[0026] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The accompanying drawings show exemplary embodiments of the present invention, but only specifically illustrate structures related to improvements of the present invention. Therefore, the components shown in the accompanying drawings do not necessarily exist in all embodiments. On the contrary, components not shown in the accompanying drawings may exist in some embodiments. In addition, the accompanying drawings are only used to illustrate the principles of the present application and are not drawn to scale.

[0027] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters refer to similar items in the following figures, and therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it need not be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0028] The terms "connection", "joining" and the like in this document may refer to a direct connection or joining between two components. Alternatively, there may be other components between the two components and the two components may be indirectly connected or joined.

[0029] The present invention will take a vehicle door such as a left front door, that is, a front door close to the driver's side, as an example to describe in detail the glass run channel assembly and the vehicle window system of the present invention. Figure 1 A simplified schematic diagram of the left front door is shown. For ease of description, several directional terms are first defined with reference to the accompanying drawings. All directional terms in the present invention are understood with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this document, the directions of each of the glass run channel assembly and the window system are defined with reference to the direction of the door when it is closed on the vehicle. Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, the front-to-back direction is sometimes also called the longitudinal direction, including the "front" direction and the "rear" direction. The "front" direction is indicated by the arrow F, indicating the direction toward the front of the vehicle, and the "rear" direction is indicated by the arrow R, indicating the direction opposite to the "front" direction and toward the rear of the vehicle; the up-down direction is sometimes also called the vertical direction, including the "up" direction and the "down" direction. The "up" direction is indicated by the arrow U, indicating the direction toward the roof of the vehicle, and the "down" direction is indicated by the arrow D, indicating the direction opposite to the "up" direction and toward the bottom of the vehicle. In addition, as Figures 4 to 8 As shown, the inside-outside direction is sometimes also referred to as the lateral direction, including the "inside" direction and the "outside" direction. The "inside" direction is shown by arrow I, which refers to the direction from the outside of the vehicle to the inside of the vehicle. On the contrary, the "outside" direction is represented by "O", which refers to the direction opposite to the "inside" direction, from the inside of the vehicle to the outside of the vehicle. However, it should be pointed out that these directional terms are only used to more intuitively explain the technical solution of the utility model with the help of the drawings, and they should not be interpreted in any way as limiting the protection scope of the utility model.

[0030] It can be understood that because the key improvement of the present invention is the glass run channel assembly for the vehicle window system, Figures 4 to 8 In the cross-sectional schematic diagram, only the structure mainly located on the inner side of the window glass related to the improvement of the utility model is shown. The utility model does not illustrate or limit the structure located on the outer side of the window glass, which can be any feasible structure in the art.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 Generally speaking, a vehicle door has a window system 10 that defines a window 12 and includes Figure 2 The first window frame 14 shown and Figure 1 A second sash 18 is shown connected to the door inner panel 16 .

[0032] like Figure 2As shown, the first window frame 14 has a first window frame component 14a, a second window frame component 14b, an upper window frame component 14c and a lower window frame component 14d, the first window frame component 14a and the second window frame component 14b are opposite to each other in the longitudinal direction and extend substantially in the vertical direction, a rearward end 14c1 of the upper window frame component 14c is connected to the upper end of the first window frame component 14a, and a forward end 14c2 of the upper window frame component 14c is connected to the upper end of the second window frame component 14b, wherein the rearward end 14c1 of the upper window frame component 14c can be bent relative to the longitudinal direction so as to be smoothly connected to the upper end of the first window frame component 14a, and similarly, the forward end 14c2 of the upper window frame component 14c can be bent relative to the longitudinal direction so as to be smoothly connected to the upper end of the second window frame component 14b. In addition, the lower end of the first window frame member 14a is further connected to the rear end of the lower window frame member 14d, and the lower end of the second window frame member 14b is further connected to the front end of the lower window frame member 14d.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the second window frame 18 has a substantially identical appearance to the first window frame 14, that is, the second window frame 18 also has a first window frame component 18a, a second window frame component 18b, an upper window frame component 18c, and a lower window frame component 18d of the same configuration, and the upper window frame component 18c has a rearward end 18c1 and a forward end 18c2. The second window frame 18 is different from the first window frame 14 in that the first window frame 14 is formed separately, while the second window frame 18 may have been mounted to the door inner panel 16 or formed integrally with the door inner panel 16. The door inner panel 16 is coupled to the door outer panel to form a door chamber for accommodating a moving device, which is configured to drive the window glass 20 to move, such as to lift and lower, so as to open and close the window 12.

[0034] It can be understood that in order to achieve various shapes of the window 12, each of the first window frame component 14a, 18a, the second window frame component 14b, 18b, the upper window frame component 14c, 18c and the lower window frame component 14d, 18d of the first or second window frame 14, 18 is not necessarily a single component. For example, when the forward end 14c2, 18c2 and / or the rearward end 14c1, 18c1 of the upper window frame component 14c, 18c is bent, there may be multiple components, especially separate components for the bent forward end 14c2, 18c2 and / or rearward end 14c1, 18c1, to splice out the complete upper window frame component 14c, 18c.

[0035] The utility model provides Figure 3The glass run channel assembly 28 shown is to be used in the vehicle window system 10. Generally speaking, the first window frame 14 and the second window frame 18 are made of metal, for example, by a stamping process, so as to substantially support the edge of the window glass 20, and the glass run channel assembly 28 is made of an elastic material such as rubber or resin. The glass run channel assembly 28 is mounted to the first window frame 14 and / or the second window frame 18 to abut against the edge of the window glass 20 and / or receive the edge of the window glass 20, thereby playing the role of sealing, waterproofing, dustproofing, sound insulation, shock absorption, and ensuring that the window glass 20 can move freely and smoothly.

[0036] In the vehicle window system 10, as Figure 4 As shown, the first window frame member 14a of the first window frame 14 is joined to the first window frame member 18a of the second window frame 18 to form a first joint interface 22 close to the rear portion of the window 12, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, the second window frame member 14b of the first window frame 14 is joined to the second window frame member 18b of the second window frame 18 to form a second joint interface 24 close to the front of the window 12, and as shown in FIG. Figure 5 As shown, the rearward end 14c1 of the upper window frame member 14c of the first window frame 14 is joined to the rearward end 18c1 of the upper window frame member 18c of the second window frame 18 to form a rearward end 26a of the upper joint interface close to the upper portion of the window 12, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the front end 14c2 of the upper window frame member 14c of the first window frame 14 is joined to the front end 18c2 of the upper window frame member 18c of the second window frame 18 to form a front end 26b of the upper joint interface close to the upper portion of the window 12, and as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the upper joint interface further includes a middle portion 26c located between the rearward end portion 26a and the forward end portion 26b. That is, the rearward end portion 26a of the upper joint interface is connected to the upper end of the first joint interface 22, the forward end portion 26b of the upper joint interface is connected to the upper end of the second joint interface 24, and the second joint interface 24 is opposite to the first joint interface 22 along the longitudinal direction. It can be understood that when the forward end portions 14c2, 18c2 and / or the rearward end portions 14c1, 18c1 of the upper window frame members 14c, 18c are bent, the rearward end portion 26a and / or the forward end portion 26b of the upper joint interface will also be bent relative to the longitudinal direction.

[0037] The glass run channel assembly 28 may include: Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first component 28a, the main body portion 28a1 of the first component 28a is formed to be suitable for abutting against the rear edge 20a of the window glass 20, and the extension portion 28a2 of the first component 28a is formed to cover the first bonding interface 22 to assist in sealing the first bonding interface 22; Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the second component 28b connected to the first component 28a, the main body portion 28b1 of the second component 28b is formed to be suitable for receiving a portion of the upper edge 20b of the window glass 20 that is continuous with the rear edge 20a, and the extension portion 28b2 of the second component 28b is formed to cover the rear end 26a of the upper joint interface to assist in sealing the rear end 26a of the upper joint interface; Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 1 , the third component 28c connected to the second component 28b is formed to be suitable for receiving the middle portion of the upper edge 20b of the window glass 20, and the third component 28c does not cover the middle portion 26c of the upper joint interface, so as not to assist in sealing the middle portion 26c of the upper joint interface. In other words, the third component 28c is formed to have only a main body portion and no extension portion; Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, a fourth component 28d connected to the third component 28c, a main portion 28d1 of the fourth component 28d is formed to be suitable for receiving a portion of the upper edge 20b of the window glass 20 that is continuous with the front edge 20c, and an extension portion 28d2 of the fourth component 28d is formed to cover the forward end portion 26b of the upper joint interface to assist in sealing the forward end portion 26b of the upper joint interface; and Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, the fifth component 28e is connected to the fourth component 28d, the main portion 28e1 of the fifth component 28e is formed to be suitable for abutting against the front end edge 20c of the window glass 20, and the extension portion 28e2 of the fifth component 28e is formed to cover the second bonding interface 24 to assist in sealing the second bonding interface 24.

[0038] Since the arrangement of the first to fifth components 28a-28e relative to the window 12 will conform to the arrangement of the first and second bonding interfaces 22, 24 and the upper bonding interface relative to the window 12, Figure 3 As shown, more specifically, the upper end of the first component 28a can be connected to the rear end of the second component 28b, the front end of the second component 28b can be connected to the rear end of the third component 28c, the front end of the third component 28c can be connected to the rear end of the fourth component 28d, and the front end of the fourth component 28d can be connected to the upper end of the fifth component 28e. It can be understood that, according to specific manufacturing requirements, at least some of the first to fifth components 28a-28e can be formed separately or integrally to jointly constitute the glass run channel assembly 28.

[0039] Experiments have shown that during high-speed driving of the vehicle, air enters the vehicle interior from the outside of the vehicle mainly through the gaps existing in the first and second joint interfaces 22, 24, and the gaps existing in the front end 26b and the rear end 26a of the upper joint interface, thereby generating wind noise. Therefore, the extensions 28a2, 28b2, 28d2, 28e2 of the first, second, fourth and fifth components 28a, 28b, 28d, 28e will assist in sealing the first and second joint interfaces 22, 24, and the front end 26b and the rear end 26a of the upper joint interface to avoid the generation of wind noise. At the same time, the third component 28c is formed so as not to cover the middle portion 26c between the front end 26b and the rear end 26a of the upper joint interface, so that the window frame decorative part (CCP) used to cover the third component 28c later does not need to be too large, and will not hinder the driver's upward and forward viewing field. Therefore, the glass run channel assembly 28 and the vehicle window system 10 provided by the present invention can reasonably reduce wind noise while ensuring the driver's upward and forward viewing field of vision.

[0040] Optionally, the glass run channel assembly 28 further includes Figure 4 The first glass guide rail 30 shown and Figure 8 The second glass guide rail 32 shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the first glass guide rail 30 is fixed to the first window frame member 14a of the first window frame 14 close to the first joint interface 22, and as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, the second glass rail 32 is fixed to the second window frame member 14b of the first window frame 14 near the second joint interface 24. Figure 1 As shown, it can be understood that the upper end of the first glass guide rail 30 is close to the upper end of the first window frame member 14a, 18a of the first or second window frame 14, 18, but the lower end of the first glass guide rail 30 as shown by the dotted line will extend further downward into the door cavity, so that the length of the first glass guide rail 30 is greater than the length of the first window frame member 14a, 18a of the first or second window frame 14, 18. Similarly, the upper end of the second glass guide rail 32 is close to the upper end of the second window frame member 14b of the first or second window frame 14, 18, but the lower end of the second glass guide rail 32 as shown by the dotted line will extend further downward into the door cavity, so that the length of the second glass guide rail 32 is greater than the length of the second window frame member 14b, 18b of the first or second window frame 14, 18. It can be understood that the length of the first glass guide rail 30 can be different from the length of the second glass guide rail 32.

[0041] For example, the main body portion 28a1, 28e1 of the first or fifth component 28a, 28e may be fixed to the first or second glass guide rail 30, 32 in a form-fitting manner along the entire length of the first or second glass guide rail 30, 32. Herein, the extension portion 28a2 of the first component 28a may at least be wrapped around the first joint interface 22 in a form-fitting manner along the length of the first window frame component 14a, 18a of the first or second window frame 14, 18, and the extension portion 28e2 of the fifth component 28e may at least be wrapped around the second joint interface 24 in a form-fitting manner along the length of the second window frame component 14b, 18b of the first or second window frame 14, 18. It can be understood that, in order to facilitate mold opening, the extended parts 28a2, 28e2 of the first or fifth parts 28a, 28e can also be set along the entire length of the first or second glass guide rails 30, 32, but will only be covered on the first or second joint interface 22, 24 in a shape-fitting manner along the length of the first window frame part 14a, 18a or the second window frame part 14b, 18b of the first or second window frame 14, 18.

[0042] In addition, if Figure 5 As shown, the main body portion 28b1 of the second member 28b is fixed to the rear end portion 14c1 of the upper window frame member 14c of the first window frame 14, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, the main body portion 28d1 of the fourth component 28d is fixed to the front end 14c2 of the upper window frame component 14c of the first window frame 14, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the third member 28c is fixed to the middle portion between the forward end 14c2 and the rearward end 14c1 of the upper window frame member 14c of the first window frame 14. For example, the upper window frame member 14c of the first window frame 14 is joined to the upper window frame member 18c of the second window frame 18 to further form an additional upper joint interface radially away from the window 12, such as Figure 5 As shown, a portion of the main body portion 28b1 of the second component 28b will be covered on the rear end portion 34a of the additional joint interface, such as Figure 7 As shown, a portion of the main body portion 28d1 of the fourth component 28d will be covered on the forward end portion 34b of the additional upper joint interface, and as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, a portion of the third component 28c will be wrapped around the intermediate portion 34c between the forward end 34b and the rearward end 34a of the additional upper engagement interface.

[0043] Optionally, when the rearward end 26a and / or the forward end 26b of the upper joint interface is bent relative to the longitudinal direction, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the second component 28b and / or the fourth component 28d will be bent accordingly with respect to the longitudinal direction.

[0044] Optionally, refer to Figure 1The window system 10 also includes an inner water cut (not shown) fixed to the lower window frame component 18d of the second window frame 18, the rear end of the inner water cut abuts against the extension portion 28a2 of the first component 28a, and the front end of the inner water cut abuts against the extension portion 28e2 of the fifth component 28e, so as to assist in sealing the airflow channel from the outside of the vehicle to the inside of the vehicle, thereby causing wind noise.

[0045] The structure of the glass run channel assembly 28 will be described in detail below based on the cross sections of the first to fifth components 28a-28e.

[0046] For example, Figure 4 As shown, the main body 28a1 of the first component 28a includes: a first trunk section 361, for example, matching the shape of the cross section of the first glass guide rail 30; and a first lip 381, a second lip 401, and a third lip 421 extending from the outer side of the first trunk section 361, wherein the first lip 381 and the second lip 401 are spaced apart relative to the longitudinal direction so as to be suitable for abutting against the inner side of the rear end edge 20a of the window glass 20, and the third lip 421 is spaced apart from the second lip 401 relative to the longitudinal direction so that the second lip 401 is located between the first lip 381 and the third lip 421, and the third lip 421 is configured to be suitable for abutting against the end surface of the rear end edge 20a of the window glass 20. Similarly, as Figure 8 As shown, the main body portion 28e1 of the fifth component 28e also includes a first trunk section 362 , a first lip 382 , a second lip 402 and a third lip 422 .
