レス構造の採用が近時積極的に推進される傾向にある。2. Description of the Related Art In a sunroof device, a guide groove for sliding a slider provided on a slide panel is provided.
Insertion groove for inserting drive push-pull cable,
And a side drain for draining rainwater out of the car is formed in a common member by extrusion molding of aluminum alloy material,
In recent years, the adoption of a so-called frameless structure in which this is directly attached to a fixed roof tends to be actively promoted.

うにしている。In this structure, the extruded material is extended on both sides of the opening provided in the fixed roof so as to serve also as a side frame member, and the front ends of the left and right side frame members are connected to each other by a front drain groove. The drainage grooves of the side frame member and the front frame member are connected so as to form a substantially U-shape in plan view by connecting the front frame members with each other.

The shape of the cross section orthogonal to the longitudinal axis is uniform over the entire length, and the above-described guide groove, insertion groove, and drain groove are all opened at the cut end surface. Here, the side drainage grooves must be rather opened toward the connecting portion with the front frame member to allow the left and right to communicate with each other, but if the guide grooves and the insertion grooves are open, flooding from there will occur. Does not necessarily cause malfunction.

は、これらを側部排水溝より高い位置に設ければ良いの
だが、フレーム収容空間の削減がメリットの一つである
フレームレス構造に、高さ寸法の増大を招くこのような
高低差を付けることは得策ではない。In order to prevent the guide groove and the insertion groove from being flooded, it is sufficient to provide them at a position higher than the side drain grooves. It is not advisable to provide such a height difference which causes an increase in the height dimension.
【0006】また、上記構造では排水溝の水を外部に排

あるが、そのための排水ノズルを別途コーナ部に取り付
けなければならず、その作業が煩雑であった。In the above structure, it is necessary to connect the drain groove to the drain tube in order to discharge the water in the drain groove to the outside. However, a drain nozzle for that purpose must be separately attached to the corner portion, and this operation is required. It was complicated.

る。For example, Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 7-14035 discloses that
A corner member having a drain groove aligned with a drain groove of each frame member and a drain nozzle connected to a drain tube (water pipe) is provided at a corner where the side frame member and the front frame member intersect. There is disclosed a structure in which drainage from a drainage groove of a member is received by the drainage groove of the corner member, and is discharged to the outside from a drainage nozzle via a drain tube.

ない。However, even in this structure, the corner member is provided at the lower portion of both frame members, and the drain grooves thereof are also formed at the front ends of the guide groove of the slider of the side frame member and the insertion groove of the push-pull cable. From facing,
For example, when a relatively large amount of water flows into the drainage ditch, for example, when the vehicle is tilted, flooding from the drainage ditch cannot always be prevented.

な課題の一つである。[0009] On the other hand, in the sunroof device, when the roof is released, the above-mentioned frame members are exposed to the outside. In addition to water, foreign matters such as dust enter the drainage groove and may be clogged in the drain tube or the like. Therefore, it is one of the important issues to facilitate the maintenance work for removing the dust and the like.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a sunroof frame structure which is improved so as to prevent water from infiltrating into a part other than the drainage groove, and which can easily be assembled and maintained.

及びメンテナンス容易性が向上する。As described above, according to the present invention, the front end of the pair of left and right side frame members integrally formed with the push-pull cable insertion groove, the slide panel guide groove and the side drain groove is formed by the front part. Connected by a frame member, and at a corner where these two members intersect, a drain groove portion matching each drain groove, a drain pipe connecting portion for communicating the drain groove portion and the drain pipe, and an opening of the fixed roof are formed. A side wall is formed by forming a water blocking wall erected along the peripheral edge and attaching a shielding member covering the upper surface of the push-pull cable insertion groove and the slide panel guide groove to each frame member so as to be continuous. In addition to preventing the rainwater accumulated in the drain groove of the front frame member from flowing into the slide panel guide groove and the push-pull cable insertion groove of the member, the corner on the front edge side of the opening can be prevented. To prevent the water droplets falling from the upper surface of the side frame member from invading and to appropriately drain rainwater to the outside, so that the push-pull cable insertion groove, the slide panel guide groove, and the side drain groove are at the same level. The structure of the sunroof frame can be simplified, the height of the housing space of the frame can be reduced, and the number of parts can be reduced by integrally forming the drain pipe connection part. Simplify further. In addition, the shielding member is made of a resin material integrally formed with a resilient engaging portion, and the resilient engaging portion is resiliently engaged with an engaging hole formed in each frame member to attach the shielding member. By doing so, the attachment and detachment of the shielding member is simplified, and the ease of assembly and maintenance is improved.
