The invention relates to a process for producing a composite component having at least one functional element composed of at least one cylindrical hollow profile and at least one plastic to be introduced into the hollow profile by means of specific injection molding methods.

Hollow-profile composite technology

The invention relates to a front end of a motor vehicle, consisting of at least one main body and at least a first thermoplastic part and a second thermoplastic part, which are securely connected by injection molding firstly to the main body and simultaneously the various plastics parts are securely connected to one another, wherein the two plastics parts consist of different plastics materials and these are injection molded according to the bi-injection process and fuse with one another when they encounter one another.

Front end of a motor vehicle

A process for the bonding of a fiber-reinforced material to an injection-molding material and an article produced by the process. The process improves the bond between a fiber-reinforced starting material and a material applied by injection. A further plastics material is inserted under pressure into a fiber-reinforced plastics material. This results in interlock bonding between the further plastics material and the fibers of the fiber-reinforced plastics material. This type of bonding is substantially more stable than known bonding.

Connecting fiber-reinforced material to an injection-moulded material

The present invention relates to a transverse-member motor-vehicle module for receiving the instrument panel and reinforcing the bodywork for the direct connection of the two A-pillars of a motor vehicle, composed of a transverse member with a steering-column retainer, where the transverse-member module, i.e. not only the transverse member but also the steering-column retainer, are manufactured using a metal-plastic-composite design (hybrid technology), and these are composed of at least one main body and of at least one first thermoplastic part and one second thermoplastic part, where these have been securely bonded via injection molding firstly to the main body and simultaneously the various plastics parts have been bonded to one another, where the two plastics parts are composed of different plastics materials and these are injected in the bi-injection molding process, where they fuse with one another when they encounter one another.

Transverse-member module for a motor-vehicle

The present invention relates to lightweight components of hybrid design, also termed hybrid component or hollow-chamber lightweight component, composed of a parent body which is composed of galvanized iron and which is reinforced by means of thermoplastics and is suitable for the transmission of high mechanical loads.

Lightweight component of hybrid

The present invention relates to lightweight components of hybrid design, also termed hybrid component or hollow-chamber lightweight component, composed of a parent body which is composed of surface-pretreated aluminium and which is reinforced by means of thermoplastics and is suitable for the transmission of high mechanical loads, where particular flow aids are added to the thermoplastic in order to improve its physical properties.
