The invention is directed to a decorative vehicle element including a, preferably radio-transmissive, substrate having a first surface on a first side and a second surface on a second side; and a first surface, preferably radio-transmissive, decorative coating on the substrate, the decorative coating including a decorative layer consisting of a metal or consisting of an alloy including a metal; as well as a radar system including a radio wave transmitter, a radio wave receiver and a decorative element, especially radome.

First surface decorative element

A decorative radome including a radio-transmissive substrate having a first surface on a first side and a second surface on a second side; and a first surface radio-transmissive decorative coating; methods of manufacturing a PVD coated system include applying a hard coating to the substrate; applying a PVD coating by magnetron sputtering to the substrate; and laser etching one or more of a pattern or a graphic into the PVD coating; and A decorative PVD coated item, comprising: a substrate; a hard coating applied to the substrate; a PVD coating provided on the hard coating and the substrate, wherein the PVD coating is laser etched with one or more of a pattern or a graphic so that the PVD coating is at least partially removed and the pattern or the graphic is revealed as a result of the contrast between the substrate and the PVD coating.

A light emitting system includes a light pipe, a light source disposed at least partially within an interior of the light emitting system, and configured to emit light when receiving electrical power from an electrical power source, wherein the light source is arranged adjacent to and directed towards the light pipe, a lens substantially enclosing the interior of the light emitting system, the light pipe and the light source, the lens having an inner surface and an outer surface disposed opposite the inner surface, and a mask comprising a coating that is applied on the lens and laser etched to form a desired pattern, wherein light emitted from the light source passes through the light pipe and lens.

Light emitting system, a design element, a rear view device, a covering device, and a body component of a vehicle

The present disclosure refers to a lighting unit, in particular in form of a RGB light assembly, comprising one or more lighting segments, wherein each lighting segment comprises several light sources emitting light rays into one or more light guides merging into one light out-coupling surface for guiding the outputted light rays to a lens providing a light output. The light unit may be provided in two alternatives either the light sources directly face the lens such that light rays are guided through the light guide to pass the lens to light up a surface, or the light sources emit light rays to enter the light guide to be guided to a reflector which focuses the light rays into a light window of a mask to light up the lens in the region of the light window.

An antenna housing for mounting on a vehicle or on a vehicle roof surface includes an electrical circuit including at least one source element for emitting luminescent radiation, the at least one source element being located internally within the housing so as not to be visible externally, an indicating element for releasing luminescent radiation received from the at least one source element for viewing externally, and an optical conduit for providing an optical couple between the at least one source element and the indicating element. A combined antenna and indicator module for mounting on a vehicle includes the antenna housing, and a vehicle includes the combined antenna and indicator module.

Antenna housing, a combined antenna and indicator module and a vehicle

The present disclosure relates to a cover for at least one antenna emitting or sensing electromagnetic radiation in at least one first frequency band, the cover includes at least one first surface facing the antenna and at least one second surface averted to the antenna, where the cover includes at least one substrate being transmissible for electromagnetic radiation and at least one first coating covering the substrate in at least one first area, the first coating being transmissible for electromagnetic radiation of at least the first frequency band, whereas the first coating is reflective for electromagnetic radiation falling onto the second surface and having a frequency within at least one second frequency band.

Electromagnetic interference protection for radomes

A covering device for arrangement on at least one outer or one inner region of a motor vehicle includes at least one form element which is produced and/or can be produced by means of injection moulding and has an inner side oriented towards the motor vehicle and an outer side oriented away from the motor vehicle, one or more lighting devices for emitting light. The covering device also includes at least one covering element which, for covering the form element at least in regions, is arranged at least in regions on the outer side of the form element, at least part of the light emitted by the lighting device being able to pass through the form element and/or the covering element.

Covering device, body part and motor vehicle

A light emitting system includes at least one light pipe, at least one light source disposed at least partially within an interior of the system, at least one mask, and a lens substantially enclosing the interior of the system, the at least one light pipe, and the at least one light source, the lens having an inner surface, an outer surface disposed opposite the inner surface and at least one of a continuous transparent or translucent coating on the outer surface.

A multifunction lamp unit for a vehicle includes a housing, at least one light pipe together with at least one light source disposed at least partially within the housing, and a clear lens substantially enclosing the housing, the at least one light pipe and the at least one light source, the lens having an inner surface, an outer surface disposed opposite the inner surface and at least one of a continuous transparent and translucent coating on the outer surface.

Light efficiency methods for vehicular HTL systems

A vehicle part includes an injection molded main body having a front side and a rear side with a three dimensional form on the rear side, a metallized coating on one or more portions of the three dimensional form on the rear side of the injection molded main body, and a backing layer overmolded on the rear side of the injection molded main body, the three dimensional form, and the metallized coating.
