Abstract:
A vehicle interior decor element, in particular an air bag cover, comprising a front side (36) facing the vehicle interior and an opposite rear side (34), a cover (18) and a decorative element (20) which is provided at the cover (18), is visible from the front and is at least partly translucent. The decorative element (20) includes sections (24) between which the decorative element (20) has a gap (26) through which the cover (18) is accessible from the front side (36). The decorative element (20) extends with at least one portion (44) thereof towards the rear side (34) towards or into a cavity (42) which is formed in the cover (18) and in which an illuminant (50) for illuminating the decorative element (20) is accommodated.
Abstract:
A gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint system includes a gas bag (12) and a discharge arrangement (18). The discharge arrangement (18) has a unit able to be activated (26) by a control arrangement (19) for selectively providing a discharge opening. The unit able to be activated (26) is arranged on a mounting (24) which performs a hinge function upon activation of the unit (26).
Abstract:
A gas bag module has a housing, which comprises a cover part, at least one side wall that is joined to the cover part, and a base section that is joined to the side wall. The housing opens along a plurality of predetermined separation lines when the gas bag module is activated, to allow the emergence of a gas bag. The separation lines run across the cover part, the side wall and/or and the base section such that, after activation of the gas bag module, the housing becomes separated into parts along the separation lines into a plurality of segments that are not directly connected to each other. Each segment includes a section of the cover part, the side wall and the base section.
Abstract:
An assembly comprises a steering wheel and a gas bag module held in a hub region of the steering wheel, the gas bag module being movable in an axial direction of the steering wheel for actuating a horn. The assembly further comprises at least one restoring element having at least one elastic section. The elastic section exerts onto the gas bag module a restoring force acting against an actuating force for the horn. The elastic section extends between a module housing and a fastening for the restoring element provided in the hub region of the steering wheel. The elastic section is securely and non-displaceably connected at one end with the module housing and at another end with the fastening in the hub region. The elastic section has between the ends a contact section which forms an electric horn contact.

Abstract:
A gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint system includes a housing and a gas bag (12) accommodated in the housing. The gas bag has a gas bag wall (16). The gas bag module further includes a discharge arrangement (18) having an energetic element (22) for the selective provision of a discharge opening. The energetic element (22) is able to be activated by a control unit (20). The discharge opening is provided by material conversion of the energetic element (22).
Abstract:
A gas bag module (10) comprises a gas generator (16) and a generator carrier (12), to which the gas generator (16) is fastened and via which the gas generator (16) can be fastened directly or indirectly to a vehicle steering wheel (100). The generator carrier (12) consists at least partially of a multiple-component plastic (30, 32). There is further proposed a vehicle steering wheel (100) including such gas bag module (10).
Abstract:
A device, in particular a vehicle interior component, includes a base body (10) made of a first plastic material which is suitable for injection molding and for coating with chromium. The device furthermore includes at least one elastic partial body (16, 18) molded to the base body (10), which is made of a second plastic material which is suitable for injection molding, but not for coating with chromium. A method for manufacturing such a device with a base body (10) coated with chromium comprises the following steps: injection molding a base body (10) of the first plastic material; injection molding the partial body (16, 18) of the second plastic material to the base body (10); electroplating a chromium coating onto the base body (10), wherein the base body (10) passes through a chrome-plating bath together with the integrally molded partial body (16, 18).
Abstract:
A gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint system includes a gas generator carrier (14) with a base (16) and with a peripheral wall (18), and also a covering cap (24) with a side wall (30) extending from a front wall (26) of the covering cap (24). Detent hooks (32) are formed on the edge of the side wall (30) facing away from the front wall (26), which engage into corresponding detent openings (34) in the base (16) of the gas generator carrier (14).
Abstract:
A gas bag module for a vehicle occupant restraint device includes a rigid component (16). The rigid component (16) has a discharge opening (14) formed therein through which gas can escape. A control element (10) is arranged at the discharge opening (14). The control element (10) assumes a rolled-up state in the case of low pressure action and assumes an unrolled state in the case of greater pressure action.
