Abstract: A structurally reinforced cross-car beam is comprised of a plastic material impregnated with long reinforcement fibers. The long reinforcement fibers have a length of at least three-quarters of an inch. The plastic material may be a thermoplastic and the reinforcement fibers may be comprised of glass fibers. The cross-car beam may also include a first portion comprised of a metallic material, such as magnesium, and a second portion comprised of the plastic material impregnated with long reinforcement fibers.

Abstract: An automotive component (10) and a method for manufacturing the same are disclosed. The component (10) comprises a core portion (14) formed of a first material and a second portion (18) integral with the core portion (14) and formed of a second material. In one illustrated embodiment, the first and second materials have different material property characteristics. For example, the first material can be made of a relatively harder plastic material than the second material made of a softtouch plastic material. The method for manufacturing the component comprises the steps of injecting the first material into a first cavity of a mold to form the core portion (14), altering the mold cavity to form a second cavity and injecting the second material into the second cavity while the first material is in a reactive state to form the second portion (18) of the component. Because the first material is in the reactive state, the second material is integrally formed with the first material.

Abstract translation: 公开了一种汽车部件（10）及其制造方法。 部件（10）包括由第一材料形成的芯部（14）和与芯部（14）成一体并由第二材料形成的第二部分（18）。 在一个示出的实施例中，第一和第二材料具有不同的材料特性。 例如，第一材料可以由比柔软的塑料材料制成的第二种材料更硬的塑料材料制成。 制造部件的方法包括以下步骤：将第一材料注入模具的第一腔体中以形成芯部分（14），改变模腔以形成第二腔体，并将第二材料注入第二腔体，同时 第一材料处于反应状态以形成部件的第二部分（18）。 由于第一材料处于反应状态，所以第二材料与第一材料一体形成。
