Definitions
- the invention relates to sealing or guiding arrangements. Embodiments of the invention
- sealing or guiding arrangements embodying the invention can be used in many other situations.
- cross-sectional shapes and longitudinal configurations being such that together they
- Figure 1 is a side view of a motor vehicle body
- Figure 2 is a perspective view showing two components of one of the channel
- Figure 3 is a section on the line III-III of Figure 2;
- Figure 4 is a section on the line IN-IN of Figure 2;
- Figure 5 is a perspective view showing part of the two components of Figure 2 when
- Figure 6 is a perspective view showing another part of the two components of Figure 2
- Figure 7 corresponds to Figure 2 but shows two components of a modified window
- Figure 8 is a perspective view of part of the two components of Figure 7 when assembled
- Figure 9 is a cross section through part of another of the channel arrangements during a
- Figure 10 corresponds to Figure 9 but shows a later stage in manufacture.
- FIG. 1 shows a motor vehicle 10 having, in this example, four doors of which two,
- each door forms a window opening 15 which has a frame 16 with
- a pane 18 of window glass can be raised into the window opening 15
- the frame 16 includes a sealing and guiding channel.
- arrangement can be formed as two components 24,26 (Figure 2), each component being
- the two components 24,26 are produced by
- the vehicle door is aligned with the "A" pillar of the vehicle and then runs along the top
- Each component 24,26 may be shaped, in cross-section, to match a respective side of the
- Figures 3 and 4 show that the cross-sectional shape of the component 24 is not the same
- Figure 3 shows that, in zone A, the component 24 has a side wall 30, a base part 32 and
- region of component 26 is the same except that it does not have the lip 36.
- FIG. 4 shows that the component 24 in zone B has the same general configuration as
- joining region 40 are shown as fixed together along a joining region 40. This will be discussed below in
- Figure 5 illustrates how the upper edge 40 of the window glass 18 contacts
- Figure 6 shows the form of the
- the window glass 18 as it is raised from and lowered into the lowered part 20 of the door.
- lips 34,34, and 36 will need to be more flexible than the
- window sealing and guiding channels are produced using an extrusion process.
- each part will have the same cross-sectional shape along its length.
- cross-sectional shape along a length of the channel when, ideally, the cross-sectional
- window glass 18 are covered with flock or other suitable low-friction material.
- the flock can be applied during the injection-moulding operation, such
- injection-moulding process such as by mechanically interlocking them with the injection-
- moulded part or attaching them by glueing or welding.
- the two injection-moulded components 24,26 can be secured together to form the
- window frame 16 comprises a rigid metal channel with its channel
- the two components 24,26 can
- the two components 24,26 are produced by the injection-moulding
- the two components 24,26 when attached together such as in any of the
- Figure 7 shows a modification, in which the components 24,26 respectively include outer
- Waist belt 42 is simultaneously produced with the
- sectional shapes of the waist belts 42 and 44 differ significantly from the cross-sectional
- Each has a wall portion 45 and a lip
- sealing and guiding channels are produced by
- each of the components 24,26 it is not necessary for each of the components 24,26 to be in the form of a
- FIG 9 shows a modification, in which the two components 24,26 are simultaneously
