DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a windowpane mounting structure in which a windowpane of a vehicle is fixed with an adhesive onto a flange forming a window opening of a body. The present invention relates to a clip used for positioning.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, as a method of mounting a front window glass of a vehicle, there is a method of setting a window glass coated with an adhesive on a back surface of a peripheral portion on a flange forming a window opening of a body and fixing the window glass by bonding. It has been generally adopted conventionally.

[0003] When a window glass is attached by bonding as described above, a clip for temporarily fixing the window glass to temporarily prevent the window glass from floating on the flange on the body side until the adhesive is cured has been developed. 6-321
No. 32 is published.

The above-mentioned conventional clip for temporary fixing is shown in FIG.
As shown in (A), a thin plate-like base portion a to be adhered to the back surface near the upper edge of the window glass, a leg portion b projecting downward from the lower surface of the base portion a, The left and right elastic pieces c, c extending obliquely rearward from both sides and the claw d formed at the tip of each of the elastic pieces c, c are integrally formed of synthetic resin. Then, as shown in FIG. 5B, the base portion a is attached to a predetermined position near the upper edge of the back surface of the window glass e, for example, with a double-sided adhesive tape or the like.
When the adhesive f is applied to the back surface of the peripheral portion of the above, and the window glass e is applied to the flange g forming the window opening of the body,
Claws d, d while elastically deforming the left and right elastic pieces c, c.
Is engaged with the lower side of the edge of the flange g over the edge of the flange g, and holds the window glass e so as not to float on the flange g.

[0005]

For example, windshields, rear windowpanes, and the like are very heavy, and it is difficult to position them when attaching them with an adhesive.
In particular, it is very difficult to adjust the height position of the window glass with respect to the body-side flange in accordance with the variation (corrugation) of the surface of the body-side flange that is the mounting surface of the window glass.

[0006] The above-mentioned conventional clip for temporary fixing includes claw portions d,
When d engages the edge of the flange g, the window glass can be positioned in the vertical direction, but cannot be positioned in the horizontal direction. Further, the height position of the window glass with respect to the body side flange is determined by the dimension from the upper surface of the base portion a to the claw portion d, and the height of the window glass with respect to the flange is adjusted according to the variation of the surface of the body side flange. It is impossible to do this.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a window glass positioning clip which can solve the above-mentioned conventional problems.

[0008]

According to the present invention, a positioning clip is attached to a plate-like base portion adhered to a predetermined position on the back surface of a window glass, and a front end portion is vertically moved by a self-hinge portion on a lower surface of the base portion.

A lower engaging claw portion that engages with the lower end of the edge, and an engaging groove portion that protrudes downward substantially along the rear edge portion of the base portion and that engages with a claw portion formed to protrude at the rear edge of the rotating portion. It is integrally formed of synthetic resin in a structure having a height adjustment When set on the flange on the D side, the pin portion fits into the notch of the flange, the upper engaging portion hits near the corner at the lower end of the rising portion of the flange, and rotates around the self-hinge portion while engaging the upper engaging portion. Portion engages with the rising portion, and the lower engaging claw portion of the pin portion engages with a lower portion of the notch edge of the flange, and the vertical position of the window glass, the horizontal position, and the height of the window glass relative to the flange. The height of the height adjustment portion is controlled by the claw portion at the rear end of the rotating portion.
The setting height of the window glass with respect to the flange can be easily adjusted.

Further, the present invention provides a positioning clip comprising a glass side clip attached to a predetermined position on the back surface of a window glass;
A body-side clip attached to and fixed to the body-side flange, and a pin portion of the glass-side clip is fitted into a socket portion of the body-side clip, and an engaging claw portion of the pin portion is formed on an inner wall surface of the socket portion. And the locking piece provided in the socket part is pressed by the pin part to be elastically deformed rearward, and the locking claw of the locking piece is engaged with the lower edge of the flange. In this manner, the vertical position, the horizontal position, and the height position with respect to the flange of the window glass are regulated, and the engagement claw portion of the pin portion is engaged with any one of the plurality of engagement groove portions of the socket portion. Thereby, the setting height of the window glass with respect to the flange can be easily adjusted.
