C10G 75/04 - Inhibiting corrosion or fouling in apparatus for treatment or conversion of hydrocarbon oils, in general by addition of antifouling agents
The invention relates to a method for producing interconnected components of an interior-trim part which comprise at least one at least partially translucent decorative layer (11), at least one at least to some extent transparent body (10) and at least one opaque structural part (12), wherein the at least to some extent transparent body (10) and the opaque structural part (12) are produced as a multi-component structural part by the plastics injection-moulding process, characterized by at least the following method steps: producing the opaque structural part (12) by the plastics injection-moulding process in a first cavity of a mould (100), transferring the opaque structural part (12) into at least part of a second cavity of the mould (100), wherein a carrier film (T), carrying the translucent decorative layer (11), is positioned in another part of the second cavity in such a way that an intermediate space (Z) remains between the decorative layer (11) and the opaque structural part (12), producing the at least to some extent transparent body (10) in the intermediate space (Z) by a plastics injection-moulding process, removing from the mould (100) a composite part (V) comprising the at least partially translucent decorative layer (11), the at least to some extent transparent body (10) and the opaque structural part (12).

METHOD FOR CALCULATING A TRAJECTORY, CALCULATING UNIT, AND MOTOR VEHICLE
The invention relates to a method for calculating a trajectory of a motor vehicle (1) using a calculating unit (2) in order to park a motor vehicle (1) by an electric charging column (8) with a charging cable (9) or a charging plug socket. The calculating unit (2) calculates an optimal trajectory into a parking space by the charging column (8) at least on the basis of the position of the charging cable (9) or the charging plug socket at the charging column (8), the position of a charging plug socket (4) on the motor vehicle (1), and the position of the parking space for the charging station (8). The invention also relates to a calculating unit (2) and a motor vehicle (1).

BELT DEFLECTION APPARATUSES FOR A SAFETY BELT DEVICE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE
The invention relates to a belt deflection apparatus for a safety belt device of a motor vehicle, comprising: a main element (2) connectable to a belt lock of the safety belt device; and a belt contact element (3), which is movable relative to the main element (2) and which has a contact face (31) for the belt (S) of the safety belt device, the main element (2) comprising two guide portions (23a, 23b), which are arranged on opposite sides of the belt contact element (3), for guiding the belt contact element (3). According to the invention, lateral belt-conducting portions (32a, 32b) adjoin the contact face (31) of the belt contact element (3) and there is a gap (4a, 4b) between at least one of the guide portions (23a, 23b) and one of the belt-conducting portions (32a, 32b), the at least one belt-conducting portion (32a, 32b) being designed such that it conducts the belt (S) with a loading parallel to the contact face (31) and in the direction of the gap (4a, 4b), in such a way that the belt (S) runs at least in portions at an incline over the gap (4a, 4b).
