ABSTRACT:
An automotive interior trim for improving deployment safety of seamless passenger airbags for instrument panel is disclosed. The interior trim, mounted on an deployment opening of an airbag module of a framework for a instrument panel, includes a framework with an airbag deployment opening for a instrument panel, an airbag cover covering the airbag deployment opening, a foaming interlayer, a surface layer, and a netlike additional layer which is integrally combined with the foaming interlayer after penetrated by a foam material. When the airbag bursts, the airbag cover is opened outwards and the surface layer of the instrument panel is torn, and the foaming interlayer is torn thereupon too. Under the effect of the netlike additional layer, the foam in the foaming interlayer is fixed by the additional layer, thereby avoiding crumb and hard particle production and improving the deployment safety of the airbag greatly.
