发明名称 VEHICLE INTERIOR ZERO GAP SYSTEM AND METHOD
摘要 A vehicle interior comprises a zero-gap joint formed by a first component that holds a sheet-like flexible material that is supported by supports, and a protrusion of a second component that contacts and deforms the material. The material may comprise a fabric or coated material that is coordinated with the design of the interior. The joint may be formed between components that move relative to one another during normal operation of the vehicle, such as between an instrument panel and a vehicle door panel.

主权项 1. A vehicle interior comprising: a first component comprising a support structure and a sheet-like flexible material disposed on the support structure and held taut between supports; and a second component comprising a protrusion that contacts and deforms the sheet-like flexible material from a relaxed configuration to a deformed configuration to create a zero-gap joint between the first and second components; wherein the first and second components cooperate to permit deformation of at least one of the first and second components or the sheet-like flexible material during overslam of a vehicle door and thereafter to return to a non-overslam condition.
