AUTOMOTIVE ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT DEVICE
An electronic equipment device includes a microphone member and a cap. The microphone member is positioned in a through hole of a roof lining provided in a vehicle interior and disposed in an indoor space, and disposed in an outdoor space. The cap is positioned in the through hole of the roof lining and fitted to the microphone member in a state of being disposed in the indoor space. The cap has a fitting portion, a strap portion, and a hooking portion. The fitting portion is fitted to the microphone member. The strap portion is provided in the outdoor space. The hooking portion is formed in the strap portion and hooked on the microphone member.
ENERGY ABSORBER BETWEEN VEHICLE ROOF AND HEADLINER
An assembly for a vehicle includes a vehicle roof and a headliner supported by the vehicle roof. The assembly includes an energy absorber between the headliner and the vehicle roof. The energy absorber includes a wall extending transversely to the headliner and the vehicle roof. The wall includes a lattice structure including a repeating pattern of strips and open cells.
Vehicle roof lining including a multifunction plate
A vehicle roof lining includes a roof lining, a rail structure, a multifunction plate, and sleds. The rail structure is provided on both side edges of the roof lining. The multifunction plate is provided on the roof lining, with one edge of the multifunction plate being movable along the rail structure. The sleds are movable along inner portions of the rail structure and are fastened with one edge of the multifunction plate.
Method of forming a headliner that includes shaped reinforcement brackets
A method of forming a headliner for a vehicle includes forming the headliner into a desired shape from one or more materials. The headliner includes a headliner cutout portion corresponding to an opening through the headliner. A reinforcement bracket preform is formed into the headliner cutout portion during the step of forming the headliner. The headliner cutout portion is removed from the headliner. The reinforcement bracket preform is removed from the headliner cutout portion and a shaped reinforcement bracket is formed.
Vehicle interior structure
An impact absorbing member is disposed between a roof panel and a top ceiling disposed below the roof panel. The impact absorbing member includes a base plate portion and a hollow, cone-shaped portion extending upward from the base plate portion. The cone-shaped portion has a fragile portion that facilitates vertical crush and deformation.
Passenger service unit having a covering, passenger seating area and vehicle having a passenger service unit
A passenger service unit, a passenger seating area, and a vehicle having a passenger service unit are provided, wherein the passenger service unit comprises a carrier element that can be extended in a longitudinal direction and a covering. The covering covers at least a section of the carrier element. At least one electrical and/or electronic element is integrated in the covering.
Low-Profile Panel Assembly for Providing Sound Within a Passenger Compartment of a Vehicle
A low-profile panel assembly configured to provide sound having at least one acoustic wavelength within a passenger compartment of a vehicle is provided. The vehicle has a support structure. The assembly includes a substrate panel perforated with at least one sub-wavelength hole which extends between front and back surfaces of the panel. The panel is configured to be attached to the support structure. A continuous membrane of facing material overlies and is in contact with the panel. The membrane is tightly stretched over and covers the at least one hole at the front surface of the panel. An electroacoustic sound source is configured to radiate acoustic waves against the back surface of the panel. The radiated acoustic waves travel through the at least one membrane-covered hole to vibrate at least one portion of the membrane which tightly covers the at least one hole. The at least one vibrating portion of the membrane radiates acoustic waves into the passenger compartment of the vehicle.
VEHICLE WITH A HEAD AIRBAG INTEGRATED INTO THE VEHICLE BODY
A vehicle with a head airbag integrated into the vehicle body, which is covered so as to be visually screened by a headliner that has a headliner opening for a functional component, in particular a reading light, wherein a fastening arrangement is provided on the reverse side of the headliner facing away from a passenger compartment, via which the functional component is secured. At least one shield element is associated with the fastening arrangement and is arranged between the head airbag and the fastening arrangement in a head airbag deployment direction, so that when an airbag deploys, a region of the fastening arrangement having interfering contours is shielded against the deploying head airbag.
Fixing method of wire harness
A fixing method of a wire harness is provided. A wire harness structure is formed by covering a wire harness with a sheet material in which a thermoplastic adhesive is coated on one surface including a required portion so as to fix the wire harness to the sheet material. The formed wire harness structure is spread on a roof liner. By pressuring the required portion warmed, the wire harness structure is fixed to the roof liner with the thermoplastic adhesive.
Module assembly mounted on headlining of vehicle
A module assembly is attached on a headlining of a vehicle and includes a base where an upper portion thereof is open, a first printed circuit board (PCB) and a second PCB sequentially stacked on a plurality of supporting pillars extending in a vertical direction to an inner bottom surface of the base and electrically connected to each other by a flexible cable, and a cover assembled with the base to cover the first and second PCBs stacked on the base.
