In at least certain embodiments, the present invention relates to a trim panel made by providing a molding tool system comprising a first mold half, a second mold half, and a third mold half and positioning the first mold half and the second mold half proximate each other to form a first mold cavity. In certain embodiments, the method further comprises introducing a first resin into the first mold cavity to form a trim panel skin and positioning the first mold cavity with the trim panel skin and the third mold half with a trim panel substrate spaced from the trim panel skin to form a second mold cavity. In this embodiment, the method further comprises introducing a second resin into the second mold cavity to form a resilient layer extending between and connecting the trim panel skin and the trim panel substrate.

An energy absorption device for use in a vehicle interior includes a first body having a protrusion defining an axially extending outer serrated surface, and a second body having a cavity defining an axially extending inner serrated surface. The protrusion is at least partially inserted into the cavity to at least partially support the first body relative to the second body. Upon an impact at least partially in the axial direction, one of the protrusion and the cavity is moved relative to the other to absorb at least some of the impact energy. An energy absorption vehicle interior assembly includes an energy absorption device connected between an interior vehicle trim member and a vehicle trim mounting member.

The present invention provides for an improved bolster with a soft feel for use in a trim assembly, and to a continuous two-shot molding operation that may be continuously performed utilizing a single mold assembly. In an exemplary embodiment, the bolster includes a substrate formed by co-injecting a first and second material into a first shot mold cavity in a first shot of a molding operation. In a second shot mold cavity, a cover is formed on at least a portion of the substrate by co-injecting into a mold chamber a third and fourth material in a second shot of the molding operation. The fourth material defines an outer skin surrounding the third material which may include a foamed material to provide a soft, light cellular inner core such that when a force is applied to the cover, the outer skin will deform and compress the inner core, providing a soft feel to the bolster.

A two-shot injection molding process and molded part. The two-shot skin material is molded in a non-final condition and wrapped over the substrate in a post molding operation to create a seamless part. The flap material which is molded out of its final position is held in place by gluing, mechanical interlocking, crimping, or the like.

An energy absorbing countermeasure for motor vehicle doors comprises a body having at least a first zone and a second zone. Each zone has at least one surface with recesses in the surface and portions between recesses. The portions are broken upon impact and enter into the recess to exhibit energy absorbing efficiency. The recesses in the first zone are arranged or configured to absorb a first desired peak load during impact and the recesses in the second zone are arranged or configured to absorb a second desired peak load during impact. The first desired peak load is different from the second desired peak load.

A motor vehicle interior trim component comprises a substrate and covering material injection molded onto at least a portion of the substrate. The covering material has gas-encapsulating elements therein. The gas-encapsulating elements have a property of elastic recovery when the gas-encapsulating elements are pressed until they are deformed and then the pressure is relieved. A method for forming the trim component comprises a step of forming a first mold space and injecting a first material into the first mold space so that the first material substantially conforms to the shape of the first mold space to form a substrate. In another step, a second mold space is formed and a second material is injected into the second mold space so that the second material substantially conforms to the shape of the second mold space to form a covering material over the substrate. The second material is softer than the first material and has gas-encapsulating elements therein.

A ribbed armrest for inclusion in an automobile door assembly includes a substrate section and a ribbed armrest section. The ribbed armrest section is over-molded onto the substrate section which provides support thereto. The ribbed armrest section includes a plurality of ribs that provide flexibility and a soft cushioned feel. A method of forming the ribbed armrest include a step in which the substrate is injection molded followed by a step in which the armrest section is injection molded onto the substrate section. Trim panels and door assemblies incorporating the ribbed armrest are also provided.

A polyurethane resin includes polyol and isocyanate residues which together form a base resin. The polyurethane resin further includes a plurality of hollow beads dispersed therein such that the density of the polyurethane resin is less than the density of the base resin. A method for forming the polyurethane resin comprises mixing hollow beads the polyol and/or isocyanate prior to spraying onto a substrate.
