Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] The present invention relates to a mounting structure for a window molding.
In particular, it relates to a window molding mounting structure that aims to reduce the weight and cost of the molding.

[Conventional technology]

A conventional window molding mounting structure is shown in FIG. In the figure, 10 is a window frame portion formed on the body, 12 is a seal member made of a cushioning material such as sponge or rubber and supports the window glass 14, and 16 is a support member for supporting the end of the window glass 14 together with the seal member 12. The end portion 16A of the molding 16 is formed with the same curvature as the longitudinal direction of the side surface 10A of the window frame portion 10. Further, the molding 16 is molded from resin 20 containing a stainless steel reinforcing member 18 to provide rigidity. Furthermore, 22 connects one end surface 16B of the molding 16 to one surface 14 of the window glass 14.
This is the clip to be pressed by A. A space 24 partitioned by the window glass 14, the sealing member 12, and the molding 16 is filled with an adhesive to fix the window glass 14 to the window frame portion 10.

[The problem that the idea aims to solve]

As mentioned above, in conventional installation of window glass to the window frame, a molding formed to match the shape of the window frame is attached around the window glass using clips or adhesive. ,
In order to provide rigidity so that the molding itself does not deform, it is necessary to make the molding out of stainless steel, or to insert a reinforcing member made of stainless steel into the molding and mold it with resin. Therefore, there are disadvantages in that the weight of the molding increases and the cost also increases. Another drawback is that the shape of the molding must be manufactured with high precision to match the shape of the window frame.

An object of the present invention is to provide a window molding mounting structure that reduces costs by reducing the weight of the molding and reducing manufacturing precision.

[Means to solve the problem]

The feature of the present invention is that a window frame with an L-shaped cross section is formed by a wall surface bent from the outside of the vehicle body to the inside of the vehicle body and a flange extending from the wall surface toward the window opening on the side edge of the window opening of the vehicle body. A portion of the window frame portion extending in the vehicle width direction is curved with a constant curvature so that the central portion thereof protrudes outside the vehicle body, and the window glass is attached to the flange via an adhesive. is arranged,
Further, a molding having a substantially flat cross section is extended along the side edge of the window opening, and the molding is fixed to the window frame with a clip, so that the outer peripheral side edge of the window glass and the wall surface are fixed. In a mounting structure for a window molding that covers a space between The side edge of the molding on the window glass side is brought into close contact with the outer surface of the window glass by pressing the side edge of the molding on the wall surface side to a predetermined part of the wall surface that is farther from the flange than the outer surface of the window glass. At the point.

[Effect]

According to the above configuration, the side edge of the molding on the window glass side is brought into contact with the window glass, and the side edge of the molding on the wall side of the window frame portion is placed at a predetermined position on the wall surface that is further away from the flange than the outer surface of the window glass. When pressed at a position (closer to the outside of the car body than the outside surface of the window glass), the curvature along the longitudinal direction of the molding is smaller than the curvature of the wall surface, so the contact area between the molding and the wall surface is centered. Then, the side edge of the molding on the window glass side rotates toward the window glass. For this reason, the side edge of the molding on the window glass side can be brought into close contact with the outer surface of the window glass.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4. FIG. 2 shows a front view of the window frame portion 38 to which the molding 30 is attached, and FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the - cutting line in FIG. In these figures, 32 is a window glass, 34 is a sponge,
A sealing material made of a cushioning material such as rubber. 3
Reference numeral 8 designates a window frame portion, which is formed by a wall surface 38A bent from the outside of the vehicle body to the inside of the vehicle body, and a flange 38B extending from the wall surface 38 toward the window opening, and has an L-shaped cross section. There is. The window frame portion 38 extends in the vehicle width direction, and its central portion in the vehicle width direction is curved with a constant curvature so as to protrude to the outside of the vehicle body. The molding 30 arranged along the window frame part 38 is fixed to the window frame part 38 by a clip 36, and is connected to the outer peripheral edge of the window glass 32 and the window frame part 38.
The gap with the wall surface 38A is covered. mall 30
is curved in its longitudinal direction with a smaller curvature than the curvature of the wall surface 38A.

According to the above configuration, as shown in FIG. 4, when attaching the molding 30 to the window frame part 38,
The molding 30 is pressed against the wall surface 38A of the window frame portion 38 in the direction of arrow A. In this case, the side edge 30A of the molding 30 on the window glass side is brought into contact with the outer surface of the window glass 32, and the side edge 30B of the molding 30 on the wall surface side is brought into contact with the outer surface of the window glass 32.
When pressed against a predetermined portion of the wall surface 38A that is further away from the flange 38B than the outer surface of the window glass 32 (a position closer to the outside of the vehicle body than the outer surface of the window glass 32),
The curvature along the longitudinal direction of the molding 30 is the wall surface 3.
8A, the side edge 30A of the molding 30 rotates toward the window glass 32 (in the direction of arrow B) about the contact point between the side edge 30B and the wall surface 38A. As a result, the side edge 30A of the molding 30 can be brought into close contact with the outer surface of the window glass 32.

[Effect of idea]

As explained above, according to the present invention, the molding can be brought into close contact with the outer surface of the window glass without using a reinforcing member, so that the weight of the molding can be reduced, and costs can also be reduced.

Furthermore, since high manufacturing precision is not required, this also contributes to cost reduction.
