Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention mainly relates to an automobile weather strip for attaching a hard-top vehicle with a pillar.

[Prior Art] Separate weather strips have been attached to the pillars of hardtop vehicles with pillars, one for the front door and one for the rear door. This type of vehicle had a gap between the center pillar and the weather strip, resulting in poor appearance. Moreover, the cost was also high.

In addition, a wide weather strip is attached to the outer surface of the center pillar, so that both front and rear door glass come into contact with a portion of the front and rear portions of the weather strip, creating a seal. It is also known that the weather strip of the door that is closed earlier is pushed toward the open door and deforms, and even if the door is closed later, the weather strip does not maintain the same sealing condition. It was difficult. Also, the weather strip was exposed on the center pillar, making it unsightly.

[Problems that the invention aims to solve] This invention has a single weather strip attached to the center pillar, which is not affected by the opening and closing of other doors, and has excellent strength because it is reinforced with a metal retainer. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a weather strip with excellent appearance.

[Means for solving problems] This will be explained with reference to the drawings.

The automotive weather strip according to this invention comprises a center pillar main body 1, a pillar inner side part 4 and a pillar outer side part having flange parts 2, 3 on both front and rear sides of the center pillar body 1, and a pillar outer side part. The front and rear pillar outer halves 5 are formed by dividing the front and rear parts into front and rear parts at the center, bending them at right angles to the outside, protruding outward in a superposed state, and further bending them symmetrically in the front and back to form hook parts 7. . Hollow seal portions 14 and 15 whose outer surfaces are covered with a connecting thin wall portion 11 and which lock both mounting bases 12 and 13 to the retainer 8, respectively, and which extend diagonally from the outer ends of each of the mounting bases 12 and 13; are provided respectively to form the weather strip main body 16, and when the door glass is closed, the door glass 17, 18
is the hollow seal part 1 of the weather strip main body 16
4, 15, and trims 21, 22 having a substantially U-shaped cross section are fitted to each of the front and rear flange portions 2, 3, and the trims 21, 2
2 and the weather strip main body 16 so that there is no gap between the two and the weather strip main body 16.

[Function] When the door glasses 17 and 18 are closed, the door glasses 17 and 18 come into contact with the hollow seal portions 14 and 15 to maintain airtightness.

[Embodiment] The center pillar main body 1 is composed of a pillar inner side part 4 and a pillar outer side part which have flange parts 2 and 3 on both sides of the front and rear of the center part.

The pillar outer side part is divided into front and rear parts at the center, bent outward at right angles, protrudes outward in an overlapping state, and is further symmetrically bent back and forth to form a hook part 7. Outer half 5,5
is formed by.

A retainer 8 having locking portions 9 and 10 for locking the mounting base of the weather strip is provided in the right angle portion of the pillar outer halves 5 and 5, respectively.

A hollow seal that covers the outer surface of the hook part 7 with a thin connecting part 11, locks both mounting bases 12 and 13 to the retainer 8, and extends diagonally from the outer end of each mounting base 12 and 13. A weather strip main body 16 is formed by providing the portions 14 and 15, respectively. and door glass 1
The door glasses 7 and 18 are constructed so as to come into contact with the hollow seal portions 14 and 15 of the weather strip main body 16 when the door glasses 7 and 18 are closed.

Trims 21 and 22 having a substantially U-shaped cross section are fitted to each of the front and rear flange portions 2 and 3.
22 and the weather strip main body 16 so that there is no gap.

In addition, when the door is a door with a sash, the door glass indicates the sash in the drawing.

[Effects of the invention] According to the invention, the weather strip on the front door side and the weather strip on the rear door side can be shared, which helps to reduce costs. Further, since the retainer 8 and the hook portion 7 independently seal the front and rear of the weather strip, there is no deterioration in sealing performance.
