Abstract
Méthode de fabrication de composants tels que des roues de véhicule (10) comprenant une base de polystyrène (28) moulée selon la configuration générale de la face ornamentale (22) et un revêtement plastique (26) moulé sur la base et fixé mécaniquement à celle-ci afin d'éviter la séparation. Le recouvrement plastique (26) est moulé sur la base (24) à l'aide d'un procédé de moulage par injection sous basse pression de façon à maintenir l'intégrité de la base moulée (24). Le revêtement plastique (26) passe autour des parties de la base (24) de manière à assurer une fixation sûre entre la base (24) et le recouvrement (26). La méthode peut être employée pour la fabrication de divers composants d'automobile comprenant des disques enjoliveurs, des béquets avant et arrière.Method of manufacturing components such as vehicle wheels (10) comprising a polystyrene base (28) molded according to the general configuration of the ornamental face (22) and a plastic coating (26) molded on the base and mechanically fixed to that -this to avoid separation. The plastic cover (26) is molded on the base (24) using a low pressure injection molding process so as to maintain the integrity of the molded base (24). The plastic covering (26) passes around the parts of the base (24) so as to ensure a secure fixing between the base (24) and the covering (26). The method can be used to manufacture various automotive components including hubcaps, front and rear spoilers.
