Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a spacer structure for adhesive window glass for automobiles and the like.

In cases where the window glass is attached by adhesive, spacer members or stopper members are attached to key points of the window frame in order to position the window glass in a fixed position relative to the window frame of the vehicle body. (For example, see Japanese Utility Model Application Publications No. 1983-44914, No. 56-57118, No. 76518-1988, and No. 95914-1989.) The spacer member and the stopper member are generally integrated. The conventional example shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 will be explained as follows.

The vehicle window frame portion 1 is formed by joining an outer panel 2 and an inner panel 3 of the vehicle body at a flange portion 4. The window glass 5 is fixed to this flange portion 4 with an adhesive 6. Prior to this bonding work, an appropriate number of spacers 7 (see FIG. 1, (shown in Figure 3). Further, a dam rubber 8 (shown in FIG. 2) is adhered to the window glass 5.

The spacer 7 determines the position of the window glass 5 with respect to the window frame portion 1. The spacer 7 has a spacer portion 7a and a stopper portion 7b and is integrally formed.The lower surface of the spacer portion 7a is adhered to the flange portion 4, and the peripheral side surface 5a of the window glass 5 is attached to the upper surface of the spacer portion 7a. When brought into contact with each other, the distance between the window glass 5 and the flange portion 4 is determined.

In addition, if the back surface of the stopper part 7b is adhered to the window shoulder part 2a and the peripheral edge surface 5b of the window glass 5 is brought into contact with the inner surface of the stopper part 7b, the gap position of the window glass 5 with respect to the window shoulder part 2a can be adjusted. Determined.

In this way, when the spacer 7 is attached to the window frame portion 1 in advance and the window glass 5 is then bonded with the adhesive 6, the adhesive located around the spacer 7 will not have a place to escape and will protrude. be.
That is, the peripheral edge surface 5b of the window glass 5 and the window shoulder 2a
The adhesive will overflow from the gap between the two in the F direction outside the vehicle, and the dam rubber 8 will be pushed down (as shown in FIG. 3), causing the adhesive to overflow inside the vehicle in the G direction. Particularly in the latter case, there is a drawback that a considerable number of man-hours are required to wipe off the protruding adhesive.

The present invention was devised to eliminate these drawbacks, and is designed to provide a spacer with a place for the adhesive to escape. The structure of the embodiment shown in FIGS. 4 to 8 will be explained as follows.

This is similar to the conventional example described above, in which the window glass 5 is fixed to the vehicle body window frame portion 1 with an adhesive 6, but the structure of the spacer is different from the conventional example.

That is, the spacers 12 used in this embodiment each have a block-shaped spacer portion 12a.
and a stopper portion 12b, and this spacer portion 1
2a and the stopper part 12b are arranged in a staggered manner, that is, relatively shifted in the thickness direction of the window glass 5, and also relatively shifted in the longitudinal direction of the peripheral end surface 5b of the window glass 5 (Figs. 4 to 4). (shown in Figure 6),
The corner portions of the spacer portion 12a and the stopper portion 12b are integrally formed through a continuous portion 12c that connects the corners.

Then, the lower surface of the spacer part 12a is covered with adhesive tape 1.
4 (as shown in FIG. 5), and the back surface of the stopper part 12b is attached to the window shoulder part 2a by adhesive tape 15.
(As shown in FIG. 5) If the peripheral side surface 5a of the window glass 5 is brought into contact with the upper surface of the spacer portion 12a in this state, the flange portion 4
The interval position of the window glass 5 is determined. Further, the peripheral edge surface 5 of the window glass 5 is provided on the inner surface of the stopper portion 12b.
If b are made to face each other, the position of the gap between the window glass 5 and the window shoulder 2a is determined.

If the spacer 12 is attached to the window frame part 1 in advance in this way, and then the window glass 5 is bonded with the adhesive 6, the adhesive located around the spacer 12 will be formed into a staggered shape. It flows into the gap 17 between the spacer part 12a and the stopper part 12b and fills it.
It does not protrude outside the vehicle from between the window shoulder portion 2a and the dam rubber 8, and it does not push down the dam rubber 8 and protrude to the indoor side.

As mentioned above, when using the spacer of the present invention, the adhesive will not lose its escape and overflow when bonding window glass, so there is no need to take extra steps to remove the overflowing adhesive. , which has a very significant practical effect.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] When directly attaching the window glass to the vehicle window frame using adhesive, there are a spacer part that determines the position of the peripheral side surface of the window glass with respect to the window frame, and a stopper part that determines the position of the peripheral end surface of the window glass with respect to the window frame. The spacer part and the stopper part are relatively shifted in the thickness direction of the window glass and in the longitudinal direction of the peripheral end surface of the window glass, and at least a part of the spacer part is disposed in the stopper part. A spacer structure for adhesive window glass, characterized in that a spacer part and a stopper part are integrally formed in a continuous manner.
