UN TABLERO DE MANDOS PARA AUTOMOVIL CONSISTE EN UN MATERIAL DE PIEL UNIDO SOBRE UN MATERIAL DE NUCLEO DE RESINA TERMOPLASTICA, OBTENIDO POR LA APLICACION DE DICHO MATERIAL DE PIEL (6) ENTRE UN PAR DE MOLDES MACHO Y HEMBRA, Y LUEGO EFECTUANDO MOLDEO A PRESION DESPUES O MIENTRAS SE ADMINISTRA UNA RESINA TERMOPLASTICA EN ESTADO FUNDIDO ENTRE DICHO MATERIAL DE PIEL (6) Y DICHO MOLDE MACHO O HEMBRA, EN DONDE HAY PROPORCIONADOS EN LA SUPERFICIE DE DICHO TABLERO DE MANDOS UNA O MAS PARTES (8) DONDE DICHO MATERIAL (7) DE NUCLEO DE RESINA TERMOPLASTICA SE EXPONE, EN DONDE LA SUPERFICIE FINAL DE DICHO MATERIAL DE PIEL EN LA PARTE LIMITE ENTRE LA PARTE EXTREMA DE MATERIAL DE PIEL QUE RODEA DICHAS PARTES (8) EXPUESTAS DE MATERIAL DE NUCLEO DE RESINA TERMOPLASTICA Y EL EXPUESTO MATERIAL DE NUCLEO SE ENCAJA DENTRO DE LA SUPERFICIE DE RESINA DE NUCLEO EXPUESTA Y SE ASEGURA POR ESA RAZON, Y EN DONDE SE FORMAN UNO O MAS AGUJEROS DIRECTOS (10) QUE PENETRAN EN UNA CAPA DE MATERIAL DE NUCLEO EN DICHA PARTE EXPUESTA DE MATERIAL DE NUCLEO. EN EL TABLERO DE MANDOS FORMADO DE ESTA MANERA, NO SOLO EL MATERIAL DE NUCLEO DE RESINA (7) Y EL MATERIAL DE PIEL (6) SON INTEGRANTES, UNIDOS EN CONJUNTO FUERTEMENTE, SINO QUE TAMBIEN SE NECESITAN COMPONENTES NO SEPARADOS QUE FORMAN UNA ABERTURA. ADEMAS, LA SUPERFICIE EXTREMA DEL MATERIAL DE PIEL (7) QUE RODEA A LA PARTE DE ABERTURA SE TERMINA DE UNA FORMA BELLA Y DE ESTE MODO EL TABLERO DE MANDOS PROPORCIONA UNA APARIENCIA HERMOSA. An instrument panel for an automobile consisting of a skin material bonded onto a thermoplastic resin core material, obtained by supplying said skin material (6) between a pair of male and female molds, and then effecting press molding after or while supplying a molten-state thermoplastic resin between said skin material (6) and said male or female mold, wherein there are provided in the surface of said instrument panel one or more portions (8) where said thermoplastic resin core material (7) is exposed, wherein the end surface of said skin material at the boundary portion between the skin material end portion surrounding said thermoplastic resin core material exposed portions (8) and the exposed core material is imbedded into the exposed core resin surface and secured thereat, and wherein one or more through holes (10) penetrating a core material layer are formed in said core material exposed portion. In the instrument panel so formed, not only the resin core material (7) and the skin material (6) are integrally, strongly joined together, but also no separate components forming an opening are needed. Moreover, the end surface of the skin material (6) surrounding the opening portion is beautifully finished and thus the instrument panel provides a beautiful appearance.
