Abstract

A trim assembly includes at least one trim part for a vehicle, wherein the at least one trim part has at least one bearing device where, in order to provide advantageous construction conditions, the trim assembly includes at least one first emergency catch device having a first support, the at least one first emergency catch device includes at least one first catch bolt having a contact surface facing the at least one trim part and includes at least one first spacer, and the at least one first catch bolt and the at least one first spacer are connected to the first support so as to ensure the trim assembly is highly resistant to loss.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A trim assembly comprising:
at least one trim part for a vehicle, said at least one trim part including at least one bearing device; and
at least one first emergency catch device including a first support, said at least one first emergency catch device including at least one first catch bolt with a contact surface facing toward the at least one trim part and at least one first spacer;
wherein the at least first catch bolt and the at least first spacer are connected to the first support, and the at least one bearing device is configured to lock the at least one trim part to a vehicle chassis whereby withdrawal of the at least one first catch bolt from supporting said at least one trim part occurs.

2. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one trim part includes at least one first flap.

3. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least first flap is rotatably mounted about a first axis extending parallel to a chassis longitudinal axis of the vehicle.

4. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least first emergency catch device is connected to the at least one trim part.

5. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least first emergency catch device is connected to the at least one trim part.

6. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the at least first emergency catch device is connected to the at least one trim part.

7. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least first emergency catch device is configured for coupling to the at least one trim part via at least one first closure arranged on the at least one trim part.

8. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the at least first emergency catch device is configured for coupling to the at least one trim part via at least one first closure arranged on the at least one trim part.

9. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the at least first emergency catch device is configured for coupling to the at least one trim part via at least one first closure arranged on the at least one trim part.

10. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one first closure includes a first lock catch.

11. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one first closure is formed as a bolt lock with a locking stud.

12. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the first support includes at least one closure cut-out.

13. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 10 , wherein the first support includes at least one closure cut-out.

14. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the first support includes at least one closure cut-out.

15. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one trim part includes an opening in a region of the at least one first closure.

16. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein that the at least one first spacer is formed as an elastic buffer.

17. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one trim part is connected to a chassis of the vehicle via the at least one bearing device.

18. The trim assembly as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one trim part is connected to the chassis of the vehicle via the at least first emergency catch device.
