Description

  The present invention relates to a door of an open car or a hard top car, in particular, a fixed bench glass 1 having a triangular shape on the front side as shown in FIG. 1, a side glass 2 that can be moved up and down, and a guide for partitioning both glasses 1 and 2. 2 and 3, when the door is closed, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the seal material is elastically contacted and sealed to the header weather strip 7 attached over the header 6 from the front pillar 5.

  The guide 3 for partitioning the bench glass 1 and the side glass 2 of the open car shown in FIG. 1 is made of steel and has a substantially H-shaped cross section as shown in FIG. A glass seal 9 that holds the bench glass 1 is inserted into the glass run channel 11 into which the side edge of the side glass 2 that is raised and lowered is inserted into the other side, and the extruded glass seal 9 and the glass run channel 11 are formed at the top of the guide. They are connected by a molded sealing material 8.

Since the sealing material 8 and the glass run channel 11 described above are covered with the sealing material 8, the sealing material 8 at the top of the guide slightly protrudes from the bench glass 1 and the side glass 2 as shown in FIG. Both the glasses 1 and 2 are stepped, and due to this step, gaps C ₁ and C ₂ are formed between the header weather strip 7 when the door is closed. Then, the rain water that has entered the inside of the vehicle through the gaps C ₁ and C ₂ , particularly the gap C ₁ on the side glass side, and the washing water at the time of washing the car, travel along the sealing material 8 that has been lowered forward as indicated by the arrows in FIG. Dripping into the trim of the door interior material.

The present invention is a seal material that is attached to the top of a guide partitioning a bench glass and a side glass and elastically contacts and seals the header weather strip of the front pillar when the door is closed. The inside of the vehicle from the gaps C ₁ and C ₂ during rain or car wash The water that has penetrated into the door can be reliably dripped into the door panel through the bench glass.

That is, the present invention includes a guide which rises toward the front pillar from the door panel, and benches glass side edge to glass seal is maintained to be mounted on the front side of the guide, glass run channel is mounted on the rear side of the guide A sealing material that is attached to the top of the guide of an automobile door having a side glass that is fitted in such a manner that its side edge can be moved up and down, and that seals by sealing the header weather strip of the front pillar when the door is closed. A water receiving lip is provided for receiving water that has entered the inside of the vehicle through the gaps C ₁ and C ₂ formed between the wood and the header weather strip and flowing down toward the glass surface of the bench glass . by extending the bead to the lower end of the bench the glass side to form an open culvert-like drain opening between the bench glass And wherein the door.

  The sealing material of the present invention may be separated from the glass seal and the glass run channel, but is preferably formed integrally with the extruded glass seal and the glass run channel by molding.

According to the present invention, water entering from the clearance C ₂ bench glass side when it rains or when car washing, flows down into the door panel along the vehicle interior side glass surface of the bench the glass, has entered from the gap C ₁ side glass side water It passes through the sealing material that has fallen forward, is received by the water receiving lip, is guided to the drain, and flows down along the glass surface of the bench glass. Then, it flows down into the door panel along the glass surface.

  Hereinafter, a sealing material according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. In the figure, the same reference numerals are given to the same structural portions as those shown in FIGS.

7 shows the seal material 21 at the top of the guide 3, FIG. 8 shows a cross section taken along the line CC of FIG. 7, FIG. 9 shows a cross section taken along the line DD, and the seal material 21 is formed by molding. 4 is formed integrally with the extruded glass seal 9 and the glass run channel 11 attached to the guide 3 shown in FIG. In addition, on the bench glass side of the sealing material 21, the upper end portion of the side edge of the bench glass 1 is fitted and held. The inside of the vehicle is concavely curved as shown in FIG. 8, and the water receiving lip 22 is integrally formed along the lower end portion of the sealing material inclined downward from the side edge intermediate portion on the side glass side. receiving water trickles down along the sealing member 21 at the invaded from the gap C _1, so that the guide is toward the glass surface of the arrow direction, i.e. bench glass 1 of FIG. Here, the water receiving lip 22 is formed from the short side intermediate portion on the side glass side, as shown in FIG. 8, when the sealing material 21 hits the header weather strip 7 when the door is closed, Therefore, the water dripping onto the sealing material 21 can be reliably received by the water receiving lip 22.

  At the lower end of the water receiving lip 22 on the bench glass side, a beat 23 is extended, and this beat 23 forms an open drain 24 between the water receiving lip 22 and the bench glass 1 as shown in FIG. The water flowing down 22 flows into the drain 24 and prevents it from flowing into the door panel along the glass surface of the bench glass 1.

  The sealing material according to the present invention is attached to a guide of an open car or a hard top car provided with a guide for partitioning a bench glass and a side glass, and is used for the purpose of sealing in contact with a header weather strip when the door is closed.
