Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a mounting structure for car body exterior parts, and more particularly to a mounting structure for a molding around a window weather strip.

Generally, around the quarter windows, front windows, and rear windows of automobiles, molding is attached along the outer periphery of a window weather strip that fixes the window glass to decorate the area around the windows.

For example, in the case of a glossy quarter window, the upper side of the window weather strip 2 that fixes the window glass 1 is decorated with drip molding 3, as shown in FIG. I'm trying to decorate it with molding 4.

By the way, when installing these moldings 3 and 4, if the drip channel 5 extends to the upper side of the rear quarter window 1A as shown in FIGS. 3, and for vehicle models where the knob channel 5 does not extend, it can be directly fitted to the vehicle body panel 6 with the clip 7, as shown in FIGS. A portion 3a is formed, and the mounting flange portion 3a is directly attached to the vehicle body panel 6 using a screw grommet 8 and a screw 9.

Also, in the case of the waist molding 4, as shown in FIG. 4, the waist molding 4 is directly fitted onto the vehicle body panel 6 using clips 10.

However, in any of these cases, a gap G is created between the outer peripheral edge of the window weather strip 2 and the edges of the moldings 3 and 4, and the painted surface of the vehicle body panel 6 is exposed through this gap G. The sense of unity between the weather strip 2 and the moldings 3 and 4 is lost, resulting in a poor appearance.

Furthermore, the presence of the gap G increases the width l from the weather strip 2 to the moldings 3 and 4, making it impossible to expand the window opening area and impeding the improvement of visibility.

In view of the conventional situation, the present invention forms a mounting flange part on the molding, and fixes this flange part to the vehicle body panel close to the outer periphery of the window weather strip.
By concealing this flange portion with a lip extending around the outer periphery of the window weather strip, the molding and weather strip can overlap and create a sense of unity between the two. By wrapping with the strip, the total width of both can be narrowed, thereby making it possible to expand the window opening area.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings, in which the same parts as those of the conventional structure are denoted by the same reference numerals.

That is, in the present invention, as illustrated in FIG.
The window weather strip 2 is directly fixed to the vehicle body panel 6 close to the outer peripheral edge thereof.

On the other hand, a lip 11 is extended on the outer peripheral edge of the window weather strip 2 so as to form a cavity 12 at an appropriate interval between the window weather strip 2 and the vehicle body panel 6, and this lip 11 hides the flange portion 3a of the molding 3. However, the head of the screw 9 is arranged to fit into the cavity 12.

Also, in the case of the waist molding 4, as shown in FIG. 6, a mounting flange portion 4a is formed on the molding 4, and this flange portion 4a is attached to a screw grommet 8. The window weather strip 2 is directly fixed to the vehicle body panel 6 in close proximity to the outer periphery of the window weather strip 2 by screws 9, and the flange portion 4a is concealed by a lip 11 extending to the outer periphery of the weather strip 2. The head is housed in a cavity 12.

In addition, a wedge-shaped notch 2b is formed at the edge of the flange fitting groove 2a on the outside of the vehicle of the window weather strip 2, and this notch 2b is filled with a sealant 13 that also serves as an adhesive. 2 and sealing of the vehicle body opening edge flange portion 6a.

The screw 9 of the molding 3.4 can be easily tightened by bending the lip 11 of the weather strip 2 outward and creating a relatively wide work space due to the presence of the cavity 12.

In this way, the flange portions 3 a of the moldings 3 and 4
, 4a are attached to the vehicle body panel close to the outer peripheral edge of the window weather strip 2, and the flange portion 3
By concealing the moldings 3, 4 and 4a with the lip 11 extending to the outer periphery of the window weather strip 2, the adjacent portions of the moldings 3 and 4 and the weather strip 2 overlap, and there is no conventional gap between them. In this way, the painted surface of the vehicle body panel 6 is not exposed, giving a sense of unity and further improving the quality of the exterior appearance.

In addition, since the attachment part of the molding to the vehicle body and the weather strap overlap, the total width l' of the molding 3 or 4 and the weather strip 2 is also narrowed.
It is also possible to expand the window opening area and improve visibility.

In the above embodiment, the structure around the quarter window has been described, but the same effect can be obtained by applying the structure around the front window or rear window.
