Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide a guide device that can smoothly guide the vertical movement of an automobile door glass. [Structure] A holder body 1 is provided that is adhesively fixed to the edge of the door glass when guiding the vertical movement of the automobile door glass via the slider 6 and the guide rail, and the slider 6 is fixed to the holder body 1. Moreover, by integrally forming elastic walls 10 and 11 on the slider 6 that come into elastic contact with the inner wall surface of the guide rail, the slider 6 can be easily attached to the door glass without forcibly drilling a mounting hole in the door glass. It is possible to install it. In addition, even if there are dimensional errors or positional deviations between the slider 6 and the guide rail, these errors can be efficiently absorbed by the deflection of the elastic walls 10 and 11, so that the slider 6 can move smoothly inside the guide rail. This solves the problem of the door glass moving up and down and not being able to smoothly guide the up and down movement of the door glass.

Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea]

0001

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to the improvement of a guide device that guides the upward and downward movements of automobile door glass. It is something.

0002

[Conventional technology]

As a conventional guide device of this kind, for example, there is a guide device disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 57-88867. There are things. Although not specifically shown, the conventional guide device is located at the bottom of an automobile door glass. The slider attached to the door panel has a U-shaped cross section built into the inside of the door panel. By fitting into the guide rail of the slider and moving the slider up and down within the guide rail, This device aims to guide the movement of the door glass as it moves up and down via a drive mechanism. Drill a mounting hole at the appropriate location at the bottom of the glass, and insert the bolt part of the slider into the mounting hole. Then, tighten the tip of the bolt with a nut to attach the slider to the door guard. It is configured to be attached directly to the lath. In addition, regarding the structure of the slider itself, the head of the bolt mentioned above is held in a swingable manner. Other than that, its overall shape is just that of a normal roller. Therefore, when opening and closing the door glass using a manual or electric drive mechanism, The roller type slider moves up and down inside the guide rail to open the door glass. This makes it possible to move up and down on a predetermined trajectory.

0003

[Problem that the idea aims to solve]

However, such a conventional guide device simply moves a roller-shaped slider into a U-shaped guide. Since the slider is moved up and down within the guide rail, the distance between this slider and the guide rail is If there is a dimensional error or a slight positional shift, etc., the As a result, the roller slider moves up and down inside the guide rail, causing the drive to We have solved the major problem of not being able to smoothly guide the Agulhas' vertical movement. had. In addition, with conventional guide devices, a mounting hole is forcibly drilled in the door glass, and the installation is difficult. Installing a slider using a hole is difficult when drilling or installing a slider. , as it may cause cracks in the door glass, which is undesirable from a structural standpoint. Needless to say, insert the bolt part of the slider into this mounting hole and Since the nut must be carefully tightened from the same direction, the process, including the drilling work, It also had the problem that the rider installation work was naturally difficult. Furthermore, the guide rail that receives the slider is parallel to the door glass surface. Since the guide rail will be incorporated into the vehicle, the incorporation of this guide rail will I also disliked the fact that the thickness of the aperture itself inevitably became larger.

0004

[Means to solve the problem]

This invention was developed to effectively solve the problems of conventional guide devices. The system guides the lifting and lowering of automobile door glass via sliders and guide rails. It is equipped with a holder body that is adhesively fixed to the edge of the door glass. In addition, while the slider is fixed to the holder body, the slider is A structure is adopted in which an elastic wall that comes into elastic contact with the inner wall surface of the guide rail is integrally formed.

[0005]

[Effect]

Therefore, in the present invention, the slider is fixed to the holder body and the holder is If the body is fixed to the edge of the door glass using adhesive, it can be attached to the edge of the door glass as usual. You can easily attach the slider to the door glass without having to forcefully drill a mounting hole in the door glass. It becomes possible to Therefore, after that, move this slider to the guide built inside the door panel. If fitted to the rail, it can also be used when opening and closing the door glass manually or with an electric drive mechanism. In conjunction with this, the slider above moves up and down within the guide rail, so the door guard The lath can move up and down on a predetermined trajectory.

[0006] However, in the present invention, the slider has an elastic force that comes into contact with the inner wall surface of the guide rail. Due to the fact that the slider and guide rail are integrally formed, there may be a dimensional error between the slider and the guide rail. Even if there are differences or slight positional deviations, these dimensional errors can be compensated for by the deflection of the elastic wall. This allows the slider to absorb moisture efficiently, preventing the slider from colliding with the guide rail due to dimensional errors, etc. It can move up and down while rattling inside and smoothly guide the raising and lowering of the door glass. This eliminates the worry that the device will not work properly.

[0007]

【Example】

Below, the present invention will be described in detail based on an embodiment illustrating the invention. The door device also connects automobile door guards via sliders and guide rails, as in the past. It guides the raising and lowering movement of the lath, and its features are as shown in Figure 1. A new holder body 1 is used that is fixed to the lower edge of the rear end of the door glass using adhesive. With this in mind, a slider 6 having a function of absorbing dimensional errors etc. is fixed to the holder body 1. The point is that it has a structure that allows for

[0008] To explain this specifically, the former holder body 1 consists of two sheets of paper, as shown in the figure. It is formed by stainless steel plates 1a and 1b, and one side peripheral edge of both stainless steel plates 1a and 1b is formed. are overlapped and welded, and the following slider 6 is screwed in the vertical direction of the welded periphery 2. While providing a screw hole 3 for inserting, the other side of one stainless steel plate 1a is bent and A door guard is placed between the bent other side of the stainless steel plate 1a and the corresponding part of the other stainless steel plate 1b. Defines a U-groove 4 into which the lower edge of the rear end of the lath is inserted, and protects the U-groove 4 at an appropriate position. It is configured to attach a clip 5.

[0009] The latter slider 6 is an integrally molded synthetic resin product, as shown in Figs. 2 and 3. A recess into which the welded peripheral edge 2 of the holder body 1 is fitted is provided in the center of the rectangular base 7. 8 and passes through an insertion hole 9 through which the screw means 13 is inserted in both side walls of the base body 7. and both sides of the opening edge of one side wall of the base 7 defining the recess 8. The first elastic member has a curved claw shape that bends toward the rear while maintaining a predetermined space S1. The wall 10 is integrally formed, and the back side of the base body 7 is provided with a hollow portion S2 that protrudes rearward. An arch-shaped second elastic wall 11 is integrally formed, and the first and second elastic walls 10 and 1 1 are individually brought into elastic contact with the inner wall surface of the guide rail. In addition to this, in this embodiment, there is an air gap that allows the first elastic wall 10 to bend. A rubber packing or the like is placed between the space S1 and the hollow part S2 that allows the second elastic wall 11 to bend. A configuration in which an elastic material 12 is attached is adopted.

0010 Therefore, when guiding the vertical movement of the door glass G under a guide device with such a configuration, In this case, a corresponding one of the holder body 1 is placed in the recess 8 formed in the base body 7 of each slider 6. The welded peripheral edges 2 are respectively inserted, and the screw means 13 is inserted through the insertion hole 9 of the base body 7, When the screw means 13 is screwed into the screw hole 3 on the side of the welding periphery 2, the slider 6 is attached to the holder. - Can be securely fixed to body 1. Therefore, in this state, insert the bottom of the rear end of the door glass G into the U groove 4 of the holder body 1. Insert the edge and attach the holder body 1 to the lower edge of the rear end of the door glass G via the adhesive 14. If it is fixed with adhesive, there is no need to forcibly drill a mounting hole in the door glass G as in the conventional case. As shown in Fig. 4, the slider 6 can be attached extremely easily to the door glass G side. becomes possible. Therefore, as shown in FIG. Once fitted into the guide rail 15, the door glass G can be moved by a manual or electric drive mechanism (Fig. (not shown), in conjunction with this, the guide rail 15 is moved inside the guide rail 15. Since the rider 6 moves up and down, the door glass G can move up and down on a predetermined trajectory. becomes.

[0011] However, in this embodiment, the slider 6 has an impact force on the inner wall surface of the guide rail 15. Because the first and second elastic walls 10 and 11 that are in contact with each other are integrally formed, Even if there is a dimensional error or a slight positional deviation between the slider 6 and the guide rail 15, Among these dimensional errors and positional deviations, those occurring in the X direction in the figure are caused by the first elastic wall 10. It is efficiently absorbed by the deflection of the second elastic wall 11, and what occurs in the Y direction in the figure is due to the deflection of the second elastic wall 11. The slider can absorb dimensional errors and positional deviations more efficiently. - 6 moves up and down within the guide rail 15 while rattling, and the door glass G moves up and down. There is no need to worry about not being able to provide smooth guidance. Moreover, the first and second elastic walls 10 and 11 are arranged in the respective spaces S1 or hollow parts S. Since it will be reinforced by the elastic material 12 attached to the However, there is no need to worry about damage, and it also has enhanced elasticity and soundproofing effects. I can wait. However, in order to absorb dimensional errors, etc., the elastic material 12 is absolutely necessary. It's not essential.

0012 In the above embodiment, two sliders 6 are fixed to the holder body 1. However, it goes without saying that the number of sliders 6 to be fixed can be determined arbitrarily. However, in order to obtain the function of the second elastic wall 11 of the slider 6, it is necessary to It is necessary to proactively provide a bent portion 15a on one side of the idle rail 15.

[0013]

[Effect of the idea]

As described above, in the present invention, the holder is adhesively fixed to the edge of the door glass. Use your body to attach the slider that moves up and down within the guide rail to the door glass. Because of this feature, it is not necessary to forcefully drill a mounting hole in the door glass as in the past. It is possible to easily attach the slider to the door glass without installing it. This not only eliminates the worry of cracks in the door glass, but also prevents the slider from cracking. The installation work for the door glass will also be greatly simplified.

[0014] In addition, the slider has an integrally formed elastic wall, so even if the slider Even if there are dimensional errors or slight positional deviations between the elastic wall and the guide rail, Due to the deflection obtained from the idle rail's elastic contact with the inner wall surface, these dimensional errors and Positional deviations, etc. can be absorbed efficiently. Therefore, due to dimensional errors etc., The slider moves up and down with some wobbling to smoothly guide the raising and lowering of the door glass. This eliminates the worry of not being able to do something.

[0015] Also, the holder body that fixes the slider must be adhesively fixed to the edge of the door glass. The guide rail does not have to be installed parallel to the door glass surface as in the past. It can also be installed along the edge of the door glass, reducing the thickness of the door itself. It is fully possible.
