Further, the lower right end (end) 44 b of the solid seal 44 extends from the lower end 52 b of the right leg 52 to the right upper portion 38 c of the cover panel 38. Therefore, the lower right end 44 b of the solid seal 44 is provided on the inner side in the vehicle width direction of the upper right end 43 b of the liquid seal 43. In other words, the upper right end portion 43 b of the liquid seal 43 is applied to the right leg portion 52 side rather than the right lower end portion 44 b of the solid seal 44.
As a result, the right lower end 44b of the solid seal 44 and the upper right end 43b of the liquid seal 43 are overlapped in the vehicle width direction (that is, the direction intersecting the extending direction of the right lower end 44b and the upper right end 43b). Yes.

As shown in FIG. 11, the left lower end 44a of the solid seal 44 and the left upper end 43a of the liquid seal 43 are overlapped in the vehicle width direction, whereby the general surface 46 of the vehicle body panel 31 and the left seal portion of the cover panel 38 are overlapped. The sealing property (sealability) between 57 is improved.
Similarly, the right lower end 44b of the solid seal 44 and the upper right end 43b (see FIG. 9) of the liquid seal 43 are overlapped in the vehicle width direction, so that the general surface 46 of the vehicle body panel 31 and the right seal of the cover panel 38 are overlapped. The sealing property (sealability) between the portions 57 is enhanced.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 9, the window glass 35 is supported by the left leg 51 and the right leg 52 of the sash 34 so as to be movable up and down. By raising the window glass 35 along the sash 34, the window opening 47 (see FIG. 8) is covered with the window glass 35.

A storage space 71 is formed below the window opening 47, and a bottom portion 71 a of the storage space 71 is formed at the center of the bottom portion 56 c of the bulging portion 56. Therefore, the pair of insertion holes 61 of the bulging portion 56 are disposed above the bottom portion 71 a of the storage space 71.

The drive mechanism 22 of the lifting device 21 is stored in the center of the storage space 71 in the vehicle width direction. Further, the window space 35 that is lowered from the sash 34 is stored in the storage space 71.
The storage space 71 is suppressed to a shape in which the window glass 35 can be stored. Therefore, the shape of the storage space 71 can be determined according to the window glass 35, and it is not necessary to make the storage space 71 larger than necessary.

In other words, the width dimension, the height dimension, the projecting dimension toward the passenger compartment 11, and the like of the cover panel 38 can be determined according to the window glass 35. Therefore, it is not necessary to enlarge the cover panel 38 more than necessary, and the shape of the cover panel 38 can be kept small.
Thereby, it can suppress suitably that the cover panel 38 enlarges.

  In addition, the operating portion 23 is provided outside the cover panel 38. Therefore, it is not necessary to store the operating part 23 in the storage space 71. Thereby, the shape of the cover panel 38 can be made as small as possible within the range in which the window glass 35 can be accommodated, and in particular, the extension of the cover panel 38 to the vehicle compartment 11 side can be more suitably suppressed.

  The elevating device 21 includes a drive mechanism 22 that raises and lowers the window glass 35 in a direction to open and close the window opening 47 and an operation unit 23 that operates the drive mechanism 22. The drive mechanism 22 is stored in the center of the storage space 71 in the vehicle width direction, and the operating unit 23 is disposed outside the storage space 71.

  As shown in FIGS. 9 and 12, the drive mechanism 22 includes a slider guide 73 attached substantially vertically to the center of the bulging portion 56 in the vehicle width direction, and a slider 74 supported by the slider guide 73 so as to be movable up and down.

A part 77 a of the drive wire 77 extends from the storage space 71 to the operation part 23 and is connected to the drive motor 81 of the operation part 23.

A pair of glass holders 79 is attached to the slider 74, and a lower center portion 35 a of the window glass 35 is attached to each glass holder 79. The slider 74 is connected to the ascending wire portion 77 b and the descending wire portion 77 c of the drive wire 77.
Specifically, the ascending wire portion 77 b and the descending wire portion 77 c are extended from the lower wire guide 76 along the slider guide 73 in the ascending / descending direction of the window glass 35 (arrow A direction). The extended descending wire portion 77 c is connected to the slider 74. The extended rising wire portion 77 b is connected to the slider 74 via the upper wire guide 75.

The ascending wire portion 77 b and the descending wire portion 77 c are inserted into the insertion hole 61 via the grommet 62 through the lower wire guide 76. A lower wire guide 76 is disposed below the pair of insertion holes 61.
Therefore, the ascending wire portion 77b and the descending wire portion 77c extend from the lower wire guide 76 toward the insertion hole 61 in a direction different from the arrow A direction (arrow B direction). The ascending wire portion 77 b and the descending wire portion 77 c are inserted into the insertion hole 61 via the grommet 62, extended to the outside of the cover panel 38 (that is, outside the storage space 71), and connected to the drive motor 81. .

Here, the pair of insertion holes 61 are provided above the bottom portion 71 a of the storage space 71. Therefore, for example, water that has entered the storage space 71 when the drive mechanism 22 moves up and down the window glass 35 can be prevented from entering the compartment 11 (see FIG. 4) through the pair of insertion holes 61.
In addition, a drain hole 63 is formed in the bottom 71a of the storage space 71 (that is, the vehicle body panel 31). Therefore, the water that has entered the storage space 71 is discharged to the outside of the storage space 71 through the drain hole 63. Thereby, the water that has entered the storage space 71 can be more preferably prevented from being positioned above the pair of insertion holes 61.

Further, a pair of insertion holes 61 are provided above the lower wire guide 76. Therefore, the ascending wire portion 77b and the descending wire portion 77c extending along the ascending / descending direction of the window glass 35 are routed from the lower wire guide 76 toward the pair of insertion holes 61 in an upward gradient in the arrow B direction. Yes.
Thereby, the water that has flowed to the lower wire guide 76 through the ascending wire portion 77b and the descending wire portion 77c flows from the lower wire guide 76 to the pair of insertion holes 61 through the ascending wire portion 77b and the descending wire portion 77c. It is prevented.

  The drive wire 77 is connected to the drive motor 81 of the operating unit 23. The operating part 23 is provided outside the storage space 71 (that is, outside the cover panel 38). The operating unit 23 includes a drive motor 81 to which the drive wire 77 is coupled, and a motor bracket 82 that attaches the drive motor 81 to the right recess 49 (see FIG. 6).

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 6, the motor bracket 82 is attached to the bottom 49 a of the right recess 49 together with the drive motor 81 with a plurality of bolts 84 and nuts 85. As a result, the drive motor 81 is supported by the motor bracket 82 in a state of being housed in the right recess 49.
Here, the right concave portion 49 is disposed behind the driver seat 13 in the vehicle body. Therefore, the drive motor 81 housed in the right recess 49 is provided behind the driver seat 13 in the vehicle body.

A driver seat 13 and a passenger seat 14 are provided at intervals in the vehicle width direction. Further, an operating portion 23 (that is, a drive motor 81) is provided at the rear of the driver seat 13 and the passenger seat 14 in the vehicle body.
Therefore, the drive motor 81 can be arranged so as not to protrude into the central space 26 (see FIG. 1) between the driver seat 13 and the passenger seat 14. Thereby, the central space 26 between the driver seat 13 and the passenger seat 14 can be effectively used for luggage storage or the like.

Furthermore, by storing the drive motor 81 in the right recess 49, the drive motor 81 can be prevented from projecting forward from the general surface 46 of the vehicle body panel 31. Therefore, a relatively large gap (clearance) 86 between the drive motor 81 and the driver seat 13 can be secured.
As a result, the driver seat 13 and the passenger seat 14 can be disposed close to the vehicle body panel 31 side, so that the interior space of the vehicle compartment 11 can be secured satisfactorily.

Further, in a state where the drive motor 81 is housed in the right recessed portion 49, the drive motor 81 is covered from the front side of the vehicle body by the cover portion 83 of the motor bracket 82. Therefore, the interior member 16 that covers the right recess 49 can be supported by the cover 83 of the motor bracket 82 in a state in which the right recess 49 is covered with the interior member 16 such as a nonwoven fabric having flexibility.
Thereby, it is possible to prevent the occupant or luggage in the passenger compartment 11 from coming into contact with the drive motor 81 with the cover portion 83 of the motor bracket 82 and to protect the drive motor 81 with the motor bracket 82.
