Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention provides for a side edge of the eaves section along the upper side of the window frame of a side door of an automobile, from the upper horizontal part of the window frame to the upper horizontal part of the window frame in the vertical direction. Relating to a side visor, in which an ear portion inserted into a glass groove spanning a midway point of the part is integrally provided, and locking tools that are retained and retained by felt etc. of the glass groove are attached to the ear portion at a distance from each other. It is something.

[Conventional technology]

This type of side visor is known, for example, as shown in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 41-975. In this side visor, the vertical part of the window frame (especially the part near the vertical side at the rear end of the window frame)
By processing the lower end edge of the ear portion inserted into the ear portion into an inclined surface that is positioned outward toward the lower side, the end surface of the window glass is configured to prevent the end surface of the window glass from catching on the lower end edge of the ear portion.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in such a configuration, e.g.
If you casually put your finger on the eaves of the side visor while waiting at a traffic light, or if a child makes a similar push-down motion and applies downward external force, the eaves of the side visor will tilt toward the window glass. When the lower end of the vertical portion of the ear inserted into the glass groove moves toward the center of the groove, and the window glass is closed in such a state,
The upper edge of the window glass comes into contact with the lower end of the upper and lower portions of the ears, making it impossible to raise the window any further, and sometimes the corners of the window glass are chipped. . These are major problems for power window type automobiles in which the window glass automatically rises and lowers.

The present invention has been developed in view of the above circumstances, and is designed to ensure that the upper edge of the window glass is in contact with the lower end of the upper edge of the ear, regardless of the displacement of the lower end of the vertical portion of the ear toward the center of the glass groove. The purpose is to prevent the smooth closing of the window glass and damage to the window glass.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides the side visor mentioned at the beginning, in which the lower end portion of the ear portion is inserted into the glass groove of the vertical portion of the window frame. It is characterized in that it is provided with an elastically deformable guide tool that protrudes below the lower end of the vertical portion of the ear portion and is curved so that the protruding portion is positioned outward toward the bottom in a free state.

[Effect]

According to the above configuration, even if a downward external force is applied to the eaves portion and the lower end of the vertical portion of the ear portion is displaced toward the center within the glass groove, the lower end edge of the guide will be retained by the elastic biasing force. It is maintained in a state where it presses the inner surface of the glass groove on the eaves side. Therefore, when the window glass is closed, the upper edge of the window glass comes into sliding contact with the curved surface of the guide, and the upper and lower portions of the ears are displaced and raised via the guide so that they return to their normal posture. It turns out.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

A metal material such as stainless steel or aluminum, which has a predetermined shape with flat surfaces left on both sides in the width direction and a large number of uneven stripes extending along the longitudinal direction in the center, is bulged by press working or the like to create an automobile window frame. A side visor main body 4 is molded, and includes an eave part 2 along the upper side of the window frame 1, and an ear part 3 inserted into the upper glass groove extending from the horizontal part of the window frame 1 to a midway point in the vertical part continuous thereto. A resin cover 5 is elastically fitted to the outer edge of the portion 2, and the ear portion 3 at a portion corresponding to the front and rear portions and the upper portion of the eaves portion 2 is provided with a cover 5 made of resin.
A metal side visor is constructed by fixing a locking tool 6 having a substantially U-shaped cross section to a felt or the like in the glass groove.

As shown in FIG.
When placed over the surface (outer surface), it is fixed with a metal fitting or the like.

Of the ears 3, the upper and lower portions of the ears that are inserted into the glass grooves of the vertical portions of the window frame 1 have a fourth groove located between the window glass in the closed state.
As shown in the figure, in a free state, an elastically deformable guide tool 8 such as a synthetic resin molded product, which curves outward toward the lower end (eaves section 2), is connected to the lower end of the ear section in the vertical direction. When the ear portion 2 is inserted into the glass groove and the side visor is engaged and held in the glass groove by the locking tool 6, the second
As shown in the figure, the lower edge of the guide tool 8 is configured to press against the inner surface of the glass groove by the elastic restoring force of the guide tool 8.

Therefore, even if the eaves section 2 is tilted toward the window glass due to an action such as placing a finger on the lower end side of the eaves section 2, the lower end edge of the guide tool 8 will be attached to the inner surface of the glass groove, as shown in FIG. is maintained in a pressed state, and when the window is closed, the window glass rises while slidingly contacting the curved surface of the guide tool 8. Along with this, the ear portion 3 is pressed and displaced outward by the window glass, and the eaves portion 2 is corrected to its original correct posture.

Note that the guide tool 8 may be formed by integrally molding the vertical portion of the ear portion 3 by extending it downward.

[Effect of the invention]

Since the present invention has the above-described configuration, even if a downward external force is applied to the eaves portion, the lower end of the vertical portion of the ear portion is displaced toward the center of the glass groove, and the window glass rises in this state, The upper edge of the window glass rises while slidingly contacting the curved surface of the guide, and accordingly, the upper and lower portions of the ears are pressed outward and the eaves can be returned to its original position. Therefore, it is now possible to prevent the upper edge of the window glass from getting caught in the upper and lower portions of the ear, preventing the window glass from rising smoothly or chipping the upper edge of the window glass.
