Abstract

The moulded elastomer weatherstrip (8) is used with the slidable sun-roof (6) of a road vehicle. It has an approximate 'S' section whereby it houses onto the edges (3,4) of both the roof opening (2) and a raised drip-tray. It may comprise a rectangular frame, the top groove (8b) widening (8c) on the short sides to accommodate a 'U' section track (5) for the slidable panel (6). The short sides may extend (10) unilaterally in the same 'U' section (8c), to accommodate the track extensions for the panel (6) when retracted. The long side remote from extensions may include a flared upstand (9) which constitutes a closure-stop with an air-deflector (9a).

Description

La présente invention concerne le domaine des toits ouvrants de véhicule automobile. Elle vise plus particulièrement le montage, sur le pavillon d'un véhicule, d'un toit ouvrant dont le panneau mobile dégage une ouverture en coulissant au-dessus du pavillon. The present invention relates to the field of motor vehicle sunroofs. It is more particularly the mounting, on the roof of a vehicle, a sunroof whose movable panel has an opening sliding over the roof.

Ce type de toit ouvrant comprend généralement un cadre qui borde une ouverture ménagée dans le pavillon1 et qui porte sur ses côtés latéraux deux glissières prolongées vers l'arrière du véhicule et dans lesquelles coulisse le panneau mobile. Cet ensemble formé par le cadre et les glissières est habituellement fixé sur le pavillon par vissage, rivetage ou soudure, ce qui pose des problèmes d'étanchéité difficiles à résoudre. This type of sunroof generally comprises a frame which borders an opening in the flag 1 and which carries on its lateral sides two extended rails towards the rear of the vehicle and in which slides the movable panel. This assembly formed by the frame and the slides is usually fixed to the roof by screwing, riveting or welding, which poses sealing problems difficult to solve.

L'invention a pour but d'apporter une solution particulièrement simple au montage de tels toits ouvrants, et susceptibles de résoudre en même temps le problème de l'étanchéité. The invention aims to provide a particularly simple solution to the assembly of such sunroofs, and likely to solve the problem of sealing at the same time.

A cet effet, elle a pour obJet un Joint en élastomère, caractérisé en ce qu'il a en section transversale la forme générale d'un S, et est adapté pour s'engager d'une part sur le pourtour de l'ouverture du pavillon et, d'autre part, sur le pourtour du cadre. To this end, it has for objet an elastomer seal, characterized in that it has in cross section the general shape of an S, and is adapted to engage on the one hand on the periphery of the opening of the pavilion and, on the other hand, around the perimeter of the frame.

De préférence, le long d'un de ses côtés (côté avant) le Joint comporte une surface supérieure profilée pour constituer un déflecteur d'air. Preferably, along one of its sides (front side) the gasket has a profiled upper surface to form an air deflector.

De préférence, également, le Joint comporte deux parties à section en C, qui prolongent ses deux côtés latéraux. Preferably, also, the seal comprises two C-section portions, which extend its two lateral sides.

L'invention a également pour obJet un toit ouvrant pour véhicule automobile, comprenant un cadre bordant une ouverture du pavillon et deux glissières latérales disposées au dessus du pavillon et servant de guide pour un panneau mobile, caractérisé en ce que le cadre est fixé sur le pavillon au moyen d'un joint en élastomère, tel que défini ci-dessus.  The invention also relates to a sunroof for a motor vehicle, comprising a frame bordering an opening of the roof and two lateral rails arranged above the roof and serving as a guide for a movable panel, characterized in that the frame is fixed on the flag by means of an elastomeric seal, as defined above.

Un exemple de réalisation de l'invention fait l'objet de la description qui suit, en référence aux dessins joints, dans les quels
- la Fig. I est une vue éclatée d'un ensemble selon l'invention;
- les Fig. 2, 3 et 4 sont des sections de l'ensemble monté, respectivement suivant les lignes 2-2, 3-3 et 4-4 de la Fig. 1.
An exemplary embodiment of the invention is the subject of the following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which
FIG. I is an exploded view of an assembly according to the invention;
- Figs. 2, 3 and 4 are sections of the assembled assembly, respectively along the lines 2-2, 3-3 and 4-4 of FIG. 1.

On voit sur la Fig. 1, un pavillon 1 de véhicule automobile, dans lequel est ménagée une ouverture 2 limitée par une bordure 3. We see in FIG. 1, a flag 1 of a motor vehicle, in which is formed an opening 2 limited by a border 3.

Un toit ouvrant, destiné à être monté sur ce pavillon 1, comprend un cadre 4, deux glissières latérales 5 et un panneau mobile 6 constitué, par exemple, par une vitre sur les bords de laquelle sont collés des coulisseaux 7 destinés à coopérer avec les glissières 5. Ces dernières sont fixées sur les côtés latéraux du cadre 4, par exemple par soudure, et elles se proloiigent vers l'årriere au-delà du cadre. An opening roof, intended to be mounted on this roof 1, comprises a frame 4, two lateral rails 5 and a movable panel 6 constituted, for example, by a window on the edges of which are glued sliders 7 intended to cooperate with the slides 5. These are fixed on the lateral sides of the frame 4, for example by welding, and they extend towards the rear beyond the frame.

Le montage et l'assemblage du cadre 4 sur le pavillon 1 s'effectuent au moyen d'un joint 8 en élastomère, présentant en section transversale une forme générale en S, qui s' engage par ses deux rainures a 8bu > d'une part, sur la bordure 3 de l'ouverture 2 du pa- villon 1 et, d'autre part, sur le bord extérieur 4a du cadre 4. The mounting and assembly of the frame 4 on the roof 1 is effected by means of a seal 8 made of elastomer, having in cross section a general shape in S, which is engaged by its two grooves 8bu> of a on the edge 3 of the opening 2 of the flap 1 and, on the other hand, on the outer edge 4a of the frame 4.

On voit clairement sur le dessin (Fig. 2 et 3) que si la section transversale du Joint 8 a bien une forme générale en S sur toute la partie de ce Joint qui entoure le cadre 4, cette section est cependant ' adaptée à la forme des parties du cadre avec lesquelles le Joint coopère. C'est ainsi que le long des bords avant et arrière a b (Fig. 2) le Joint délimite deux rainures 8- > 8- de faible épaisseur recevant les bords également minces du pavillon 1 et du cadre 4, tandis que le long des deux côtés latéraux (Fig. 3) le Joint délimite a une rainure 8- de faible épaisseur recevant la bordure 3 et une rai-
b nure 8 sensiblement plus haute recevant les glissières 5.
It is clearly seen in the drawing (Figures 2 and 3) that while the cross section of the gasket 8 has a generally S-shaped shape throughout the portion of this gasket that surrounds the frame 4, this section is, however, adapted to the shape parts of the frame with which the joint cooperates. Thus along the front and rear edges ab (Fig. 2) the seal delimits two grooves 8-> 8-thin receiving the equally thin edges of the flag 1 and the frame 4, while along the two lateral sides (Fig. 3) the seal delimits a thin groove 8- receiving the edge 3 and a rim-
b 8 substantially higher receiving the slides 5.

La partie du Joint 8 disposée le long du côté avant du cadre 4 comporte de plus un rebord 9 dirigé sur le haut et dont la
a surface supérieure 9- est inclinée vers le haut de l'avant vers l'arrière (Fig. 2), afin de constituer un déflecteur d'air lorsque le panneau mobile 6 dégage l'ouverture 2. De préférence, la surépaisseur résultant de la présence du rebord 9 correspond à peu près à celle qui résulte de la hauteur plus importante de la rainure 8- le long des côtés latéraux de façon à faciliter le raccordement à l'emplacement des deux angles avant et améliorer l'esthéti-que.L'épaisseur totale du Joint est ainsi à peu près la même le long de son bord avant et de ses deux bords latéraux.
The portion of the gasket 8 disposed along the front side of the frame 4 further comprises a rim 9 directed on the top and whose
the upper surface 9 is inclined upwards from the front to the rear (FIG 2), to constitute an air deflector when the movable panel 6 releases the opening 2. Preferably, the extra thickness resulting from the flange 9 corresponds approximately to that resulting from the greater height of the groove 8- along the lateral sides so as to facilitate the connection to the location of the two front angles and improve the aesthetic. The total thickness of the seal is thus approximately the same along its front edge and its two lateral edges.

La partie du Joint 8 disposée le long des côtés latéraux comporte des prolongements 10 dont la section en C correspond à la partie supérieure de la section en S des côtés latéraux du joint. The portion of the gasket 8 disposed along the lateral sides has extensions 10 whose C-section corresponds to the upper part of the S-section of the lateral sides of the gasket.

Ces prolongements enserrent les glissières 5 et sont disposés entre ces glissières et le pavillon 1 Dans cette partie, les glissières sont fixées sur le pavillon 1 par des gouJons 11 (Fig. 4).These extensions enclose the slides 5 and are arranged between these rails and the roof 1 In this part, the rails are fixed on the roof 1 by studs 11 (FIG 4).

Naturellement, des moyens connus, non représentés ici, sont prévus pour pouvoir bloquer le panneau mobile 6 par rapport au cadre 4 et, ce, de façon étanche. Naturally, known means, not shown here, are provided to block the movable panel 6 relative to the frame 4 and, in a sealed manner.

En utilisant un tel joint, on facilite sensiblement les opérations de montage du toit ouvrant puisque les seuls organes de fixation utilisés sont les gouJons 11 solidarisant la partie arrière des glissières 5 et le pavillon. De plus, une excellente étanchéité est réa liséëaussi bien le long du cadre et de l'ouverture ménagée dans le pavillon que le long des glissières 5.  By using such a seal, the mounting operations of the sunroof are substantially facilitated since the only fasteners used are studs 11 joining the rear part of the slides 5 and the roof. In addition, an excellent seal is achieved both along the frame and the opening in the roof and along the rails 5.
