The invention relates to a front end panel assembly () for an electric vehicle (), the assembly comprising: —an at least partially optically transparent laminate sheet () having side edges, comprising an optically transparent thermoplastic substrate and at least one protective layer; —a spacing structure () comprising a base () and a peripheral upstanding wall () extending from the base, wherein the upstanding wall connects to the laminate at or near at least part of the side edges of the laminate, such that a space () is formed and enclosed between the laminate sheet and the spacing structure, and wherein the at least one protective layer of the laminate faces away from the spacing structure.

Front end panel for an electric vehicle

A method of manufacturing a plastic glazing of a tailgate of a vehicle, the method comprising: injecting a first material into a molding apparatus to form a first component of the plastic glazing, wherein the first component comprises a panel of the plastic glazing; injecting a second material into the molding apparatus to form a second component of the plastic glazing, wherein the second component combines with at least the first component, wherein at least a portion of the first component and the second component comprises a transparent cover of a molded light assembly; and injecting a third material into the molding apparatus to form a third component, wherein the third component combines with at least the first component.

Molding of plastic glazing of tailgates

A plastic glazing of a tailgate of a vehicle is provided, the plastic glazing comprising a translucent component, wherein a portion of the translucent component forms a rear window of the vehicle, a colored component molded onto the translucent component in a second shot, wherein the colored component comprises a lens of a light unit, a non-transparent component molded onto the translucent component, wherein an overlapping portion of the translucent component and the non-transparent component forms a blackout region proximate to the rear window, wherein the plastic glazing is of one-piece molded plastic construction, wherein the translucent component comprises a first textured surface in a region adjacent to the blackout region, where the first textured surface is configured to conceal a component of the vehicle.

Three shot plastic tailgate

The invention relates to a front end panel assembly for an electric vehicle, the assembly comprising a front cover having side edges, the front cover extending in a bended shape such that a first angle α is enclosed between a first portion and a second portion of the front cover; and a carrier structure comprising a base and a peripheral wall extending from the base, wherein the carrier structure comprises a first part and a second part that enclose a second angle β; wherein the upstanding wall connects to the front cover at or near at least part of the side edges of the front cover, such that a space is formed and enclosed between the front cover and the carrier structure, wherein the first portion of the front cover covers the first part of the carrier structure, and the second portion of the front cover covers the second part of the carrier structure. The invention also relates to a vehicle provided with such a front end panel assembly.

Front end panel assembly for an electric vehicle

The invention relates to a front end panel assembly () for an electric vehicle (), the assembly comprising: -an at least partially optically transparent laminate sheet () having side edges, comprising an optically transparent thermoplastic substrate and at least one protective layer; -a spacing structure () comprising a base () and a peripheral upstanding wall () extending from the base, wherein the upstanding wall connects to the laminate at or near at least part of the side edges of the laminate, such that a space () is formed and enclosed between the laminate sheet and the spacing structure, and wherein the at least one protective layer of the laminate faces away from the spacing structure.

The invention relates to a front end panel assembly for an electric vehicle, the assembly comprising a front cover having side edges, the front cover extending in a bended shape such that a first angle &#x3b1; is enclosed between a first portion and a second portion of the front cover; and a carrier structure comprising a base and a peripheral wall extending from the base, wherein the carrier structure comprises a first part and a second part that enclose a second angle &#x3b2;; wherein the upstanding wall connects to the front cover at or near at least part of the side edges of the front cover, such that a space is formed and enclosed between the front cover and the carrier structure, wherein the first portion of the front cover covers the first part of the carrier structure, and the second portion of the front cover covers the second part of the carrier structure. The invention also relates to a vehicle provided with such a front end panel assembly.

Lighting systems for windows having plastic glazing

The invention relates to a drag-reducing aerodynamic component, comprising a body attachable to a roof of a vehicle, wherein the body comprises an air flow duct with a duct inlet at a front end of the body, and a duct outlet and a rear end of the body, located at a distance different from zero from the front end. The invention also relates to a vehicle comprising such a drag reducing component, wherein the body is attached to a roof of the vehicle and air flows through the air flow duct and is directed toward the rear end of the body, such that air stagnation is reduced around the vehicle and air flow is accelerated between the vehicle and a trailer attached to the vehicle to prevent air recirculation between the vehicle and the trailer, thereby reducing air pressure around and drag on the vehicle.

Roof fairing for a long haul truck

A plastic glazing of a tailgate of a vehicle is provided, the plastic glazing comprising: a first translucent component; a second translucent component molded onto the first translucent component, wherein the second translucent component comprises a color, wherein the plastic glazing is of one-piece molded plastic construction, wherein an overlapping portion of the first translucent component and the second translucent component forms a lens of a first molded light assembly.
