Description
SPECIFICATION
Sealing strips for bodywork edges
This invention relates to sealing strips for bodywork edges, particularly but not exclusively edges of car door frames.
Up till now, the finishing and sealing of edges of internal openings of bodyworks, especially those around car doors, have usually been effected by complex extruded sealing strips the central metal armature of which is previously cut out in herringbone or similar shape to allow conformation thereof at the time of positioning on the relevant edge.
An object of the present invention is to provide a sealing strip whereby an appropriate conformation may be realised in advance and in a repetitive manner, e.g. at a factory remote from the assembly line where the strip is applied to the edge. A further object is simplified means and methods of positioning the strip on the assembly line which opens up the possibility of automation of this positioning.
With this double objective in view, the invention provides a sealing strip for application to a bodywork edge such as an automobile door frame said strip comprising a metal armature in the form of a band or ribbon, which is either simply angled or is profiled in the shape of a "U", connected to a separately extruded sealing element, by means of hot melt fusible glue.
The previously known central metal armature, which was usually cut out in advance, is replaced by a simple band or a thin metal ribbon which is preferably sheathed with rubber or plastics material. This may then be profiled in the shape of a "U" (that is to say, a channel section) and combined with a sealing element, which was previously extruded separately, the two being finally shaped together by a known system of templates and rollers or pulleys to form a girdle.
The connection of the two ends of the girdles formed in this way is preferably at the lower region relative to the edge, e.g. of a door frame, to which it is to be fitted and there may be auxiliary
means, for compensation of length and for
locking, disposed in the connection zone.
Alternatively, the central U-shaped metal armature may be replaced by a thin metal ribbon which is simply angled. This results in easier
positioning and fixing of the eventual girdles or frameworks by gluing, or by clipping and it would
even be possible to have an automatic machine
adapted for this purpose.
The invention will be described further, by way
of example, with reference to the accompanying
drawings, in which:

Figs. 1 to 4 illustrate a first embodiment of the sealing strip of the invention and how same is made up. This embodiment includes a pinching profile in the form of a "U" having a central metal armature. It differs from previously proposed sealing strips in that this central armature is no longer cut out in a so-called "herringbone" or similar shapes, but merely consists of a thin metal ribbon of the order of 0.6 millimetre thickness which is advantageously made of aluminium alloy and is of a width appropriate for formation of the "U" (channel section). The ribbon 1 is pre-coated on its two faces with a customary undercoat to allow sheathing thereof, as indicated in Fig. 2, with good adherence, either with rubber or with plastics material such as P.V.C. (polyvinyl chloride), the material being designated by reference numeral 2.After vulcanisation or cooling, the sheathed ribbon is formed into the shape of a "U" (channel section), as shown in Fig.
3, and also combined with auxiliary profiles 3 and 4 which have been extruded separately and are destined to effect the finish and the sealing of the bodywork edge. The aforesaid parts are held firmly together by a fusible "hot melt" glue. The sealing element 4 includes a tubular portion which is advantageously cellular to improve sealing, e.g. of a door in a door frame. The sealing element 4 may be formed by so-called "double extrusion", if it is desired to have a so-called "double hardner" or "bis-hardness" profile. The inextensibility of the element 4 is ensured in known manner by incorporation of a wire 5.
Fig. 5 shows that a suitable length of the profile strip in accordance with Fig. 4 can easily be shaped in the factory and in advance of application to the bodywork edge in known manner, for example by means of shaping rollers or knurling tools against one or more shaping templates to produce repetitively the frameworks or girdles in accordance with Fig. 5. Any specially required conformations, for example to accommodate regions, such as that designated by numeral 6 in Fig. 6, where the free edge of the bodywork opening to be edged is formed by a super-position of two sheets may also be included in the mass-produced girdles or frameworks. The free ends of such girdles are joined, as shown, at a position such as that designated by numeral 7 which will be disposed at a lower region of the door frame so as to be less conspicuous.
Moreover the ends are hidden and held firmly together, at least in the case of a door frame, by being covered in customary manner by an auxiliary profile or nosing which is not shown.
It is easy to understand that the advantage of such frameworks or girdles, particularly for the bordering of frames of automobile doors is that they may be prepared in advance, in the factory, and can be rapidly positioned on the assembly line by virtue of their inherent elasticity. This elasticity is subsequently cancelled out by the simple fact of the mounting in place, followed by a kind of self-keying in the region 7 either by an additional strut or by inherent, additional, elasticity, in this zone, which may be subsequently concealed and improved by the aforesaid covering by nosing.
In a modified embodiment, in accordance with
Fig. 7, the elastic locking or holding together of the ends of the girdle in the region 7 of Fig. 5 may be achieved by additional elastic thicknesses 8 and 9 extending beyond the ends of the metal armature 1 which do not themselves meet, these thicknesses 8, 9 mutually butting at 10. In a further modification, the framework or girdle in accordance with Fig. 5 may be formed in two successive operations, firstly only the "U" profile, as shown in Fig. 3, being shaped, the auxiliary sealing elements, particularly the tubular profile including the inextensibility wire 5 being combined therewith at a later stage without in any way changing the original features of the new industrial products thus obtained.
In the second main embodiment of the sealing strip of the invention, as shown in Figs. 9 to 14, the armature is further simplified by consisting of merely a thin metal ribbon 11, again advantageously made of aluminium alloy of the order of 0.6 millimetre thickness. The ribbon 1 is lacquered orjapanned in known manner to ensure good adherance of the hot-melt fusible glue and one of its edges is angled or bent at 12 prior to shaping of same, in known manner, into the form of a framework or girdle, in accordance with Figs.
11 or 12.
The framework or girdle shown in Fig. 11 has its ends welded in the lower region, at 13, whilst that shown in Fig. 1 2 has its ends welded together at a corner 14, shown in this example as the upper right hand corner.
The girdles shaped in accordance with Figs. 11 or 12, are then combined, by gluing (again advantageously with a fusible hot melt glue) with a customary extruded sealing element 15, as is shown in Fig. 1 3.
It will readily be understood that the reinforced joint constituted in this way and shaped in advance into the form of a girdle or a framework, for example, for an automobile door frame, can be positioned in a simple manner which is easy to accomplish by an automatic presentation device or robot. Such a device would be programmed to centre the framework in the door opening 1 6 which has been prepared for this purpose in the bodywork. The fixing of the framework can be easily accomplished by mutual gluing (by a hot melt glue) in the interface 17 and the overall covering of the edges may be made aesthetic by a conventional dressing, for example a vacuumformed dressing, as is shown in dotted lines, in
Fig. 14.
In a third embodiment of the sealing strip of the invention, as iilustrated in Figs. 1 5 to 21, a somewhat wider thin ribbon 1 8 is covered with the usual undercoat, in order to ensure adherence, and sheathed in plastics material 19, advantageously P.V.C., by extrusion. The sheathed ribbon is profiled obliquely at 20 while its end 21 is hooked over. The resultant profile is then shaped, previously described, either into the form of a closed girdle welded at the bottom, at 23 as shown in Fig. 1 8 or, into the form of an "open" and elastically deformable framework, as shown in Fig. 1 9.
As previously mentioned, the frameworks shaped in this way, in accordance with Figs. 1 8 or 19, are combined by gluing, advantageously by a hot melt fusible glue, with a customary peripheral sealing element 15, as is shown by Fig. 20.
It will readily be understood that the sealing strips thus constituted and shaped in the form of girdles or framework for automobile door frames still remain easy to position, as has been discussed above. In particular an automatic presentation device would centre the girdle or framework in the opening 1 6 of the bodywork, whilst a supplementary thrust would ensure mutual cogging or clipping, as is shown by Fig.
21, by sliding of the oblique surfaces forming "ramps", the final fixing resulting from the combined effect of friction lips 22 and from the keying of the hooked over edge 21.
It is worth repeating that all the frameworks or girdles simplified in this way, particularly those to be used for edging automobile door frames, are advantageously prepared in advance so as to allow quick and easy positioning thereof, either
manually but preferably to a robot on the assembly lines, the actual fixing being ensured, either by gluing or by cogging clipping, or by a combination of these methods, or by other known ones.
Although this is evident, it is furthermore specified that the invention is in no way limited to the sole features and to the sole embodiments explicitly described (merely by way of examples) to elucidate the invention. On the contrary the scope of the invention extends expressly to all the modifications of execution and of application and particularly to those implementing. means and methods which are equivalent to those mentioned with the aim of realising the new industrial products characterising the present invention.
