Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to a window support structure for a vehicle, and more particularly to a sealing system and invisible division bar modular assembly that interfaces between a fixed window and a movable window of a vehicle.
  • a fixed glass assembly typically incorporates a divider bar, one portion of which supports the glass run channel and a second portion formed of an elastomeric material molded about the periphery of the fixed window.
  • An improvement of the modular molding assembly that adequately seals about the windows of a vehicle, addresses assembly issues, and provides a division bar assembly with a smooth and flush appearance and that improves wind noise is desired.
  • An invisible division bar is provided that spans the interface between a movable widow and a fixed window, and guides and seals the movable window while providing a flush glass appearance, i.e., without protruding beyond an exterior surface of the windows.
  • a preferred embodiment of the division bar assembly includes a first portion or support secured to a fixed window and a second portion or guide fixed to the movable window.
  • the guide is received in a guide member cavity of the support which includes a low-friction material.
  • At least one seal lip extends from the support for engaging an inner surface of the movable window.
  • An inner garnish assembly is provided in a preferred arrangement to provide an aesthetic cover along the interior surface of the vehicle.
  • the support preferably includes a cavity that receives a glass run channel.
  • the glass run channel in a preferred arrangement includes the low friction material.
  • the division bar assembly does not have any portion extending onto the external surfaces of the windows.
  • a primary benefit of the invention is the improved aesthetics associated with the arrangement.
  • Another benefit offered by the invention is the low profile and reduced wind noise associated therewith.
  • Still another benefit is the ease of incorporation of the assembly into a surround molding module that facilitates assembly.
  • FIG. 1 is an elevational view of a prior art molding module used in association with a movable window and a fixed window.
  • FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken generally along the lines 2 - 2 in FIG. 1 .
  • FIG. 3 is a representation, partly in section, of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view taken generally along the lines 4 - 4 of FIG. 3 .
  • FIG. 5 is a sectional view taken generally along the lines 5 - 5 though the movable window portion of FIG. 3 .
  • FIG. 6 is a sectional view taken generally along the lines 6 - 6 through the fixed window portion of FIG. 3 .
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 a prior art arrangement disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,702,148 commonly owned by the assignee of the present application, is shown. More particularly, the prior art arrangement shows a molding module 20 that comprises a one-piece surround molding 22 , a glass run channel 24 , a belt line outer seal 26 , and a divider or division bar 28 . The division bar is interposed between a movable window 30 and a fixed window 32 ( FIG. 2 ).
  • the one-piece surround molding includes a belt line portion 34 , a B-pillar 36 , top or header portion 38 , and a sloping rear portion 40 . Attachment flange portions and a series of attachment clips 42 provide for support and retention of the module or surround molding to the vehicle.
  • the prior art division bar assembly 28 includes first and second legs 50 , 52 that are in generally parallel relation and form a cavity 54 that receives the glass run channel 24 .
  • the glass run channel includes a pair of legs having seal lips 56 , 58 that engage a first or outer surface 30 a and a second or inner surface 30 b , respectively, of the movable window 30 .
  • the glass run channel 24 typically incorporates a low-friction material such as flock 60 along the seal lips and in a base 62 of the glass run channel to provide a sliding, low friction engagement with the movable window.
  • the conventional division bar assembly 28 further includes a molded elastomeric material 70 that encapsulates a perimeter edge of the fixed window 32 . More particularly, the elastomeric window encapsulation 70 engages opposite first or exterior surface 32 a and a second or interior surface 32 b of the fixed window 32 .
  • the window encapsulation is preferably formed in an insert molding process where the elastomeric material is bonded to the first and second legs 50 , 52 and forms a seal against the outside elements.
  • a leg 72 of the surround molding 22 is received in a recess 74 between the division bar and the elastomer material to provide an aesthetic cover in the division bar region of the vehicle.
  • the division bar Although this surround molding module has met with commercial success, the division bar unfortunately provides a raised surface at the interface between the movable and fixed windows, i.e., a raised division bar that is unsightly, and also contributes to wind noise because of the extent by which the division bar protrudes from the external surface of the windows.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 more particularly illustrate the subject invention which relates to what is termed herein as an invisible division bar assembly 80 .
  • the invisible division bar spans the interface between the movable window 30 and fixed window 32 .
  • the window encapsulation 82 preferably an elastomeric material molded to the fixed window, extends about the entire perimeter of the fixed window.
  • the elastomeric encapsulation 82 engages not only the interior surface 32 b of the fixed window and the outer edge 32 c , but also extends over an outer extent of the exterior surface 32 a of the fixed window.
  • this portion of the elastomeric encapsulation at the invisible division bar region is also referred to as a support 84 .
  • the support spans generally vertically between the header and belt line and in a preferred arrangement includes a rigid support member 86 , such as a metal or plastic support member, substantially encapsulated in the elastomeric material.
  • the support member 86 includes a first leg 86 a that extends generally parallel to the interior surface of the fixed window (and which may include one face that is not encapsulated in the elastomeric material), a second leg 86 b extending generally perpendicularly toward the interior of the vehicle, and a third leg 86 c that extends forwardly from the second leg and in generally parallel, spaced relation from the interior surface of the movable window ( FIG. 4 ).
  • the elastomeric material of the support 84 may be formed from a wide range of suitable materials such as molded rubber, TPV (thermoplastic vulcanizate), PVC (polyvinyl chloride), or thermoplastic, that is adhesively secured, molded, or rubber bonded to the interior surface 32 b and outer edge 32 c of the fixed window.
  • TPV thermoplastic vulcanizate
  • PVC polyvinyl chloride
  • thermoplastic thermoplastic
  • this portion of the window encapsulation or support provides a butt joint between the movable and fixed windows and does not extend outwardly beyond the plane defined by the exterior surface of the movable and fixed windows. No portion of the support is received over the exterior surface 32 a of the fixed window nor extends beyond the plane of the exterior surface of the window. This flush arrangement enhances the aesthetics of the division bar assembly and reduces issues with respect to wind noise.
  • the surround molding portion includes a first portion or leg 92 secured to the support, shown here as extending parallel to and preferably secured by fasteners 94 , to the second leg 86 b of the support. It will be appreciated, however, that other securing arrangements may be used without departing from the scope and intent of the present invention.
  • Second and third portions 96 , 98 of the surround molding are disposed in spaced, generally parallel relation and define a recess or cavity 100 , shown here as a pair of spaced legs extending generally parallel to the interior surface of the movable window.
  • the second and third legs 96 , 98 defining the recess 100 form a guide member adapted to receive a leg 110 of guide or window encapsulation 112 that is secured to the interior surface of the movable window adjacent the vertical rear edge thereof.
  • the window encapsulant of the movable window can be any suitable material such as a molded rubber, EPDM, TPV, PVC, etc., that is secured to the interior surface of the movable window, for example, adhesively secured thereto.
  • the window encapsulation 112 can also be molded or rubber bonded to the movable window.
  • the leg 110 is dimensioned for receipt in the cavity 100 and serves the function of guiding or tracking the rear vertical edge of the movable window.
  • a low friction material is provided in the cavity shown here as a generally U-shaped insert 114 interposed between the legs 96 , 98 and the guide leg 110 .
  • Generally parallel legs 114 a , 114 b of the low friction material insert may be slightly bowed or curved into engagement with the guide leg 110 . This arrangement provides a desired low-friction, sliding engagement for the tracking of the rear vertical edge of the movable window.
  • a glass run channel 116 that includes at least one and preferably a pair of sealing guide lips 118 .
  • the sealing guide lips are either formed of a low-friction material, or include a low-friction material along selected portions thereof to provide the desired low-friction, sliding sealing engagement with the interior surface of the movable window.
  • the glass run channel is formed so that a first edge 120 defines a hook-shape or channel received over the leg 96 of the molding.
  • a leg 122 is received in a recess formed between the first leg and the remainder of the surround molding body 90 and is contoured to provide a snap-fit connection with the molding body. This effectively secures the glass run channel 116 to the support which is, in turn, secured to the fixed window.
  • an effective window seal and support is provided along the rear, vertical edge of the movable window.
  • an inner garnish 130 is provided as a part of the invisible division bar assembly 80 .
  • the garnish 130 is a fully molded surround component that is mechanically secured to the invisible division bar assembly, as well as to the remainder of the surround molding.
  • one preferred material is a plastic such as a polypropylene, although the invention should not be limited to this particular type of material.
  • the inner garnish is also shown as being mechanically fastened to the support along the invisible division bar assembly, while along other regions of the surround molding module, the inner garnish may include a leg secured by clips (see left- and right-hand cross sections along the invisible division bar assembly).
  • the inner garnish has overlay or cover portions 134 , 136 that provide an aesthetic finish to the assembly so that the individual components of the division bar assembly are visible from the interior of the vehicle.
  • the surround molding 90 is preferably either molded, extruded, or formed separately from the other components, while the glass run channel 116 in the preferred arrangement is molded at the upper B-pillar and molded in the division bar to the header.
  • Preferred materials are EPDM or plastic, although plastic has the additional advantage of reduced cost.
  • the front vertical edge of the fixed window 32 and the rear vertical edge of the movable window 30 are darkened, for example with a black-out frit 140 .
  • the frit is provided for aesthetic reasons of masking or hiding the remaining components of the invisible division bar assembly.
  • FIG. 5 illustrates a cross-section through the header portion adjacent the movable window.
  • the surround molding 150 in this region includes a pair of spaced legs 152 , 154 forming a channel 156 that receives a generally conventional glass run channel 160 .
  • the glass run channel legs include seal lips 162 , 164 which engage the inner and outer surfaces of the movable window.
  • the surround molding module further includes leg 166 that secures the inner trim 170 . It is also apparent from FIG. 5 that the guide or window encapsulation 112 secured to the interior surface 30 b of the movable window also terminates before reaching the upper edge of the movable window. This allows that portion of the movable window to be effectively received in the glass run channel along the header.
  • FIG. 6 illustrates a cross-sectional view along the header portion, but through the fixed window region. This view further illustrates how the support assembly 84 of the invisible division bar assembly is secured to the vehicle body, for example via fasteners 150 , and moreover how the inner trim 170 effectively covers the invisible division bar assembly in this region, as well as covering the interfit between the surround molding and the window encapsulation of the fixed window.
  • the door seal assembly is secured to flanges of the vehicle body and has hollow bulb portions that extend into sealing engagement with portions of the door.
