DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a weather strip mounting device for an automobile door window, and more particularly, to a device for mounting a weather strip on a vehicle door window.
The weather strip can be prevented from coming off due to mischief or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a door for an automobile in which a door window is covered with glass which can be freely moved up and down in a body portion, a weather strip is provided on a flange provided on an upper edge of an inner panel and an outer panel which constitute the body portion. Attach, the weatherstrip is slid into contact with the surface of the glass to provide a seal between the glass and the body. However, conventionally, since the clip of the clip attached to the weather strip was engaged with the hole formed in the flange to attach the weather strip, the clip of the clip was broken when the weather strip was strongly pulled upward. Since the fixing function is lost, the weather strip cannot be prevented from coming off due to mischief or the like.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and provides a mounting device which can prevent a weather strip from being detached due to mischief without deteriorating mounting workability. Is an issue.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention provides a weatherst mounted on a flange formed on an upper edge of an outer panel constituting a body of a door.
One end of the metal core of the lip is inserted into the notch provided at the lower end of the side frame forming the door window together with the body portion from the horizontal direction, and is engaged therewith .
Tighten the vicinity of the other end of the core bar to the flange with a screw
It is characterized by being fixed .

[0005]

[Operation] After inserting one end of the core of the weather strip into the notch provided at the lower end of the side frame from the horizontal direction and engaging with the notch, a screw near the other end of the core is screwed from the vehicle compartment side. Because the weather strip is pulled strongly upward because it is tightened and fixed to the flange with the crown
Also, the core metal does not come off the flange, and the weather strip is securely prevented from coming off due to mischief.

In addition, the weather strip can be prevented from coming off only by inserting one end of the core of the weather strip into a notch provided at the lower end of the side frame and tightening and fixing the vicinity of the other end to the flange with a screw. In addition, the workability of attaching the weather strip does not deteriorate. The intermediate portion of the weather strip is engaged with the flange using a clip or the like in the same manner as in the past, so that the
Deflection of the cored bar can be prevented, and its mounting stability can be increased.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of an automobile door provided with a weather strip mounting device according to the present invention, and FIG.
FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line BB of FIG. 1, and FIG.
C sectional view, FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the outer panel shown in FIG. 1,
FIG. 6 is a sectional view showing a first modification of the weather strip,
FIG. 7 is a sectional view showing a second modification of the weather strip,
FIG. 8 is a sectional view showing a third modification of the weatherstrip,
FIG. 9 is a sectional view showing a modification of the side frame.

In these figures, a door 1 covering an entrance of an automobile includes a body portion 2, a pair of front and rear side frames 3 extending upward from a front end and a rear end of the body portion 2, and a pair of side frames 3. The body part 2, the side frame 3, and the upper frame constitute a door window 4. Then, the glass 5 housed in the body portion 2 so as to be able to move up and down is moved up and down along a glass run 6 attached to the inner side surface of the side frame 3 so that the door window 4 is covered with the glass so as to be able to open and close.

The body part 2 is composed of an outer panel 7 and an inner panel 8.
Flanges 9 and 10 are formed on the upper edge of 8 respectively.
The flanges 9 and 10 form an elevating port for the glass 5, and the weather strips 11 and 12 attached to the flanges 9 and 10 are attached to the glass 5.
The body part 2 and the glass 5
And the seal between them.

A core 13 is provided on the weather strip 11 attached to the flange 10 of the outer panel 7. Then, as shown in FIG. 5, a notch 14 is provided on the extension line of the flange 9 at the lower end of the one side frame 3,
One end of the metal core 13 is inserted into and engaged with the notch 14, and the other end of the metal core 13 is fastened and fixed to the flange 9 with a screw 15 screwed from the vehicle cabin side so that the weather strip 11 is placed on the outer panel 7. It is fixed to the rim.

In the embodiment, the weather strip 11 is used.
By attaching a plurality of clips 16 to the intermediate portion of the
The clip 16 can be omitted when the weather strip 11 has a short overall length and little flexure. Reference numeral 18 denotes a molding for protecting the glass run 6 attached to the inner peripheral surface of the side frame 3, reference numeral 19 denotes a tapping screw for fastening the molding 18 to the side frame 3, and reference numeral 20 denotes a screw grommet.

In the weather strip mounting apparatus constructed as described above, one end of the metal core 13 of the weather strip 11 slidably in contact with the outer surface of the glass 5 is inserted into the notch 14 provided at the lower end of the side frame 3 from the horizontal direction. The other end of the metal core 13 is fastened to the flange 9 by a screw 15 while being inserted and engaged. Therefore, even if a strong upward force is applied to the weather strip 11, the weather strip 11 does not come off the flange 9 of the outer panel 7.

Also, without using a large number of screws, one end of the metal core 13 is inserted into the notch 14 provided in the side frame 3 and the other end is tightened and fixed to the flange 9 with the screw 15 to form the weather strip 11. Since the detachment can be prevented, the workability of attaching the weather strip 11 does not deteriorate. In the case where the claw of the clip 16 attached to the intermediate portion of the weather strip 11 is engaged with the hole 17 provided in the flange 9 as in the embodiment, there is an advantage that the attachment stability of the weather strip 11 can be increased. is there.

In the above embodiment, the entire surface of the metal core 13 curved in a U-shaped cross section along the inner and outer side surfaces of the flange 9 is covered with the same rubber as the lip portion, and the inner side of the metal core 13 is formed in the side frame. 3 and is fastened and fixed to the flange 9 with the screw 15, but as shown in FIG. 6, a weather strip provided with a core 13 of only the inner side along the inner surface of the flange 9 is provided. The lip portion may be provided only at a required portion of the core bar 13 as in the embodiment shown in FIG.

In the above embodiment, the upward flange 9 is provided on the upper edge of the outer panel 7, but the same applies to the case where the downward flange 9 is provided as in the embodiment shown in FIG. The weather strip 11 can be attached by the method described in (1). Further, when the glass run 6 is attached to the inner peripheral surface of the side frame 3 via the frame 21 as in the embodiment shown in FIG. The insertion of the gold 13 can be dealt with. In FIG. 9, reference numeral 22 denotes a door weather strip. Furthermore, in the embodiment, the other end of the core bar 13 is fastened and fixed to the flange 9 by the screw 15, but this fastening position can be moved to an intermediate portion of the core bar 13.

[0016]

As is apparent from the above description, according to the present invention, one end of the core of the weather strip is connected to the body.
At the lower end of the side frame that constitutes the door window
The notch into the notch from the horizontal direction.
And screw the screw around the other end of the cored bar.
Flange provided on the upper edge of the outer panel constituting the D part
Securely secures the weather strip by simply tightening
Therefore , detachment of the weather strip due to mischief or the like can be reliably prevented without deteriorating the mounting workability.
