A metallic decorative part for a vehicle display device includes a substrate body molded from a synthetic resin, a metal thin film that is formed of metal and deposited on a surface of the substrate body, and a plurality of grooves deposited on a surface of the metal thin film in accordance with a shape of the surface of the substrate body. The grooves are formed so that a width is larger than 0 and equal to or smaller than 3.0 m, and a height is larger than 0 and equal to or smaller than 1.0 m. Accordingly, the metallic decorative part for a vehicle display device can properly secure a metallic texture recognized by a viewer with a configuration in which the metal thin film is deposited on the surface of the substrate body made of resin.

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a metal sheet. In this method, at least one of the following equations is satisfied: $\begin{array}{cc}\frac{Z}{d}+18\ln \left(\frac{Z}{d}\right)<8\ln \left(\frac{P}{V}\right)-27.52& \left(A\right)\\ {\mathrm{fO}}_2<\frac{2.304.Math.{10}^{-3}}{{(27.52+\frac{Z}{d}+8\ln (\frac{V}{P}}^{}}\end{array}$

A formed member is provided which can be manufactured at a low cost, which has excellent dimensional accuracy, which has excellent axial crushing properties and three-point bending properties, which has excellent bending stiffness and torsional stiffness, and which is suitable for use in a component of an automobile. The formed member (20) has a reinforcing member (35) which is joined by a weld (40) provided on a ridge portion (28). It is manufactured by joining a flat sheet blank and a flat sheet reinforcing member (35) by a weld (40) and performing bending so that the weld (40) becomes a ridge portion (28).

A frame for bonding a first glass component to a second glass component with a desired thickness of adhesive is disclosed. The frame has a horizontal top portion sized to overlap the top surface of the first glass component. The horizontal top portion has a distal surface which is configured to contain the adhesive when poured on the top surface of the first glass component. The horizontal top portion is thicker than the layer of adhesive to be used so that the second glass component may be placed within the frame to abut the distal surface. The frame also has a vertical side portion which extends downward from the horizontal top portion and is sized to wrap around the first perimeter.

A material includes a sheet of metal having a first face and an opposed second face, and a metal grain direction. The first face is textured with a first set of texturing features. Each texturing feature of the first set includes, respectively, a groove cut into the first face and extending along a groove axis, and a barb extending from the groove and away from the first face. The texturing features of the first set are arranged in a plurality of rows, and the groove axes of the texturing features in a given row extend generally parallel to the given row. The rows are generally non-perpendicular to the grain direction.

A method relates to producing a sheet metal profile, in particular consisting of steel, for a drawer pull-out guide having at least one web projecting laterally, in particular perpendicularly, from a flat surface of the sheet metal profile and extending in the longitudinal direction of the sheet metal profile. In a first method step, from at least one flat surface of a sheet metal billet, there is extruded at least one web projecting laterally, in particular perpendicularly, and extending in the longitudinal direction of the sheet metal billet. In at least one further method step, preferably in 10 to 15 further method steps, the at least one web is squeezed together, i.e. is reduced in width and increased in height. The invention further relates to a sheet metal profile produced in this manner and to a drawer pull-out guide that comprises such a profile.

A glass assembly having a first glass component, a frame overlapping the perimeter and top surface of the first glass component, a second glass component atop the frame, and a layer of adhesive interposed between the two glass components. Also disclosed is a frame for bonding two glass components. Also disclosed is a protective glass assembly for a LCD having a top surface and perimeter. The protective glass assembly having a frame which overlaps the top surface and perimeter of the LCD, a glass component placed atop the frame, and a layer of optical adhesive interposed between the LCD and the glass component.

The present invention provides a deformed part created by forming a coated metal sheet into a part, the coated metal sheet comprising a steel substrate, at least one face of which is coated with a metal coating deposited by dipping the substrate in a bath, said coating comprising between 0.2 and 0.7% by weight of Al, the remainder of the metal coating being Zn and inevitable impurities, wherein an outer surface of a metal coating of the deformed part has a waviness Wa0.8 of less than or equal to 0.43 m.

A method for producing a pot-shaped component from a flat blank. The method comprises the following steps: a) shaping the flat blank in at least one deep-drawing step to form a pot-shaped raw component having a substantially flat bottom area and a circumferential frame, and b) shaping the pot-shaped raw component in a tool having a conically tapered die that applies shear to the circumferential surface of the frame in the axial direction against the conically tapered die. In step b), the bottom area is clamped between an ejector and a hold-down mechanism and the conically tapered die surrounds the bottom area of the raw component radially on the outside and extends in a diameter-reducing manner in a tool stroke.
