Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A lining component for lining a passenger cell of a motor vehicle is multifunctional. The lining component has at least one acoustic resonator which is open towards the passenger cell and/or at least a fluid chamber through which a temperature control medium is flowable.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A component for a passenger cell of a motor vehicle, comprising: a lining component configured to line the passenger cell, the lining component comprising one or both of: at least one acoustic resonator which is open toward the passenger cell, and at least one fluid chamber through which a temperature-control medium is flowable, wherein a resonator space of the resonator is arranged on a side of the fluid chamber that faces away from the passenger cell, and at least one duct communicatively connected to the resonator space penetrates through the fluid chamber and opens into a resonator opening at a front side of the lining component that faces the passenger cell. 2. The component according to claim 1 , wherein at least one air duct open toward the passenger cell is formed in a rectilinear or at least partially curved manner and penetrates through the lining component from a rear side of the lining component that faces away from the passenger cell to a front side of the lining component that faces the passenger cell. 3. A component for a passenger cell of a motor vehicle, comprising: a lining component configured to line the passenger cell, the lining component comprising one or both of: at least one acoustic resonator which is open toward the passenger cell, and at least one fluid chamber through which a temperature-control medium is flowable, wherein the lining component is formed in one piece. 4. The component according to claim 3 , wherein the lining component is an additive manufactured lining component. 5. A motor vehicle comprising: a passenger cell; and a passenger cell lining which partially lines the passenger cell, wherein the passenger cell lining has at least one component according to claim 1 . 6. The motor vehicle according to claim 5 , further comprising: at least one ventilation and/or air-conditioning unit which is communicatively connected to the air duct of the lining component for ventilating the passenger cell. 7. The motor vehicle according to claim 6 , further comprising: at least one fluid supply device which is communicatively connected to the fluid chamber of the lining component for supplying the fluid chamber with the temperature-control medium. 8. The motor vehicle according to claim 5 , further comprising: at least one fluid supply device which is communicatively connected to the fluid chamber of the lining component for supplying the fluid chamber with the temperature-control medium.
