Description

[Detailed explanation of the invention] This invention is applied to the structure of the wind molding part of an automobile.
This relates to a structure that ensures the abutment and engagement of the cross molding corner insertion part with the side molding corner, and is particularly designed to prevent misalignment of the inner part of the cross molding corner, and to prevent the generation of gaps with respect to the inner plate. This relates to a wind molding installation part structure in which a bracket having a spring clip designed to prevent the problem is attached to a side molding.

As is well known in the art, so-called wind moldings are attached around the windows of vehicles such as automobiles to hide the windshield glass mounting portion and to provide an aesthetic appearance.

Therefore, during the process of installing the wind molding when assembling the vehicle or reinstalling the windshield glass, it is necessary to engage the curled rim of the molding with the clip attached to the T stud planted on the body panel. It is being done.

While doing so, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, install the side molding 1.
Lower molding 3 as a cross molding for corner 2 of
The insertion and retention part of the corner 4 of the lower molding 3 is lower than a predetermined level by Δh because there is no positioning of the former with respect to the latter.
It had the drawback that it would slide up.

In addition, due to the above-mentioned characteristics of attachment with the clip, the inner side of the side molding 1 tends to open easily, while the upper side of the lower molding 3 tends to close easily, competing with each other. is effective double,
As a result, not only is there a problem that a large gap is generated not only in the corner part but also in the side molding 1, and the raised part also becomes a cause of outward protrusion, which is a disadvantage and is also dangerous. The disadvantage was that it got worse.

The purpose of this invention was to take into consideration the problems encountered during installation due to the structure of the wind molding based on the conventional technology, and to provide a secure position by attaching a bracket to the curl rim of the side molding in advance to provide positioning and anti-lifting functions for the inserted cross molding. The purpose of this invention is to provide an excellent wind molding structure that can be set up and erected.

The structure of this invention in accordance with the above purpose is that a bracket is fixedly attached between both curl rims of the side molding, and the outer curl rim of the corner of the cross molding inserted into the side molding corner is connected to the outer curling rim of the cross molding corner to be inserted into the side molding corner. By engaging the end curl rim as a guide and engaging the inner part of the cross molding with the spring clip of the bracket, displacement of the cross molding in the longitudinal direction of the side molding is prevented and centering is automatically performed;
At the same time, use the other spring clip of the bracket to press the inner plate of the cross molding against the inner surface of the side molding to prevent a gap between the two, and as a result, prevent the side molding from lifting up. This is a summary of what was done.

Next, an embodiment of this invention will be described below based on the drawings from FIG. 3a onwards.

Note that the same structures or parts as in FIGS. 1 and 2 will be described with the same reference numerals.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3a to 9, reference numeral 1 denotes a side molding made of SUS, which is attached to a mounting part of a front windshield glass of an automobile (not shown), and inner curl rims 1 on both sides in the longitudinal direction. ′ is cut at the insertion site,
The outer curl rim 1'' is continuous with the end curl rim 1'' at the lower corner 2.

On the other hand, the upper and lower curl rims 3' and 3'' of the SUS lower molding 3 as a cross molding are cut in front of the corner 4 to the extent that they overlap the side molding 1 somewhat in front of the corner 4, as shown in Fig. 3b. The rear outer curl rim 3'' is shaped so as to overlap the end curl rim 1'' of the side molding 1, and the tip of the upper curl rim 3' is formed into an edge 5 as an inner part, and the inner surface is formed into an inner plate 5. '.

The bracket 6 shown in FIG. 4 is a SUS press or molded product, and has a supporting rim 7 at the upper part that is guided and abuts both curled rims 1' of the side molding 1, and the rim 7' extends downwardly along the outside. A leaf spring-shaped spring clip 8 extends inwardly from the supporting rim 7, while an inwardly bent spring clip 9 extends integrally from the support rim 7.

Incidentally, as shown in FIG. 5, caulking portions 10, 10 for fixing the support rim 7 of the bracket 6 are formed in advance on the portion of the inner curl rim 1' shown in section A of FIG. 3a.

In the above structure, the pre-shaped bracket 6 is attached to both curl rims l/, of the side molding 1 via its support rim 7.
The supporting rim 7 is inserted by sliding it while being guided by the l//, and the support rim 7 is set between the caulked parts 10 and 10 using the mutual spring elasticity, and is fixed as much as possible.

A lower molding 3 is inserted into a corner 2 of the side molding 1 by turning its corner 4 with respect to the set side molding 1.

In the installation process, the former edge 5 is engaged with the inside of the spring clip 9 of the bracket 6 for vertical positioning and automatic centering.
' to insert the guide between the spring clip 8 and the side molding 1.

The spring clip 9 may be engaged with the upper curl rim 3' of the lower molding 3 depending on the design.

Incidentally, in the meantime, both moldings 1 and 3 may be clipped to the body planting stud in an appropriate process.

Further, the embodiment of this invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment; for example, as shown in FIG. The bracket may be designed as desired, and the bracket can be attached as appropriate by spot welding instead of the caulking part, as long as the aesthetics of the design are not impaired.

Furthermore, when installing the body, a lower pad is inserted to prevent damage to the paint film due to contact.

The above-mentioned installation is applicable not only to the front window but also to the rear window, and it goes without saying that the cross molding for the side molding is not limited to the lower molding but can also be applied to the top molding.

As described above, according to this invention, in the construction of the cross molding corner that is inserted into and engaged with the side molding corner, a bracket is installed between both rims of the side molding,
Since the bracket has a spring clip that holds and presses the inner part of the corner of the cross molding and a spring clip that holds and presses the inner plate, when inserting the cross molding, the inner part is held by the corresponding spring clip. It is automatically centered and prevented from sliding up, and the inner plate is accurately positioned and set, and the inner plate is brought into relative elastic contact with the side molding by the corresponding spring clip, which prevents the side molding from lifting up and protruding. This has the excellent effect of avoiding deterioration in appearance.

Further, since the bracket is formed separately from the side molding and can be simply inserted and attached to the side molding, there is an advantage that the conventional side molding can be used as is.

Furthermore, since the bracket can be manufactured in a press-formed manner, it is easy to manufacture and has the secondary advantage of being low cost.
