Abstract

The invention relates to a composite plastic part consisting of a plastic part ( 1 ) that has a rib structure ( 2 ), and (a) profiled support(s) ( 4 ) which is/are glued to the ribs and the longitudinal edge of which is arranged vertically or nearly vertically on the plastic base. The invention further relates to a method for producing such a composite part and finished products containing such composite parts as components.

Claims (11)

1. A composite plastics structural member comprising a plastics structural member containing a flat plastics base body and additionally, on at least one side, also a rib structure which comprises at least one rib or at least one pair of ribs and which is joined by means of at least one rib surface, by an adhesive layer, to at least one profile surface of a support profile in such a manner that the narrow side of the support profile is positioned on the plastics base body or at a slight distance above the plastics base body, wherein the adhesive layer has a thickness of from 1 to 5 mm and, wherein the plastics structural member is an amorphous thermoplastic plastic.

2. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein the support profile is joined to precisely one plastics structural member or the support profiles are joined to precisely one plastics structural member.

3. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the height of the rib structure to the width, b, of the plastics base body is at least 1:10.

4. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein the adhesive is based on one member selected from the group consisting of polyurethane, acrylate, epoxide and silicone.

5. The composite plastics element according to claim 1 , wherein the support profile is a metal sheet made of a metal selected from the group consisting of steel, iron, titanium, aluminum, magnesium or an alloy containing at least one of those metals.

6. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein the plastics structural member is one or more plastics materials selected from the group consisting of polycarbonate, copolycarbonate, copolyester carbonate, PC blends and polymethyl methacrylate.

7. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein further support and holding elements are attached to the rib or to the pair of ribs.

8. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein the support profile is a semi-finished product with properties extending beyond the reinforcing function.

9. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein the support profile can additionally carry out fastening functions.

10. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the height of the rib structure to the width, b, of the plastics base body is at least 1:15.

11. The composite plastics structural member according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the height of the rib structure to the width, b, of the plastics base body is at least 1:30.
