Abstract

The invention relates to a motor-vehicle bodywork element (12) comprising a bodywork part (14) formed from a semi-opaque material, behind which is placed a light source (16). The external surface (18) of the bodywork part (14) is coated with a coloured semi-transparent coating (20) possessing, when the light source (16) is turned off, predefined first trichromatic components. The internal surface of the bodywork part (14) is coated with an opaque coating (30) that comprises, facing the light source (16), a transparent region (32) through which the radiation of the light source (16) may pass. When the light source (16) is turned on, the wavelength of the radiation emitted by the light source passing through the transparent region (32), the bodywork part (14) and the coloured semi-transparent coating (20) is modified so that the external surface (18) possesses predefined second trichromatic components.

Abstract

An active grille shutter, capable of reducing frictions on a blade shaft (11), comprises a blade (1), a grille body (3), and an actuator cover (4). The grille body (3) is provided with a protection cover (31) cooperating with the actuator cover (4) to form a hollow protective structure (41). The protection cover (31) and the actuator cover (4) define a circular hole (311). The protective structure (41) communicates with the exterior through the circular hole (311). The blade (1) is provided with a rotating shaft (11) holding within the circular hole (311). The external surface of the shaft (11) is a convex surface. The active grille shutter solves the problem of excessive frictions when the blade shaft (11) moves by providing the blade shaft (11) with a convex surface.

The pin connection units (2) are alternatively arranged on both sides of the linkage rod (1) along the longitudinal direction of the linkage rod (1), and engage with the blades (3) of the bumper grille to form across-connection structure. By providing the convex rings (22) on the contact plane between the linkage rod (1) and the blades (3), the line-to-surface contact, instead of the surface-to-surface contact, is formed between the linkage rod (1) and the blades (3), so that frictions between them are reduced, and the load created by frictions on the actuator is accordingly reduced.

The bumper (3) is fixedly mounted onto the bumper bracket (2), and the bumper bracket (2) is provided with a first flexible positioning structure by which an assembled position of the hood (1) relative to the bumper bracket (2) is delimited such that the bumper (3) is matched with the hood (1) once assembled. A flexible positioning and connecting structure can determine the matching position of the hood (1) by the first flexible positioning structure and determine the matching position of the bumper (3) by a second flexible positioning structure. Thus, the presence of defects in the matching area between the bumper (3) and the hood (1) can be avoided, the disparity between an actual value and a theoretical value of the gap and the difference in surface alignment between the two can be reduced, and the theoretical state of design can be approached, thereby improving the consistency in appearance.
