专利说明:

[0001] The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a piece of automotive equipment, comprising: - provision of a porous layer in a foaming mold; injecting a foam precursor material on a first side of the porous layer; expanding the precursor material to form a foam base layer bonded to the porous layer; extraction from the mold of a piece of equipment comprising the porous layer and the foam base layer bonded to the porous layer. Such a room is particularly suitable for forming a motor vehicle soundproofing assembly. Such an assembly is intended to solve the acoustic problems that arise in a substantially enclosed space, such as the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle (carpet, roof, door panel, etc.), in the vicinity of noise sources such as a engine (apron etc), the contact of tires with a road (wheel well, etc.), etc. In general, in the low frequency domain, the acoustic waves generated by the aforementioned noise sources are "damped" by materials in the form of single or double sheets (prestressed sandwich) having a visco elastic behavior or acoustic attenuation of a porous and elastic mass-spring system. Within the meaning of the present invention, a soundproofing assembly provides "insulation" when it prevents the entry of medium and high frequency acoustic waves into the soundproof space, essentially by reflection of the waves towards the noise sources or the outside of the soundproofed space. A soundproofing package operates by "sound absorption" (in the medium and high frequency range) when the energy of the acoustic waves dissipates in an absorbent material. An efficient soundproofing system must work both by ensuring good insulation and absorption. To characterize the performance of such a set, we use the notion of sound reduction index NR which takes into account the two notions of isolation and absorption: this index can be calculated by the following equation: NR (dB ) = TL - 10log (S / A) Where TL is the sound attenuation index (hereinafter weakening index) reflecting the insulation. The higher this index, the better the insulation 3024675 2 A is the equivalent absorption surface. The higher A is, the better the absorption. To achieve good soundproofing, for example for a car interior, it is desirable to implement a set of materials that will play judiciously on these two concepts. This has been described in many articles, in particular in the article "Faurecia Acoustic Lightweight Concept" by A Duval of 2002 at the conference SIA / CTTM 2002 at Le Mans. In particular, it is desirable to obtain lightweight assemblies, if possible recyclable, having a satisfactory absorption and remaining effective in terms of insulation. To this end, W003 / 069596 discloses complexes comprising a foam base layer, a tight layer (also called heavy weight) of low basis weight, and a porous layer, have been developed. These complexes have an excellent compromise between absorption and insulation, while maintaining adequate lightness. To improve recyclability, EP2170576 discloses an acoustic complex comprising a foam base layer, a porous top layer, and a sealed intermediate layer formed by penetrating the precursor material of the foam base layer into the porous layer.
[0002] In the process described in this patent, it is difficult to control the thickness and thus the mass of the sealed intermediate layer, which often leads to overuse of the raw materials and therefore to an additional cost. Indeed the constitution of this layer depends on the porosity of the upper layer (which is adapted according to the application) which will leave more or less penetrate the precursor material.
[0003] Likewise, FR2979308 describes an acoustic complex comprising a foam base layer, an impervious interlayer, and a porous foam layer known as stiffening rigid flexural layer. The choice of a high flexural stiffness for the stiffening layer provides acoustic properties optimized in terms of insulation.
[0004] The manufacture of these complexes comprises disposing at least one porous layer in a foaming mold, and then introducing a precursor material of the foamed base layer that is expanded. However, in some cases, the manufacture of the aforementioned complexes can be complicated. Indeed, the expansion of the precursor material causes compression of the porous layer.
[0005] In some cases, especially when the porous layer is particularly stiff in bending, it is likely to crash abruptly under the effect of the pressure of the foaming material. This phenomenon causes a sharp increase in the volume in which the precursor material is likely to foam, causing a collapse of the foam of the forming base layer. This phenomenon is similar to what the person skilled in the art knows under the term "collapse". Indeed, the sudden increase in volume takes place while the foam is being formed, at a time when the walls of the cells are not yet reticulated and therefore not very resistant. The rapid increase in volume causes a relaxation of the gases which leads to the destruction of the walls. The skeleton of the foam collapses and then forms a kind of skin. The complex then has deteriorated mechanical and acoustic properties. Another disadvantage of these methods is that the basecoat cells may remain partially closed, limiting the porosity and thus the acoustic performance of the base foam. This closure of the cells also promotes the trapping of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) resulting from the foaming reaction, which may nevertheless be evacuated progressively by migration during the use of the product.
[0006] An object of the invention is therefore to obtain a method of manufacturing a piece of motor vehicle equipment comprising a rigid porous layer and a foam base layer having very satisfactory mechanical and acoustic properties. Another object of the invention is to provide acoustic complexes of the type described above, but having a tight interface of low surface density, independent of the porosity of the upper layer. Another object of the invention is to allow the production of foams with cells in the base layer as open as possible, thus optimizing the acoustic performance of the complex and minimizing VOC emissions over time. For this purpose, the subject of the invention is a process of the aforementioned type, characterized in that it comprises a step of injecting a pressurized fluid from a second side of the porous layer to form a back pressure at the same time. expansion of the precursor material.
[0007] According to particular embodiments, the method according to the invention comprises one or more of the following characteristics, taken separately or in any technically possible combination: the fluid under pressure is a gas. The fluid under pressure is injected after the injection of the precursor material. the fluid under pressure is injected after contact of the precursor material with the porous layer during the expansion of the precursor material. the foaming mold comprises a first mold surface, the step of disposing the first porous layer in the foaming mold having the second side of the porous layer facing the first mold surface. the injection of fluid under pressure takes place through a plurality of orifices opening into the first mold surface. the density of orifices opening into the first mold surface is between 1 orifice per square meter and 8 orifices per square meter. the method comprises a step of applying a vacuum of a second side of the porous layer after formation of the foam base layer. the porous layer is chosen from an expanded foam layer, a felt layer, a split foam layer. The porous layer is an expanded foam layer, the process comprising an initial step of forming the porous layer from a precursor material having the same components as the precursor material of the foam base layer. the foam base layer and the porous layer are made based on a precursor mixture of the same polyol, the same isocyanate, and water. the foam base layer and the porous layer are made based on a precursor mixture of the same polyol, of the same isocyanate, the layer of expanded foam comprising fillers, in particular chalk, barite or their mixtures. The precursor material of the foam base layer does not penetrate into the porous layer and forms a tight intermediate layer at the interface between the porous layer and the foam base layer. the porous layer carries at least one impervious layer, the impervious layer being located on the first side of the porous layer after the disposition of the porous layer in the foaming mold. 3024675 5 - the piece of equipment extracted in the extraction stage is a soundproofing assembly of a motor vehicle; - The bending stiffness of the porous layer is greater than the flexural stiffness of the foam base layer after expansion.
[0008] The invention also relates to a piece of motor vehicle equipment comprising: - a porous layer; - a base layer of foam; an airtight intermediate layer disposed between the porous layer and the foam base layer, characterized in that the sealed intermediate layer is formed integrally with the foam base layer, at least a part, advantageously all, of the sealed intermediate layer being disposed outside the porous layer being made of the same material as that forming the foam base layer. The invention will be better understood on reading the following description, given solely by way of example, and with reference to the appended drawings, in which: FIG. 1 is a diagrammatic sectional view of a first piece of equipment 20 of a motor vehicle manufactured by a method according to the invention; - Figures 2 to 4 are views of the successive steps of the manufacturing method according to the invention; FIG. 5 is a view illustrating a curve of the pressure applied in the foaming mold and the amount of foaming material introduced as a function of time; - Figure 6 is a view similar to Figure 2 of a first step of manufacturing a second piece of motor vehicle equipment by the method according to the invention; FIG. 7 is a view similar to FIG. 2 of a first step of manufacturing a third piece of motor vehicle equipment by the method according to the invention; FIG. 8 shows the sound reduction index (NR) curves for two pieces according to the invention in comparison with a piece according to W003 / 069596 constituting the state of the art.
[0009] In all that follows, the orientations are generally the usual orientations of a motor vehicle. However, the terms "above", "on", "below 3024675", "under", "upper" and "lower" are relative in relation to the reference surface of the motor vehicle, opposite which is disposed the soundproofing assembly. The term "inferior" is thus understood to be located closest to the surface and the term "superior" to be located furthest away from this surface. A first piece 10 of automotive equipment according to the invention, manufactured by a method according to the invention, is illustrated in FIG. 1. The part 10 is intended for example to constitute a set of soundproofing suitable to be arranged opposite 'a surface of a motor vehicle.
[0010] The surface is for example a metal sheet metal surface of the vehicle defining in particular a floor, a ceiling, a door, an apron separating the passenger compartment from the engine compartment, a hood, or a wheel arch of a motor vehicle. With reference to FIG. 1, the part 10 comprises at least one porous layer 12 and a base layer 14 of foam bonded to the porous layer 12.
[0011] In this example, the part 10 further comprises an intermediate layer 16 located between the porous layer 12 and the foam base layer 14. The porous layer 12 is advantageously a stiffening layer. It has a flexural stiffness B, reduced to a unit width, for example greater than 0.01 N.m, especially between 0.1 N.m and 10.0 N.m. The flexural stiffness B is for example greater than 0.4 Nm, especially greater than 3.0 Nm. The bending stiffness B is calculated by the equation: B = E.h3 / 12, where h is the thickness of the layer 12, and E is its Young's modulus. Its Young's modulus, however, remains greater than 105 Pa, especially in the case of significant thicknesses beyond 15 mm (limit value in flexural modulus).
[0012] The Young's modulus or modulus of elasticity is measured for example by the method described in standard NF EN ISO 527-3 (static measurement) or advantageously, according to standard 150-18437-5 (dynamic method). The porous layer 12 is for example made by expansion of a foam to form an open porous foamed foam layer. Alternatively, the porous layer 12 is a split open foam layer or felt. The open foam layer may be formed from waste in the form of agglomerated and bonded foam flakes. The felt layer may also contain different types of recycled materials. When the porous layer 12 is made by foam expansion, the foam conforms to the shape of the mold with often variable thicknesses while keeping the same density everywhere, unlike with split foam or felt which will be more compressed at places of smaller thickness. For this reason, the expanded foam is often preferred for producing the layer 12. The thickness of the porous layer 12 is for example between 1 mm and 25 mm, and is in particular between 5 mm and 10 mm.
[0013] The porosity of the layer 12 is chosen so that the resistance to the passage of air of this layer 12 is greater than 300 Nm-3.s and is advantageously between 300 Nm-3.s and 6000 Nm-3.s , in particular approximately between 2000 Nm-3.s and 5000 Nm-3.s. The resistance to the passage of air or its resistivity is measured by the method described in the thesis "Measurements of parameters characterizing a porous medium.Experimental study of the acoustic behavior of foams at low frequencies.", Michel HENRY, supported on October 3 1997 at the University of Le Mans. The porous layer 12 is for example formed based on polyurethane, from a precursor mixture of a polyol and an isocyanate. The weight ratio between the polyol and the isocyanate is, for example, between 100 to 50 and 100 to 80. The density of the porous layer 12 is advantageously between 10 kg / m 3 and 150 kg / m 3, preferably between 90 kg / m 3. m3 and 100 kg / m3 The person skilled in the art knows how to adapt the formulation to obtain the desired density without influencing the other parameters of the foam. In particular, the porous layer 12 may contain fillers, for example chalk and / or barium sulfate. This increases the density of the layer 12 and thus its insulation properties. This foam may have a high tortuosity, especially greater than 1.4 and advantageously between 1.4 and 3 as described in the application WO2007 / 006950 of the Applicant. This tortuosity is measured by determining the slope of the curve representing the change in the square of the refractive index for the acoustic wavelength used, as a function of the inverse of the square root of the frequency. The foam base layer 14 is obtained according to the process according to the invention by expansion of a precursor material in a foaming mold 20 illustrated in FIG. 2. Advantageously, the precursor material is similar to, or identical to that used for forming the porous layer 12. The flexural stiffness B of the foam base layer 14 is smaller than that of the porous layer 12.
[0014] The foam base layer 14 advantageously has a porosity adapted to exhibit a resistivity to the passage of the air advantageously between 10000 N.rn-4.s and 90000 N.rn-4.s notably equal to about 30,000 N rn-4.s. The density of the foam base layer 14 is for example between 30 kg / m 3 and 70 kg / m 3 and in particular around 50 kg / m 3. The thickness of the foam base layer 14 is advantageously between 5 mm and 30 mm, for example between 10 mm and 15 mm. The foam base layer 14 advantageously has spring properties. In this case, the foam base layer 14 has an elastic modulus of greater than 10,000 Pa. This modulus is advantageously between 20000 Pa and 100000 Pa, in particular between 30000 Pa and 40000 Pa. The intermediate layer 16 is impervious to the passage of water. 'air. By "air tight" is meant that its resistance to the passage of air is too high to be measured by the method described above.
[0015] The intermediate layer 16 has a thickness less than that of the porous layer 12, preferably a thickness of between 1 mm and 4 mm. The weight per unit area of the intermediate layer 16 is greater than 50 g / m 2 and is in particular greater than 150 g / m 2, advantageously greater than 210 g / m 2. This mass per unit area is in particular between 250 g / m2 and 1100 g / m 2.
[0016] The surface density of this intermediate layer 16 is in any case lower than that of a conventional heavy-mass layer which is of the order of 1500 g / m 2. The intermediate layer 16 is assembled on the porous layer 12. Unlike the products mentioned in the preamble for which the intermediate layer 16 is obtained by filling the pores or interstices formed in the porous layer 12 with the aid of the foaming material injected during the realization of the foam base layer 14, the intermediate layer 16 according to the invention is actually an interface with or with very little penetration into the layer 12. In a variant, the porous assembly defined above comprises a porous layer resistive (not shown), disposed on the porous layer 12.
[0017] The manufacturing method according to the invention is implemented in an installation 22 visible in FIG. 2. The installation 22 comprises a mold 20 defining a cavity 24 for foaming, and an assembly 26 for injecting the precursor material intended for forming the foam base layer 14 in the foaming cavity 24. According to the invention, the installation 22 further comprises an assembly 27 for producing a counter-pressure by injecting fluid into the foaming cavity 24.
[0018] The mold 20 comprises a first half-mold 28 for supporting the porous layer 12, and a second half-mold 30 for closing the cavity 24. The half-molds 28, 30 are movable relative to one another. other between an open position of access to the cavity 24 and a closed foaming position in the cavity 24.
[0019] The first half-mold 28 defines a bearing surface 31 intended to receive the porous layer 12 in abutment. The first half-mold 28 further defines fluid injection orifices 32, connected to the embodiment assembly. BACKGROUND 27. The density of orifices 32 is, for example, between 1 orifice per square meter and 10 8 orifices per square meter. A distance taken along the surface 31 of between 100 mm and 300 mm, in particular between 150 mm and 250 mm, advantageously separates two adjacent orifices 32. The transverse extent of each orifice 32, in particular their diameter when their section is circular, is between 3 mm and 10 mm. The second half-mold 30 defines a closure surface 34 of the mold 20, intended to be placed opposite and away from the bearing surface 31. The injection assembly 26 is able to bring the precursor material into the mold. the cavity 24, a first side of the porous layer 12.
[0020] The counter-pressure-generating assembly 27 is capable of injecting fluid, in particular a gas, through each orifice 32, from a second side of the porous layer 12 opposite the first side, in order to carry out a counter-pressure. pressure. The pressure of the injected fluid is for example greater than 0.5 bar relative and is in particular between 1 bar relative and 3 bar relative.
[0021] A first manufacturing method according to the invention will now be described. Initially, the porous layer 12 is made, for example by expanding a precursor material in an auxiliary foaming mold (not shown). Then, the porous assembly comprising the porous layer 12 and optionally the porous resistive layer is introduced into the cavity 24 of the mold 20 by placing a first side of the porous layer 12 opposite and away from the closure surface. 34 of the second half-mold 32. A free space is available in the cavity 24 of the first side of the porous layer 12. A second side of the porous layer 12 is placed facing the bearing surface 31. In this example, the porous layer 12 is applied against the bearing surface 31.
[0022] Then, the precursor material is injected into the cavity 24, in the space available on the first side of the porous layer 12, as illustrated by the curve 36 of the added material flow as a function of time in FIG. of precursor material is initially less than the volume of available space. With reference to FIG. 3, the precursor material is expanded and fills the available space on the first side of the porous layer 12. The counterpressure assembly 27 is then activated. Pressurized gas is injected through the orifices 32 into the porous layer 12, as illustrated by the pressure curve 38 in the porous layer as a function of time in FIG. 5. This gas injection advantageously starts at the moment when the material Expanding precursor completely filled the mold space 24, about 10 s to 20 s after the end of the injection. An internal pressure is then present in the predominantly open pores of the porous layer 12, ensuring its mechanical retention against the expansion force generated by the forming foam base layer 14. The porous layer 12 thus substantially retains the thickness it had when it was introduced into the cavity 24 of the mold 20. The variation in thickness of the porous layer 12 is, for example, less than 30%. In this example, the back pressure through the porous layer 12 strongly limits the penetration of the foam constituting the layer 14 in formation, confining the interface between the two layers of foam 12, 14. The penetration thickness of the foam constituting the layer 14 in the porous layer 12 is advantageously less than 2 mm. A tight intermediate layer 16 is thus formed. This layer 16 has the appearance of a "collapse", but limited in thickness and therefore in density. This is a surprising effect of the invention. Without feeling bound by any theory, the Applicant could explain this phenomenon in the following manner. Maintaining the back pressure in the foam 12 actually causes a certain air flow on the surface of the same layer 12, because the molds are never perfectly sealed. The air thus moving in a non-laminar manner on the surface of the layer 12 there causes the instability of the foam 14 in formation, that is to say an uncontrolled formation of the cells which inevitably ends in collapse, but this very locally in the vicinity of the foam 12 and therefore on a reduced thickness.
[0023] This type of collapse is therefore not comparable to that described in the preamble caused by the sudden collapse of the layer 12 which is generalized and which concerns the entirety of the layer 14, but rather to an over densification of the foam . Nevertheless, this air flow does not prevent the "collapse" layer 16 from coming into contact with the layer 12 under the effect of the expansion pressure and adhering thereto. The thickness of the layer 16 is, for example, less than 50% of the thickness of the foam base layer 14, in particular between 5% and 30% of the thickness of the foam base layer 14. 10, the interface layer 16 has a skin on the side of the foam base layer 14, the skin being free of pores and advantageously a less compact area (with some pores) side layer 12. Once the stabilized foam base layer 14, the assembly for producing a back-pressure 27 is deactivated, ie between 20 s and 60 s after the end of the injection of the precursor material of the layer 12.
[0024] Advantageously, just after stopping the backpressure, it is possible to achieve a partial vacuum (see curve 39 in FIG. 5) in the foam 12 through the same network of holes allowing against-pressure, for the purpose to perfect the opening of the cells of the layer 14 and thereby to evacuate a large portion of the VOCs present.
[0025] Then, the mold 20 is opened and the piece 10 is extracted. The presence of a back pressure in the porous layer 12, opposing the expansion force of the layer 14 in formation, prevents the abrupt crushing of the porous layer 12 and ensures that the base layer 14 of foam do not collapse. It prevents the penetration of the foam 14 into the foam 12 thus allowing the formation and confinement of the interface. This leads to an intermediate layer 16 of thickness and controllable surface mass. The realization of the vacuum makes it possible, by opening the cells, to increase the porosity of the layer 14 and therefore the acoustic efficiency of the entire complex while strongly limiting the presence of VOCs.
[0026] The mechanical and acoustic properties of the part 10 are therefore controlled and ensured. The method according to the invention is particularly simple to implement and does not require any modification of the part 10. It allows in particular the formation of the foam base layer 14 and its simultaneous assembly on the porous layer 12, without having to perform multiple assembly operations. The manufacturing cost of the part 10 is therefore reduced.
[0027] FIG. 8 shows the curves representing the noise reduction index as a function of the frequencies for two products according to the invention (H1 and H2) and a product according to W003 / 069596 constituting the state of the art called LWC. (Light Weight Concept).
[0028] H1 and H2 consist of foams 12 and 14 and an interface 16 made from similar precursor materials for respectively the layer 12 and the layers 14, 16 leading to foams with the acoustic parameters in the ranges defined according to FIG. invention. Thus, the layer 12 has a density of the order of 90 kg / m3 and a stiffness greater than 0.1 Nm.
[0029] The total basis weight of H 1 is 2.6 kg / m 2 with an interface 16 of 600 g / m 2. The total mass per unit area of H2 is 2.3 kg / m 2 with an interface 16 of 300 g / m 2. The surface weight of LWC is 2.5 kg / m2 with a heavy mass of 1kg / m2 and a top layer of "stiffening" with a density of 60 kg / m3. It can be seen that H1 exhibits a behavior very close to LWC 15, especially from 2500 Hz. This is explained by the relatively high surface area of the interface 16, which allows a good behavior in isolation. The relatively high stiffness of the layer 14 due to the density of 90 kg / m3 allows the phenomenon of grounding described in FR2979308, further improving the behavior in isolation, so that the waterproof interface 16 behaves almost like a mass. heavy 1kg / m2 reproducing the general behavior of a LWC type complex. The performance of H2, lower weight, are slightly lower but are very good, especially at low and medium frequencies. In conclusion, for a substantially identical weight, a part according to the invention has an acoustic behavior comparable to a LWC type complex with the advantage of being constituted by the injection of only two layers, the third resulting from the constitution of the interface between these layers. Furthermore, substantially the same precursor material can be used to form the porous layer 12 and the foam base layer 14, adjusting the proportions of the different components of the precursor material, which simplifies the logistics of the manufacturing process. Moreover, in the case where the product consists solely of polyurethane (without the non-woven resistive) it is very easily recyclable (making flocks then assembled by gluing) The manufacturing process illustrated in Figure 6 is intended to form a part 10 35 having a porous layer 12 made of felt.
[0030] For the purposes of the present invention, the term "felt" means a mixture of base fibers and binder. The fibers may be noble fibers and / or recycled, natural or synthetic, of one or more natures. Examples of natural fibers that can be used are linen, cotton, hemp, bamboo etc. Examples of synthetic fibers that can be used are glass fiber, Kevlar, polyamide, acrylic, polyester, polypropylene. The binder is for example a resin or binder fibers which have a melting point lower than that of the base fibers to be bonded. Examples of resins are epoxy resins, or phenolic resins. Examples of binder fibers are polypropylene, polyethylene, polyamide, polyester, or two-component polyesters. In a variant, the felt comprises a high percentage of microfibers, for example more than 50% and advantageously 80% of microfibers. By "microfibres" is meant fibers of sizes less than 0.9 dtex, advantageously 0.7 dtex.
[0031] In a variant, the felt contains recycled material, originating, for example, from internal or external waste, in particular from falling parts of automotive equipment, manufacturing scrap, or end-of-life parts of a machine. vehicle. This waste is for example comminuted and incorporated into the felt as pieces of divided material consisting of agglomerates, flakes or particles. The waste components can be separated before or during grinding. In particular, materials of the elastomer type as described in FR2889617 may be added to the felt. These materials can help increase the rigidity of the layer 14 to improve the insulation performance of the complex. By textile is meant a web of fibers essentially based on thermoplastic polymer such as polypropylene, polyesters or polyamides mechanically assembled by needling without the use of binders of a chemical nature. Such a web may contain a percentage of thermoplastic or naturally occurring recycled fibers. The method of FIG. 6 is implemented analogously to the process illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 4. The manufacturing method illustrated in FIG. 7 is intended to form a part 10 comprising an impermeable layer 40 attached to the first side of the porous layer 35 12.
[0032] The impervious layer 40 is for example a heavy mass layer advantageously comprising a thermoplastic material of the polyolefin type (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate, Polyethylene, Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer) and incorporates fillers of the bitumen, chalk and / or barium sulfate type.
[0033] The Young's modulus of the impervious layer 40 is less than 1000 MPa, it has a density greater than or equal to 1500 kg / m 3, preferably greater than or equal to 2000 Kg / m 3, a surface density of between 0, 2 Kg / m 2 and 9 Kg / m 2 and advantageously a thickness of between 0.1 millimeter and 5 millimeters. The impermeable layer 40 is fixed on the porous layer 12 before the porous layer 12 is introduced into the cavity 24. In this case, the porous layer 12 may possibly have a lower stiffness as described in WO 03/069596. This lesser stiffness results, for example, in a value of less than 0.01 Nm and corresponds to foam densities of the order of 30 kg / m 3 to 50 kg / m 3. In the case of low stiffness of the layer 12, is less the collapse that is to be feared that the crushing of the foam 12 under the effect of the compression resulting from the expansion of the foam 14. In fact, this progressive crushing does not cause collapse, but the volume higher foaming of the layer 14 results in a density lower than that desired in a method of the state of the art. In addition, the piece, because of the resilience of the spring layer 14, will have a mold exit thickness greater than that desired which will cause problems during mounting on the vehicle. The method according to the invention solves these problems. The manufacturing process illustrated in FIG. 7 is also carried out in a similar manner to the process illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 4. In a variant of this process, at least one additional porous layer is attached to the porous layer 12. the second side of the porous layer 12, opposite the impervious layer 40, as described for example in WO03069596. The method according to the invention is therefore adapted to be used to produce parts 10 of very varied structures.
