Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a mounting structure for a window molding that is attached around the window glass of a front window or back window of an automobile.

[Prior Art] The opening edge of a front window or back window of an automobile is generally formed into a stepped shape, consisting of a vertical surface that bends from the exterior surface of the vehicle body toward the interior, and a horizontal surface that folds from the vertical surface in a direction approximately parallel to the exterior surface of the vehicle body. The molding is held in place by a clip provided on the edge of the opening.

However, since the stepped opening edge has a different cross-sectional shape depending on the part, moldings having shapes corresponding to each part are used and the moldings are connected by joints.

That is, for example, in the back window shown in FIG. 6, the cross-sectional shape of the stepped opening edge consisting of the vertical surface 11 and the horizontal surface 12 in the side portion 2A of the opening 1 is as shown in FIG. The cross-sectional shape of is as shown in Fig. 8,
The inclination angles of the vertical surfaces 11 with respect to the outer surface of the vehicle body are mutually different.

Therefore, the actual situation is that the side portion 2A and lower portion 2B of the window molding 2 have different shapes, and the corner portions between them are joined by a joint 3. For this reason, moldings of different shapes must be prepared for the side part and the lower part, and these must be joined by preparing joints, which poses problems in terms of cost and installation workability. The presence of joints is not desirable in terms of the design of the mall.

[Problems to be solved by the present invention] The present invention was made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances.
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a molding mounting structure that makes it possible to set a window molding with a sense of unity without using joints even at the window opening edge where the cross-sectional shape differs depending on the part, thereby solving the problems of the conventional method. be.

[Means for solving the problem] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the clip 4
The locking leg 42 is provided with a protrusion 43 on its outer surface, and by bringing the protrusion into contact with the vertical surface 11 of the window opening, a gap 7 is formed between the outer surface and the vertical surface 11 of the clip 4. In this case, the degree of protrusion of the protrusion 43 of each clip 4 is varied in accordance with the inclination angle of the vertical surface 11 at the clip attachment site, so that the opening width of the gap 7 is set to be approximately the same at each site. The locking claw 22 of the molding 2 is inserted into this gap 7, and the protrusion 43
The structure is such that it locks onto the outer surface of the clip directly above it.

[Operation and Effect] Even if the cross-sectional shape of the vertical surface 11 of the window opening edge changes as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the positional relationship between the outer diameter end of the molding 2 and the upper end of the vertical surface 11 of the window opening remains unchanged. is constant, and moldings of the same shape can be used.

[Example] As shown in Fig. 1, one molding 2 having the same cross-sectional shape and dimensions and bent at a curvature along the opening is attached to both sides and the lower part of the opening 1 of a back window of an automobile. There is. A separate molding 20 is attached to the top part, and both ends of the molding 20 are connected to both ends of the molding 2 at joints 30.

As shown in FIG. 2, the side portion of the window opening 1 is a step-shaped opening consisting of a vertical surface 11 that is bent at a substantially right angle from the outer surface 10 of the body, and a horizontal surface 12 that is bent from the vertical surface 11 in a direction along the outer surface 10 of the body. forming a rim. In addition, the corner portion of the window opening 1 forming a gentle curve is formed by a step consisting of a vertical surface 11 bent at an obtuse angle from the outer surface 10 of the body and a horizontal surface 12 bent from the vertical surface 11 in a direction along the outer surface 10 of the body. It forms a shaped opening edge. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the lower portion of the window opening 1 forms a stepped opening edge substantially similar to the corner portion.

Clips 4 made of synthetic resin are attached to the opening edges of both side parts and the lower part, respectively.
The clip 4 includes a glass holding part 41 that covers the outer periphery of the window glass 6 and presses it, and a locking leg 42.
Thus, the tip of the locking leg 42 is locked to the fastener 5 fixed to the edge of the opening at a position where the vertical surface 11 and the horizontal surface 12 are continuous.

A protrusion 43 is formed on the outer surface of the locking leg 42 of each clip 4 facing the vertical surface 11, the tip of which abuts against the vertical surface 11. As a result, a gap 7 is formed between the vertical surface 11 and the clip 4 at the upper part of the protrusion 43. The degree of protrusion of the protrusion 43 differs depending on each clip. That is, the degree of protrusion is increased at both side portions, and the degree of protrusion is decreased at the corner portions and lower portions where the vertical surface 11 has a gentle inclination angle, and the width of the opening of the gap 7 between each clip and the vertical surface 11 is adjusted. are set so that they are almost the same. A molding locking groove 44 is formed on the outer surface of the clip 4 at a position directly above the protrusion 43.

The molding 2 is made of metal such as SUS or synthetic resin, and its outer diameter side is bent inward at a substantially right angle, and a locking pawl 21 is formed at the tip. Further, a lip 22 made of soft synthetic resin is formed on the outer diameter surface of the molding 2, and a protector 23 also made of soft synthetic resin is integrally molded with the main body at the inner diameter end. Thus, the molding 2 engages the locking pawl 21 in the molding locking groove 44 of the clip 4, and the protector 23 at the inner diameter end locks the clip 4.
The clip 4 is held in a state where it is pressed between the tip of the glass holding part 41 and the glass 6.
The opening of the cavity 7 is covered with a lip 22.

Therefore, the positional relationship between the locking pawl 21 of one molding 2 having the same cross-sectional shape and the vertical surface 11 whose shape changes at the side, corner and lower portions of the opening edge 1 changes. , the positional relationship between the outer diameter end of the molding 2 and the upper end of the vertical surface 11 facing it is the same at each location. Therefore, a series of moldings can be installed without using joints.

In addition, if it is difficult to bend the corner part of one molding due to the cross-sectional shape of the molding and the shape of the corner part of the window opening, the fifth
As shown in the figure, the molding is divided into both side parts 2A and a lower part 2B, and the moldings 2A and 2B are respectively secured to clips using the above-mentioned mounting structure.
A structure may be adopted in which the connection ends 25 of A and 2B are fitted together.

As explained above, according to the present invention, both side parts and the lower part of the molding of a front window or a back window of an automobile have the same cross-sectional shape, and can be attached to the window opening without using a joint. This makes it possible to reduce material costs, facilitate installation of the molding, and improve the appearance of the molding.
