1 and the vehicle body 2, the wind molding 3 is installed between the vehicle body 2 and the vehicle body 2, and a fastening member 6 such as a screw is attached to the vehicle body 2.
Wind molding mounting clip 40 fixed with
(hereinafter simply referred to as clip 40).

Moreover, by supporting the lower end portion 12 of the window glass peripheral edge 11 on this clip 40,
A positioning portion 50 for positioning the window glass 1 is formed, and this positioning portion 50 includes a first positioning portion 510 against which the end surface 13 of the lower end portion 12 of the window glass comes into contact (supported), and a first positioning portion 510 for positioning the window glass 1. a second positioning portion that extends obliquely upward from the lower end of the portion 510 at a substantially right angle toward the upper side of the vehicle (that is, along the back surface 14 of the window glass lower end portion 12) and abuts and supports the back surface 14 of the window glass lower end portion 12; 520 (see FIG. 6, which shows a perspective view of the clip 40).

The end surface 13 of the lower end portion 12 of the window glass 12 is supported in contact with the first positioning portion 510 (side A) constituting the positioning portion 50 of the clip 40, thereby regulating the direction along the surface of the window glass 1. At the same time, the second positioning section 5
By abutting and supporting the back surface 14 of the lower end portion 12 of the window glass 12 on 20 (side B), the window glass 1 is positioned by regulating the direction perpendicular to the surface of the window glass 1. The window glass 1 (periphery 11) positioned by the positioning section 40 (positioning section 50) is fixed to the vehicle body 2 with an adhesive 7. Further, the adhesive 7 for fixing the window glass 1 is filled up to a second positioning part 520 that constitutes the positioning part 50 of the clip 40, and is blocked by this second positioning part 520 (i.e., this second positioning part 520).
(The positioning portion 520 is fixed by the adhesive 7), and the adhesive 7 is configured to be prevented from flowing toward the vehicle interior by the dam 8.

In FIG. 5, the reference numeral 9 indicates a package tray (interior material) inside the vehicle interior, and the reference numeral 10 indicates a luggage door.

Incidentally, as a prior art showing a window molding attachment clip having the function of positioning the window glass as described above, there is, for example, Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 1983-100111 (Utility Application No. 195237-1981).

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in the case of the wind molding attachment clip shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the clip 40 is attached to the vehicle body.
A fastening center axis C (that is, the center axis of the fastening member 6 such as a screw and the center of the hole drilled in the vehicle body) for fixing the clip 40 to the positioning part 5 formed on the clip 40.
Since the second positioning portion 520 (surface B that abuts and supports the back surface 14 of the lower end portion 12 of the window glass 1 and regulates the perpendicular direction of the window glass 1) constituting the clip 40 is apart in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, the clip 40 Due to variations in shape accuracy (dimensional error) of the vehicle body 2 (hole) to which the clip 40 is fixed, when the fastening member 6 is tightened to fix the clip 40 to the vehicle body 2, the second positioning portion 520
(Side B) may float upward (toward the outside) of the vehicle. Further, when positioning the window glass 1 by supporting the positioning portion 50 of the clip 40, the lower end portion 12 of the window glass 1
The end face 13 of the first
By being abutted and supported by the positioning part 510 (A side), this first positioning part 510 (A side)
is pressed toward the rear of the vehicle (rightward in FIG. 5) by the weight of the windshield 1, and as a result, the clip 40 rotates clockwise around the center point D of the fastening member 6 against the vehicle body 2 as a fulcrum. When a load is applied that causes the second positioning portion 520 to rotate in the direction, the second positioning portion 520 (surface B) may float upward (outward) of the vehicle, as in the case described above.

In this way, the second positioning section 520 (B
When the window glass 1 (periphery 11
The lower end 12) of the window rises (that is, the assembly accuracy of the window glass 1 is reduced), which deteriorates the appearance and also causes installation defects of the window molding 3, which also deteriorates the appearance. be.

Furthermore, the adhesive 7 for fixing the window glass 1 (periphery 11) to the vehicle body 2 is filled up to the second positioning part 520 so as to be blocked by the second positioning part 520.
Since the positioning portion 520 is also fixed with the adhesive 7, even if an attempt is made to remove the clip 40 during maintenance such as repair, the clip 40 cannot be easily removed, resulting in poor workability. The so-called service quality) will deteriorate.

Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to ensure proper assembly accuracy of the window glass that is supported and positioned by this clip without being affected by the fixing accuracy (fixed state) of the wind molding mounting clip to the vehicle body. , To prevent poor installation of a wind molding and to improve appearance.

[Means for solving problems]

Therefore, this invention solves the above-mentioned problem by forming a positioning part for positioning the window glass in the wind molding mounting clip with a first positioning part that regulates the direction along the surface of the window glass, and a second positioning part extending from the first positioning part. A second positioning part that regulates the direction perpendicular to the surface of the window glass, which is a spherical part or a columnar part formed at the tip of a rod-shaped member, and the second positioning part fixes the wind molding mounting clip to the vehicle body. This is attempted to be solved by absorbing the lifting that sometimes occurs and preventing the window glass from lifting (that is, ensuring the accuracy of the assembly of the window glass).

More specifically, a clip 4 for attaching a wind molding 3 along the periphery 11 of the windshield 1 and between the periphery 11 of the windshield 11 and the vehicle body 2, with reference numerals shown in FIG. This clip 4 is fixed to the vehicle body 2,

It is possible to prevent a decrease in the assembly accuracy of the wind molding 3, and thereby to prevent the wind molding 3 from being improperly installed, and the appearance of the area around the wind molding 3 can be greatly improved.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, embodiments of this invention will be described based on the accompanying drawings.

The drawings from FIG. 1 to FIG. 4 show an embodiment of this invention. For example, taking the case of a rear window glass at the rear of a vehicle body as an example, the rear window glass 1 is shown in FIG. A wind molding 3 is attached along the peripheral edge 11 of the glass (hereinafter simply referred to as the window glass 1), and as shown in FIG. It is attached to a wind molding attachment clip 4 (hereinafter simply referred to as clip 4) made of material. Further, the clip 4 is formed with a positioning portion 5 for positioning the window glass 1 by supporting the lower end 12 of the window glass periphery 11. Furthermore, the window glass 1 (periphery 11) thus positioned is fixed to the vehicle body 2 with an adhesive 7, and a dam 8 is configured to prevent the adhesive 7 from flowing toward the vehicle interior side. has been done. Furthermore, the reference numeral 9 in the diagram of FIG.
is the package tray (interior material) inside the vehicle, code 1
0 indicates the luggage door.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the clip for attaching the window molding is configured as described above, and as shown in FIGS. A first positioning portion 51 that the end surface 13 of the portion 12 contacts and supports, and a direction away from the first positioning portion 51 (that is, a diagonally upward side of the vehicle along the back surface 14 of the lower end portion 12 of the windshield in FIG. A thin rod-like member 52a that is flexible in the direction (direction toward
From a spherical part 52b (or a cylindrical part 52c as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIGS. 2 and 3) that is formed at the tip of the window glass and is supported by the back surface 14 of the lower end part 12 of the window glass. (clip 4
(See FIGS. 2 and 3, which show a perspective view of the unit.)

That is, the second positioning portion 52 includes a spherical portion 52b (or a cylindrical portion 52c) for abutting and supporting the back surface 14 of the lower end portion 12 of the window glass, and
This spherical part 52b (or cylindrical part 52c) and a thin rod-shaped member 52a formed to be interposed (connected) between the first positioning part 51 (that is, the clip main body), and the second positioning part 52 This thin rod-like member 52a is formed into a thin rod-like shape (or a string or a band-like shape) so that it can be bent freely, and moreover, these first positioning parts 51
and a second positioning part 52 (consisting of a spherical part 52b or cylindrical part 52c and a thin rod-shaped member 52a)
is formed integrally with the clip body.

In addition, the second positioning part 52 (especially the spherical part 52b or the columnar part 52) constituting the positioning part 5
c) is set (formed) so that the clip 4 overlaps the vehicle body 2 to some extent as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. Even when set (formed) in this way, the thin rod-like member 52a forming the second positioning portion 52 does not bend when the clip 4 is fixed to the vehicle body 2 by the fastening member 6. Accordingly, the second positioning portion 52 (particularly the spherical portion 52b) is properly arranged and fixed as shown by the solid line in FIG.

When positioning the window glass 1 in order to fix it to the vehicle body 2, the end face of the lower end portion 12 of the window glass is attached to the first positioning portion 51 forming the positioning portion 5 formed on the clip 4. 13 to control the direction along the surface of the window glass 1, and the back surface of the lower end portion 12 of the window glass 12 is attached to the spherical portion 52b of the second positioning portion 52 consisting of a thin rod-like member 52a and a spherical portion 52b. By abutting and supporting the clip 14 and regulating the perpendicular direction of the window glass 1, the window glass 1 can be reliably positioned at a predetermined position. ) The (peripheral edge 11) of the window glass 1, which has been positioned by the adhesive 7, can be properly fixed to the vehicle body 2 using the adhesive 7.

Further, the fastening center axis C for fixing the clip 4 to the vehicle body 2 and the second positioning portion 52 (particularly the spherical portion 52b that abuts and supports the back surface 14 of the lower end portion 12 of the windshield) are separated from each other in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. In the configuration of this invention as shown in FIG.
When the fastening member 6 is tightened to fix the clip 4 to the vehicle body 2 due to variations in shape accuracy (dimensional error) of the positioning portion 5 (positioning portion 5) and the vehicle body 2 (hole), the second positioning portion 52 (especially the spherical portion 52
b) tries to float upwards of the vehicle (that is, a load is applied to make it float), and when the positioning portion 5 of the clip 4 supports and positions the window glass 1, the lower end of the window glass Since the end surface 13 of the portion 12 is supported in contact with the first positioning portion 51, the first positioning portion 51 is pressed against the rear side of the vehicle by the weight of the window glass 1, and the clip 4 is tightened. When a load is applied that causes the center point D to rotate clockwise as a fulcrum, the second positioning portion 52 (particularly the spherical portion 52b) floats upward in the vehicle, similar to when the fastening member 6 is tightened as described above. It will try to float (that is, a load will be applied that causes it to float).

However, the spherical portion 52b of the second positioning portion 52 is formed to be connected to the first positioning portion 51 (ie, the clip body) by a thin rod-like member 52a. That is, the spherical portion 52
b and the first positioning portion 51 (clip body) are connected by a thin rod-like member 52a, and this thin rod-like member 52a is formed to be flexible, so that it can be fastened as described above. Part 6
The second positioning portion 5 is tightened by the windshield 1 and pressed against the rear side of the vehicle by its own weight.
2 (particularly the spherical portion 52b) tries to float upwards in the vehicle (that is, a load is applied that causes it to float), the second positioning portion 52 correspondingly (due to the load) By bending only the thin rod-shaped member 52a, it is possible to absorb the so-called lifting (load) of the second positioning portion 52 (especially the spherical portion 52b). This can reliably prevent lifting. In particular, as described above, the second positioning portion 52 (spherical portion 52b) is as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG.
If the positioning relationship is set (formed) in advance such that it overlaps the vehicle body 2 to some extent,
The above-mentioned function (action) by the bending operation of the thin rod-shaped member 52a of the second positioning portion 52 can be more reliably performed.

Therefore, by being able to reliably prevent the second positioning part 52 (particularly the spherical part 52b) from floating upward of the vehicle, the second positioning part 52 (particularly the spherical part 52b) can securely prevent the lower end of the windshield. The window glass 1 (lower end 12 of the peripheral edge 11) supported and positioned by the clip 4 (positioning part 5) can be prevented from lifting up. In other words, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the assembly accuracy of the window glass 1 and ensure proper assembly accuracy of the window glass 1, thereby greatly improving the appearance. Since it is possible to reliably prevent the window molding 3 from being improperly attached by the clip 4 on which the portion 5 is formed, the appearance can be greatly improved from this point as well. In other words, the overall appearance around the wind molding 3 can be greatly improved.

Further, the adhesive 7 for fixing the window glass 1 (periphery 11) to the vehicle body 2 is filled up to the spherical part 52b of the second positioning part 52, but this spherical part 52b has a spherical shape. and is only partially fixed with the adhesive 7,
When removing the clip 4 during maintenance such as repair, the second
By cutting the thin bar-like member 52a of the positioning portion 52, the clip 4 can be easily removed, and workability (so-called serviceability) can be greatly improved.

Note that the thin rod-shaped member 5 forming the second positioning portion 52
The shape of the member formed at the tip of 2a is not the spherical part 52b as explained in the above embodiment, but a cylindrical part 52c as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIGS. 2 and 3. In addition, the thin rod-shaped member 52a indicating the second positioning portion 52 is not limited to the shape of a thin rod, but may be formed in any shape as long as it is flexible (for example, a string shape or a band shape). It is acceptable to do so.

In addition, although this embodiment has been described with reference to the case of the rear window glass 1 at the rear of the vehicle body, the invention is not limited to this, and may be applied to a front window glass at the front of the vehicle body, a quarter window glass at the side of the vehicle body, etc. It can be applied to any type of clip for attaching a wind molding that is attached to the periphery of a window glass that is fitted into the window.

[Effect of idea]

As mentioned above, this invention has a structure in which the positioning part for positioning the window glass formed on the window molding attachment clip is supported in contact with the lower end of the window glass to regulate the direction along the surface of the window glass. 1 positioning part, consisting of a spherical part or a cylindrical part formed at the tip of a thin rod-like member extending from the first positioning part, which abuts and supports the back surface of the lower end of the window glass so as to align the direction perpendicular to the plane of the window glass. The first positioning part and the second positioning part make it possible to reliably position the window glass at a predetermined position. When variations in dimensional accuracy occur in the vehicle body, the second positioning section may float upwards of the vehicle due to the tightening of the clip by the fastening member and the pushing of the first positioning section toward the rear of the vehicle due to the weight of the windshield. (applies a load that causes it to float)
Even if the second positioning part (especially the spherical part or the cylindrical part) is lifted up (load) by bending the thin rod-shaped member forming the second positioning part in response to this, Since this lifting can be reliably prevented, lifting of the window glass (the lower end of the periphery) can be prevented. In other words, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the assembly accuracy of the window glass, ensure proper assembly accuracy of the window glass, and greatly improve the appearance. Defects can be prevented and the appearance of the entire area around the wind molding can be greatly improved.
