Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve watertightness in a sealing structure so better, by forming each end cover to be installed in a slide panel end edge with a hard elastic body, and constituting it to tightly attach a soft elastic body to a colliding part between end covers themselves at the time of slide panel closure. CONSTITUTION:In both end covers 13 and 14, at least one end cover 14 is formed with a hard elastic body of vinyl chloride or the like. And, at the time of closing two slide panels 11 and 12, a soft elastic body 15 of sponge or the like is tightly attached to a colliding part between both these end covers 13 and 14 interposingly. With this constitution, at the time of closing these slide panels 11 and 12, both end covers 13 and 14 are closely fitted with each other owing to taper action of a fitting part as a taper-form convex part 13a and a concave part 14a are fitted in one with compressive deformation in the soft elastic body 15. Thus, sealability is well improved.

As a result, even though there are problems such as less water entering the passenger compartment when high water pressure is applied during car washing, and a reduction in water retention, the inventive point is that the conventional slide for vehicles as described above has problems. The object of the present invention is to provide a device that solves the problems that the panel seal structure has.

According to this embodiment, when the end cover l is bent and deformed, the tip of the lip lσ comes into contact with the inner end of the end cover/4'bO, resulting in the effect of maintaining the water-retaining property. Therefore, even if moisture intrudes between both end covers ISB, i≠b due to water pressure during car washing, etc., the water pressure will be alleviated by the screen effect of the ribs 1 and 2, which will prevent moisture from entering the interior. be.

は万全となる。According to the seal structure of the vehicle slide panel according to the invention as described in detail, the following effects can be achieved. In other words, since one or both of the end covers is formed using a hard elastic body as a base material, even if there is a shake when the slide panel slides, a variation in the abutment position, etc., the hard elastic body will not bend or deform. Since it can be absorbed by water, watertightness does not deteriorate. Therefore, it is possible to maintain extremely high watertightness fe at the abutting edges of both slide panels when the window is closed. In addition, the sealing performance is greatly improved due to the compressive deformation of the soft elastic body interposed and fixed to the areas where both end covers collide.6
Combined with the bending and deforming action of the hard elastic body, the sealing performance is perfect.

通用して有用である。Furthermore, since the ribs are provided protruding from the inner end of one side of the end cover, the screen effect of the ribs improves the swimsuitability. In addition, since at least one side of the end cover is made of a hard elastic material, the illuminating sound of the slide panel when the window is closed is alleviated, and the window has the advantage of being able to be opened and closed quietly. It is commonly used and useful.
