Description

ICE HOLDING DEVICE OF A MOTOR VEHICLE

  The present invention relates to a device for holding motor vehicle windows fixed by a

  glue layer in body parts. Such a disc

  Positive maintenance is for example described in the DE-OS

32 43 101.

  In the case of automotive glass glued, it is necessary to immobilize them in the desired position by means of holding devices until the glue has hardened. The known holding device has for this purpose eccentric pivotally mounted below the lower edge of the windshield, the latter being in abutment against said eccentrics and therefore not able to skid down due to its weight, this even before the complete hardening of the glue. It is therefore necessary to position in the bodywork and adjust by means of a tool the eccentrics. Apart from the high cost of these eccentrics, this causes a significant complication of the assembly and excludes an automatic assembly using

of robots.

  The subject of the invention is a maintenance device of the kind advertised which is of as simple a structure as possible and allows an automatic assembly of the ice creams

motor vehicle.

  This holding device is characterized in that it is formed of a hook and loop fastener, a part of which is fixed to the motor vehicle window, and

  another to a body part.

  Such a hook-and-loop closure has the effect of keeping each motor vehicle window in its desired position until the bonding has completely hardened and ensures this care. The self-gripping closures are simple and inexpensive, the holding device according to the invention is achievable much better than the previously known holding devices. In addition, no tools are required to activate the holding devices. Just press the motor vehicle window in its proper position to cause a hooking of the hook and loop closure and fix in this way said ice. The invention therefore allows

  to realize in a very simple way an automatic assembly.

  The holding device is particularly simplified.

  if a Velcro closure part is each

  glued directly to a motor vehicle window.

  The other hook-and-loop fastening part is correspondingly fixable on a body part, this,

  for example, also by gluing.

  As the windows are often framed towards the outside by a frame, it is also possible to fasten a hook-and-loop fastener part to such a frame each time.

  ice clutching the lower edge of a vehicle ice

automobile.

  In most cases, the insertion of a motor vehicle window is particularly simple if the hook-and-loop fastener portion is placed on the

  mounting of the ice, the inner side of said ice.

  If the space available below the edge of the motor vehicle window is insufficient for the establishment of a hook-and-loop fastener, it is possible, according to an advantageous extension of the invention, to place the hook-and-loop fastener part on a protrusion of the ice mount that is moving away from the outer edge of

the latter.

  The invention offers many possibilities of realization, but it will be better understood in its principle

  using the detailed description of an embodiment

  taken as a non-limiting example and illustrated schematically in the accompanying drawing, in which: - Figure 1 is a top view of the rear window, with holding device according to said invention in the rear part of a passenger car; - Figure 2 is a perspective view of a section taken along the line II-II of Figure 1; - Figure 3 is a top view of an area

  marginal of a motor vehicle ice cream equipped with the

  holding device according to the invention;

  FIG. 4 is a front view of a mar-

  of a motor vehicle ice cream equipped with a

  holding device according to the invention corresponding to another form of the invention; FIG. 5 is a sectional view of the device

holding according to FIG.

  FIG. 1 shows the rear part of a motor vehicle with a rear window 1. Part of the doors 2, 3 with side windows 4, 5 are partially recognizable. The reference 6 designates a trunk door extending

  up to the rear window 1. The latter extends laterally

  up to roof pillars 7, 8 and up to roof 9 of the vehicle. The attachment of the rear window 1 must be done by gluing. To keep it in its proper insertion position before the adhesive hardens, there are provided, near the lower edge of the rear window 1, holding devices 10, 11 shown in dashed lines in FIG. The arrangement of these holding devices 10, 11 is essential for the invention

  and will be described below in detail using FIG.

  FIG. 2 makes it possible to recognize in section the region

  the rear window 1. The latter is connected to

  remains by a glue layer 12 to a body part

  series 13 which extends into the vehicle interior by a rear shelf 14. A black colored edge covers on the rear window 1 the adhesive layer 12 and the holding devices 10, 11. The body portion 12 supports towards the rear a seal 15 on which rests the trunk door 6. It also recognizes the holding device 10. The latter consists of a closing part

  hook-and-loop fastener 16 and a lower part 17.

  It should be noted that the upper hook-and-loop fastener portion 16 is attached to an ice mount 18 enclosing the lower edge of the rear window 1 and presses against the

  rear window 1 from the inner side of the latter.

  The lower hook-and-loop fastener portion 17 is

  permanently connected to the body part 13.

  FIG. 3 is a top view of how the hook-and-loop closure portion 16 is fastened to the ice-frame 18. As can be seen, this part is

  connected to said ice mount 18 by a corner area.

  Unlike this embodiment, it is of course also possible to simply glue the top hook and loop fastener part 16 against the

rear window 1.

  FIGS. 4 and 5 show another embodiment in which the rear window 1 is also surrounded by a frame 18. It includes, directed outwards, a projection 19 on which is fixed the self-closing part. The lower gripping portion 17 is here again attached to the body portion 13. This arrangement causes the holding devices 10 to be outside the area covered by the rear window 1. As on FIG. 2 also shows in FIG. 5 the adhesive layer 12. A sealing lip 20 of the ice mount 18 prevents the

  glue to reach the Velcro closure.

  The invention may include multiple variants.

  All achievements, however, are based on this principle that the ice is pressed in the desired position and then maintained by the Velcro closure. As a result, the motor vehicle ice can not move, even before the hardening of the glue layer. The invention has been described by the example of an ice cream

  backward, but of course it can also

  other motor vehicle windows, in particular

on the windshield.
