Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a seal structure for a sunroof device that seals between a sunroof device installed in an opening of a vehicle roof and a ceiling covering the lower surface of the vehicle roof.

<Prior art> For example, in a passenger car, etc., an opening is provided in the roof of the vehicle, a frame is provided at the edge of this opening to support a roof cover that opens and closes the opening, and the lower part of the frame is covered all around. Some sunroof devices include a cover member, and a seal member is provided on the outer peripheral edge of the cover member to close a gap between the cover member and a ceiling that covers the lower part of the vehicle roof.
As shown in FIG. 4, this seal member 31 has a mounting base 33 that is attached to the outer peripheral edge of the cover member 32, and a lip portion 34 that protrudes outward from the mounting base 33 so as to come into contact with the ceiling. It is generally formed by extrusion molding.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> However, when the conventionally extruded seal member 31 is bent along the corner portion along the cover member 32, the lip portion 34 is bent as shown by the solid line in FIG.
The corner portions of the device were raised more than the general portion shown by the chain line, giving an unsightly appearance when worn, and furthermore, since the lip portions 34 were raised, there were problems such as the corner portions not touching the ceiling. Also,
There is a method of separately molding only the corner portions of the sealing member 31, but this increases the manufacturing cost and causes a change in color only at the corner portions, resulting in an unsightly appearance.

In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is designed to prevent the corner portion of the lip portion of the sealing member from rising to an extreme degree compared to the general portion, so that it has a good appearance and can be sufficiently mounted on the ceiling. .

<Means for solving the problem> The technical means of the present invention for solving this technical problem is that the vehicle roof 2 is provided with an opening 3, and the opening edge 3a is provided with a roof that opens and closes the opening 3. A frame 6 that supports the lid 5 is provided, and a cover member 11 that covers the entire lower part of the frame 6 is provided,
A seal member 18 is provided on the outer peripheral edge of the cover member 11 to close between the cover member 11 and the ceiling 15 that covers the lower part of the vehicle roof 2.
8 is a mounting base 19 attached to the cover member 11
and a lip portion 20 protruding from the base portion 19 so as to come into contact with the ceiling 15, the cover member 11 is provided with a corner portion of the lip portion 20 of the seal member 18 so as to press downward. The point is that a pressing piece 26 that comes into contact is provided in a protruding manner.

<Function> Since the pressing piece 26 presses the corner portion of the lip portion 20 of the sealing member 18 downward, even if the extruded sealing member 18 is bent along the cover member 11, the corner portion of the lip portion 20 will not bend. The pressing piece 26 can prevent the general portion from rising too much.

<Embodiment> Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained according to the illustrated embodiment. In FIGS. 1 to 3, 1 is a vehicle illustrated as a passenger car, and the vehicle roof 2 is provided with an opening 3. , a sunroof device 4 is installed.

This sunroof device 4 is installed in a vehicle after being assembled by newly forming an opening 3, and the roof cover 5 that opens and closes the opening 3 can be of any type such as a slide type, a tilt type, or a slide/tilt type. It is also possible to use a slide/tilt type in the embodiment.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a frame shaped like a rectangular frame in plan view mounted on the opening edge 3a of the opening 3 from above;
It is fastened to the sub-frame 7 which is abutted from below by bolts, and is fixed to the opening edge 3a while sandwiching the opening edge 3a.

A cover member 11 covers the lower part of the frame 6 and sub-frame 7, and is fixed to the frame 6 with a fastener via a bracket or the like. Cover member 1
A fitting recess 12 recessed upward in a U-shape and a locking part 13 protruding downward in an L-shape are continuously formed on the outer peripheral edge of the housing 1 . 14 is a tension ceiling attached to the lower surface of the roof 2.

15 is a molded ceiling that covers the lower part of the vehicle roof 2, and an opening 16 is formed to correspond to the opening 3 of the roof 2, and the outer peripheral edge of the cover member 11 is positioned below the opening edge of the opening 16. are doing.

Reference numeral 18 denotes a sealing member that closes the gap between the ceiling 15 and the cover member 11, and includes a mounting base 19 that is attached to the cover member 11, and a lip portion 20 that projects upward from the base 19 so as to come into contact with the ceiling 15. Equipped with. This seal member 18 is integrally formed by extrusion molding, and is bent along the outer periphery of the cover member 11 into a rectangular shape in plan view. The mounting base 19 includes a fitting part 21 that is inserted and fitted into the fitting recess 12 of the cover member 11, and an engaging part that projects upward in a hook shape so as to engage with the locking part 13 of the cover member 11 from above. 22 and a connecting portion 23 that connects the engaging portion 22 and the fitting portion 21. The lip portion 20 projects upward from below the engaging portion 22 of the mounting base 19 so as to come into contact with the ceiling 15.

Reference numeral 26 denotes a pressing piece integrally protruding from the corner portion of the cover member 11, which abuts the corner portion of the lip portion 20 of the sealing member 18 so as to press it downward. It protrudes outward and upward at a slope similar to that of the section.

<Effects of the invention> According to the invention, since the cover member 11 is provided with a protruding pressing piece 26 that contacts the corner portion of the lip portion 20 of the seal member 18 so as to press it downward, the extruded seal Even if the member 18 is bent at the corner along the cover member 11, the lip portion 2
The corner part of 0 does not rise up more than the general part, the appearance is very good, and the lip part 20 can be reliably attached to the ceiling 15 over the entire circumference. Furthermore, it is no longer necessary to separately mold only the corner portions of the sealing member 18, and the sealing member 18 can be easily manufactured and provided at low cost, and its practical effects are significant.
