Abstract (en)

[origin: US5712015A] A filling body (1) for introduction into a hollow space of an automobile body, consisting of a foam filling material which is surrounded by a plastic film (2), the foam filling material being adapted to be reduced in size, for example, by an evacuation of the hermetically closing covering for introduction into the hollow space and being adapted to be held fast in the hollow space by a release of restoring forces of the foam filling material, the foam filling material having foam flakes 5, 5'. In order to obtain as good as possible a variability-awkward-with respect to the geometrical shaping and the best possible filling of complicated, for instance angular geometries of the hollow space when the restoring forces are released, the foam material consist exclusively of foam flakes (5, 5') and the filling body (1) is permanently deformable as a result of the foam flakes (5, 5') which are held together merely by a shaping action of the plastic film, in the evacuated state by a displacement of the foam flakes (5, 5') which can be obtained on the basis of external action.
