    Abstract: A trim component for a vehicle interior is disclosed. The trim panel is prepared from a fiber panel. The trim component may be formed by concurrent compression forming and injection molding of the fiber panel within a single mold apparatus. Thermoplastic resin may be melted and injected to the back side of the fiber panel to improve structural rigidity and create greater strength difference between adjacent areas. The trim panel may provide at least one score line on the back side configured to direct airbag deployment. The score line may be compression formed onto the backside of the trim panel. The score line may reduce the strength of the area of the trim panel near the score line. Less energy may be required to break through the trim panel during air bag deployment. The trim panel may also provide a smooth visible surface.

    Abstract translation: 公开了用于车辆内部的修剪组件。 装饰板由纤维板制成。 装饰部件可以通过在单个模具装置内同时压缩成型和注塑成型纤维面板而形成。 热塑性树脂可能会熔化并注入到纤维面板的背面,以提高结构刚度并在相邻区域之间产生更大的强度差异。 装饰面板可以在背面提供至少一条构造成引导气囊展开的划线。 划线可以被压缩形成在装饰板的背面上。 刻痕线可能会降低刻痕线附近饰板面积的强度。 在安全气囊展开期间,可能需要更少的能量来穿透饰板。 装饰面板也可以提供平滑的可见表面。
