“IMPROVEMENT INTRODUCED IN THE PROCESS OF OBTAINING THERMO-STRUCTURAL COMPOSITES”, resulting from the union of various synthetic materials (F), which go through a phase of couplings (union of materials), to be subsequently heated and pressed into molds (M) of specific size for each part to be molded, at temperatures and pressure suitable for the fusion of these elements, featured by the fact that the thereto-structural composite (1) is obtained from the formation of the substrate (S), with the synthetic fiber molding (F), foams, etc., preferably Non-Woven (NW-TNT)+PE Film+Fiberglass+Semi-Rigid PU Foam embedded in a chemical formulation (FO) of Diphenylmethane Diisocyanate (MDI) in a ratio of 30% to 80% and Methylene Chloride (CM) in the ratio of 20% to 70%; and for processing the product, a catalyst prepared from Dabco Cristal in the ratio of 1% to 30% is used; by adding 70% to 99% water, said substrate (S) may, during the hot-molding phase, receive the addition of finishes (5) and, after the molding phase, receive the addition of minor and complementary structural elements (6).

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 rotation system for a vehicle sun visor that includes a rod coupled to the vehicle sun visor, wherein the rod is configured to couple to a vehicle to support the vehicle sun visor within an interior of the vehicle, and the rod is configured to facilitate rotation of the vehicle sun visor about the rod. The rotation system also includes a contact element non-rotatably coupled to the rod. The rotation system further includes a biasing element configured to urge a contact surface against the contact element to control rotation of the vehicle sun visor about the rod.

A composite foam article comprises a foam core layer presenting a first surface and a second surface facing opposite the first surface. A first polymeric bonding layer is disposed on the first surface, one or more first reinforcing layers comprising a plurality of fibers and a polymeric binder are disposed on the first polymeric bonding layer, and a first polymeric containment layer is disposed on the one or more first reinforcing layers. A second polymeric bonding layer is disposed on the second surface, one or more second reinforcing layers comprising a plurality of fibers and a polymeric binder are disposed on the second polymeric bonding layer, and a second polymeric containment layer is disposed on the one or more second reinforcing layers. At least one catch layer comprising particles of carbon is dispersed in and/or disposed between any of the aforementioned layers.
