A vehicular interior part includes an armrest extending in a vehicular front-rear direction, the armrest including a vehicular interior edge portion and a vehicular exterior edge portion, and an interior part component where the armrest is mounted from an upper side at at least the vehicular interior edge portion and the vehicular exterior edge portion. One of the vehicular interior edge portion and the vehicular exterior edge portion is mounted on the interior part component so as to be removed from the interior part component relatively more easily than another one of the vehicular interior edge portion and the vehicular exterior edge portion.

An armrest structure for door trim has an armrest lower, an armrest upper, and a joining component that joins the armrest upper and the armrest lower together, wherein the joining component is provided with a strap portion, and an anchor portion, and wherein the attachment hole has a wider portion through which the anchor portion can be inserted, and a narrower portion through which the anchor portion cannot be inserted, and during a process to assemble the armrest upper and the armrest lower together, the anchor portion is inserted through the wider portion, and once the armrest upper and the armrest lower are in an assembled state, the anchor portion is located at a position underneath the narrower portion of the attachment hole that is formed in the armrest lower.

Embodiments include a vehicle having a door with an interior surface and an armrest disposed on the interior surface of the door. The armrest includes a first material distal from the interior surface of the door, a third material proximal to the interior surface of the door, and a second material disposed in between the first material and the third material. The first material and the third material have a first stiffness and a third stiffness that are both greater than a second stiffness of the second material.

An assembly for a vehicle interior includes at least one armrest each presenting a receiving surface for the elbow and/or forearm of an occupant of the vehicle interior and a support for the armrest. Each armrest has a panel movable in translation relative to the support according to an elevation direction between a first position and a second position. For each armrest, the movable panel of that armrest includes an upper panel portion at least partially delimiting the receiving surface of that armrest extending in a first plane, and a side panel portion separate from the upper panel portion extending in a second plane, different from the first plane, the side panel portion having a heating element configured, when activated, to diffuse heat.

A modular side lining for a motor vehicle includes a fastener, a first lining member including a first surface along an edge of the first lining member and at least one receiver for receiving the fastener, and a second lining member including a second surface along an edge of the second lining member. The second surface abuts the first surface to form a split line, and an extension extending from the second surface has at least one hole for receiving the fastener.

A door assembly for a vehicle includes a door, an inflator mounted to the door, and a passive restraint. The passive restraint has a first airbag chamber and a second airbag chamber. The first airbag chamber is in communication with the inflator and is inflatable from an uninflated position to an inflated position. The second airbag chamber is in communication with the inflator and is inflatable from an uninflated position to an inflated position. The first airbag chamber in the inflated position extends transverse to the second airbag chamber in the inflated position.

A vehicle trim assembly is provided having a beverage retainer formed in a storage compartment on the door of an automotive vehicle. The trim assembly includes a storage receptacle and a trim component such as a trim panel arranged to define at least a portion of the storage receptacle. The trim panel includes a base portion connected to a beverage retainer portion via a living hinge. The beverage retainer portion is pivoted about the living hinge into position within the storage receptacle. The trim assembly may include a trim component assembled onto a pillar and pivoted about the living hinge between a use position and a stored position.

An input apparatus for a vehicle includes a cover member for covering an upper part of an input unit installed in a center plate provided between a driver seat and a passenger seat, wherein the cover member moves forward from a center console located in a back part of the center plate to cover the upper part of the input unit.

A modular system for a vehicle, in particular a motor vehicle, whereby the vehicle is to be provided with a selected instrument panel and at least one selected door, which can be arranged on the vehicle in a pivotal manner in order to close or release a vehicle door opening adjoining the instrument panel, whereby the modular system has at least two different instrument panels and/or at least two different doors for selection, whereby each instrument panel has a first joint region, and each door has a second joint region which corresponds to the first joint region such that each first joint region and the respective second joint region always form the same joint in the closed position of the door.

A laminated composite part includes a first member and a second member. The first member has a predetermined mating surface. The second member has a plate-like portion substantially parallel to the mating surface and having a multiplicity of protrusions formed, and is set on the first member such that the protrusions contact the mating surface. The laminated composite part further includes a curved portion curved so as to provide a recessed design surface, in which an engagement protrusion protruding more than the protrusions is formed integrally with the curved portion of one of the first and second members, located on the design surface side, an insertion hole in which the engagement protrusion is relatively inserted is formed in the other member of the first and second members, and the engagement protrusion is inserted in the insertion hole and is retained so as not to come off from the insertion hole.
