at least the following steps: e) defining a group of parameters as primary characteristics on the basis of a relative influence of the parameters on a predetermined model response, and f) defining parameter values for the primary characteristics as starting values for a subsequent optimisation of the model and of respective tolerance ranges for the primary characteristics, c) optimising the parameter values of the individual primary characteristics with respect to a desired value of the model response in the respective tolerance ranges, proceeding from the starting values from step a), and d) setting the optimised parameter values from step c) as the corresponding starting parameter values on an injection-moulding machine.

The invention relates to a composite plastic part consisting of a plastic part () that has a rib structure (), and (a) profiled support(s) () which is/are glued to the ribs and the longitudinal edge of which is arranged vertically or nearly vertically on the plastic base. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a composite part and finished products containing such composite parts as components.

A slatted roof for a motor vehicle comprises a plurality of slats connected to one another in a material-bonded manner. The slats are guided laterally in guide rails by pegs and are moveable between a closed position, in which the slats block an opening in the roof, and an open position, in which the slats are pushed and folded together in one region of the roof. Each slat has two first opposed sides and two second opposed sides, and the slats are connected along the second opposed sides. Each first opposed side includes at least two pegs, wherein, for all slats except for an end slat, two of the pegs on each of the first opposed sides are of different dimensions, and wherein two opposed pegs on the first opposed sides of each slat are of identical dimensions.

Slatted roof for a motor vehicle

A vehicle roof having an opening, a folding arrangement, and a device for receiving the folding arrangement. The folding arrangement has at least two slats made of plastic which are arranged parallel to one another, and the folding arrangement can be retracted, while being folded, into the device in order to at least partially unblock the opening. The folding arrangement closes the opening completely when in the closed position. The slats are curved as a result of bracing when in the closed position and are oriented in a substantially flat and plane-parallel manner when retracted into the device.
