Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention mainly relates to a sliding window device that is attached to the side wall of a vehicle such as a bus and can be opened and closed.

[Conventional technology]

As shown in FIG. 1, an immovable window glass 4 and a rectangular window glass 3 that can be opened and closed are supported on a rectangular window frame 1 of a conventional window device, and a handle is fixed to the side edge of the window glass 3. The window frame 1 is locked by engaging a locking metal fitting integral with the window frame 1 with a receiving metal fitting on the side wall 1c of the window frame 1.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, a receiving metal fitting 5 made of a substantially rectangular plate having a hole 5a is fixed to a side wall 1c of a window frame 1 having a U-shaped horizontal cross section. A seal member 8 made of rubber or the like and having an E-shaped horizontal cross section is coupled inside the side wall 1c, and the side edge 3c of the window glass 3 is elastically engaged with this seal member 8. A fixing member 10 is attached to the outer surface of the side edge of the window glass 3.
However, the handles 2 are superimposed on the inner surface, and are connected by bolts 21 passing through the window glass 3. A locking metal fitting 6 that is integral with the handle 2a is rotatably supported by the handle 2 by a pin 7, and the receiving metal fitting 5 of the locking metal fitting 6 engages with the hole 5a, and the window glass 3 is locked. .

In the conventional window device described above, as shown in FIG. 1, the handle 2 is generally arranged at the upper and lower center of the side edge of the window glass 3 so that the window glass 3 can be opened and closed easily. be. However, when the window is opened, the handle 2 protrudes from the upper and lower center, which obstructs the view and becomes an eyesore. Therefore, it is desirable to arrange the handle 2 preferably below (or above) the side edge of the window glass 3.

However, if the handle 2 is arranged at the lower side edge of the window glass 3, when the window glass 3 is closed and locked at the handle 2, the upper wall 1a and the lower wall 1b of the window frame 1 supporting the window glass 3 will be closed. Since there is a vertical gap in the rail, the lower side edge of the window glass 3 is drawn closer to the side wall 1c of the window frame than the upper side edge, as shown in FIG. There are problems in that the edges rise up, the sealing performance of the upper side edges deteriorates, and noise is generated due to rattling of the window glass 3.

There is also a window locking device as disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Application Publication No. 57-172862, but this device has a complicated structure and is difficult for ordinary passengers to operate.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a window device for a vehicle that does not obstruct the view of the window and that does not cause any looseness due to the gap between the side edge of the window glass and the side wall of the window frame when the window is closed. be.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the structure of the present invention is such that a locking fitting that engages with a receiving fitting of the window frame is provided at the lower part of the side edge of the window glass that is slidably supported on the rectangular window frame. The side edge of the window glass is cut diagonally so that the width of the glass becomes wider toward the top, and the inclination of the side edge is set so that when the window glass is locked, the side edge engages with the side wall of the window frame without a gap. It is something.

[Effect]

When the window glass 3 is closed, before the locking fitting 6 integrated with the handle 2a engages with the receiving fitting 5 of the window frame 1,
The upper part of the diagonally cut side edge 3c of the window glass 3 comes into contact with the side wall 1c of the window frame 1 first. Side edge 3c
The degree of inclination of the window glass 3 is set so that the side edge 3c of the window glass 3 engages with the side wall 1c of the window frame 1 without a gap, so that sealing performance is improved and vibration noise of the window glass 3 due to vehicle body vibration is prevented. Ru.

[Example of idea]

As shown in FIG. 4, the window glass 3 is constructed by cutting one side edge 3c of a rectangular plate glass diagonally. That is, the side edge 3c facing the side wall 1c of the window frame 1 of the window glass 3 whose upper edge 3a and lower edge 3b are parallel
is not perpendicular to the upper edge 3a and lower edge 3b, but is inclined. In other words, when the handle 2 and the lock fitting (same as shown in FIG. 2) are arranged below the side edge, the side edge 3c should be placed so that the glass width of the upper edge 3a is wider than that of the lower edge 3b. is tilted.

With the configuration described above, as shown in FIG.
Since there is an appropriate gap between the rail b and the window glass 3, the window glass 3 as a whole tilts to the left (in the direction of the arrow). However, in advance window glass 3
The side edge 3c is sloped upward to the right, in other words, the glass width at the upper part of the side edge is wider, so
The side edge 3c engages with the groove in the side wall 1c of the window frame 1 without any gap.

When the window glass 3 is closed and locked, the side edge 3d of the window glass 3 remains tilted, but as described above, the side edge 3c of the window glass 3 is in close contact with the side wall 1c of the window frame 1, so the sealing performance is improved. is improved. In addition, since the corner part a of the upper edge 3a and the corner part b of the lower edge 3b of the window glass 3 engage with the rails of the upper wall 1a and the lower wall 1b of the window frame 1 without play, the window glass 3 is There is no rattling and vibration noise is prevented.

When the lock is released, the inclination of the window glass 3 is canceled by its own weight, and a gap is created with respect to the rail of the upper wall 1a of the window frame 1, allowing smooth opening and closing operations.

[Effect of idea]

As described above, the present invention is provided with a lock fitting that engages with a receiving fitting of the window frame at the lower part of the side edge of the window glass that is slidably supported on the rectangular window frame. The edge is cut diagonally so that the width of the glass increases toward the top, and the inclination of the side edge is set so that when the window glass is locked, the side edge engages with the side wall of the window frame without a gap. is placed at the lower part of the side edge of the window glass, so it is easy to operate from the seat and the view of the window is not obstructed.

Furthermore, since the side edge of the window glass is engaged with the groove in the side wall of the window frame without any gaps, sealing performance is improved and vibration noise of the window glass is prevented.
