Method for producing a clip-on fastening system and corresponding clip-on fastening system
Abstract
The invention relates to a method for producing a clip-on fastening system, whereby a fastening element serves as the base of the clip-on fastening system and is linked with a support in a non-positive manner. The fastening element serves to detachably fasten the support with a component, especially a seal, in a clip-on manner. The component is provided with a clip area which has a cross-sectional shape corresponding to the cross-sectional shape of the fastening element. According to the invention, the fastening element is pre-fabricated as a hardened continuous profile by way of an extrusion method while using a hard material. The pre-fabricated fastening element is glued onto the support, and the component is then clipped onto the fastening element by way of its clip area, thereby producing a detachable connection.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 .- 18 . (canceled)
19 . A method for producing a clip-on fastening system in which a fastening element ( 2 ) that functions as the base part of the clip-on fastening system is connected in a non-positive manner to a substrate ( 1 ), said fastening element providing a detachable clip-on fastening of the substrate ( 1 ) to a component ( 4 ), in particular a gasket, which is provided with a clip area ( 5 ), whereby the fastening element has a cross-sectional shape corresponding to the clip area ( 5 ) of the component ( 4 ); wherein a fastening element ( 2 ) already prefabricated and manufactured as a hardened continuous profile using a hard material in an extrusion process is glued to the substrate ( 1 ), and whereby the continuous profile is pressed against the substrate ( 1 ) with a pressure roller while gluing it to the substrate, and the component ( 4 ) is clipped with the clip area ( 5 ) onto the finished fastening element ( 2 ), and a material having a shore D hardness of at least 40 is used.
20 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein the hardened continuous profile is produced in-line with the process step of gluing the fastening element ( 2 ) to the substrate.
21 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein the continuous profile is wound up onto a roll before glue application and is unwound from the roll for the purpose of glue application.
22 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein a double-sided adhesive tape ( 3 ) is applied to the underside of the continuous profile.
23 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein an adhesive is applied to the underside of the continuous profile.
24 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein an adhesive is applied to the underside of the continuous profile and to the substrate.
25 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein shortly before bringing the continuous profile in contact with the substrate, it is heated on the surface that is to be glued.
26 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein a thermoplastic material is used as the material for the fastening element ( 2 ).
27 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein a thermoplastic elastomer is used as the material for the fastening element ( 2 ).
28 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein polyurethane is used as the material for the fastening element ( 2 ).
29 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein a material that is also hard is used as the material for the clip area ( 5 ).
30 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein a material having a hardness of at least 40 Shore D, preferably 45 Shore D is used.
31 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein the component ( 4 ) is also prefabricated as a continuous profile.
32 . The method according-to claim 19 , wherein the application of the fastening element ( 2 ) to the substrate ( 1 ) and gluing it to the substrate ( 1 ) and/or clipping the component ( 4 ) onto the fastening element ( 2 ) is/are performed automatically by a robot.
33 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein the fastening element ( 2 ) is produced with a mushroom-shaped cross section.
34 . The method according to claim 19 , wherein the clip area ( 5 ) of the component ( 4 ) is produced with a mushroom-shaped cross section.
35 . A clip-on fastening system in which a fastening element ( 2 ) that functions as the base part of the clip-on fastening system is joined in a non-positive manner to a substrate ( 1 ) and provides a detachable clip-on fastening of the substrate ( 1 ) to a component ( 4 ), in particular a gasket, which is provided with a clip area ( 5 ), whereby the fastening element has a cross-sectional shape that corresponds to the clip area ( 5 ) of the component, wherein a fastening element ( 2 ) which has been prefabricated and manufactured using a hard material to produce a hardened continuous profile in an extrusion process is glued to the substrate ( 1 ), and whereby the continuous section is pressed against the substrate ( 1 ) when gluing it, and the component ( 4 ) is clipped onto the finished fastening element ( 2 ), and the hard material has a hardness of at least 40 Shore D.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
