A vehicle trim part with a lighting function can comprise an at least partially light transmitting cover layer and a light emitting light system for at least partially emitting light towards the cover layer. A carrier can be arranged between the light emitting light system and the cover layer. The carrier can comprise a plurality of recesses and a plurality of through holes, each being arranged on a surface of the carrier facing the cover layer and open towards the cover layer, and wherein the plurality of recesses are closed towards the light emitting light system and the plurality of through holes being open towards the light emitting light system.

A vehicle interior trim element with haptic feedback function includes an elastic base layer that gives the vehicle interior trim element a soft feel, and a flexible cover layer. The flexible cover layer includes an electrically insulating top layer disposed on the visible side of the vehicle interior trim element, an electrically conductive sensor layer disposed between the upper layer and the base layer, and a piezoelectric actuator layer disposed between the sensor layer and the base layer. The sensor layer is configured to detect contact with the upper layer without deformation and to localize a corresponding contact area. The actuator layer is configured to provide haptic feedback.

The proposed vehicle interior trim part comprises a woven material having at least two parallel optical fibers that are able to laterally emit light and that extend in a longitudinal direction and having at least one further fiber and/or at least one further yarn. The vehicle interior trim part further comprises a reflective layer that is adjacent to the woven material and comprises a fleece material and that is configured to reflect light emitted by the at least two parallel optical fibers. The vehicle interior trim part additionally has a carrier that is adjacent to the reflective layer so that the reflective layer is located between the woven material and the carrier and having at least one light source that is optically connected to at least one of the at least two parallel optical fibers.

Vehicle interior trim part having optical fibers and method of producing same

The present application relates to a vehicle interior trim part. The vehicle interior trim part comprises a decorative layer, which has through-openings. In addition, the vehicle interior trim part comprises a reflective layer, which likewise has through-openings, the inner wall of the through-openings in the reflective layer being reflective. The through-openings in the reflective layer overlap at least in part with the through-openings in the decorative layer, such that a light path is formed at least in part. The reflective layer is at least 1.5 times as thick as the decorative layer in a periphery of the light path.

Perforated vehicle interior trim part

A process for producing an interior trim part () with a decorative layer situated on a first side (S) thereof and forming a decorative pattern (M) for the interior of a motor vehicle, the process comprising the following steps:

Interior trim part and method of manufacturing the same

The present subject matter relates to a method for manufacturing a vehicle interior trim part comprising a decor layer which forms a groove, as well as a decor element which is welded in the groove) of the decor layer, wherein the decor element is brought into the groove and is subsequently fixed in the groove by way of welding. According to the present subject matter, a welding head, e.g. an ultrasound sonotrode, is used for welding, and this comprises a contact side which is equipped with a plurality of projections which are arranged distanced to one another in a row and which taper to their contact surfaces, and wherein the welding head for producing the seam is pressed against a rear side of the decor layer in the region of the groove, in a manner such that the individual projections of the row of projections in a longitudinal directions of the groove come into contact with the rear side of the decor layer in a manner offset to one another, wherein the projections have a width which corresponds at least to 50% of a width of the decor element.

Method for manufacturing a vehicle interior trim part as well as a vehicle interior trim part

The present invention relates to an internal trim part for a vehicle, comprising at least two layers. A decorative skin () forms an upper layer and has a depression (), in which a decorative element () is arranged. The decorative element () is connected to the decorative skin () by means of a bonded connection, such as a weld seam, in particular an ultrasonic weld seam (). The invention further relates to a method for producing an internal trim part and to a device for performing said method.
