Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Plakette zur Befestigung eines Emblemschildes an einer Gassack-Abdeckung für Fahrzeuginsassen-Rückhaltesysteme.The invention relates to a badge for attaching an emblem to an airbag cover for vehicle occupant restraint systems.
Emblemschilder von Kraftfahrzeugherstellern werden heutzutage drucktechnisch mit hohem Qualitätsniveau hergestellt. Es gibt jedoch nur wenige Möglichkeiten, die Emblemschilder hochfest mit der Abdeckung eines Gassacks für ein Fahrzeuginsassen-Rückhaltesystem zu verbinden. Üblicherweise werden die gedruckten Emblemschilder daher mit einem Grundträger verklebt. Aus dieser Art der Verbindung resultieren zum einen verfahrenstechnische Probleme beim Kleben und zum anderen entstehen Risiken in bezug auf die Lebensdauer der Klebeverbindung.Emblem signs from motor vehicle manufacturers are nowadays produced with high quality in terms of printing technology. However, there are only a few options for connecting the emblem plates to the cover of an airbag for a vehicle occupant restraint system in a high-strength manner. Usually, the printed emblem signs are therefore glued to a base support. On the one hand, this type of connection results in procedural problems when gluing and, on the other hand, there are risks in relation to the life of the glued connection.
