DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automobile door structure capable of improving the assembling performance of a window glass mounted on an automobile window opening.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 10 to 12, a door for an automobile comprises a door panel 102 comprising a door outer panel 100 and a door inner panel 101, and a window glass 103 provided on the door outer panel 100 and the door inner panel 101. A window opening 104 for mounting is formed. Door outer panel 100 and door inner panel 101
Reinforcing reinforcements 105 and 106 are provided at the lower edge of the window opening 104.

A sash bracket 107 is provided on the upper edge and side edge of the window opening 104, and a glass run 108 is mounted on the sash bracket 107. The glass run 108 is formed by bending a part of the glass run 108 at the lower end corners of the side edge of the window opening 104 toward the lower edge of the window opening 104.
The outer side and inner side weather strips 109, so-called scalps, are mounted on the lower edge of the window opening 104 so as to overlap the lower edges of the window.

In such a conventional car door structure,
In order to attach the window glass 103 to the window opening 104, when there is an inclined portion at the front of the glass like a front door, as shown in FIG. Door panel 1 by tilting 103
Assemble to. Further, as shown in FIG. 14, when the glass cannot be inserted while both sides are parallel and inclined, as shown in FIG.
0 is formed, and the window glass 103 is inserted into the door panel 1 by using the notch 110.

[0005]

However, when the inclination θ of the window glass 103 is increased, as shown in FIG.
03, and if the inclination of the window glass 103 is reduced, the window glass 103 cannot be inserted unless the notch 110 is enlarged.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems and to provide a door structure for an automobile which facilitates assembling of a window glass mounted on a window opening of the automobile.

[0007]

According to the present invention, a door outer panel and a door inner panel are provided.
Outer Reinforcement and Inner Reinforcement
And each reinforcement is provided with a window opening
In the structure fixed to each flange at the lower edge of the
The window opening in the flanges on both sides of the door outer panel
Bay at the corner from both edges to the lower edge
A curved portion is provided, and a door outer panel in the curved portion is provided.
Notches are formed in the flanges on both sides of the
Utari down reinforcement of the lower edge of the door outer panel
Curved along the cross section of the door panel,
For the opening, mold the side and upper edges of the window opening.
The glass run is attached and the window glass is cut
It is to be assembled through the notch .

[0008]

The window glass is inserted into the door panel through the notch formed in the flange of the window opening. As the lower part of the side edge flange of the window opening is curved outward,
The window glass can be easily inserted from above.

[0009]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the drawings. 1 to 8, the drawings show a door panel 2 on which a window glass 1 whose both sides of the glass are parallel is mounted. The door panel 2 includes a door outer panel 3 and a door inner panel 4. An outer reinforcement for reinforcing the inner surfaces of the door outer panel 3 and the door inner panel 4 is provided at the lower edge of the window opening 5 provided in the door panel 2. 6 and an inner reinforcement 7 are provided.

Door outer panel 3 forming window opening 5
Lower side of both side flange portions 3a, ie, both side flanges
From the side edges to the lower edge of the window opening 5 in the portion 3a
A curved portion 8 that curves outward is provided at all corners.
You. On both sides of the door outer panel 3 in the curved portion 8
A notch 9 is formed in the flange 3a . The outer reinforcement 6 is curved along the lower edge of the door outer panel 3 so as to expand the cross-sectional shape inside the door panel.

The window opening 5 is provided with a glass run 10 in which the corners of the side edge and the upper edge of the window opening 5 are molded (see the hatched portion in FIG. 5), and the lower edge is provided. A weather strip 11, a so-called scalp, is mounted so that a part thereof is combined with the lower edge of the glass run 10.

The operation of the vehicle door structure having the above configuration will be described. When assembling the window glass 1 to the door panel 2, the window glass 1 is tilted and
From between the door outer panel 3 and the door inner panel 4. Since both side flange portions 3a of the window opening 5 of the door outer panel 3 have a lower portion curved outward, the window glass 1 can be easily inserted from above only by slightly tilting the window glass 1 as shown in FIG. It is.

[0013]

As described above, according to the vehicle door structure of the present invention, the following effects can be obtained. When attaching the door glass to the door panel,
Notches are provided at the lower part of both side edges of the curved part
With just a slight tilt of the window glass,
Easy insertion of window glass and easy installation
To improve . Near the curved part of the outer reinforcement
Shape conforms to the shape of the lower curved portion of the door outer panel.
When inserting the door glass into the door panel,
Assemble door glass to door panel without becoming evil
Installation workability, and the
The lower part of the opening can be reinforced. Door glass run
The side edges and upper corners of the window opening
To fit the shape of the curved section,
The shape of the flange of the outer panel
This improves the appearance and prevents water leakage. Door glass
Mold the corners of the slan and form the curved part of the door outer panel.
By opening the lower edge to the basic surface, the window opening
Door weatherstrips and doors attached to the lower edge of the
The shape of the connection at the lower part of Agullan is good.
Thus, the appearance can be improved and water leakage can be prevented.
