FIG. 1 is a view showing a mounting structure 1 of a vehicle-mounted window which is a side window of a bus delivered from a parts maker to an automobile factory. The mounting structure 1 of the on-board window is delivered to an automobile factory in a state of being mounted on the sliding glass 7a, 7b, the fixed glass 8 and the sash 3. The sash 3 is formed of a pair of upper and lower horizontal frames 3a and 3b and a pair of vertical frames 3c and 3d disposed on the left and right. The horizontal frames 3a and 3b and the vertical frames 3c and 3d are each formed by extrusion of an aluminum alloy, and the cross section is common in the length range unless they are processed by cutting later, for example.

The sash 3 is provided with rails (3e, 3f in FIG. 3) for housing glass runs, and a pair of sliding glasses 7a, 7b which can slide laterally between the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b are arranged. ing. At least one of the pair of sliding glasses 7a and 7b can be opened and closed by sliding left and right. The fixed glass 8 is adhered to the horizontal frame 3b as described later. The sliding glasses 7a and 7b do not necessarily have to be mounted when they are delivered from the parts manufacturer to the automobile factory. For example, the sliding glass 7a can be obtained using the technology disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3193682. , 7b can also be attached later. In addition to inorganic glass, organic glass such as polycarbonate may be used as the fixed glass for weight reduction.

The jigs 4 and 5 for maintaining the positional relationship between the fixed glass 8 and the sash are attached. The jigs 4 and 5 are arranged such that the rod-shaped main body 10 having a rectangular cross section is orthogonal to the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b, and at positions corresponding to the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b, respectively. Fingers 11 and 12 attached from one side (upper side) to contact the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b, and a support plate 16 to contact from the other side (lower side) of the horizontal frame 3b to which the fixed glass 8 is bonded. The jigs 4 and 5 are fixed to the sash 3 by sandwiching the sash 3 from above and below with the finger portions 11 and 12 and the support plate 16. The jigs 4 and 5 are further extended (in the downward direction in the drawing) from the horizontal frame 3b to which the fixed glass 8 is bonded, and a suction lifter 13 for vacuum suction to the fixed glass 8 is provided at the end. The jig 5 has the same configuration except that it is symmetrical with respect to the jig 4.

FIG. 2 shows the left jig 4 as a representative of the two jigs in FIG. The rod-shaped main body 10 has finger portions 11 and 12 at the lower side with an interval from one end (upper side in the figure, hereinafter upper and lower represents the position in the figure in the figure) point 10a. Each finger 11, 12 vertically protrudes from the main body, and each finger 11, 12 further includes a hook 14, 15 protruding downward from the protruding tip. On the lower side of the finger portion 12, a support plate 16 capable of adjusting the relative distance between the finger portions 11 and 12 is provided. A pad 17 made of an elastic material is attached to the surface of the support plate 16 facing the finger portion 12. The support plate 16 is fixed to the slider mechanism 18.

The slider mechanism 18 slides around the main body portion 10 by an outer ring of the main body portion 10. Other configurations may be used as long as the support plate 16 is moved in the longitudinal direction of the main body 10 while maintaining the horizontal attitude of the support plate 16. By rotating the knob 19 screwed on the rod screw 20 extended from the finger 12, the slider mechanism 18 can be moved closer to or away from the fingers 11 and 12. As a result, the pair of upper and lower horizontal frames 3 a and 3 b can be detachably grasped by the finger portions 11 and 12 and the support plate 16. A suction lifter 13 is fixed to the other end (lower side in the drawing) of the main body portion 10. The suction lifter 13 operates the suction and release of the surface of the fixed glass 8 by the lever 21.

FIG. 3 shows how the jig 4 and the fixed glass 8 are attached to the horizontal frame 3 a and the horizontal frame 3 b of the sash 3. After assembling the sash 3 by the horizontal frame 3a, the horizontal frame 3b, and the vertical frames 3c, 3d, the jig 4 (and the jig 5 not shown) is attached. The distance between the finger portion 11 and the finger portion 12 of the jig 4 matches the distance between the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b. The hooks of the fingers are hooked on hooks 30 and 31 of the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b. The hooking portion may substitute a part of the rails 3e and 3f in the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b. The knob is rotated to adjust the relative distance between the finger and the support plate, and the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b are held.

The mounting surface 32 which adheres the fixed glass 8 is provided in one horizontal frame 3b among horizontal frame 3a, 3b. The plate-like rubber band 33 is adhered to the mounting surface 32 with a double-sided tape, and the double-sided tape is further adhered to the surface of the plate-like rubber band. The liquid adhesive 34 is applied to the side of the horizontal frame 3 a (on the right side of the plate-like rubber band 33 in the drawing) on the mounting surface 32. When sticking the fixed glass 8, it is for making it not flow out on the left side.

One side 8 a of the fixed glass 8 is positioned on the mounting surface 32 and adhered. Positioning temporary fixing is performed using the double-sided tape of the plate-like rubber band 33, and thereafter, the liquid adhesive 34 can be cured to obtain use strength. On the other hand, the other side 8 b of the fixed glass 8 is mounted on the suction surface of the suction lifter 13, and the fixed glass 8 is adsorbed by the lever 21. The sliding glasses 7a and 7b are mounted in the rails 3e and 3f of the sash 3 as necessary.

In FIG. 4, on the vehicle drive of the bus, mounting surfaces 41 and 42 of the on-board window are provided around the opening P on which the mounting structure 1 of the on-board window is mounted. The plate-like rubber bands 43 and 44 are adhered to the mounting surfaces 41 and 42, and a double-sided tape is attached to the surfaces of the plate-like rubber bands 43 and 44. Furthermore, liquid adhesives 45 and 46 are respectively applied to the side opposite to the opening P side with the plate-like rubber bands 43 and 44 interposed therebetween.

The mounting structure 1 of the vehicle-mounted window supplied from the parts maker is prepared, and the sash 3 and the fixed glass 8 are positioned and bonded to the mounting surfaces 41 and 42 around the opening P. At this time, the standard surface M of the lower end 10b of the jig 4 (and the jig 5 not shown) is placed on and brought into contact with the vehicle drive of the bus, and the position of the standard surface M is the vehicle drive of the bus. By appropriately setting in relation, the mounting position in the vertical direction of the vehicle-mounted window can be regulated, and the efficiency of the mounting operation can be improved.

After the liquid adhesives 45 and 46 are cured, the lever 21 of the suction lifter 13 is operated to release the suction, and the knob 19 is rotated to separate the finger portions 11 and 12 from the support plate 16. By this operation, the jigs 4 and 5 can be separated from the vehicle-mounted window. The jigs 4 and 5 are collected by the parts maker and reused.

According to this embodiment, since the frame member surrounding the fixed glass 8 can be omitted, the vehicle weight of the bus can be reduced, and as a result, the fuel consumption can be improved. In addition, since the fixed glass 8 can be attached to the full opening of the vehicle drive of the bus, visibility is improved. Furthermore, the fixed glass is directly adhered to the vehicle drive of the bus rather than the adhesive disposed on the fixed glass 8, the frame member, and the vehicle drive of the bus, so the number of places requiring sealing performance is reduced. , The quality of the place to be sealed is stabilized.

In the above embodiment, the distance between the finger 11 and the support plate 16 is wider than the distance between the finger 12 and the support plate 16. Therefore, in order to support the rotational moment of the fixed glass 8 applied to the suction lifter 13, the clamping force between the finger portion 11 and the support plate 16 is dominant. The finger 12 may be omitted as long as a sufficient holding force between the finger 11 and the support plate 16 can be secured.

FIG. 5 shows a mounting structure of a vehicle-mounted window using a jig 40 according to another embodiment. The jig 40 is not provided with the hooks 14 and 15 like the jig 4 in the finger parts 11 and 12, and by holding the finger parts 11 and 12 and the support plate 16, the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b It differs in that it is fixed to. Such a configuration is effective when the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b can not be provided with appropriate hooks.

Although the support plate 16 side is moved relative to the finger portions 11 and 12 in the above embodiment, the finger portions 11 and 12 may be moved relative to the support plate 16. Further, if both the finger portions 11 and 12 and the support plate 16 can slide relative to the main body portion 10, the distance between the horizontal frame 3a and the horizontal frame 3b can correspond to various sash 3 Become.

In the above example. Although the structure which attaches the sash 3 and the fixed glass 8 from the inside of the vehicle drive of a bus was shown, the attachment structure shown in FIG. 6 is a structure attached from the outer side of the vehicle drive of a bus.

The jig 400 of the present embodiment has a finger portion 111 at one end of a rod-shaped main body portion 110 and a suction lifter 13 at the other end. Projecting vertically from the main body 111, the finger 111 further includes a hook 114. Between the finger portion 111 and the suction lifter 13, a support plate 115 capable of adjusting the relative distance between the finger portion 111 and the finger portion 111 is provided. The support plate 115 is fixed to the slider mechanism 118.

The slider mechanism 118 slides around the main body portion 110 by circling the main body portion 110. By rotating the knob 119 screwed on the rod screw 120 extended from the base 112, the slider mechanism 118 can be moved closer to or away from the finger portion 111. As a result, by separating the finger portion 11 and the support plate 16, the pair of upper and lower horizontal frames 3 a and 3 b can be detachably grasped from the inside.

In FIG. 6B, the sash 3 and the fixed glass 8 fixed to the jig 400 are positioned and adhered to the mounting surfaces 41 and 42 around the opening P from the outside of the vehicle drive. As it is attached from the outside of the vehicle drive, it becomes easy to remove the jig 400 after the operation.

In the above embodiment, if a shock absorbing material is appropriately attached to the surfaces of the jigs 4, 5, 40, and 400, breakage of the on-vehicle windows is caused when carrying in many on-vehicle windows from the parts manufacturer to the automobile factory. Can also be used as a spacer to prevent
