Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a corner piece cover that is attached to cover a door glass corner piece of an automobile to decorate the door glass corner part.

Among automobile doors, particularly in the case of a front door, a corner piece 2 having a substantially triangular side surface is attached to a corner C formed by the front side part of the upper sash 1 and the door waist part W, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3. something is known. (Refer to US Pat. No. 4,200,327) By adding this corner piece 2,
The front end of the door glass can be formed smaller by the size of the two corner pieces, making it possible to advantageously cut out the door glass.Furthermore, the front lower sash 3 can be set rearward than the front end of the door 4, and the lower sash 3 and There is an advantage that the problem of interference with the fixing member of the door hinge (not shown) attached to the front end of the door can be solved, and the degree of freedom in the layout of the door hinge and lower sash 3 can be increased.

Also, like this, door glass corner piece 2
When the corner piece cover 5 is attached, the door glass corner piece 2 is enclosed and a corner piece cover 5 is attached, as shown in the figure, in order to decorate the corner part and improve the appearance. This corner piece cover 5 is installed by locking the flange 6 on the upper edge to the groove edge of the glass run fitting groove of the upper part sash 1 and positioning it, and then hooking it to the rear edge of the door glass corner piece 2. .

By the way, when this corner piece cover 5 is attached, the waist molding 9 attached to the door waist portion W is attached to a portion corresponding to the lower side of the corner piece cover 5, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. A notch 12 extending from the vertical wall 10 to the upper surface 11 is formed, and an end cap 13 is fitted to the edge of the notch so that the end cap 13 comes into contact with the lower end of the side wall of the corner piece cover 5 on the outside of the vehicle. There is.

However, when the notch 12 is provided in the waist molding 9 in this way, the vertical wall 10 of the waist molding 9 is clipped to the waist opening edge flange 14 at a plurality of locations (not shown). Since the vertical wall 10 is missing at the front end portion where the waist molding 9 is formed, support is insufficient, resulting in a problem that the front end portion of the waist molding 9 floats up.

In view of the conventional situation, the present invention provides a lip for pressing the waist molding on the lower edge of the side wall on the outside of the vehicle of the corner piece cover, so that the lip prevents the waist molding from floating when the corner piece cover is installed. This is what I did.

Hereinafter, the embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings, in which the same parts as in the conventional structure are denoted by the same reference numerals.

That is, in the present invention, as illustrated in FIGS. 4 to 6, the door glass corner piece 2 fixed to the corner C formed by the front side part of the upper sash 1 and the door waist part W is enclosed and attached. A lip 8 for pressing a waist molding 9 attached to a door waist part W is integrally formed on the lower edge of the side wall of the corner piece cover 5 on the outside of the vehicle, which has a triangular side surface. In this embodiment, the waist molding 9 has a notch 12A extending from the vertical wall 10 to the upper surface 11 only at a portion corresponding to the channel portion 5a that protrudes from the rear lower end of the corner piece cover 5 and communicates with the lower sash 3.
This shows the first,
The conventional waist molding 11 shown in FIG. 2 may be used.

With the above configuration, when the corner piece cover 5 is attached, the lip 8 on the lower edge of the side wall on the outside of the vehicle presses down the upper surface of the front end of the waist molding 9, so that floating at the front end of the waist molding 9 is prevented. This has the practical effect of avoiding deterioration of the appearance and of not degrading the sense of quality. In the above embodiment, both the door glass corner piece 2 and the corner piece cover 5 are of a two-piece type, but it goes without saying that they can also be integrally molded.
