Title:
INTEGRATED SUNSHADE DESIGN
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/174352
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A trim panel for a door of a vehicle that wherein both sunshade and non- sunshade versions of the trim panel are manufactured on the same equipment, thus eliminating the need to prepare separate molds for each trim panel. Both the sunshade and non-sunshade versions of the trim panel share essentially the same components and dimension except that the sunshade trim panel has an upper surface that terminates prior to a corresponding surface of the non-sunshade trim panel. This feature allows both trim panels to be made on the same equipment and then installed as needed depending on whether a given door will include a sunshade assembly.
