A vehicular interior component includes a body member being in form of a plate shape having a plate surface, a skin disposed on the plate surface of the body member, the skin including an elastic layer that is on the plate surface of the body member and is not electrically conductive and has elasticity and an electricity removal surface layer that is disposed on the elastic layer and configured as a surface of the skin and has static dissipative properties, and an electrically conductive member being electrically conductive and disposed on the body member, the electrically conductive member including a retainer that retains an edge portion of the skin. The elastic layer included in the edge portion of the skin is compressed by the retainer from an electricity removal surface layer side and the electrically conductive member is to be electrically connected to a metal panel.

A window device for a vehicle, the window device including: a light-transmitting plate having light-transmitting property and fixed to a vehicle body to physically partition an exterior and an interior of the vehicle; a light-shielding body having light-shielding property and provided along the light-transmitting plate within a view of a vehicle occupant; and a moving mechanism configured to move the light-shielding body up and down so as to widen or narrow a view obtained through the light-transmitting plate above the light-shielding body.

A skin material for vehicle interior includes a woven fabric woven by using a side emission type optical fiber and a multifilament as warp or weft, and is joined to a substrate for vehicle interior to constitute a vehicle interior material. In a surface of the woven fabric which constitutes the inside of a vehicle compartment, a virtual surface constituted by connecting side surfaces, on the inside of the vehicle compartment, of the side emission type optical fibers is in close vicinity to the substrate for vehicle interior, as compared with a virtual surface constituted by connecting side surfaces, on the inside of the vehicle compartment, of the multifilaments. Examples of the vehicle interior material in which the skin material for vehicle interior is used include door trims and roof trims.

A grommet has retention wings and a distal end of a barrel with pin retention pawls. The pin retention pawls include an inner retention tooth with a lead-in ramp surface facing toward the grommet head. A lead-out ramp surface is distal of the lead-in ramp surface and facing away from the grommet head. A pin includes a recess receiving the inner retention tooth, with a pin head facing surface positioned and designed to engage the lead-out surface and radially outwardly displace the pin retention pawls during removal of the pin from the grommet. A distal facing outer surface of the pin engages the lead-in surface and radially outwardly displaces the pin retention pawls during insertion of the pin into the grommet. A two-shot molding method of manufacturing is also provided.

A method of producing a die for forming an interior component of a vehicle includes: setting a temperature of a plating bath in a range from 25 to 40° C.; immersing at least a forming surface on a base for the die in the plating bath; and feeding a current to the base with a current density in a range from 20 to 80 A/dm.sup.2 until a metal layer is formed on the forming surface.

Provided is a bushing for manufacturing a three-dimensional composite preform using a tow made of a fiber reinforced polymer. The bushing includes a base plate in which one or more through-holes are formed, and a plurality of spools spaced apart from each other on the base plate. A flat top is formed at an end portion of the spools, and grooves are formed on outer surfaces of the plurality of spools in a circumferential direction thereof.

Interior panel and body assembly features for vehicles that include the placement of panel tabs on vehicle interior panels, with the panel tabs on the interior panels having features for interactive attachment of the interior panels with vehicle body portions via corresponding body tabs on each vehicle body portion. The interactive attachment aspects of the panel tabs operating with the body tabs may further assist in properly locating each interior panel relative to a vehicle body portions. When the interior panel is installed on the vehicle body, each panel tab attaches the interior panel to the corresponding body portion via a body tab, so as to enhance the strength of the attachment, such as at an edge location where standard attachment clips cannot be used, thereby improving positioning and good fit and finish, while maximizing interior space capacity.

An interior component of a vehicle comprises a carrier having a front face directed toward a passenger compartment of the vehicle and an opposite rear face; a speaker including an at least partially transparent diaphragm and a transducer coupled to the diaphragm. Movement of the transducer causes vibration of the diaphragm to generate sound by vibration of the diaphragm, the diaphragm having a front face directed towards the passenger compartment and an opposite rear face. The carrier provides a support along at least part of the periphery of the diaphragm where the diaphragm is attached to the carrier where the front face and the rear face of the diaphragm are free of the carrier across a part of the diaphragm surface so that the diaphragm is suspended in the carrier of the interior component.

A vehicle door, a vehicle and a driving training system are provided, and relates to the technical field of driving training, wherein the vehicle door includes: a door body, wherein a door handle is provided on an inner side of the door body; and a target object detection apparatus, provided on the inner side of the door body, wherein the target object detection apparatus is configured for detecting whether there is a target object at a target area under a preset condition, and the target area is formed on the inner side of the door body and spaced apart from the door handle by a preset distance.

A boarding/deboarding support structure includes a lower door having an upper end configured to be rotated and opened with respect to a bottom surface of a vehicle body, a lower trim located inside the lower door, the lower trim having an upper end configured to be rotated and opened with respect to a floor of the vehicle body, and an absorbing member having at least a portion supported by the lower door and a rear surface of the lower trim, the absorbing member being configured to absorb energy, wherein the lower trim is located between the floor of the vehicle body and an inner surface of the lower door, and wherein, when the lower door is opened, the absorbing member is deployed to be located between the lower trim and the lower door.
