Detailed Implementation

[0044] The following are preferred embodiments of this application. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of this application, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of this application.

[0045] Before introducing the technical solution of this application, let's go over the technical issues in related technologies in detail.

[0046] In related technologies, water deflectors are designed to guide water droplets. However, water often contains dust, dirt, and other debris, which can accumulate on the deflectors over time. This can damage the deflector's guiding structure, causing water droplets to still come into contact with electrical components in the engine compartment, resulting in electrical damage.

[0047] Furthermore, because some water can accumulate in the mounting slots of the stop strip, it is prone to freezing in winter when the temperature is below 0°C. This freezing can cause vibrations and impacts with the cover plate during vehicle operation, resulting in abnormal noise. New energy vehicles, on the other hand, are driven by electric motors, which produce less noise during vehicle operation, making the cabin relatively quiet and less prone to hearing abnormal noise.

[0048] In view of this, in order to solve the above problems, please refer to the following: Figures 1-5 This embodiment provides an edge strip 1, which is applied to a vehicle. The vehicle includes a glass 21, a stop strip 22, and a body panel 23. The stop strip 22 is disposed on one side of the glass 21 and is used to block liquid from flowing into the electrical components inside the vehicle. The body panel 23 surrounds at least one of the remaining sides of the glass 21. The glass 21 includes an outer surface 211 and an inner surface 212 that are disposed opposite to each other.

[0049] The edge banding strip 1 is disposed between the glass 21 and the body panel 23. The edge banding strip 1 includes a first surface 11 and a second surface 12 disposed opposite to each other. The first surface 11 abuts against the inner surface 212, and the second surface 12 abuts against the body panel 23. The end of the edge banding strip 1 near the stop strip 22 is provided with a first liquid blocking part 13. The first liquid blocking part 13 is disposed on the second surface 12 and is used to block the liquid located on the edge banding strip 1 from flowing to the stop strip 22.

[0050] The edge strip 1 is applied to the glass assembly 21, which includes glass 21. The glass 21 can be a windshield 21, side window glass 21, corner window glass 21, rear windshield 21, etc. of a vehicle. Preferably, the glass 21 is the windshield 21 of a vehicle. The glass assembly 21 is applied to a vehicle, which includes a body. The glass assembly 21 is located at an opening in the body, and multiple body panels 23 are used to form the body.

[0051] Specifically, the glass 21 includes a top edge and a bottom edge disposed opposite to each other, and a side edge connecting the top edge and the bottom edge. An edge banding strip 1 is disposed on the top edge and the side edge of the glass 21. A stop strip 22 is disposed on the bottom edge of the glass 21. The stop strip 22 can also be understood as a water-blocking strip, used to prevent water from flowing into electrical components inside the vehicle. These electrical components can be electrical elements such as wires or circuit boards. For example, if electrical components are located in the vehicle's engine compartment, the stop strip 22 is used to prevent liquid from flowing into the engine compartment to protect the electrical components. A body panel 23 is disposed on the top and side edge of the glass 21, and the edge banding strip 1 fills the gap between the glass 21 and the body panel 23; in other words, the edge banding strip 1 fills the gap between the glass 21 and the body panel 23.

[0052] Glass 21 includes an outer surface 211 and an inner surface 212. The outer surface 211 is the surface of glass 21 that faces and contacts the outside world, and the inner surface 212 is the surface of glass 21 that faces and contacts the interior space of the vehicle. The edge strip 1 includes a first surface 11 and a second surface 12. The first surface 11 abuts against the inner surface 212. For example, the first surface 11 is connected to the inner surface 212 by an adhesive, i.e., the first surface 11 and the inner surface 212 are bonded together. The second surface 12 abuts against the body panel 23. For example, the connection between the second surface 12 and the body panel 23 can be an adhesive connection, a snap-fit ​​connection, or a threaded connection, etc.

[0053] There is a gap between the edge banding strip 1 and the stop strip 22. The material of the edge banding strip 1 is selected from at least one of TPE, EPDM, and PVC. The edge banding strip 1 can be prepared by injection molding and / or extrusion. The edge banding strip 1 is provided with a first liquid-blocking part 13. For example, the first liquid-blocking part 13 is a boss. The first liquid-blocking part 13 is an integral structural component with the edge banding strip 1. The first liquid-blocking part 13 is provided on the second surface 12, or it can be understood that the first liquid-blocking part 13 is provided on the side of the edge banding strip 1 facing away from the glass 21, or the first liquid-blocking part 13 is provided facing the body panel 23.

[0054] In summary, this embodiment effectively prevents the liquid from flowing from the edge strip 1 to the stop strip 22 by providing a first liquid-blocking part 13 at the end of the edge strip 1. This avoids the liquid from dripping from the stop strip 22 onto the electrical components inside the vehicle, reducing the risk of electrical component leakage and damage. It also avoids the risk of abnormal noise caused by liquid accumulating on the stop strip 22 and freezing. This improves the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0055] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2 In one embodiment, the first liquid-blocking portion 13 extends along the length direction of the edging strip 1. By extending the first liquid-blocking portion 13 along the length direction of the edging strip 1, this embodiment allows the liquid on the edging strip 1 to slide more smoothly along the first liquid-blocking portion 13, which helps the first liquid-blocking portion 13 guide the liquid to flow in a preset direction and better prevent the liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22.

[0056] And / or, the first liquid-blocking portion 13 is inclined. For example, the first liquid-blocking portion 13 is inclined in a direction away from the stop bar 22. Another example is that the first liquid-blocking portion 13 is inclined in a direction closer to the stop bar 22. Yet another example is that the first liquid-blocking portion 13 has a bend, which is composed of inclined segments with different inclination directions; furthermore, the number of bends is at least one. In this embodiment, by inclinedly arranging the first liquid-blocking portion 13, the first liquid-blocking portion 13 guides the liquid to flow in a predetermined direction, thereby better preventing the liquid from flowing onto the stop bar 22.

[0057] And / or, there is a gap between the stop strip 22 and the first liquid-blocking portion 13. Specifically, there is a gap between the first liquid-blocking portion 13 and the stop strip 22 along the length direction of the stop strip 22. This embodiment further blocks liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22 by spaced the first liquid-blocking portion 13 and the stop strip 22, further reducing the probability of liquid flowing onto the stop strip 22, thereby further improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0058] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2In one embodiment, the first liquid-blocking portion 13 includes a first portion 131 and a second portion 132 disposed along the length direction of the edge strip 1. The first portion 131 is farther away from the stop strip 22 than the second portion 132. The first portion 131 is inclined toward the stop strip 22, and the second portion 132 is inclined away from the stop strip 22.

[0059] The first part 131 connects to the second part 132, and the first part 131 and the second part 132 are arranged at an angle. Optionally, the angle between the first part 131 and the second part 132 is an obtuse angle. For example, the stop strip 22 is located at the bottom edge of the glass 21, and the first liquid-blocking part 13 is located on the edge strip 1 on the side of the glass 21. The first liquid-blocking part 13 is provided at the bottom end of the edge strip 1, and the first part 131 and the second part 132 are arranged in a top-to-bottom direction.

[0060] Specifically, the liquid located on the edge strip 1 first flows to the first part 131 of the first liquid blocking part 13, and then flows from the first part 131 of the first liquid blocking part 13 to the second part 132 of the first liquid blocking part 13, so that the first liquid blocking part 13 guides the liquid to flow away from the stop strip 22.

[0061] In summary, this embodiment, by setting a first part 131 and a second part 132 with different inclination angles on the edge strip 1, changes the flow direction and flow speed of the liquid, thereby better guiding the liquid to flow away from the stop strip 22 and better blocking the liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22. This avoids the accumulation of liquid on the stop strip 22 and also prevents the liquid from dripping from the stop strip 22 onto the electrical components inside the vehicle, thus improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0062] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2 In one embodiment, the first portion 131 is bent to connect to the second portion 132, and the surface of the first portion 131 facing away from the first liquid-blocking portion 13 is an arc-shaped surface.

[0063] The first part 131 has a raised arc-shaped surface. In this embodiment, by making the first part 131 an arc-shaped surface, the frictional loss between the liquid and the first liquid-blocking part 13 is reduced, allowing the liquid to retain more kinetic energy, which is beneficial for better guiding the liquid to flow away from the stop bar 22.

[0064] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2 In one embodiment, there is a gap between the second portion 132 and the stop strip 22.

[0065] Specifically, a gap exists between the second portion 132 and the stop strip 22 along the length of the stop strip 22. This embodiment further reduces the probability of liquid flowing onto the stop strip 22 by defining the position of the second portion 132 and the stop strip 22, thereby further improving vehicle reliability and user experience.

[0066] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2 In one embodiment, the length of the first portion 131 is less than the length of the second portion 132. Optionally, the length ratio of the first portion 131 to the second portion 132 is 1:(2-8), specifically, 1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:5, 1:6, 1:7, or 1:8, etc. This embodiment ensures that the first liquid-blocking portion 13 can guide the liquid to flow away from the stop bar 22 by limiting the length of the first portion 131 to be less than the length of the second portion 132, thereby reducing the probability of liquid flowing onto the stop bar 22 and improving the reliability of the first liquid-blocking portion 13.

[0067] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2 In one embodiment, the second surface 12 is recessed with a first liquid guiding groove 14 that connects to the first liquid blocking part 13. The first liquid blocking part 13 and the first liquid guiding groove 14 are arranged along the width direction of the edge strip 1, and the first liquid blocking part 13 is closer to the stop strip 22 than the first liquid guiding groove 14. The first liquid guiding groove 14 is used to guide the liquid flow from the first liquid blocking part 13.

[0068] Specifically, some of the liquid located on the edge strip 1 can flow directly into the first liquid guiding groove 14. Another part of the liquid located on the edge strip 1 first flows to the first liquid blocking part 13, the first liquid blocking part 13 changes the flow direction of the liquid, and then flows from the first liquid blocking part 13 to the first liquid guiding groove 14, thereby guiding the liquid to flow away from the stop strip 22.

[0069] In summary, this embodiment, by setting the first liquid guide groove 14, further guides the liquid to flow away from the stop bar 22, further reducing the probability of the liquid flowing onto the stop bar 22, and further improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0070] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2 In one embodiment, the edge strip 1 has a confluence surface 15 that bends and connects the first liquid blocking part 13 and the first liquid guiding groove 14. The extension direction of the confluence surface 15 is parallel to the length direction of the stop strip 22. The confluence surface 15 is used to collect liquid from the first liquid blocking part 13 and the first liquid guiding groove 14.

[0071] The confluence surface 15 extends in the same direction as the width of the edging strip 1. A gap exists between the confluence surface 15 and the stop strip 22. The confluence surface 15 can also be understood as the end face of the edging strip 1. Specifically, the liquid located between the first liquid-blocking portion 13 and the first liquid-guiding groove 14 flows to the confluence surface 15, where it gathers and drips, thus preventing the liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22.

[0072] In addition, after long-term use, the dust, dirt and other impurities that are often mixed with the liquid tend to accumulate on the confluence surface 15, making it easier for the liquid to collect and drip from the confluence surface 15, further preventing the liquid from flowing onto the stop bar 22.

[0073] In summary, by providing the confluence surface 15, this embodiment further prevents liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22, further reduces the probability of liquid flowing onto the stop strip 22, and further improves the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0074] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2 In one embodiment, the vehicle further includes a cover plate 24, which is disposed between the stop strip 22 and the electrical component. The cover plate 24 is provided with a second liquid guide groove, and the first liquid guide groove 14 is provided corresponding to the second liquid guide groove. The second liquid guide groove is used to contain liquid from the first liquid guide groove 14.

[0075] One side of the cover plate 24 abuts against the stop strip 22 and is positioned above the electrical components. For example, the cover plate 24 abuts against the stop strip 22 and is positioned on top of the engine compartment. The cover plate 24 is used to prevent liquid from flowing into the electrical components inside the vehicle. Optionally, a second liquid guide groove is provided at the edge of the cover plate 24.

[0076] The first liquid guiding groove 14 corresponds to the second liquid guiding groove, or it can be understood that the first liquid guiding groove 14 is located above the second liquid guiding groove. Specifically, under the action of gravity, the liquid located in the first liquid guiding groove 14 flows to the second liquid guiding groove, and then the liquid flows out along the second liquid guiding groove, thereby preventing the liquid from flowing onto the stop bar 22 and also preventing the liquid from flowing onto the electrical components.

[0077] In summary, this embodiment guides the liquid flow into the second liquid guide by aligning the first liquid guide groove 14 with the second liquid guide groove, further preventing the liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22, further reducing the probability of the liquid flowing onto the stop strip 22, and further improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0078] Please refer to this as well. Figures 1-2In one embodiment, the second surface 12 is recessed with a third liquid guiding groove 16 that communicates with the first liquid guiding groove 14. The third liquid guiding groove 16 and the first liquid guiding groove 14 are arranged along the length direction of the binding strip 1. The third liquid guiding groove 16 is farther away from the stop strip 22 than the first liquid guiding groove 14. The third liquid guiding groove 16 is connected to the first liquid blocking part 13. The third liquid guiding groove 16 is used to guide the liquid located on the binding strip 1 to flow to the first liquid blocking part 13 and the first liquid guiding groove 14.

[0079] The third liquid guiding groove 16 extends along the length of the binding strip 1. The sidewall of the third liquid guiding groove 16 is connected to the first liquid blocking part 13. The third liquid guiding groove 16 and the first liquid blocking part 13 are arranged along the length of the binding strip 1, and the third liquid guiding groove 16 is farther away from the stop strip 22 than the first liquid blocking part 13. Specifically, the liquid located on the binding strip 1 flows into the third liquid guiding groove 16, and then the liquid flows along the third liquid guiding groove 16 to the first liquid blocking part 13 and the first liquid guiding groove 14.

[0080] In summary, this embodiment, by providing a third liquid guide groove 16, facilitates the collection of more liquid located on the edge strip 1, guides more liquid from the third liquid guide groove 16 to the first liquid blocking part 13 and the first liquid guide groove 14, further prevents liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22, further reduces the probability of liquid flowing onto the stop strip 22, and further improves the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0081] Please refer to this as well. Figures 3-10 In one embodiment, the first surface 11 is provided with a second liquid blocking part 17, which is disposed near the stop strip 22 and connected to the glass 21. The second liquid blocking part 17 is used to guide the liquid located on the edge strip 1 to flow toward the direction close to the outer surface 211.

[0082] The edging strip 1 is provided with a second liquid-blocking portion 17. For example, the second liquid-blocking portion 17 is a boss, a bevel, or a groove. The second liquid-blocking portion 17 is an integral structural component with the edging strip 1. The second liquid-blocking portion 17 is provided on the first surface 11, or it can be understood that the second liquid-blocking portion 17 is provided on the side of the edging strip 1 facing the glass 21. Optionally, the second liquid-blocking portion 17 is connected to the outer surface 211 of the glass 21; or, the second liquid-blocking portion 17 is connected to the peripheral side surface of the glass 21. Specifically, liquid located on the edging strip 1 flows through the second liquid-blocking portion 17 toward the direction close to the outer surface 211 of the glass 21, so that the second liquid-blocking portion 17 guides the liquid to flow away from the stop strip 22.

[0083] In summary, this embodiment provides a second liquid-blocking part 17 near the stop strip 22 on the edge strip 1, guiding the liquid to flow towards the outer surface 211. This effectively blocks the liquid from flowing from the edge strip 1 to the stop strip 22, further preventing liquid from dripping from the stop strip 22 onto the electrical components inside the vehicle, reducing the risk of electrical component leakage damage. It also further avoids the risk of liquid accumulating on the stop strip 22 and causing abnormal noise after the liquid freezes, thereby further improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0084] Please refer to this as well. Figures 3-10 In one embodiment, the first surface 11 is recessed with a fourth liquid guiding groove 18, and the fourth liquid guiding groove 18 is formed between the peripheral side surface of the glass 21 and the edge strip 1. The fourth liquid guiding groove 18 extends along the length direction of the edge strip 1, and the second liquid blocking part 17 is disposed in the fourth liquid guiding groove 18. The fourth liquid guiding groove 18 is used to guide the liquid located on the edge strip 1 to flow to the second liquid blocking part 17.

[0085] At least a portion of the second liquid-blocking part 17 is provided within the fourth liquid-guiding groove 18. For example, the second liquid-blocking part 17 is provided on the bottom wall of the fourth liquid-guiding groove 18, or, for example, the second liquid-blocking part 17 is connected to the side wall of the fourth liquid-guiding groove 18. Specifically, the liquid located on the edge strip 1 flows into the fourth liquid-guiding groove 18, and then the liquid flows along the fourth liquid-guiding groove 18 to the second liquid-blocking part 17.

[0086] In summary, this embodiment, by providing a fourth liquid guide groove 18, facilitates the collection of more liquid located on the edge strip 1, guides more liquid to flow from the fourth liquid guide groove 18 to the second liquid blocking part 17, further prevents liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22, further reduces the probability of liquid flowing onto the stop strip 22, and further improves the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0087] Please refer to this as well. Figures 3-10 In one embodiment, the second liquid-blocking portion 17 includes a third surface 171 and a fourth surface 172 disposed opposite to each other, the third surface 171 abutting against the peripheral side surface of the glass 21, and the fourth surface 172 abutting against the vehicle body panel 23.

[0088] The second liquid-blocking portion 17 fills the space between the glass 21 and the body panel 23, eliminating any gap between them. The third surface 171 abuts against the peripheral side surface of the glass 21; for example, the third surface 171 directly abuts against the peripheral side surface of the glass 21; or, the third surface 171 is connected to the peripheral side surface of the glass 21 by an adhesive, i.e., the third surface 171 is bonded to the peripheral side surface of the glass 21. The fourth surface 172 abuts against the body panel 23; for example, the fourth surface 172 directly abuts against the body panel 23; or, the fourth surface 172 can be connected to the body panel 23 by adhesive bonding, snap-fit ​​connection, or threaded connection, etc.

[0089] In summary, by defining the third surface 171 and the fourth surface 172, this embodiment ensures that there is no gap between the glass 21 and the body panel 23, which reduces the accumulation of liquid in the second liquid blocking part 17 and helps guide the liquid to flow towards the outer surface 211. This effectively blocks the liquid from flowing from the edge strip 1 to the stop strip 22, improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0090] Please refer to this as well. Figures 3-10 In one embodiment, the second liquid-blocking part 17 includes a third part 173 and a fourth part 174 disposed along the length direction of the edge strip 1. The bottom wall of the fourth liquid guiding groove 18 is bent to connect the third part 173. The third part 173 is farther away from the stop strip 22 than the fourth part 174. The third part 173 is inclined in a direction away from the body panel 23. The fourth part 174 abuts against the glass 21.

[0091] The third part 173 connects to the fourth part 174, and the third part 173 and the fourth part 174 are set at an angle. Optionally, the angle between the third part 173 and the fourth part 174 is an obtuse angle. For example, the stop strip 22 is located at the bottom edge of the glass 21, the second liquid-blocking part 17 is located on the edge strip 1 located on the side of the glass 21, the second liquid-blocking part 17 is provided on the part of the edge strip 1 near the stop strip 22, and the third part 173 and the fourth part 174 are arranged in a downward direction. The third part 173 can also be understood as a slope, and the fourth part 174 abuts against the peripheral surface of the glass 21.

[0092] Specifically, the liquid in the fourth liquid guide tank 18 first flows to the third part 173 of the second liquid blocking part 17, and then flows from the third part 173 of the second liquid blocking part 17 to the fourth part 174 of the second liquid blocking part 17, so that the second liquid blocking part 17 guides the liquid to flow toward the direction close to the outer surface 211 of the glass 21.

[0093] In summary, this embodiment, by providing a third part 173 and a fourth part 174 arranged at an angle on the edge strip 1, with the fourth part 174 connecting the glass 21 and the stop strip 22, better guides the liquid to flow towards the outer surface 211 of the glass 21, and better reduces the probability of the liquid flowing onto the stop strip 22. This not only avoids the accumulation of liquid on the stop strip 22, but also prevents the liquid from dripping from the stop strip 22 onto the electrical components inside the vehicle, further improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0094] Please refer to this as well. Figures 3-10 In one embodiment, the vehicle further includes a cover plate 24 disposed between the stop strip 22 and the electrical component, the cover plate 24 abutting against the fourth portion 174 and the glass 21, the fourth portion 174 being flush with the outer surface 211.

[0095] One side of the cover plate 24 abuts against the stop strip 22 and is positioned above the electrical components. For example, the cover plate 24 abuts against the stop strip 22 and is positioned on top of the engine compartment. The cover plate 24 is used to prevent liquid from flowing into the electrical components inside the vehicle. The cover plate 24 overlaps the fourth part 174 and the outer surface 211 of the glass 21 to form a sealed structure. Specifically, the lip of the cover plate 24 overlaps the fourth part 174 and the outer surface 211 of the glass 21.

[0096] Specifically, under the action of gravity, the liquid located in the fourth liquid guide groove 18 and the outer surface 211 of the glass 21 flows to the cover plate 24 through the second liquid blocking part 17. Then, the liquid flows out along the cover plate 24, thereby preventing the liquid from flowing onto the stop strip 22 and also preventing the liquid from flowing onto the electrical components.

[0097] In summary, by having the cover plate 24 abut against the fourth part 174 and the glass 21, and by making the fourth part 174 flush with the outer surface 211 of the glass 21, this embodiment can reduce the accumulation of liquid in the fourth part 174 and the glass 21, which is beneficial for guiding the liquid to flow towards the cover plate 24, effectively blocking the liquid from flowing from the edge strip 1 to the stop strip 22, thereby improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0098] Please refer to Figure 10 In one embodiment, the included angle α between the third part 173 and the bottom wall of the fourth liquid guiding tank 18 satisfies the following condition: included angle α ≥ 120°.

[0099] The included angle α can be exemplified by 120°, 130°, 140°, 150°, 160°, or 170°, etc. In this embodiment, by limiting the included angle α to ≥120°, the liquid located in the fourth liquid guiding groove 18 is guided to flow better, thereby improving the guiding effect of the second liquid blocking part 17.

[0100] Please refer to Figure 10 In one embodiment, along the thickness direction of the edge strip 1, the vertical distance H between the fourth part 174 and the bottom wall of the fourth liquid guiding groove 18 satisfies the following condition: vertical distance H ≤ 10 mm.

[0101] The vertical distance H can be exemplified by 10mm, 9mm, 8mm, 7mm, 6mm, 5mm, 4mm, 3mm, 2mm, or 1mm, etc. If the vertical distance H is too large, it will hinder the flow of liquid in the fourth liquid guide groove 18 and easily cause wind noise during driving. This embodiment limits the vertical distance H to ≤ 10mm to facilitate better flow of liquid in the fourth liquid guide groove 18 and control the thickness of the fourth part 174, thereby reducing wind noise during vehicle operation and improving the user experience of the vehicle.

[0102] Please refer to Figure 10 In one embodiment, along the length direction of the binding strip 1, the length L of the fourth part 174 satisfies the following condition: length L ≥ 10 mm.

[0103] Specific examples of the length L include 10mm, 12mm, 14mm, 16mm, 18mm, 20mm, 25mm, or 30mm. If the length L is too small, it will be difficult for the cover plate 24 to connect to the fourth part 174. This embodiment limits the length L to ≥ 10mm to provide sufficient space for the cover plate 24 to connect to the fourth part 174, thereby improving the connection and sealing performance between the cover plate 24 and the fourth part 174, and reducing the probability of liquid flowing onto the stop strip 22.

[0104] Please refer to this as well. Figures 3-6 , Figures 11-13 In one embodiment, the edge banding strip 1 includes an extrusion section 191 and an injection section 192 connected to each other. The extrusion section 191 is obtained by an extrusion process and is disposed away from the stop strip 22. The injection section 192 is obtained by an injection molding process and is disposed close to the stop strip 22.

[0105] Specifically, the edge strip 1 with the first liquid-blocking part 13 is an injection-molded part 192, and the edge strip 1 with the second liquid-blocking part 17 is also an injection-molded part 192. The edge strip 1 without the first liquid-blocking part 13 and the second liquid-blocking part 17 is an extruded part 191. The extruded part 191 obtained by the extrusion process has the advantage of low cost, while the injection-molded part 192 obtained by the injection molding process can be made into parts of various shapes according to product requirements.

[0106] The edge banding 1 located at the top edge of the glass 21 is an extrusion section 191. The edge banding 1 located on the side of the glass 21 is formed by connecting the extrusion section 191 and the injection molding section 192. The edge banding 1 located at the top of the side of the glass 21 is an extrusion section 191, and the edge banding 1 located at the bottom of the side of the glass 21 is an injection molding section 192.

[0107] This embodiment combines the extrusion section 191 with the injection molding section 192, which can both use injection molding to prepare the first liquid blocking section 13 and the second liquid blocking section 17 with specific shapes, and use extrusion to prepare the conventional edge banding strip 1 part, thereby reducing the overall preparation cost of the edge banding strip 1.

[0109] The glass assembly provided in this application, by adopting the edge strip provided in this application above, provides a first liquid-blocking part at the end of the edge strip, which effectively blocks the liquid from flowing from the edge strip to the stop strip, avoiding the liquid from dripping from the stop strip onto the electrical components inside the vehicle, reducing the risk of electrical component leakage damage, and also avoiding the risk of abnormal noise caused by liquid accumulating on the stop strip and freezing, thereby improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.

[0110] This application also provides a vehicle including a body and a glass assembly as described above, the glass assembly being disposed at an opening in the body.

[0111] The vehicle provided in this application, by adopting the glass assembly provided above, has a first liquid-blocking part provided at the end of the edge strip, which effectively blocks the liquid from flowing from the edge strip to the stop strip, preventing the liquid from dripping from the stop strip onto the electrical components inside the vehicle, reducing the risk of electrical component leakage and damage, and also preventing the risk of abnormal noise caused by the liquid accumulating on the stop strip and freezing, thereby improving the reliability of the vehicle and the user experience.
