Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method in which a side edge of a front window glass along a front pillar of a vehicle and a front edge of a molding of a side fix window are fitted in a gap facing each other. The present invention relates to a fixing structure of a front window molding to be fixed. 2. Description of the Related Art FIGS. 2 and 3 show known mounting structures for a front window molding.
The front window molding 3 is a front edge portion of a molding 21 surrounding the side window glass 20 surrounding the side window glass 20 of the side fix window 2 and the side edge of the front window glass 1 which is arranged and fixed along the front pillar P with an adhesive S. 2
11 is fitted and fixed in a gap facing the same. [0003] The front window molding 3 has an outer lip 32 extending from a main body 30 having a U-shaped cross section provided with opposed inner lips 31, and the main body 30 is fitted to a side edge of the front window glass 1 when mounting. The outer lip 32 is pressed into contact with the molding front edge 211 of the side fix window 2 while the outer lip 32 is
The main body 30 is pressed against and fixed to the front window glass 1 by the reaction force of the above, and the gap is closed. In the figure, C is a cowl louver, which covers the lower edge of the front window glass 1. F is a front fender panel, which covers the lower terminal of the front wind mall 3 and the side fix window 2
Extends to the rear end. FIG. 3 (A) shows a cross section of a general portion of a front window molding mounting portion, and FIG. 3 (B) shows a cross section of a lower end portion thereof. When the front window molding 3 is moved by the bending of the outer lip 32 even when an external force is applied to the front window molding 3,
0 is in contact with the upper surface of the front pillar P to restrict the movement. [0005] Incidentally, depending on the type of vehicle, in order to improve the appearance design of the vehicle, the lower end of the front window is pushed out toward the front of the vehicle to reduce the inclination of the front window. There is. In this case, the inclination of the front pillar P also becomes gentle in accordance with the inclination angle of the front window. However, due to the structure of the vehicle body such as a suspension tower provided on the side wall of the engine room, the lower end of the front pillar P is attached to the front window glass. There is a case where it is not possible to advance to the lower end position of 1. In such a case, if the structure is connected to the vertical pillar at a position before the lower end of the front pillar P reaches the lower end of the front window glass 1, the lower end of the front window molding 3 is shown in FIG. Unlike the structure described above, there is no front pillar P that supports the front window molding 3. For this reason, if any external force is applied to the lower end of the front window molding 3, the outer lip 32 cannot be supported only by the pressing force of the fixing window 2 against the molding 21, and the main body 30 is not supported by the front window glass. There is a possibility that the vehicle may fall off from the side edge of the vehicle 1 and fall downward, which may affect the appearance of the vehicle, or that wind may enter the vehicle from the gap separated from the front window molding 3 and generate wind noise when the vehicle is running. . Accordingly, the present invention has been made in view of such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a mounting structure of a front window molding which can prevent the lower end from coming off even when an external force is applied to the lower end of the front window molding. It was done. According to the present invention, the lower end is provided with a flow.

In the present invention, since the lower end of the front window molding is bonded and fixed to the extension provided at the front edge of the molding of the side fix window, even if the front pillar does not exist below the lower end, When an external force is applied to the lower end, the lower end does not come off the windshield. An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 3A. The conventional mounting structure of the general front window molding shown in FIG. 3A is common to the present invention. 1 is a front window glass, 2 is a side fix window, and a side edge of the front window glass 1 disposed along the outer surface of the front pillar P and a front edge 211 of the molding 21 of the side fix window 2 are interposed. The front pillars P are adhesively fixed to the outer surfaces of the front pillars P with an adhesive S. Reference numeral 3 denotes a front window molding, which is fitted and fixed in the above-mentioned gap, and closes the gap to prevent invasion of wind when the vehicle travels. C in the drawing covers the lower edge of the front window glass 1 with a cowl louver. Also, F is a front fender panel that cuts off the unillustrated engine hood and front door and the lower edge of the side fix window 2.
