Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to a molding assembly structure in a concealed wiper type front window structure in which the lower end is located inward from the bonnet surface.

A type of wiper in which all or part of the wiper is stored inside the bonnet surface from the viewing surface of the windshield when not in use is generally called a concealed wiper or semi-concealed wiper. The front window structure with this type of wiper is
Naturally, the lower end of the window glass is located below the bonnet surface, but the lower end of the window glass is covered and protected by a relatively wide plate-shaped molding called lower molding. On the other hand, the upper edge and left and right side edge edges of the window glass other than the lower edge are covered and hidden by window molding as in a normal window structure. This invention relates to a connection structure at an assembly portion between the above-mentioned lower molding, side end portion, and window molding on both sides of the glass.

The structure of the molding assembly part in the conventional window structure of this type is as shown in FIGS. Generally, it is bent into a hook shape, and the hook-shaped bent portion 42 is engaged with the lower edge of the lower molding 30.
However, since the assembly of the window molding is done at the final assembly stage of the car, in the case of this conventional structure, the hook-shaped bend is attached to the lower edge of the lower molding 30 fixed deep inside the bonnet. Not only does this require an extremely tedious task of having to engage portion 42, but it also requires moving and pulling the elongated window molding from outside the bonnet for alignment and engagement inside the bonnet. The molding is often damaged by coming into contact with the bonnet edge or other objects. In particular, the hook-shaped bent part of the molding is inserted deeply into the bonnet for positioning, and then pulled upward to engage the molding. However, as a result of the lifting, it often occurs that it appears in the most conspicuous visible part and greatly impairs its decorative function. In addition, in order to engage the hook-shaped bent portion 42 at the tip of the tall wind molding with the plate-shaped lower molding 30, the tip portion must be sunk downward through the bent portion 43 as shown in the figure. Therefore, a stepped portion is created on the upper surface of the molding, causing problems in appearance.

In view of these points, this invention is a new molding assembly that is simple and easy to position and assemble, has no risk of damaging the molding, and can be assembled without creating a step on the upper surface of the molding. It proposes a structure. Embodiments will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

Fig. 1 is a side view of the main parts of the front window structure of this invention, and as shown in the figure, in order to store the wiper W inside the bonnet B when not in use, its lower end is positioned below the bonnet B surface. The lower end 10a of the window glass 10 is polymerized and coated with a lower molding 20, and the upper edge 10b and side edges 10 of the window glass 10 are polymerized and coated with lower molding 20.
c is covered and hidden by the window molding 11. Note that this window glass 10 is directly fixed to the vehicle body through an adhesive using a known direct glazing structure.

Figures 2 and 3 are perspective views of the main parts before assembly showing an embodiment of this invention, Figure 4 is a sectional view showing the assembled state, and Figure 5 is a sectional view taken along line 5-5. be. As shown in the figure, in this invention, the side end 22 of the lower molding 20 is lifted up via the stepped part 23 and the bent part 24 is assembled to the side end 22 of the lower molding 20 and the side window molding 11. At the same time, the lower part of the side window molding 11, at least the tip part from the glass overlapping part 21 of the lower molding 20, has a substantially "D"-shaped cross section (including the upper surface extension part 12 of the window molding 11). Figure 3)
The lower molding 20 is formed within the insertion space 16 in the shape of a "U" or "U" shape (FIG. 2).
It is characterized in that the floating bent portion 24 at the side end is inserted and assembled. That is, the first feature of this invention is that by forming the insertion portion 15 on the side of the window molding 11, assembly with the lower molding 20 can be performed by moving them in the plane direction. This is what I did. Therefore, the shape of the insertion part 15 is a "D"-shaped cross section or a "U" shape in which it can be inserted.
Formed in a letter shape. The second feature of this invention is that the side end portion 22 of the lower molding 20 is formed as a raised bent portion 24 via a step portion 23, thereby reducing the insertion space of the insertion portion 15. 16
The side end portion 22 can be inserted and inserted properly, and the stepped portion 23 can be used to easily and reliably guide and position the assembly.

The plug-in part 15 can be formed entirely by an extension of the side window molding 11 or by a separate piece. FIGS. 2 and 3 show an insert formed entirely by an extension of the side window molding 11. FIG. As in these examples, when the side window molding 11 has a lower surface portion 13 of sufficient width on its lower surface side, the cross section can be shaped into a "D" or "U" shape by cutting off unnecessary parts. It is possible to form an insertion portion 15 having a shape.
On the other hand, when the side window molding 11 does not have a sufficient shape to form the insertion part 15, especially a sufficiently wide lower surface part, a separate piece 14 as shown in FIG. 6 or 8 is used. It is advantageous to use It is convenient that these pieces 14 are integrally formed with a fitting part 14a into the main body space of the window molding 11, and the insertion part 15 is formed by the fitting.

As mentioned above, in this invented structure, an insertion part having a roughly "D"-shaped or "U"-shaped cross section is formed in the wind molding, and Since the raised bent portion at the side end of the lower molding is inserted into the insertion space and assembled, both can be assembled by only moving them in the plane direction. Therefore, when actually assembling, the tip of the insertion part can be inserted from the upper side of the lower molding, or the insertion part can be positioned outside the lower molding side edge and the end of the insertion part can be directly inserted into the lower molding side. The assembly can be carried out extremely easily and reliably by pressing the lower molding into the bonnet. Scratches, scratches, etc. on the upper surface of the molding that occur during the complicated process of molding are greatly reduced. In addition, the side edge of the lower molding is formed into a raised shape through a step, so
Even if the main body of the wind molding, which is in direct pressure contact with the glass surface, is extended directly to the overlapping part of the lower molding, the lower molding can be inserted without any steps or twists being applied to the upper surface of the molding. It becomes possible,
A beautiful appearance can be assembled. In addition, since the stepped portion is useful for guiding and positioning both parts during insertion and assembly, this invention provides many practical advantages, such as improved efficiency of assembly work and certainty of finishing. It is something.
