HEADLINER-MOUNTED TELEMATICS CONTROL UNIT PACKAGE

A roof structure of a motor vehicle includes an outer sheet and a headliner below the outer sheet. A telematics control unit (TCU) is disposed in an insulated space of the roof structure. The TCU is configured to provide Wi-Fi within a passenger space of the vehicle above an electrically non-conductive grille extending across an opening in the headliner. The grille permits airflow between the insulated space and a passenger space below the headliner to cool the TCU, without interfering with Wi-Fi signals from the TCU.

VEHICULAR INTERIOR COMPONENT

A vehicular interior component to be mounted on a body panel includes a core layer having a vehicular exterior side surface and a cover layer covering the vehicular exterior side surface of the core layer and having a cover layer vehicular exterior surface. The cover layer includes a first section and a second section. The first section has a first vehicular exterior side surface that is flat and is a portion of the cover layer vehicular exterior surface and the second section has a second vehicular exterior side surface that is an uneven surface and is another portion of the cover layer vehicular exterior side surface. The second section includes projection portions that are to be contacted with the body panel or a vehicular component.

Extruded airbag ramp

An extruded side curtain airbag ramp including a tear-resistant material forming at least one attachment feature and method for manufacturing said extruded side curtain airbag ramp. The airbag ramp according to the present invention incorporates a plurality of extruded materials and provides an easier manufactured product and attachment.

METHODS FOR FORMING A HIDDEN AUDIO ASSEMBLY

Methods and systems are provided for a vehicle headliner. In one example, a method for forming the headliner includes forming a recess and an opening for a support structure in a base substrate layer of the headliner during heat treatment of the base substrate layer. The method further includes inserting the support structure in the recess and the opening and covering the base substrate layer with a skin. A positioning of the support structure within the base substrate layer allows an outline of the support structure to be undetectable through the skin by sight or touch.

Methods and systems for a vehicle headliner is provided. In one example, the headliner is a layered assembly, including a base substrate layer and a skin and is configured with a bracket inserted into the base substrate layer. The bracket has a top plate co-planar with a first surface of the base substrate layer and a continuous wall coupled to the top plate. The bracket is positioned in the base substrate layer such that the base substrate layer does not protrude into the skin.

BRACKET FOR A PILLAR ASSEMBLY

A bracket for a vehicle pillar includes a panel that has a face that is defined by an upper edge and a lower edge. An attachment tab is coupled to and outwardly extends from the panel. Upper retention features are coupled to the panel. Lower retention features are coupled to the panel and are adjacent to the attachment tab. Each of the upper retention features and each of the lower retention features define an annular recess.

The main body is formed from a particle foam, such as expanded polypropylene (EPP) or expanded polyethylene (EPE).

Resin molding and method for producing the same

To provide a resin molding and a method for producing the same. A resin molding includes a plate-like substrate including reinforcing fibers and a first thermoplastic resin binding the reinforcing fibers to each other, and an extension part that is constituted of an injection-molded member and is extended from an end surface of the substrate along the plate face direction of the substrate. It is preferred that the reinforcing fibers be plant fibers, such as kenaf. It is preferred that the substrate and the extension part be connected flush to each other on, of the one surface and the other surface of the connection part of the substrate and the extension part, at least the side of one surface. Moreover, the extension part may further be provided with a plate-like part that constitutes an outer edge part of the resin molding and forms a shape involute toward the other surface. The method for producing a resin molding includes a shaping step of shaping the substrate and an extension part formation step of forming the extension part by injection-molding.
