Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a belt molding mounted on an upper edge portion of a vehicle door.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A belt molding of this type is generally attached to a plurality of claws provided on the upper edge of a vehicle door by engaging corresponding hooks.
In particular, both ends are locked to the vehicle body side, for example, by sandwiching the sash on the vehicle body side and the molding with clips separate from the belt molding (see Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 2-24330).

According to such a conventional molding mounting structure, when the belt molding end is mounted,
At least two operations, that is, the end of the molding main body is brought into contact with the upper edge of the vehicle body and the sash and the molding main body are sandwiched by clips in this state, are troublesome. Further, according to this mounting structure, in order to improve the appearance of the end portion of the molding body, the end cap fixed to the end portion is provided with a notch for inserting a clip, or a projection for preventing the clipped clip from falling off. The structure was extremely complicated, such as the provision of holes.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a belt molding capable of facilitating the work of attaching the end portion of the molding body to the vehicle door and simplifying the end structure based on the above problems of the conventional belt molding. With the goal.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a belt molding in which a molding body extending to the left and right of a vehicle door is attached to an upper edge portion of the vehicle door. It is characterized in that a hook portion that engages with the door is provided.

Therefore, the end portion of the molding body can be made into a simple structure, and at the time of mounting work on the vehicle door, the both ends of the molding body can be engaged with each other by simply engaging both the hook portions with the vehicle door side. Can be easily installed on.

Further, if the hook portion is made of a flexible member and is provided with an inclined portion for moving and guiding the hook portion to a portion to be engaged with the vehicle door, both ends of the molding main body are connected to the vehicle door. The hooks at both ends can be engaged with the vehicle door by simply pushing it toward the side. Therefore, the work of wearing the belt molding can be further simplified.

Further, by engaging the hooks on both ends of the molding body with the engaging notches provided on the sash provided on the vehicle door, the molding body is secured to both ends in the thickness direction of the vehicle door. It is possible to regulate movement in the vertical direction.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The present invention will be described below with reference to illustrated embodiments. FIG. 5 is a view of an automobile door (vehicle door) to which the synthetic resin belt molding 17 according to the present invention should be attached, as seen from the outside of the vehicle. In the figure, a door 11 includes a door panel 12, a sash 13 provided on the back side of the door panel 12, a window glass 14 supported by the sash 13 so as to be able to move up and down, and the door panel 12 is located between the sash 13 and the door panel 12. 12 has a belt line reinforcement 15 welded on the back and the left side and the like.

This belt line reinforcement 15
On the back of the belt, a plurality of hooks 17 of the belt molding 17
A plurality of claw portions 16 for locking a are provided in the left-right direction (lateral direction) of the door 11. Also sash 13
As shown in FIG. 1, by engaging the terminal hook portion 19a at a position corresponding to the terminal hook portion 19a of the end pad 19, both ends of the molding body in the thickness direction and the vertical direction of the door 11 are engaged. It has an engaging notch portion 10 that restricts the movement of the portion.
The terminal hook portion 19a engaged with the engagement cutout portion 10 is restricted from moving in the thickness direction of the door 11 and is restricted from moving up and down by the upper and lower restriction projections 13a.

The belt molding 17 is shown in FIGS.
As shown in FIG. 6, the molding body has a substantially inverted U shape as a whole when viewed in the longitudinal direction, and is exposed to the outside of the vehicle when mounted on the door 11, and the design surface 17b located on the rear surface side. It has a hook portion 17a and a lip portion 17c that elastically contacts the window glass 14. Further, end pads 19 that are separate from the molding body are fixed to both ends of the belt molding 17 (see FIG. 5). The end pad 19 is made of a flexible synthetic resin that is fixed to both ends of the molding body by injection molding or the like. The end pad 19 is attached to the rear surface of the design surface 17b and the extended portion 19c and the sash 13. It has the above-mentioned terminal hook part 19a bent so that it may engage.

Therefore, when the belt molding 17 having the above structure is mounted on the door 11 of an automobile, the upper end portions of the door panel 12 and the belt line reinforcement 15 are inserted between the design surface 17b and the hook portion 17a. And fit it in. At this time, the belt molding 17
Engages a plurality of hooks 17a with the plurality of claws 16 on the back surface of the belt line reinforcement 15 respectively, and engages the terminal hooks 19a of the end pads 19 at both ends with the engagement of both ends of the sash 13. The notches 10 are engaged with each other.

Therefore, in the belt molding 17, the lip portion 17c is elastically contacted with the window glass 14 and the molding body is
The terminal hook engaged with the upper edge portion of the door panel 12 and the belt line reinforcement 15 (upper edge portion of the vehicle door 11) by the claw portion 16 and the hook portion 17a, and both ends of which are engaged with the engaging cutout portion 10. The portion 19a locks the sash 13.
As a result, the belt molding 17 is restricted from moving in the thickness direction and the vertical direction of the door 11, so that the entire belt molding 17 can conform to the shape of the door 11.

As described above, according to the belt molding 17, both ends of the molding body can be made into a simple structure, and at the time of mounting work on the door 11, both hooks 1
Both ends can be easily attached only by engaging 9a with the door side.

The belt molding 17 in the first embodiment has a terminal hook portion 1 as shown in FIG.
9a was merely bent inward, but this terminal hook portion 19a is sashed 13 as shown in FIG. 6, for example.
If the terminal hook portion 19a 'is formed by forming an inclined surface on the surface facing to, the following advantages can be obtained. That is, the belt molding 17 having the terminal hook portion 19a 'is attached to the door 1
In the case of attaching to the No. 1, the both ends are simply pushed toward the sash 13, and the inclined surfaces are slidably contacted with the engaging notches 10 to bend both terminal hooks 19a to the left and right. 19
a can be easily engaged. Therefore, the work of mounting the belt molding 17 becomes easier.

In the first and second embodiments, the belt molding 17 is composed of the molding body and the end pad 19 which is a separate member fixed to the molding body. However, as shown in FIG. It is also possible to integrally form the both with the same synthetic resin material.

[0017]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the hook portions that engage with the vehicle door are provided at both ends of the molding body,
It is possible to provide a belt molding that facilitates the work of attaching the end of the molding body to the vehicle door and can simplify the end structure.
