Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a door device of a vehicle, particularly a cab-over type vehicle.

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a door provided in a cab of a cab-over type truck has a small height at a side portion of a seat located above an engine disposed below the cab, that is, a rear portion of the door, It has a special shape in which the height of the front part of the door, which is the passage for getting in and out of the seat, is large, and the upper part of the door is provided with windows for obtaining a side view and for ventilation.

The shape of the window is often the height of the front window with respect to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body, particularly in order to secure a side view when turning left, and because of the special shape of the door itself and the arrangement of seats in the cab. Is formed to be larger than the height of the rear window portion, and the front window portion and the rear window portion are usually separated by a center sash vertically provided substantially in the center of the window opening.

The rear window should be openable to ventilate the cab if necessary, and to allow the driver to pull out his / her head from the window and perform steering while checking backwards. It is customary. There are two types of windows that can be opened and closed: one that slides the window glass in the vertical direction and one that slides the window glass in the front and rear direction of the vehicle. The upper and lower sashes or run channels that guide the upper and lower edges of the window glass need to be arranged substantially parallel to ensure smooth sliding of the window, so that the shape of the door waist line, that is, the lower edge of the window opening, is set. However, there is a problem in that a sufficient lateral view cannot be secured. On the other hand, since the length in the front-rear direction of the lower sash or the run channel that slidably supports the lower edge of the rear window glass is relatively small, the possible forward sliding amount of the window glass is relatively small, and therefore, the vehicle can be operated during reverse steering It is difficult to secure a wide opening area so that a person can easily put out the head, and a sufficient ventilation effect cannot be obtained because the opening area is small.

Of course, by extending the lower run channel or the guide rail supporting the lower edge of the rear window glass forward beyond the center sash, the opening area of the rear window glass can be enlarged. Alternatively, since the extended portion of the run channel protrudes into the plane of the front window glass, the appearance is significantly impaired, and a new problem occurs in that the important view is lost only in the projected portion of the sash or run channel.

(Problem to be solved by the present invention) The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and has a high degree of freedom in setting the door waist line, so that a sufficient side view can be obtained, and the appearance is improved. An object of the present invention is to provide a door structure for a cab-over type vehicle provided with a back-and-forth sliding type rear window glass capable of securing a sufficient window opening area without damaging.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a window opening having an upper edge extending in a substantially horizontal direction and a lower edge inclined downward from the rear to the front. A center sash vertically installed in the middle part in the front-rear direction, a front window glass attached to the front window opening divided by the center sash, and a front sash attached to the rear window opening divided by the center sash and sliding in the front-rear direction.

According to the first aspect of the invention, the lower edge of the window opening above the door is formed to be inclined downward from the rear of the vehicle body toward the front, and a guide rail is provided along the lower edge of the window opening. A roller connected to the rear window glass via an arm is rotatably loaded into the rail, and the front and rear sliding of the rear window glass is guided by cooperation of the guide rail and the roller. By providing an aesthetically pleasing door waist line, it is possible to realize a wide area window opening with good side view, and slide the rear window glass back and forth without impairing the side view. By opening and closing, a wide fenestration area can be obtained. Next, according to the second invention,
Since the steadying member is provided at the front edge of the rear window glass in sliding contact with the surface of the front window glass, in addition to the effect of the first invention, the sliding of the rear window glass in the front-rear direction is further smoothed, and When the window is opened, the rear window glass is securely held.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawing, reference numeral 10 generally indicates a door for getting on and off mounted on a cab of a cab-over type truck, and the door 10 has a window opening 12 in an upper portion thereof. The window opening 12 has an upper edge extending substantially horizontally as shown in the figure and a lower edge linearly inclined downward from the rear of the vehicle body toward the front, and a front window opening is formed by a center sash 14 vertically provided at the center portion. A front window glass 16f and a rear window glass 16r are attached to the window openings 12f and 12r, respectively.

A rubber weather strip 18 is mounted on the four circumferences of the front window glass 16f, and a rear vertical edge thereof is supported by a groove 14a of the center sash 14, as shown in FIG. Window opening as shown in FIG.
Upper sash mounted approximately horizontally along the upper edge of 12
The lower edge is held in the outer groove portion 20a of the door inner panel 22 as shown in FIG.
The outer panel 24 is held by an outer groove portion 30a of a lower sash 30 provided on a door body 26 formed below the window opening and mounted on a flange 28 that limits the lower edge of the window opening 12. In addition, the inclined front edge of the front window glass 16f is held in a grooved front sash similar to the above, which is not shown, and the front window glass 16f is, in the case of the embodiment shown, a so-called insert-fit. The fixed window is formed.

On the other hand, the rear window glass 16r slides its upper edge through a rubber glass run 32 having a flexible lip in the inner groove portion 20b of the upper sash 20 when the window is closed as shown in FIG. The lower sash 30 is slidably fitted with a lower edge into an inner groove portion 30b of the lower sash 30 via a similar rubber glass run 34. Further, when the window glass 16r is closed, the rear vertical edge thereof is held by a rear sash 36 having substantially the same structure as the inner groove portion 20b of the upper sash and the inner groove portion 30b of the lower sash. ,
