Embodiment Construction

[0011] As shown in FIG. 1, a vehicle 10 has a door 12 with a glass window 14 mounted therein. The door 12 includes an outer panel 16 and a lintel 50 . In Figure 1, the term "sash" refers essentially to the portion 24 of the door 12 above the dotted line (labeled "B").

[0012] FIG. 2 shows a vehicle door 12 having an outer panel 16 covering an inner panel 18 . The window frame 24 is an integral part of the inner door panel 18 and can be welded together with the panel surface 18 or integrally formed with the panel surface 18 . The lintel 50 is shown in its exploded position, while it is shown assembled in FIG. 3 . Finally, the exterior trim molding 28 is shown in Figure 2, also in an exploded position.

[0013] Turning now to FIG. 3 , which shows the glazing 14 mounted in the glazing strip 26, the glazing strip 26 is mounted in the lintel 50 and held thereto by means of the glazing strip holder 52, which Is the first integral part of the lintel. The glass sealing strip hol...

Abstract

A door and window lintel for motor vehicle comprises a holding member for glass package strip, a holding part for exterior decoration and a holding structure with plural grooves for weather strip, wherein the holding structure holds the weather strip on the window lintel using the groove opened upwards and downwards and matching with the vehicle door and window frame under the condition that additional fastening device, such as machine fastening member or bonding agent, is not required.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to a door structure for a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Typically, the door and window lintels of motor vehicles serve several functions. These functions include: maintaining the exterior aesthetics of the uppermost portion of the door; maintaining the interior aesthetics of the upper door portion; providing a means for securing the glass window to the upper portion of the door; providing mounting and support for the primary door weather stripping. Of course, for a high volume motor vehicle, the above functions need to be accomplished with the least amount of material, least assembly time, lowest cost, and lowest possible complexity. U.S. Patent 6,641,204 discloses a molded-in mounting structure for a motor vehicle door that provides at least several of the functions listed above, but with the expected increase in cost and complexity due to the need for fasteners to secure the main stop Weather stripping...
