SOLUTION FOR PROVIDING END WALL ON METAL TRIM PROFILE
A method including providing a trim profile, the trim profile including a bend extending in the longitudinal direction of the trim profile, wherein the bend is arranged between side edges extending in the longitudinal direction, and wherein the bend shapes an interior surface and an exterior surface of the trim profile, fixating a first part of the trim profile including the bend in a first fixation arrangement, and arranging and fixating a second part of the trim profile in a second fixation arrangement. A deep drawing operation providing a relative displacement between a stamping tool and at least one of the fixation arrangements in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction so that the stamping tool moves into a working space, wherein the deep drawing operation forces a wall material of the trim profile into the working space to provide an end wall part on the trim profile.
COVER MEMBER
A cover member (1) includes a curved upper surface (U1) that covers an upper wall portion (U) of a radiator grill (R) from above, wherein the curved upper surface (U1) includes a sealing material dispositioning region (R1) in which a foam sealing material (S) is provided and which is surrounded by a frame-shaped protruding portion (1b), and a sealing material non-dispositioning region (R2) disposed adjacent to the sealing material dispositioning region (R1), in which the foam sealing material (S) is not provided, and a maximum curvature (C1) of the upper surface (U1) in the sealing material dispositioning region (R1) is set to be smaller than a maximum curvature (C2) of the upper surface (U1) in the sealing material non-dispositioning region (R2).
Window-Attachable Animal Head Device
The present invention relates to a window-attachment animal head device, primarily comprised of a body that resembles the head of an animal and that comprises at least one suction cup and at least one L-bracket that allows the device to removably-attach to a vehicle window. The body is also comprised of a set of ears, a set of eyes, a nose/snout, and a mouth with a tongue. Both the tongue and the ears may be of an exaggerated length and are non-rigid, such that they can be blown freely by the wind while the device is attached to a vehicle window and the vehicle is in motion. In this manner, the device allows a user to bring joy, humor and happiness to passing motorists which would ordinarily occur by bringing the pet in a vehicle, but without having to bring said pet into the vehicle.

VEHICLE INTERIOR TRIM SECURING SYSTEMS AND ASSOCIATED METHODS
A vehicle interior trim securing system includes a trim piece that includes a trim piece body. The trim piece includes a wire harness support that extends outward from the trim piece body that includes a support portion including an inner portion, an outer portion and a connecting portion that connects the inner portion and the outer portion forming a channel that is sized to receive a wire harness. A sealing structure includes a suction cup that is connected to the outer portion and a pull tab connected to the suction cup. The pull tab is partially covered by the trim piece body with the suction cup adhered to a floor underbody panel and has a length such that a free end extends laterally beyond the trim piece body.
DECORATIVE MOLDED ARTICLE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD FOR SAME
A decorative molded article transmits a radio wave handled by a radar device as a wireless device and illuminates a specific portion by a light irradiated from a light emitting device. A first reflective layer is formed to have a first opening portion in a back surface of a molded body, reflects light incident from the first opening portion, and transmits the millimeter wave. A first coloring unit transmits the millimeter wave and colors the light incident from the first opening portion to generate a first colored light. A shielding layer of a decorative sheet is fixedly secured to a translucent film, transmits the millimeter wave, and shields the first colored light. The shielding layer has a second opening portion arranged in the specific portion of the translucent film to take out the first colored light from the molded body to a front of a front surface.
T-BAYONET JOINT
A flange connector assembly for connecting trim pieces of a vehicle. A first male portion having an end portion connected to a first trim part and a second female portion connected to a trim part end to be attached to the first trim part. The first male portion has a connection portion with a T-shaped cross section and the second portion has a second connecting portion with a T-shaped cavity. The first male connecting portion and the second female connecting portion fit to precisely engage each other and retain the trim portion to be attached. The protruding T-shaped portion includes raised tuning flanges and is capable of adjusting up/down, inboard/outboard or twist fine tuning for providing alignment adjustment to the trim pieces via adjustment of the flange heights in the mold and providing new precisely adjusted T-flanges for providing a tuned butt connection of a trim strip for instance.
