The guide rail structure 20 comprises a first guide rail part 201, a second guide rail part 202 and a third guide rail part 203 connected in sequence. The third guide rail part 203 is located on the side of the first guide rail part 201 away from the glass body 10. The first guide rail part 201, the second guide rail part 202 and the third guide rail part 203 form a receiving space 204. The first guide rail part 201 is provided with a first barb 210 on the side away from the glass body 10. The third guide rail part 203 is provided with a second barb 230 on the end away from the second guide rail part 202. The channel sealing strip 40 comprises a first sealing part 401 and a second sealing part 402 connected in sequence. The first sealing part 401 is located in the receiving space 204. The first sealing part 401 is provided with a first hook groove 411 and a second hook groove 412. The first hook groove 411 is buckled with the first barb 210. The second hook groove 412 is buckled with the second barb 230. Thus, the channel sealing strip 40 is limited by the guide rail structure 20 alone, preventing the channel sealing strip 40 from being separated. A decorative plate is not needed, and the assembly difficulty is reduced. The guide rail structure 20 is arranged on the side of the inner surface 103 of the glass body 10 away from the outer surface 101. The cover structure 30 comprises a first cover part 301. At least part of the first cover part 301 is formed between the glass body 10 and the first guide rail part 201. Thus, the guide rail structure 20 and the first cover part 301 are not protruded from the outer surface 101 of the glass body 10, which is beneficial to the design of the frameless door.
[0071] In addition, the channel sealing strip 40 in the embodiment can form a continuous seal between the connecting side surface 102 and the inner surface 103 of the glass body 10. The first cover part 301 can form a further seal between the channel sealing strip 40, the inner surface 103 of the glass body 10 and the first guide rail part 201. Thus, the sealing performance between the glass assembly 100 and the door window glass and the sealing performance of the glass assembly 100 can be improved, the possibility of water leakage of the vehicle 1000 is reduced, and the wind noise during the use of the vehicle 1000 is reduced. At the same time, the frameless design of the glass assembly 100 can further reduce the fitting gap between the glass assembly 100 and the door window glass, and further reduce the wind resistance and wind noise during the use of the vehicle 1000. Since the glass assembly 100 reduces the design of the decorative part, and the first cover part 301 and the guide rail structure 20 are not protruded from the outer surface 101 of the glass body 10, compared with the assembly thickness of 35 mm in the related art, the thickness of the glass assembly 100 provided in the application can be reduced to about 26 mm, so that the glass assembly 100 is more convenient to install in the vehicle. The thickness of the glass assembly 100 can refer to T1 shown in the following figure. Figure 4
[0072] In a possible embodiment, please refer toFigure 9 and Figure 10 The first barb 210 extends towards a direction away from the glass body 10, and the second barb 230 extends towards a direction close to the second guide rail part 202.
[0073] It can be understood that in the embodiment, the extending direction of the first barb 210 intersects with the extending direction of the second barb 230, and both the first barb 210 and the second barb 230 extend towards the inside of the accommodation space 204, so that the guide rail structure 20 and the mud groove sealing strip 40 can be tightly buckled, thereby further reducing the possibility of the mud groove sealing strip 40 being separated. Alternatively, the extending direction of the first barb 210 and the extending direction of the second barb 230 are perpendicular to each other.
[0074] The surface of the third guide rail part 203 towards the first guide rail part 201 side can be a continuously transitioned surface. In other words, the inner surface of the third guide rail part 203 is smooth, without protrusions and recess structures. The thickness of the guide rail structure 20 can be uniform. In other words, the thickness of the first guide rail part 201, the thickness of the second guide rail part 202 and the thickness of the third guide rail part 203 can be the same, or the difference between the thickness of the first guide rail part 201, the thickness of the second guide rail part 202 and the thickness of the third guide rail part 203 can be less than or equal to a thickness preset value. The thickness preset value can be 1mm.
[0075] By making the surface of the third guide rail part 203 towards the first guide rail part 201 side a continuously transitioned surface, the stress concentration area of the third guide rail part 203 can be reduced, which is more conducive to forming the guide rail structure 20 by an integral injection molding process, and the injection molding process of the guide rail structure 20 is easy to demold, which is conducive to production automation.
[0076] The first barb 210 is injection molded and fixed on one side of the first guide rail part 201. In other words, the first barb 210 is integrally connected with the first guide rail part 201, that is, the first barb 210 can be directly injection molded on the first guide rail part 201. The second barb 230 is injection molded and fixed on one end of the third guide rail part 203. In other words, the second barb 230 is integrally connected with the third guide rail part 203, that is, the second barb 230 can be directly injection molded on the third guide rail part 203.
[0077] It can be understood that the first guide rail part 201, the second guide rail part 202 and the third guide rail part 203, the first barb 210 and the third guide rail part 203 can be integrally injection molded to form the guide rail structure 20. By injection molding the first barb 210 to be fixed on one side of the first guide rail part 201 and the second barb 230 to be fixed on one end of the third guide rail part 203, the connection strength of the guide rail structure 20 can be improved, so that the first barb 210 and the second barb 230 are not easy to separate, thereby ensuring the reliability of the guide rail structure 20 for fixing the mud groove sealing strip 40.
[0078] Please refer to Figures 11 to 14 , Figure 11 for Figure 7 the partial enlarged view of the A area of the glass assembly 100 shown in FIG. 1, Figure 12 for Figure 8 the partial enlarged view of the B area of the glass assembly 100 shown in FIG. 1, Figure 13 for Figure 4 the structural view of the guide rail structure 20 in the glass assembly 100 shown in FIG. 1, Figure 14 for Figure 13 the partial enlarged view of the C area of the guide rail structure 20 shown in FIG. 1. The first guide rail part 201 includes a first sub-guide rail part 211 and a second sub-guide rail part 212 connected by bending, the second guide rail part 202 includes a third sub-guide rail part 221 and a fourth sub-guide rail part 222 connected by bending, the first sub-guide rail part 211, the second sub-guide rail part 212, the fourth sub-guide rail part 222 and the third sub-guide rail part 221 are connected in sequence, the second sub-guide rail part 212 is formed with the first barb 210, the first sub-guide rail part 211, the second sub-guide rail part 212, the fourth sub-guide rail part 222 and the third sub-guide rail part 221 form an injection molding groove 205, and the first edge cover part 301 is formed in the injection molding groove 205.
[0079] The embodiments of the present application do not make specific limitations on the bending angles between the first sub-guide rail part 211 and the second sub-guide rail part 212 and the bending angles between the third sub-guide rail part 221 and the fourth sub-guide rail part 222. In one possible embodiment, the bending angles between the first sub-guide rail part 211 and the second sub-guide rail part 212 can be close to 90°, and the bending angles between the third sub-guide rail part 221 and the fourth sub-guide rail part 222 can be close to 90°. The surface of the first guide rail part 201 formed by the first sub-guide rail part 211 and the second sub-guide rail part 212 towards one side of the glass body 10 is substantially L-shaped. The surface of the second guide rail part 202 formed by the third sub-guide rail part 221 and the fourth sub-guide rail part 222 towards one side of the glass body 10 is substantially L-shaped. The surface of the first guide rail part 201 towards one side of the glass body 10 and the surface of the second guide rail part 202 towards one side of the glass body 10 form a U-shaped injection molding groove 205.
[0080] It can be understood that in the embodiment, the injection molding groove 205 is formed between the surface of the side of the second guide rail part 202 facing the glass body 10 and the surface of the side of the first guide rail part 201 facing the glass body 10, and the connection between the first guide rail part 201, the first edge covering part 301 and the glass body 10 can be realized by forming the first edge covering part 301 in the injection molding groove 205. In the embodiment of forming the edge covering structure 30 by the injection molding process, the groove wall of the injection molding groove 205 can guide the edge covering flow and provide adhesion, so that the edge covering flow flows into the injection molding groove 205 and tightly adheres to the surface of the side of the guide rail structure 20 facing the glass body 10, thereby improving the sealing performance of the glass assembly 100. The formation of the injection molding groove 205 can improve the connection tightness of the edge covering structure 30 and the guide rail structure 20, reduce the possibility of separation between the guide rail structure 20 and the edge covering structure 30, further reduce wind noise, and also reduce the probability of water leakage.
[0081] In a possible embodiment, in the length direction of the guide rail structure 20, the second sub-guide rail part 212 is formed with a plurality of first barbs 210 arranged at intervals, and the third guide rail part 203 is formed with a continuous whole second barb 230.
[0082] The length direction of the guide rail structure 20 can refer to the Y-axis direction shown in Figure 13 In the embodiment, the second sub-guide rail part 212 of the first guide rail part 201 has first barbs 210 arranged at intervals and intermittently on the side away from the glass body 10. The first hook groove 411 in the drain sealing strip 40 which is buckled with the first barb 210 can be a whole first hook groove 411, or can be the same as the first barb 210, that is, the first hook groove 411 arranged at intervals and intermittently. The third guide rail part 203 is formed with a continuous whole second barb 230 at the end away from the second guide rail part 202, and the second hook groove 412 in the drain sealing strip 40 which is buckled with the second barb 230 can also be a continuous whole first hook groove 411.
[0083] In the length direction of the guide rail structure 20, the second sub-guide rail part 212 is formed with a plurality of first barbs 210 arranged at intervals, which is beneficial to form a demolding structure between the first barb 210 and the second guide rail part 202, and is beneficial to the production and manufacturing of the guide rail structure 20 when the guide rail structure 20 is formed by the injection molding process. In the length direction of the guide rail structure 20, the third guide rail part 203 is formed with a continuous whole second barb 230, which is beneficial to ensure the buckling effect between the guide rail structure 20 and the drain sealing strip 40, and improve the reliability of preventing the drain sealing strip 40 from being separated.
[0084] Please refer to Figure 11 and Figure 13In the length direction of the guide rail structure 20, the second sub-guide rail part 212 further has a plurality of demolding holes 206 arranged at intervals. The second sub-guide rail part 212 further has a connecting rib 207 formed on the side of the second sub-guide rail part 212 facing the glass body 10, the connecting rib 207 being arranged around the edges of the demolding holes 206 and being free of the glass body 10.
[0085] The demolding holes 206 include, but are not limited to, square holes, rectangular holes, circular holes or wedge-shaped holes. In the embodiment of the present application, the demolding holes 206 are rectangular. The demolding holes 206 extend through the second sub-guide rail part 212. It can be understood that one side opening of the demolding holes 206 is flush with the surface of the side of the second sub-guide rail part 212 facing away from the glass body 10, and the other side opening of the demolding holes 206 is flush with the surface of the side of the second sub-guide rail part 212 facing the glass body 10. In the length direction of the guide rail structure 20, the plurality of demolding holes 206 arranged at intervals can correspond to the plurality of first barbs 210 arranged at intervals one by one. It can be understood that the second sub-guide rail part 212 has the demolding holes 206 arranged at the positions corresponding to the positions where the first barbs 210 are arranged. In the embodiment of the present application, the connecting rib 207 has four connecting ribs. The four connecting ribs 207 are sequentially connected end to end to surround the edges of the side opening of the square demolding holes 206 facing the glass body 10. The connecting rib 207 being free of the glass body 10 means that there is no gap or almost no gap (allowing for certain production errors) between the connecting rib 207 and the inner surface 103 of the glass body 10.
[0086] By having the second sub-guide rail part 212 further have a plurality of demolding holes 206 arranged at intervals, and by having the connecting rib 207 formed on the side of the second sub-guide rail part 212 facing the glass body 10, the connecting rib 207 being arranged around the edges of the demolding holes 206, it is beneficial to ensure the successful demolding of the guide rail structure 20 when the guide rail structure 20 is formed by the injection molding process. By having the connecting rib 207 being free of the glass body 10, it can play a role of sealing the material, so as to avoid the edge covering material flowing into the accommodation space 204 of the guide rail structure 20 from the demolding holes 206 when the edge covering structure 30 is formed by the injection molding process.
[0087] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 7 The surface of the side of the second guide rail part 202 facing away from the first guide rail part 201 and the surface of the side of the third guide rail part 203 facing away from the first guide rail part 201 form the appearance surface of the guide rail structure 20, and the appearance surface is subjected to sandblasting or skin treatment. In the embodiment of the present application, the appearance surface of the guide rail structure 20 can refer to a1 shown in FIG. 1. Figure 7
[0088] In the present application, since the guide rail structure 20 is arranged on the inner surface 103 of the glass body 10 away from the outer surface 101, the surface of the second guide rail portion 202 away from the first guide rail portion 201 and the surface of the third guide rail portion 203 away from the first guide rail portion 201 are visible from the inside of the vehicle 1000, thus the appearance surface of the guide rail structure 20 is subjected to sandblasting or skin treatment, which can cover the injection molding defects of the appearance surface of the guide rail structure 20 and ensure the appearance beautification effect when the glass assembly 100 is viewed from the inside of the vehicle 1000.
[0089] Please refer to Figure 9 and Figure 15 , Figure 15 for Figure 9 the cross-sectional view of the sump seal strip 40 in the glass assembly 100. The first sealing portion 401 includes the first sub-sealing portion 413, the second sub-sealing portion 414 and the third sub-sealing portion 415 connected in sequence. At least part of the first sub-sealing portion 413 abuts against the side of the first guide rail portion 201 away from the glass body 10 and has the first hook groove 411. At least part of the second sub-sealing portion 414 abuts against the second guide rail portion 202. At least part of the third sub-sealing portion 415 abuts against the side of the third guide rail portion 203 facing the first guide rail portion 201 and has the second hook groove 412.
[0090] It can be understood that the first sealing portion 401 of the sump seal strip 40 is accommodated in the accommodation space 204 of the guide rail structure 20 and contacts the inner surfaces of the first guide rail portion 201, the second guide rail portion 202 and the third guide rail portion 203. Through the structural design of the first sealing portion 401, the first sealing portion 401 can contact the inner surfaces of the guide rail structure 20 when it is accommodated in the accommodation space 204 of the guide rail structure 20, which can further improve the positioning and fixing effect of the guide rail structure 20 on the sump seal strip 40.
[0091] The second sealing portion 402 includes the fourth sub-sealing portion 416 and the fifth sub-sealing portion 417 connected in sequence. The fourth sub-sealing portion 416 is connected between the first sealing portion 401 and the fifth sub-sealing portion 417. At least part of the fourth sub-sealing portion 416 extends towards the direction close to the outer surface 101 of the glass body 10. At least part of the fifth sub-sealing portion 417 extends towards the direction close to the third guide rail portion 203.
[0092] The application does not make specific limitation on the bending angle between the fourth sub-sealing part 416 and the fifth sub-sealing part 417. In a possible embodiment, the bending angle between the fourth sub-sealing part 416 and the fifth sub-sealing part 417 can be less than 90°. It can be understood that the second sealing part 402 formed by the fourth sub-sealing part 416 and the fifth sub-sealing part 417 is approximately V-shaped. The V-shaped second sealing part 402 is formed by bending the fourth sub-sealing part 416 and the fifth sub-sealing part 417 connected to each other, which is conducive to tightly abutting the second sealing part 402 between the connecting side surface 102 of the glass body 10 and the door window glass after the glass assembly 100 is installed, so that the connecting side surface 102 of the glass body 10 and the door window glass can achieve the effect of double sealing, further improving the sealing effect.
[0093] Further, the mud channel sealing strip 40 further comprises a first supporting part 418 and a second supporting part 419. The first supporting part 418 is connected to one end of the third sub-sealing part 415 away from the second sub-sealing part 414 and extends towards the side where the outer surface 101 of the glass body 10 is located. The second supporting part 419 is arranged on the third sub-sealing part 415 and extends towards the side where the outer surface 101 of the glass body 10 is located.
[0094] The first supporting part 418 and the second supporting part 419 can extend linearly, obliquely or curvedly. The first supporting part 418 and the second supporting part 419 can be parallel or approximately parallel to each other. In the embodiment, the first supporting part 418 and the second supporting part 419 of the mud channel sealing strip 40 can achieve the supporting effect on the door window glass after installation.
[0095] Please refer to Figure 16 and Figure 17 , Figure 16 for Figure 6 the structure diagram of the rabbet structure 30 in the glass assembly 100 shown in FIG. 1, Figure 17 for Figure 5 the partial enlarged diagram of the D area of the glass assembly 100 shown in FIG. 1. The rabbet structure 30 further comprises a second rabbet part 302, a third rabbet part 303 and a fourth rabbet part 304. The first rabbet part 301, the second rabbet part 302, the third rabbet part 303 and the fourth rabbet part 304 are sequentially and bently connected. One end of the third rabbet part 303 close to the second rabbet part 302 is provided with a first connecting groove 331 or a first extending part, which is used for cooperating with the upper water cutting sealing strip of the sheet metal assembly 200. One end of the third rabbet part 303 close to the fourth rabbet part 304 is provided with a second connecting groove 332 or a second extending part, which is used for cooperating with the lower water cutting sealing strip of the sheet metal assembly 200.
[0096] In the embodiment, the first connecting groove 331 is arranged at one end of the third wrapping edge portion 303 close to the second wrapping edge portion 302, and the second extending portion 332 is arranged at one end of the third wrapping edge portion 303 close to the fourth wrapping edge portion 304. In the embodiment, the upper water-cut sealing strip of the sheet metal assembly 200 has an extending portion capable of cooperating with the first connecting groove 331, and the lower water-cut sealing strip has a connecting groove capable of cooperating with the second extending portion 332. In this way, the concave-convex cooperation between the third wrapping edge portion 303 and the upper water-cut sealing strip and the concave-convex cooperation between the third wrapping edge portion 303 and the lower water-cut sealing strip are achieved, which can improve the connection tightness of the wrapping edge structure 30 and the upper water-cut sealing strip and the lower water-cut sealing strip, and ensure the sealing effect between the second wrapping edge portion 302 of the wrapping edge structure 30 and the sheet metal assembly 200 and the sealing effect between the fourth wrapping edge portion 304 of the wrapping edge structure 30 and the sheet metal assembly 200.
[0097] The upper water-cut sealing strip can be sleeved on the top of the body sheet metal, and the lower water-cut sealing strip can be sleeved on the bottom of the body sheet metal. After the glass assembly 100 is installed on the sheet metal assembly 200, the upper water-cut sealing strip is clamped between the top of the body sheet metal and the second wrapping edge portion 302 of the wrapping edge structure 30, and the lower water-cut sealing strip is clamped between the bottom of the body sheet metal and the fourth wrapping edge portion 304 of the wrapping edge structure 30.

The foam strip 60 is arranged on the second wrapping edge portion 302 to form a seal between the second wrapping edge portion 302 and the upper water-cut sealing strip.
[0099] The material of the insert structure 50 can be plastic. The insert structure 50 and the wrapping edge structure 30 can be integrally connected. In a possible embodiment, the glass body 10, the guide rail structure 20, and the insert structure 50 can be placed in an assembly mold, and the wrapping edge structure 30 is formed by an injection molding process in the assembly mold. In this way, the glass body 10, the guide rail structure 20, and the insert structure 50 are connected as a whole by the wrapping edge structure 30 to form a multi-component integrated glass assembly 100. The material of the foam strip 60 can be Ethylene Propylene Diene Monomer (EPDM). The foam strip 60 is installed between the wrapping edge structure 30 and the upper water-cut sealing strip of the sheet metal assembly 200, and the foam strip 60 can be attached to the flat surface of the wrapping edge structure 30 to play a sealing role and prevent wind noise and water.
[0100] In one possible embodiment, the insert structure 50 is provided with a limiting boss 501. The counter-piece, i.e. the upper water-cut seal, is provided with a groove capable of cooperating with the limiting boss 501. In this way, the insert structure 50 cooperates with the upper water-cut seal, so as to avoid the upper water-cut seal from being separated from the edge-covering structure 30 under the action of an external force.
[0101] By providing the insert structure 50, the tightness of the cooperation between the edge-covering structure 30 and the upper water-cut seal can be further improved, the upper water-cut seal can be limited and fixed, and the movement or separation of the upper water-cut seal can be avoided. By providing the foam strip 60, the sealing between the second edge-covering part 302 and the upper water-cut seal can be further formed, and the sealing effect between the second edge-covering part 302 and the body sheet metal can be further improved.
[0102] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figures 17 to 19 , Figure 18 for the structure diagram of the connecting structure 70 in the glass assembly 100 shown in Figure 6 . Figure 19 for the structure diagram of the connecting structure 70 in the glass assembly 100 shown in Figure 5 . In the length direction of the guide rail structure 20, one end of the guide rail structure 20 is provided with a round hole 280 and a guide column 281. The other end of the guide rail structure 20 is provided with a connecting nut 282. The round hole 280 is used for connecting and cooperating with the sheet metal assembly 200, and the guide column 281 is used for positioning and cooperating with the sheet metal assembly 200. The connecting nut 282 is used for connecting and cooperating with the sheet metal assembly 200.

The plastic nail column 701 is arranged on the third edge-covering part 303, and the spring clamp 702 is arranged on the plastic nail column 701. The spring clamp 702 is used for connecting and cooperating with the sheet metal assembly 200.
[0103] In the structure diagram, the connecting structure 70 is arranged on the inner surface of the edge-covering structure 30, i.e. the side of the edge-covering structure 30 facing the sheet metal assembly 200. The plastic nail column 701 of the connecting structure 70 can be bonded to the edge-covering structure 30 by primer. The material of the plastic nail column 701 includes but is not limited to PA6+30GF, polyoxymethylene (POM), and PP+30GF. The material of the spring clamp 702 can be stainless steel SUS430.
[0104] In a possible embodiment, the plastic pin post 701 and the overmold structure 30 can be integrally connected.

The spring clip 702 can be installed on the plastic pin post 701 after the plastic pin post 701 and the overmold structure 30 are integrally injection molded. The connecting structure 70 can play an auxiliary positioning role when the glass assembly 100 and the sheet metal assembly 200 are assembled.
[0105] The rail structure 20 is provided with a connecting nut 282. The connecting nut 282 can be made of copper or stainless steel. The connecting nut 282 is placed in a rail mold before the rail structure 20 is formed as a single product, and is integrally injection molded. The round hole 280 at the upper end of the rail structure 20 is used to facilitate locking of the glass assembly 100 on the sheet metal assembly 200 by screws during operations in a main factory. Optionally, the hole matched with the round hole 280 of the sheet metal assembly 200 is a square hole, and the square hole of the sheet metal assembly 200 is provided with a metal sheet with a threaded hole for locking by screws during operations in the main factory. The guide post 281 beside the round hole 280 of the rail structure 20 serves as a main positioning. The guide post 281 plays a guiding role and a pre-fixing role before the glass assembly 100 is installed on the sheet metal assembly 200. It can be understood that the assembly scheme of the glass assembly 100 is realized by positioning and connecting the guide post 281 on the rail structure 20, the connecting nut 282 on the rail structure 20 serves as auxiliary positioning and further connection, the spring clip 702 of the connecting structure 70 and the sheet metal assembly 200 are connected again to ensure the connection reliability, and the round hole 280 at the upper end of the rail structure 20 facilitates locking of the sheet metal assembly 200 by screws in the main factory.
[0106] In addition, as shown in Figure 20 The application further provides a preparation method of the glass assembly 100. The preparation method of the glass assembly 100 is used for preparing the glass assembly 100 described in any of the above embodiments. The preparation method of the glass assembly 100 includes the following steps S11 and S12.
[0107] S11: Placing the glass body 10 and the rail structure 20 in an assembly mold.
