FR2667023A1 - SEALING DEVICE FOR VERTICALLY MOBILE ICE FOR MOTOR VEHICLE DOOR. - Google Patents

Abstract

The present invention relates to a sealing device for the vertically movable window of a motor vehicle. According to the invention, this device comprises a seal (8) carried by the glass (1) and arranged so as to come to rest on an element (4 or 6) of the door when the glass is in the high position. .

Description

i - The air and noise tightness of vertically movable ice

  the door of a motor vehicle is generally provided by sealing seals applied in stress on the ice These seals significantly increase the effort required to move the window; this effort, which is exerted on all the rise or the descent of the ice, is embarrassing when the ice is maneuvered manually

using a crank.

  The present invention relates to a device

  sealing that overcomes this disadvantage.

  This device is characterized in that it comprises a seal carried by the ice and arranged so as to come to rest on an element of the

  door when the ice is in the up position.

  An embodiment of the device 2 - according to the invention, with reference to the appended drawing, in which: FIG. 1 shows a vehicle door provided with the device according to the invention, is described by way of nonlimiting example. invention; Figure 2 is a sectional view along II-II of Figure 1; Figure 3 is a view III-III of

Figure 2.

  In the drawing we see an ice 1 which is vertically movable in a door 2 of a motor vehicle, between an outer panel 3 preferably reinforced by a stiffener 4 and an inner panel or liner 5 preferably reinforced by

a stiffener 6.

  On the upper edges of the door panel in contact on the one hand with the outer panel 3 and its stiffener 4 and on the other hand with the inner panel or lining 5 and its stiffener 6 are fitted with two seals 7 and 7 but the lip of these joints does not touch the ice 1; it is simply a finishing lip and does not seal. A gasket 8 is mounted on the glass 1 and possibly fixed thereto, for example by gluing. This gasket has the shape of a bowl whose base has an opening 9 for the passage of the ice and whose side walls are folded. This seal is arranged so that, when the ice is in 3-high position, the upper edges of its side walls are applied on the stiffeners 4 and 6, elastically given the undulations of these side walls. thus ensures noise and air tightness when

the ice is in the up position.

  In the bottom of the seal 8 opens a conduit l Oa or Ob which allows the evacuation to the outside of the water that may have flowed between the ice and the seal

7 a or 7 b.

  During the rise or fall of the ice 1, the joints 7a and 7b exert no effort on the ice since their lips are not in contact with the ice The seal 8 does not come into action

than at the end of the race.

  It goes without saying that the present invention should not be considered as limited to the embodiment described or shown, but covers, on the contrary,

all variants.
