[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] It should be understood that although the terms upper, middle, lower, top, end, etc. appear in this article to describe various elements, these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish elements from each other for easy understanding, and are not used to define any direction or order limitation.

[0034] like Figure 1-9 As shown, a connecting assembly for a roof sunroof sealing strip 2 is arranged between a guide rail 1 and a sealing strip 2, and the guide rail and the sealing strip are arranged on one side of the moving glass. The connecting assembly includes:

[0035] A contoured body 3, wherein the contoured body 3 has the same curvature as the guide rail 1, and the contoured body 3 supports the sealing strip 2 on the guide rail 1;

[0036] The connecting component 4 is arranged on the upper and lower sides of the contoured body 3 along its length direction. The upper connecting component 4 is formed with a bearing surface adapted to the curvature of the moving glass. The bearing surface cooperates with the sealing strip 2 so that the sealing strip matches the curvature of the moving glass. The upper connecting component tightens the sealing strip 2 so that the sealing strip 2 is firmly fixed on the contoured body 3.

[0037] The connecting member 4 at the bottom tightens the contoured body 3 toward the guide rail 1, reduces the installation gap between the sealing strip 2 and the contoured body 3, avoids the sealing strip 2 from being offset or arched by force, increases the degree of cooperation between the sealing strip 2 and the contoured body 3, and ensures the installation stability and reliability of the sealing strip 2;

[0038] Among them, the matching end surface of the upper connecting component and the sealing strip 2 is adapted to the curvature of the arc of the moving glass, the arrangement of the connecting parts is adapted to the curvature of the arc of the guide rail, and an intermediate connecting component is arranged between the guide rail 1 and the sealing strip 2. A contoured body 3 consistent with the arc of the guide rail 1 is arranged as a transition to ensure the adaptability of the arc curvature of the sealing strip 2 and the guide rail 1.

[0039] In essence, the curvature matching of the sealing strip and the moving glass is achieved through the bearing surface of the upper connecting component, and the installation of the sealing strip is achieved by the snap-fitting between the upper connecting component and the sealing strip; the curvature matching of the contoured body and the guide rail is achieved through the curvature of the contoured body itself, and the snap-fitting between the lower connecting component and the guide rail.

[0040] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the contoured body 3 includes a first section 3.1 located in the middle of the guide rail 1, a second section 3.2 connected to the end of the first section 3.1, and the arc curvature located at the roof is larger, so the arc of the first section 3.1 is set to be larger than the second section 3.2, so as to maintain the coupling degree with the guide rail 1.

[0041] As an improvement on the consistency of curvature between the profiling body 3 and the guide rail 1, a plurality of support blocks 3.3 are further provided at the bottom of the profiling body 3. The support blocks 3.3 extend along the width direction of the profiling body 3. The support blocks 3.3 are arranged in sequence at intervals along the length direction of the profiling body 3. The support blocks 3.3 abut against the guide rail 1. In this embodiment, the connecting portion may be a fastener extending vertically with respect to the end face normal of the profiling body 3. The support block 3.3 provides an upward supporting force in the normal direction of the end face, thereby driving the buckled end face to abut against the guide rail 1, increasing the tightness of the fitting between the lower connecting portion and the guide rail 1, and facilitating controlling the consistency of curvature between the profiling body 3 and the guide rail 1.

[0042] The height of the support block is adapted to the curvature of the roof and the sports glass, and is located where the curvature of the arc is larger to form an arch. The matching clearance between the contoured body 3 and the guide rail 1 and the sealing strip 2 is small. Optionally, the height of the support block 3.3 tends to decrease toward the second section 3.2, thereby increasing the tightness.

[0043] Optionally, the support block 3 . 3 may also extend to connect to a connection portion on one side to increase the structural strength of the connection portion and maintain the connection strength between the contoured body 3 and the sealing strip 2 and the guide rail 1 .

[0044] As an option, the connecting component 4 is arranged on the first section 3.1 and the second section 3.2, and the length of the connecting component 4 decreases toward the second section 3.2.

[0046] As an implementation mode of the connection part, a first hook part 2.1 is provided at the bottom of the sealing strip 2, and a second hook part 1.2 is provided on the outer wall of the guide rail 1, wherein the first hook part 2.1 is a convex part extending downward, and buckles for snap-fitting are provided on both sides of the convex part, and the end face of the first hook part 2.1 is an inclined surface, and the inner connection part of the upper connecting member 4.1 and the contoured body 3 is arranged in an inclined surface, thereby increasing the tightness of the fitting between the upper connecting part and the sealing strip 2, and in addition, the second hook part 1.2 is a buckle part arranged on the outside of the vertical boundary of the guide rail 1, and a buckle part formed on the inner side of the end of the supporting part 1.1.

[0047] The connecting component 4 comprises: an upper connecting component 4.1, the end surface of which forms a bearing surface, and the bearing surface is adapted to the curvature of the moving glass. The upper connecting component 4.1 and the first hook portion 2.1 are mutually snap-fitted, so as to stabilize the sealing strip and, by utilizing the material characteristics of the sealing strip, make the sealing strip match the curvature of the moving glass; a lower connecting component 4.2, which and the second hook portion 1.2 are mutually snap-fitted. The upper connecting component 4.1 and the lower connecting component 4.2 are arranged on the upper end surface of the profiling body 3, the upper connecting component 4.1 tightens the sealing strip 2 on the profiling body 3, and the lower connecting component 4.2 tightens the profiling body 3 on the guide rail 1, and the plurality of connecting components 4 further increase the adaptability of the curvature of the arc between the profiling body 3, the sealing strip 2 and the guide rail 1.

[0048] Specifically, the upper connecting member 4.1 and the lower connecting member 4.2 are arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the profiling body 3, and the upper connecting member 4.1 and the lower connecting member 4.2 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the profiling body 3. On one side, the lower connecting member 4.2 is engaged with a buckle portion arranged on the outer side of the vertical boundary of the guide rail 1, and on the other side, the lower connecting member 4.2 is engaged with a buckle portion formed on the inner side of the end of the supporting portion 1.1.

[0049] As a further improvement on the arrangement of the connection parts, the upper connection members 4.1 located on both sides of the profiling body 3 are staggered, and the lower connection members 4.2 located on both sides of the profiling body 3 are staggered, so that the connection parts are evenly distributed on both sides of the profiling body 3, thereby ensuring that each part on the profiling body 3 has a tightening effect on the seal and the guide rail 1, and the upper connection members 4.1 are densely arranged, thereby ensuring the matching degree and consistency of the arc curvature between the sealing strip 2 and the guide rail 1.

[0050] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, as a further improvement on the sealing strip 2, the sealing strip 2 includes a connecting body 2.2 and sealing bubbles 2.3 arranged on both sides of the connecting body 2.2, the connecting component 4 on the upper part of the profiling body 3 is snap-connected to the bottom of the connecting body 2.2, and the connecting body 2.2 is provided with an extended rib 2.4 toward the connecting part, the extended rib 2.4 is connected to the bottom of the sealing bubble 2.3 and covered on the outside of the connecting component 4, so that when the driving arm of the driving mechanism moves, the extended rib 2.4 on the sealing strip 2 is pressed against the profiling body 3, thereby increasing the stability of the sealing strip 2, and at the same time, in the assembled state, the upper connecting piece on one side is also abutted between the extended rib 2.4 and the connecting body 2.2, and the upper connecting piece on the other side is abutted on the connecting body, thereby further increasing the supporting effect of the upper connecting piece on the sealing strip, ensuring that the sealing strip matches the moving glass.
