A passenger's seat airbag device is mounted on a vehicle in which a rear wall portion is arranged on the rear side of a side window. The airbag is folded and housed on the upper edge side of the side window to cover the side window. The airbag is mounted on its two longitudinal ends. The rear side leading end is mounted on the rear wall portion. In the vicinity of the corner portion a guide guides the downward protrusion of the airbag and can regulate the movement of the airbag to the interior side when the airbag is extending and expanding.

A guide plate 45 is placed at a guiding and holding member 42 which is fixed to a region of an inner panel 34 adjacent to the upper end portion 49A of a B pillar garnish. The guide plate 45 has a base end portion 45A which extends from the vehicle interior side to the vehicle exterior side. The base end portion 45A is fixed to the guiding and holding member 42. The cross sectional configuration of the guide plate 45 when viewed from the vehicle front is formed in a substantial U shape which surrounds the folded air bag body and whose opening portion faces the outer side of the vehicle interior. When the air bag body is expanded, the guide plate 45 is extended as well so as to cover the upper end portion 49A of the center pillar garnish 49. As a result, the air bag body can expand more smoothly, and the displacement of the center pillar garnish from the vehicle body can be prevented.

A grille shutter device selectively opening and closing a grille opening in the front grille of a vehicle. The grille shutter device includes a fin, a motor, a transmission mechanism, a first switch, and a second switch. The fin has a support shaft, which is rotatably supported by the front grille. When supplied with electricity, the motor rotates its output shaft in one direction. The transmission mechanism converts the rotation of the output shaft to a swinging motion of the fin, thereby swinging the fin between a closed position, where the fin closes the grille opening, and an open position, where the fin opens the grille opening. When the fin is swung to the closed position, the first switch stops the motor. When the fin is swung to the open position, the second switch stops the motor.

An assist grip includes hinges, spring cases, and coil springs. The hinges are provided with a rotary axis that a shaft-shaped protrusion and a pin make. The shaft-shaped protrusion is formed integrally with the hinges. The pin is formed independently of the hinges. The spring cases are held in a depression with which the hinges are provided, respectively. The coil springs urge the hinges by way of the spring cases in a direction for accommodating the hinges into hinge-holding depressions with which the assist grip is provided. The setup enables the resulting assist grip to offer better assemblage workability for assembly workers or robots, to show a better appearance, and to exhibit higher strength in service.

A radiator grille, or ornament, includes a base material which transmits visible light and is made of an acrylic resin, a first ornamental layer coating the front surface of the base material, and a second ornamental layer coating the rear surface of the base material. The first and second ornamental layers each transmit visible light and have a thickness that is less than the wavelength of the visible light. It is preferred that the first ornamental layer and the second ornamental layer differ from each other in at least one of material, number of layers, thickness, refractive index of visible light, reflectance of visible light, absorptivity of visible light, and transmittance of visible light. The first ornamental layer is a hard coating layer, and the second ornamental layer is a hard coating layer or vapor deposition layer.

A resin product (e.g., a millimeter-wave radar device cover) comprises a plate-like resin substrate, a base film formed on the resin substrate, and a metallic gloss film having a discontinuous structure formed on the base film, a top coat, a block coat, or the like being formed as a protective film on the metal film. The metal film contains a first film having a discontinuous structure obtainable by vacuum deposition of a first metal, a modified surface obtainable by modification of the surface of the first film by bringing the surface into contact with air, and a second film having a discontinuous structure obtainable by vacuum deposition of a second metal on the modified surface.

A radar device is placed rearward of a vehicle decorative component in a vehicle. The decorative component is located in the path of radar waves emitted from the radar device, and has a two-layer structure with a back layer and a protective layer. The protective layer is made of a transparent resin material, and the back surface of the protective layer contacts the front surface of the back layer. The back layer is made of a resin material. The front surface of the back layer includes a front contact surface on which ground pattern is formed. The protective layer and the back layer have the same refractive index. Thus, the decorative component has an improved transparency of radar waves.

An interior finish member having a door suitable for an air bag comprises a main body and a cover portion. The main body surrounds the periphery of the cover portion, and the main body and the cover portion form a continuous surface. The cover portion covers a folded air bag of an air bag device. The cover portion comprises: a door portion which covers the folded air bag; a breakable portion defined by a recessed periphery of the door portion whose thickness is thinner than adjacent portions of the interior finish member so that it may be broken easily in deployment of the air bag; and a hinge portion for connecting the door portion with the main body and for providing a pivot around which the door portion rotates when the door portion opens under a force of an expanding air bag. The main body is made of thermoplastic resin, and the cover portion is made of thermoplastic elastomer. Because they are capable of thermally fusing with each other, the main body and the cover portion can be integrally formed.

The air bag cover has a skin layer on the surface side of the cover and a core on the back surface side of the cover. The cover is disposed so as to cover an air bag. The air bag cover has a breakable portion which is broken when the air bag expands. The breakable portion is formed by providing a continuous or intermittent concave portion on the back surface side of the air bag cover. A fragile layer lower in tensile strength than the skin layer is fused to the back surface side of the skin layer.
