In this conventional window structure, the vehicle body and the windshield (rear gate) are connected by a hinge member that extends downward, and a water guide ring is provided along the satush provided at the upper end of the windshield (rear gate). Water guide channels communicating with the water guide ring were provided on both sides of the hinge member, and water guide grooves were provided in the vehicle body so that rainwater could flow from the guide channels.

Therefore, when the windshield (rear gate) is opened by turning the windshield (rear gate) far beyond the horizontal direction during rainy weather, rainwater from the windshield flows downward through the windshield, collects in the water guide ring, and is then guided to the water channel. The rainwater ran down into the water guide groove on the car body side, and the rainwater was discharged outside the car through the water guide groove.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, in such a conventional vehicle window structure, when the windshield is opened, the center of rotation of the windshield moves upward away from the windshield. Due to this position, a gap is created between the support portion side end of the windshield and the vehicle body, and there is a problem in that rainwater falls into the vehicle interior through the gap.

In addition, three parts are required for water conduction: a water guide base on the windshield side, a water guide groove on the car body side, and a water guide channel between the water guide base and the water guide groove, and the number of parts is large, making it difficult to manufacture. There was also the problem that it was time consuming and costly.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention has been made for the purpose of solving the above-mentioned problems, and to achieve this purpose, the present invention has the following features:
A window opening is formed in the vehicle body, a windshield is provided in the window opening so that it can be opened and closed by rotating around an upper end support, and a weather strip is provided on the upper end of the windshield. In a vehicle window structure in which a water collection groove is formed on the outer surface of the glass vehicle of the strip to collect rainwater when the windshield is rotated more than horizontally, the weather strip at least rotates when the windshield is opened. The weather strip has an extension portion that comes into contact with the vehicle body when the vehicle is moved, and a drainage portion is formed at at least one end of the water collection groove to drain water accumulated in the water collection groove.

The drainage portion is arranged at a position outside the window opening when the window glass is open.

(Function) Therefore, in the vehicle window structure of the present invention, the weather strip has an extension part that comes into contact with the vehicle body, so that when the windshield is opened by rotating upward by the upper end support part. The gap between the windshield and the vehicle body can be closed with an extension of the weather strip.

In addition, the drainage part of the water collection groove is located outside the window opening when the windshield is open, so that when the windshield is turned wide open, water that accumulates in the water collection groove can be removed. To reliably discharge the air outside the vehicle without entering the vehicle through a window opening.

(Example) Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

In describing this embodiment, a side window of an automobile will be taken as an example.

First, the structure of the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 will be explained.

The outside handle 27 operates the lock device 26 by a lock release operation to remove the striker 25 from the lock device 26 and release the lock. It is located at the front end and provided inside the outer panel 12.

The weather strip 30 prevents rainwater from entering the window opening 10.
As shown in FIG. 2, the weather strip 30 is fixed to the upper end of the windshield 20 and extends in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 100. It is made of stretchable material.

Further, the weather strip 30 has a water collection groove 40 and an extension portion 50 formed therein.

The water collection groove 40 allows water to flow downward on the windshield 20 when the windshield 20 is opened by rotating the windshield 20 more than horizontally with water attached to the windshield 20 during rainy weather or the like. This prevents the weather stripping from running over the weather strip 30 and falling into the vehicle interior, and also protects the windshield 20.
This water collection groove 40 is for smooth drainage from above.
is formed on the vehicle exterior side of the weather strip 30, and curves so that water in the water collection groove 40 flows toward both ends when the windshield 20 is opened from a horizontal position. Drain ports 41 and 41 are formed at both ends of the vehicle body 100 in the front-rear direction.

The drain port 41.41 is for draining water such as rainwater accumulated in the water collection groove 40. When the window glass 20 is open, the window opening 1
0 in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body 100.

In addition, in the vicinity of the drain port 41 of the weather strip 30, a frame portion 42.
42 is formed.

The frame portions 42, 42 are arranged on the upper end side of the windshield 20 so that the water on the windshield 20 does not collect in the water collection groove 40 and directly flows down from both sides of the upper end into the vehicle interior. A water collection groove 40 collects water flowing into the
It is intended to lead to.

The extension part 50 is for closing the gap between the windshield 20 and the vehicle body 100 that occurs when the windshield 20 is opened. It is formed in such a length that it is in constant contact with the vehicle body 100, and is in contact with the vehicle body 100 below the roof drip 70.

Also, the water accumulated in the extension part 50 is drained from both ends, or the positions of these ends are also arranged outside the window opening 10 when the windshield 20 is open, similar to the drain ports 41, 41. has been done.

In addition, 60 in the figure is a weather strip on the vehicle body side, which prevents dust, rainwater, etc. from entering the vehicle interior when the windshield 20 is closed. is fixed to.

Further, the roof drip 70 is for draining rainwater etc. that flows down along the roof panel 80 to the front and rear of the vehicle body 100. It is welded and fixed to the lower end of the roof panel 80 and the outer panel 12, and is bent into a substantially U-shape.

Next, the operation of the embodiment will be explained.・First
As shown by the solid line in the figure, when the normal windshield 20 is closed, most of the extension 50 of the weather strip 30 comes into contact with the outer panel 12 of the vehicle body 10, and the peripheral edge of the back surface of the windshield 20 By bringing the weather strip 60 into contact with the vehicle interior, it is possible to prevent dust, rainwater, etc. from entering the vehicle interior.

Furthermore, when the window opening 10 is open, the weather strip 30 leaves the window opening 10 along with the upper end of the window glass 20, as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG.
The distal end portion of the extension portion 50 remains in contact with the vehicle body 100 and does not separate, and the extension portion 50 closes the gap between the upper end of the windshield 30 and the vehicle body 100.

In this way, the extension portion 50 of the weather strip 30 causes the window glass 20 to be formed at a position above the window opening IO.
Since the gap between the vehicle body 100 and the vehicle body 100 is closed from above,
Even if the window opening 10 is opened during rain, rain will not fall from above, and both ends of the extension 50 are connected to the window opening l.
Rainwater that falls on the extension part 50 is drained from both ends without flowing into the vehicle interior through the window opening lO.

Further, when the windshield 20 is rotated upward when water is attached to the windshield 20 or when it is raining, the water on the windshield 20 flows toward the water collection groove 40 and is collected.

However, since the water collecting groove 40 is formed so that the wood flows toward the drain ports 41 at both ends, the wood collected in the water collecting groove 40 flows to the drain port 41 and is drained from the drain port 41.

At that time, as shown in FIG.
Since it is disposed outward from the window opening IO, the drained water does not flow into the vehicle interior through the window opening IO.

Further, both upper end sides of the window glass 20 are located above the window opening 10 in the open state as shown in FIG.
Because of this formation, water will not flow down from there into the window opening IO.

Next, a second embodiment shown in FIG. 4 will be described.

In describing the second embodiment, the same components as those in the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the explanation thereof will be omitted. Furthermore, regarding one action, the explanation of the same action as in the first embodiment will be omitted.

This second embodiment includes a hinge 200 and a window glass 20.
This is an example in which a rubber sheet 3.OO is provided between.

The rubber sheet 300 is for preventing the windshield 20 from being damaged by the hinge 200, and the rubber sheet 300 is provided with an upper end in contact with the water collection groove 40, and a A communication hole 310 is opened.

Therefore, as shown by the imaginary line in FIG. 4, rainwater collected in the water collection groove 40 can flow along the water collection groove 40 through the communication hole 310.

Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described above in detail with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to this embodiment, and the present invention may be modified without departing from the gist of the present invention. included.

In the embodiment, the window structure was implemented on the side of the vehicle body, but it may be provided at other locations such as the rear surface of the vehicle body.

Furthermore, as long as the drainage part is placed outside the window opening, it may take any shape rather than a drainage outlet, such as a drainage slope. Although it is formed at both ends, it may be formed only at either end.

Additionally, grooves may be formed in the extension to improve the flow of the wood.

Further, when a member of the upper end support portion such as a hinge closes the water collection groove, a communication hole or the like may be formed in the member.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, in the vehicle window structure of the present invention, the gap between the windshield and the vehicle body that is created when the windshield is opened can be closed by the extension of the weather strip. This has the effect of preventing rainwater from dripping into the vehicle interior through the gaps when the windshield is opened.

In addition, the drainage parts at both ends of the water collection groove formed in the weather strip are located outside the window opening when the windshield is open, making it possible to rotate the windshield far more than horizontally during rainy weather. The window opening 10 drains rainwater, etc. that flows downward on the window glass and collects in the water collection groove when the window is opened.
This has the effect of ensuring that the water does not enter the vehicle interior, and that the water is reliably drained outside the vehicle interior.

Further, since only one weatherstrip needs to be used, the number of parts is reduced, and the manufacturing effort and cost can be reduced.

In addition to the above-mentioned effects, in the first embodiment, the frame portions are provided along both sides of the upper end of the window glass, so that even if the window is wider at the bottom, the window glass It is possible to prevent rainwater from flowing down from both sides of the upper end and entering the vehicle interior.
