Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method for producing a trim part includes generating a surface covering, wherein the surface covering is generated by a knitting method and fastening elements are disposed on the surface covering. The carrier part is covered with the generated surface covering. Fixing elements are disposed on the carrier part. The fastening elements of the surface covering are connected in a form-fitting manner to the fixing elements of the carrier part.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for producing a trim part, comprising: generating a surface covering by a knitting method and disposing fastening elements on the surface covering; covering a carrier part with the generated surface covering, wherein fixing elements are disposed on the carrier part, and the fastening elements of the surface covering are connected in a form-fitting manner to the fixing elements of the carrier part. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening elements are disposed only in a peripheral region of a surface of the surface covering that faces the carrier part, and the peripheral region extends along a circumference of the surface covering. 3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening elements are disposed on a surface of the surface covering that faces the carrier part, and the fastening elements are distributed across the entire surface. 4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the fastening elements are knitted when generating the surface covering. 5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein pre-existing fastening elements are incorporated in the knitting of the surface covering when generating the surface covering. 6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein pre-existing fastening elements are stitched to the surface covering after the surface covering has been generated. 7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the surface covering, at least in portions, is connected in a materially integral manner to the carrier part. 8. A trim part, comprising: a knitted surface covering; and a carrier part, wherein fastening elements are disposed on the surface covering; fixing elements are disposed on the carrier part; and the fastening elements of the surface covering are connected in a form-fitting manner to the fixing elements of the carrier part. 9. The trim part according to claim 8 , wherein the fastening elements are knitted so as to be integral to the surface covering. 10. The trim part according to claim 8 , wherein the fastening elements are disposed on a surface of the surface covering that faces the carrier element, and the fixing elements are disposed on a surface of the carrier element that faces the surface covering.
