Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a vehicle window frame, and more particularly to a vehicle window frame suitably applied to sliding windows in buses, trucks, and other vehicles.

(Prior art) As a type of vehicle window frame, it is attached in a liquid-tight manner to the peripheral edge of a window opening in a vehicle body, and both side edges thereof extend inward to form a groove that opens inward. The weatherstrip has a frame-shaped weatherstrip, and has two parallel grooves that are partitioned by the central flange and open inward and have an external shape corresponding to both side edges of the grooves of the weatherstrip. a frame that is fitted into the groove and whose side edges extend along the inner side of each side edge of the weather strip; and a frame that is fitted into the frame and opens inward within each groove of the frame; a glass run, each side edge of which has a pair of concave grooves extending along the side edge of the frame or the inside of the central flange, and slidably supports a pair of window glasses in both of the concave grooves; There are vehicle window frames made of

By the way, in the conventional vehicle window frame of this type, as illustrated in FIG.
b only slightly covers the tip of the side edge 2a of the frame 2, so if you put your finger F on the base end of the outer lip 1a, the outer lip 1
There is a problem in that the part a easily comes off from the side edge 2a of the frame 2.

(Purpose of the invention) The present invention was made in order to deal with such problems, and its main purpose is to adopt a molding as a component of the window frame for this type of vehicle, and to utilize this molding and glass run effectively. This will prevent the weather strip from coming off easily.

(Structure of the Invention) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a window frame for a vehicle of this type with a fitting groove that opens inward at least on the outside of the weather strip and extends in the longitudinal direction. A letter-shaped molding is externally fitted onto the side edges of the weather strip and frame extending along each other from the open end sides of these both side edges, and the outer end of the molding is fitted into the fitting groove of the weather strip. Another feature of the structure is that the inner end thereof is interposed between the side edges of the frame and the glass run.

(Operations and Effects of the Invention) As a result, in the present invention, at least the outer side edges of the weather strip and the frame are integrally covered with the molding.
The side edges of the weather strip will not easily come off when you put your finger on the weather strip or when you attach the window frame to the window opening in the vehicle body.

(Embodiment) Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a bus equipped with a window frame according to the present invention. In this bus, a window frame 20 according to the present invention is attached to an opening 11 provided on the side of the vehicle body 10, and a pair of inner and outer window glasses 12 and 13 fitted into the window frame 20 are attached to the vehicle body. 1
It is supported so as to be slidable in the front and rear directions of 0. Further, the window frame 20 is composed of a weather strip 21, a frame 22, a glass run 23, and a molding 24, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.

The weather strip 21 is a frame-like body made of rubber and has a substantially U-shaped cross section, and has a groove 21a that opens inward on its inner periphery, and the inner side of the side edges 21b1 and 21b2. Edge 21b
Only the opening end of the groove 21a is provided with a lip portion 21c that protrudes toward the bottom side of the groove 21a. The weather strip 21 is attached to an inward flange 14 provided in the opening 11 of the vehicle body 10 in a liquid-tight manner. The frame 22 is a metal frame-like body having a substantially W-shaped cross section, and has two grooves 22a1 and 22a2 opening inward on its inner periphery. Both of these grooves 22a1 and 22a2 are parallel to each other. The frame 22 also has a weather strip 21.
It is formed in an external shape corresponding to the groove 21a of the weather strip 21, and is fitted into the groove 21a of the weather strip 21, with its side edges 21b1 and 21b2 extending along the inside of the side edges 21b1 and 21b2 of the weather strip 21, Moreover, only the inner side edge 21b1 is interposed between the side edge 21b1 of the weather strip 21 and the lip 21c. The glass run 23 is a frame-like body made of resin and has a substantially W-shaped cross section.
There are two grooves 23a opening inward on the inner periphery.
1,23a2. These double grooves 23a
1 and 23a2 are parallel to each other, and these openings are formed by flexible projecting pieces 23c1, 23c2, 2 provided at the tips of the side edges 23b1, 23b2, 23b3.
It is covered by 3c3. Also, glass run 2
3 is formed in an external shape corresponding to the grooves 22a1 and 22a2 of the frame 22, and is fitted into both grooves 22a1 and 22a2, so that grooves 23a1 and 23a are formed in the grooves 22a1 and 22a2.
2 is located. As a result, the lip portion 21c of the weather strip 21 is interposed between the side edge portion 23b1 of the glass run 23 and the side edge portion 22b1 of the frame 22, and is prevented from coming off. Side edge portion 21b2,2
2b2 and 23b2 extend along each other. A pair of window glasses 12 and 13 are fitted into the grooves 23a1 and 23a2 of the glass run 23, and each of the window glasses 12 and 13 is slidably supported by the glass run 23. The window frame 20 is made up of these three members 21, 22,
23 and a molding 24 to be described later, the weather strip 21 is fitted into the inward flange 14 provided at the opening 11 of the vehicle body 10, and the window frame is fitted to a plurality of grommets (not shown) attached to the opening 11. It is assembled into the opening 11 by inserting and fixing a plurality of clips (not shown) from the inner peripheral side of the holder 20 .

Therefore, in the window frame 20 of this embodiment, the side edge 21b on the outside of the weather strip 21 is
A slit-shaped fitting groove 21d is provided at the proximal end of 2. This fitting groove 21d extends along the outside of the weather strip 21, and also extends along the side edge 21b2.
The outer end 24a of the molding 24 is fitted into the fitting groove 21d. The molding 24 is a frame-shaped body having a substantially U-shaped cross section and opening toward the outer periphery, and is made of a metal material. Further, the molding 24 is externally fitted from the open end sides of the side edges 21b2 and 22b2 of the weather strip 21 and the frame 22, and its outer end 24a is fitted into the fitting groove 21d of the weather strip 21, and its inner end 24b is interposed between the side edges 22b2 and 23b2 of the frame 22 and the glass run 23. Therefore, the side edge 21b2 of the weather strip 21 is integrally covered with the side edge 22b2 of the frame 22 by the molding 24, and when the window frame 20 is attached to the opening of the vehicle body 10, the weather strip 21, the molding 24, etc. Even if the weather strip 21 is hung on the side edge 22b2 of the frame 22,
It doesn't come off easily.

In addition, in the window frame 20, the weather strip 21 and the side edges 21b2 of the frame 22,
Since the window frame 22b2 is covered by the molding 24, the appearance is improved compared to the conventional window frame 20.

In this embodiment, the lip portion 21c of the weather strip 21 is made longer than the conventional one and is interposed between the frame 22 and the glass run 23 to prevent the lip portion 21c from coming off.
