A weather strip including a bottom wall, a first lateral wall and a second lateral wall and in which an angle between the bottom wall and the first lateral wall is constant and an angle between the bottom wall and the second lateral wall is partially varied in a longitudinal direction is manufactured. The method includes: a first step of pre-forming the angle of the first lateral wall and the angle of the second lateral wall to be constant and equal to or larger than final maximum angles; a second step of regulating a boundary between the bottom wall and the second lateral wall from moving toward the first lateral wall by a regulating member; a third step of partially varying the angle of the second lateral wall by a movable roller; and a fourth step of forming the angle of the first lateral wall by a fine-movable roller.

The present invention relates to a module for doors, tailgates or similar, to be installed in vehicles for the insulation of the wet areas from the dry areas of the structures of said doors, tailgates or similar, executed by means of a process of bi-injection or multiple injection, in which a monoblock module with regard to the support panel and the seal is formed, its configuration including a sealing gasket with at least two sealing lips inclined towards the inside of the support panel with respect to the assembly direction, one of them being configured to not overlap with the other lip.

A joining material for laser welding, a laser welding method using the same, and a laser joined body using the laser welding method. The joining material includes a polymer matrix and a needle-shaped inorganic filler. The polymer matrix includes a polypropylene resin having a melt index of 80 g/10 min or more to 95 g/10 min or less as measured at a temperature of 230° C. and a load of 2.16 kg, and the needle-shaped inorganic filler has an aspect ratio of 10:1 to 20:1.

A board includes fibers and thermoplastic resin and has a first surface and a second surface that is opposite from the first surface. The board includes a flat body member having edges, a bent portion, a hole, and a filling portion that is made of thermoplastic resin and in the hole. The bent portion extends from one of the edges of the flat body member and includes an edge of the board. The bent portion includes an angled portion that extends along the one of the edges of the flat body member and the bent portion extends from the angled portion at an inclination angle with respect to the flat body member such that the first surface of the angled portion is stretched. The hole is in the first surface of the angled portion.

A component comprising a sheet-like reinforcing component having a first stiffness and a sheet-like attachment made of an attachment material having a second stiffness, wherein the first stiffness is higher than the second stiffness, wherein the planar reinforcing component has an upper and lower side and the attachment is connected at least to the upper or lower side of the planar reinforcing component in a first partial area of the planar reinforcing component.

A trim component for an interior of a motor vehicle has a film and has a carrier from a thermoplastic plastics material. The film has a relief structure, the carrier has a lattice structure having lattice members, and the carrier is back-molded on a rear side of the film such that the lattice members are connected in a materially integral manner to the rear side of the film.

A process for manufacturing a motor vehicle part, wherein the part is produced by molding a filled thermoplastic material, the part thus molded is subsequently reinforced by positioning locally and at the surface of the part at least one reinforcing element including strips of unidirectional continuous fibers, the strips being deposited non-continuously on the part in at least one stress concentration zone.
