[Industrial applications]

 The present invention, when trying to fix the window glass to the edge of the window opening opened in the car body of the automobile, the window glass is mounted accurately and with sufficient strength at a desired proper position so that the window glass does not deviate. The present invention relates to a window glass mounting device for an automobile, which is intended to ensure that

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As is well known, in automobiles, a window glass is attached to the window opening edge of the vehicle body by using a sealant agent. Although various attachment devices have been proposed, the vehicle body of FIG. As shown in FIG. 3, which is an enlarged cross-sectional view taken along the line III-III of FIG. 3A, the window glass 1 and the wind molding 2 are separately separated from the window opening edge portion 3 of the vehicle body A as described below. The members are attached.

That is, in a window opening edge portion 3 which is bent and has an opening portion 4 as is known, a window glass 1 with a sealant 5 is attached to a mounting portion 3 a mounted on the opening portion 4. The outer peripheral edge portion 1a of the window glass 1 is adhered, but since the window glass 1 is attached in a predetermined position in the vertical and horizontal directions, the window glass fixing clip 6 is fixed to the window glass 1 with the adhesive 6a. The locking end portion 6b of the window glass fixing clip 6 is locked to the end edge 3a 'of the mounting portion 3a.

On the other hand, since the window molding 2 which is provided over the outer peripheral edge portion 1a of the window glass 1 and the rising portion 3b of the window opening edge portion 3 is attached to the window opening edge portion 3, it is a separate member. The molding fixing clip is adhered to the bent portion 3c of the window opening edge portion 3 with the double-sided adhesive tape 7a, and the hook 2b of the molding clip 2a fixed to the wind molding 2 is attached to the locking portion 7b of the molding fixing clip 7. I am trying to lock it.

Therefore, according to the above-described conventional window glass attaching device, the window glass 1 is fixed to the attaching portion 3a by the window glass fixing clip 6, while the window molding 2 is a separate member fixed to the bent portion 3c. Since it is fixed to a certain molding fixing clip 7, it becomes difficult to sufficiently improve the mounting accuracy of the window glass 1 and the window molding 2.

Further, since the window glass fixing clip 6 is locked to the end edge 3a ′ which is a free end of the mounting portion 3a provided in the opening 4, the mounting strength of the window glass 1 is also reduced. In addition, since the window glass fixing clip 6 is arranged behind the window glass 1, in order to prevent this from being seen from the outside, the window glass 1 has a considerable range in the outer peripheral edge portion 1a. Not only the masking portion 1b must be formed over the entire area, but also the window glass fixing clip 6 extends below the attachment portion 3a. Therefore, the escape 9 is formed so that the trim 8 does not hit it. There must be.

Therefore, as an improvement example of the above-mentioned conventional example, the ones shown in FIG. 4 (Actual Development Sho 62-54810) and FIG. 5 (JP-A 61-44021) are already known. A first clip a is attached to the outer peripheral edge portion 1a of the window glass 1 and is adhered to the mounting portion 3a of the window opening edge portion 3 with a sealant 5, and the first locking portion b of the first clip a is separately provided. The upright piece e of the second clip d fixed to the bent portion 3c by the double-sided adhesive tape c is locked to the second locking portion f of the second clip d, and the window molding g is attached to the end of the first clip a. The part a'is engaged with the first engaging part b, respectively.

Therefore, in this case, although the member such as the window glass fixing clip 6 in FIG. 3 is unnecessary and the above defect can be improved, the window glass 1 is set on the window opening edge portion 3 and as described above. When the work for locking the second locking part f to the first locking part b is performed, since the window glass 1 is considerably heavy, the locking work is performed while making full use of an auxiliary tool prepared separately. As a result, even a skilled person has difficulty in centering operation of the windshield 1, work efficiency is poor, and accuracy of attachment to an appropriate position is reduced.

Further, in the above work, as shown in FIG. 4, the separation distance L (opening) from the outer peripheral edge of the window glass 1 to the bent portion 3c extends over the entire upper, lower, left and right sides of the window opening edge portion 3. It is required to be uniform, but in reality, the dimensions of the window opening edge portion 3 and the window glass 1 vary depending on the vehicle body, and in addition, due to the double-sided adhesive tape c such as the second clip d. It depends on the sticking accuracy, and when the first clip a and the second clip d are engaged with each other, the opening at that portion becomes small. As a result, the position of the window glass 1 is unintentionally deviated. Will end up.

Even in the conventional example shown in FIG. 5, the first locking portion i is formed at the other end of the first clip h fitted on the outer peripheral edge portion 1 a of the window glass 1. Then, the second clip k is fixed to the bent portion 3c of the window opening edge portion 3 with the double-sided adhesive tape j, and the first locking portion i is locked to the locked portion m. I have to. Therefore, even in this case, as in the conventional example of FIG. 4, it is difficult to attach the window glass 1, and it is difficult to set the window glass 1 in the proper position due to various dimensional errors. It is not possible.

[0011]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In view of the defects of the above conventional example, the present invention has a second clip fixed to the edge of the window opening, and the second clip has the first clip fixed to the outer peripheral edge of the window glass. At the time of locking, the first locking bullet piece of the first clip is extended so as to be elastically contactable with the bent portion at the edge of the window opening, so that when attaching the window glass, 1 The free end of the locking piece is elastically supported by the bent portion, and by pressing the wind glass from this state, the first locking piece gradually bends, Finally, the first locking part can be locked to the second locking part of the second locking bullet piece, thus eliminating the need for a work aid as described above and requiring skill for the work. The first purpose is not to do so.

Further, according to the present invention, as described above, by sufficiently increasing the deformation margin from the normal state to the compressed state with respect to the first locking bullet piece, as described above, the window opening edge portion and the window glass size. Secondly, the second purpose is to absorb the unevenness and to make the opening of the wind glass uniform over the entire circumference. The hook portion of the wind molding is also locked to the highly accurate second clip, so that the mounting strength is increased and the mounting strength is increased.

Further, in order to improve the mounting accuracy, the locked portion of the second clip, which locks the first locking portion of the first locking bullet piece, is located closer to the bent portion of the window opening edge. Since the locking surface is provided and is formed substantially parallel to the bent portion, the locking surface serves as an immovable reference, which is related to the uniformization of the entire opening. , So that it can play an effective role.

[0014]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention secures a required number of first clips at predetermined positions on the outer peripheral edge of the windshield and at the window opening edge of the vehicle body, A required number of second clips are fixed to corresponding predetermined locations, and the outer peripheral edge of the window glass and the window opening edge are adhered with a sealant, and the first clip has the window opening edge. A first engaging portion formed on a first engaging bullet piece extending by a length elastically contactable with the bent portion of the second clip is located near the bent portion of the second clip, The second locking portion of the second locking bullet piece formed on the second clip straddles the window glass and the window opening edge while being locked to the locked portion having a locking surface substantially parallel to Of the automobile that is characterized in that the hook part of the installed wind molding is locked. It is intended to provide the Indian glass mounting device.

[0015]

[Action]

 A plurality of first clips are fixed at predetermined positions on the outer peripheral edge of the windshield, and the first clips are fixed at predetermined positions at the window opening edge of the vehicle body in correspondence with the fixed positions of the first clips. , A plurality of second clips are fixed. When the window glass is placed on the edge of the window opening, the free end, which is the first engaging portion of the first engaging bullet piece in the first clip, is received by the bent portion of the edge of the window opening. Accepted.

When the window glass is pushed in from the above state, the first locking portion abuts and slides on the bent portion, the first locking bullet increases the degree of bending, and the pushing-in is further advanced, Finally, since the first locking portion of the first locking bullet piece is locked by the locked portion of the second clip, it is not necessary to use an auxiliary tool during such work.

Since the first locking portion is formed with a locking surface that is substantially parallel to the slope of the bent portion, the locking surface does not change unintentionally and can be used as a reference. As a result, the opening tends to be made uniform over the entire circumference of the wind glass. Further, as described above, since the first locking bullet has a considerable deformation allowance, even if the dimensions of the window glass and the window opening edge portion vary depending on the vehicle body, they are absorbed. The opening can be made uniform over the entire circumference of the wind glass.

Further, since the hook portion of the wind molding is also locked to the second locking portion of the second locking bullet piece also provided on the second clip, the same second clip as the windshield is used as a reference. It will be positioned, and this will allow it to be mounted in a predetermined position with high accuracy.

 The present invention will be described in detail with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawings. It is located at an outer peripheral edge portion 10a of a window glass 10 and has a first clip 11 fixed to a predetermined position by a required number and a window opening edge portion 12 in a vehicle body. Thus, the second clip 13 fixed to a predetermined position corresponding to the first clip 11 by a required number is used.

Here, as can be understood from FIGS. 1A and 1C, the first clip 11 has a prismatic fixing portion 11a having a U-shaped side end surface and a lower end thereof. It is composed of a pair of left and right first locking bullets 11c and 11c bent and extended to have a U-shape from the corner 11b, and the free ends thereof have the first locking portions 11d and 11d. Although the first clip 11 is not provided, when the window glass 10 is attached, the first locking portions 11d and 11d are long enough to be elastically contacted with the bent portion 12c of the window opening edge portion 12. The curved bottom portion 11e of the first locking bullet pieces 11c, 11c is disposed below the lower surface of the fixing portion 11a. To attach this to the window glass 10, the outer peripheral edge portion 10a of the window glass 10 is fitted into the groove 11f formed in the fixing portion 11a. It is preferable to fix the fitted state with an adhesive tape 14 or an adhesive.

Next, the second clip 13 will be explained. As shown in FIGS. 1B, 1C and 1D, a laterally long attachment having a side end surface formed in a substantially J-shape. It comprises a working portion 13a and locked portions 13b and 13b which are provided in the longitudinal direction and project from the upper end portions on both the left and right sides to the front surface side. Locking surfaces 13b 'and 13b' are formed in substantially parallel with the curved portion 12c, and further, from the lower end of the center in the longitudinal direction, the locking surfaces 13b 'and 13b' are extended in parallel from the mounting portion 13a. The two locking bullet pieces 13c are erected, and the second locking portion 13d is formed inside the tip thereof. Reference numeral 13e in the figure denotes a double-sided adhesive tape adhered to the back side of the mounting portion 13a. In the illustrated example, this double-sided adhesive tape 13e is located at the window opening edge portion 12 and is attached to the opening portion 12a. The second clip 13 is attached to the window opening edge portion 12 as described above by adhering it to the base side of the bent portion 12c bent from 12b.

Therefore, the window glass 10 is attached to the window opening edge portion 12 so that the opening portion 12a is shielded. At this time, as is known, the window glass 10 and the outer peripheral edge portion 10a are attached. When the sealant 15 is arranged between the mounting portion 12b and the window glass 10 is applied to the window opening edge portion 12, the first locking bullet piece of the first clip 11 attached to the window glass 10 is attached. 11c and 11c are elastically received by the bent portion 12c of the window opening edge portion 12, and further, when the window glass 10 is pressed, the first locking portions 11d and 11d slide on the bent portion 12c. Finally, the first locking portions 11d, 11d are finally locked by the locked portions 13b, 13b of the second clip 13 fixed to the bent portion 12c.

Further, as is also known, a wind molding 16 is provided between the outer peripheral edge portion 10a of the window glass 10 and the bent portion 12c of the window opening edge portion 12 or the rising portion 12d bent from this. In the present invention, the hook portion 16b of the third clip 16a fixed to the wind molding 16 is attached to the second clip 13 of the second clip 13c. The stopper 13d is locked as shown in FIG. As a result, the window glass 10 and the window molding 16 are attached to the second clip 13 in the positioning state as designed. Although the wind molding 16 and the third clip 16a are formed as separate parts in the above embodiment, they may be integrated.

[Effect of device]

 Since the present invention is configured as described above, if the first clip and the second clip are respectively adhered to the wind glass and the predetermined positions of the window opening edge, the work of attaching the wind glass can be performed. In this case, first, since the first locking bullet piece of the first clip is supported on the edge of the first window opening, it is not necessary to separately support a heavy wind glass with an auxiliary tool, and the wind glass is pushed in. The first clip can be locked to the locked projection of the second clip only by moving. In addition, at this time, since the first locking bullet piece of the first clip is long and is elastically formed, even if the dimensions of the window glass or the window opening edge portion vary depending on the vehicle body, This can be absorbed and therefore the window glass can be attached to the edge of the window opening evenly with a uniform opening. Further, at this time, since the locked portion of the second clip is formed with the locking surface parallel to the bent portion, the opening is determined on the basis of this and the accuracy is improved. be able to. Moreover, by locking the hook portion of the wind molding to the second locking bullet piece of the second clip, the wind molding is also positioned, so that the accuracy as a whole is improved.
