Description

The invention relates to a profiled strip arrangement having the features of the preamble of claim 1.From the document EP 2 285 612 B2 water box profiles for connecting a vehicle window to a water box cover are known. Water box profiles of this type have a fastening region for arrangement on the lower edge region of a windshield and a latching region for latching connection to a rib of the water box cover.From the document US 2009 / 0212588 A1, profile strips for connecting a vehicle window to a body component adjacent to the vehicle window, for example a roof edge or an A-pillar of a vehicle body, are known. Such profile strips have a fastening region for arrangement on an edge region of a vehicle window and a sealing element for bearing on the adjacent body component.Further profile strip arrangements are known from US 2014 / 0374401 A1 and DE 10 2020 131 603 A1.The inventors have made their object to provide a profile strip arrangement which offers increased use, for example by performing additional functions, and which can be configured in particular in a simple and cost-effective manner for different application cases.DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTIONDefinitions:Longitudinal directionThe direction of the longest extension of a profile strip or of a profile strip arrangement (corresponds to the extrusion direction in the case of extruded profile strips); in the case of a profile strip bent for adaptation to a vehicle window, the profile strip can be designed to be a single component of the extruded profile strip.In the case of further components of the profiled strip arrangement, the longitudinal direction has a curved course; in each case, the direction parallel to the longitudinal direction of the profiled stripLongitudinal extension Cross-section Cross-sectional profileExtension in the longitudinal sectional plane perpendicular to the longitudinal profile viewed in cross sectionInsofar as features of the invention are referred to in the singular below, this also includes the plural, insofar as this is technically expedient. For example, "a functional element" or "the functional element" also comprises a plurality of functional elements.The invention relates to a profiled strip arrangement having the features of claim 1.This provides a profile strip arrangement which, in addition to the connection between the vehicle window and the first component, performs a further function which is independent of this connection function and which is made available by the functional element.The vehicle pane can be a simple pane or a composite pane with two or more partial panes laminated to one another, wherein the simple pane or one or more of the partial panes of the composite pane can be made of glass or of plastic. The vehicle window comprises two main sides and an edge which connects the main sides to one another. The main side facing a vehicle interior in the installed state of the vehicle window forms an inner side of the vehicle window, and the main side facing an outer side of the vehicle window in the installed state forms an outer side of the vehicle window.The fastening region of the profile strip serves for fastening the profile strip to the vehicle window. The fastening region comprises a fastening leg which can be arranged with the fastening side, preferably on the inner side, in the edge region of the vehicle window and which can be fixed to the vehicle window by means of a fastening means, for example a double-sided adhesive tape, optionally arranged on the fastening side of the fastening leg. The fastening region can also comprise two mutually connected fastening limbs and can be of U-shaped cross section and can be configured, for example, as a clamping profile which engages around an edge or an edge region of the vehicle window and can be clamped on and / or adhesively fastened.The first component adjacent to the vehicle window may be, for example, a water box cover, a sealing strip, a water catching strip, a gap cover, a decorative strip or a similar component, which can be fixed to the first connecting region of the profile strip and thereby connected to the latter. This connection can be designed, for example, as a force-fit and / or form-fit joining connection, wherein the first connection region of the profile strip comprises, for example, a groove for receiving a correspondingly designed tongue or latching rib of the component adjacent to the vehicle window.The first component adjacent to the vehicle window may also be a body part, for example an A-pillar, a roof edge or another part of the body of a vehicle. In this case, the first connecting region is designed as an abutment region, and the connection between the profile strip and the body part is effected by, in particular, sealing, abutment of the first connecting region on the body part. The contact region can comprise, for example, a sealing element, a water trapping element or a gap covering element or be formed as such. As a result, for example, a gap between the vehicle window and the adjacent body part can be visually concealed and / or sealed.In one embodiment, the functional region of the functional element comprises a positioning element for at least lateral alignment of the vehicle window connected to the profile strip arrangement on the body of the vehicle. When the vehicle window provided with the profile strip arrangement is mounted on the vehicle body, the positioning element can be aligned with a counter-positioning element provided on the body, for example by the positioning element engaging with an opening or indentation in the body. In particular, if a plurality of functional elements are provided with positioning elements, a simple lateral alignment of the vehicle window on the vehicle body can be achieved. Such a positioning element can additionally have a height stop, which can come to lie on the vehicle body and serves for setting a distance between the pane and the vehicle body.According to the invention, the functional region comprises a holding element for fastening a second component. The second component can be a, preferably electrically conductive or fluid-conducting, elongate element, for example a hose, a cable or the like. The holding element can be designed, for example, as a clip, sleeve or clip or can have another suitable shape. In this way, for example, cables or hoses can be laid along the profile track arrangement and held by the holding element. Separate fastening elements on the body or the vehicle window can thus be dispensed with.In a further embodiment, the functional region comprises a contact element which comprises a foam. The foam may be elastically deformable and / or watertight or water-repellent. As a result, it can be at least partially prevented that water reaches between the profile strip arrangement and the body after installation of the vehicle window provided with the profile strip arrangement into the body. The engine compartment can thus be additionally protected from the penetration of water.In a further embodiment, the functional region comprises a spacer for the vertical positioning of the vehicle window connected to the profiled strip arrangement on the body of the vehicle. For this purpose, the spacer has a defined dimensioning which specifies a distance between the vehicle window provided with the profiled strip arrangement and the vehicle body. This prevents individual components of the profiled strip arrangement from getting too close to the vehicle body or from unintentionally resting thereon after the vehicle window has been installed in the vehicle body, and thus makes the connection of the profiled strip to the first component, for example the water box cover, more difficult or prevented.The second connecting region can extend continuously and completely along the longitudinal extent of the profile strip or can be arranged in a subsection or in a plurality of subsections along the longitudinal extent of the profile strip. In general, the second connecting region is arranged on the profile strip in such a way that, in the previously described pre-assembly state, it is arranged on a side of the profile strip facing away from the vehicle window.In a preferred embodiment, the second connecting region is arranged on a side of the fastening leg facing away from the fastening side of the fastening leg. Since the fastening leg is secured directly to the pane, this results in a particularly robust connection of the second connection region to the functional element.The functional element is fixed to the second connection region according to the invention by means of a form-fit and / or force-fit connection between the second connection region of the profile strip and the fixing region of the functional element. For this purpose, the second connecting region or the fixing region comprises a groove. The fixing region or the second connecting region correspondingly comprises a coupling region which can be joined or joined to the groove. Thus, a form-fit and / or force-fit connection is present between the groove and the coupling region. A groove is understood to mean a depression which extends at least in sections in the longitudinal direction along the second connecting region or the fixing region and which can accommodate the coupling region. As a result, a connection between the profile strip and the functional element can be realized in a simple and cost-effective manner. For optimum positioning of the functional element or elements, a position marking or a plurality of position markings can / can be provided on the profile strip.In a preferred embodiment of the form-fit and / or force-fit connection between the second connection region of the profile strip and the fixing region of the functional element, the groove has an undercut at least in sections, and the coupling region is held in a form-fit manner in the undercut of the groove. The groove has a groove opening extending parallel to a longitudinal direction of the groove with a groove opening width that is uniform or variable along a longitudinal extension of the groove. Examples of such connections are a mushroom head and a groove receiving the mushroom head, a dovetail connection or a T-groove with a correspondingly designed coupling region. In particular when using an undercut groove with a groove opening width that is uniform along the longitudinal extension, it may be advantageous to design the coupling region from an elastically deformable material in order to be able to introduce it into the groove opening directly at a desired position along the profile strip under temporary deformation, instead of having to introduce the coupling region into the groove at an end-face end of the groove and then to shift it in the longitudinal direction. Alternatively, a groove of variable groove opening width described above may be provided in which the coupling region is inserted into the groove in a portion of the groove of large groove opening width and then displaced in the longitudinal direction of the groove to a portion of the groove of small groove opening width. This alternative also makes possible a positioning of the functional element on the profile strip that is comfortable for the user.In a further embodiment, the second connecting region comprises the groove undercut at least in sections and the fixing region comprises a rotary latch-like coupling region. As a result, the functional element can be arranged directly at any desired position along the longitudinal extent of the profile strip and does not have to be introduced at the end face and then displaced as far as the desired position.In one embodiment, the rotary latch-like coupling region comprises a head section with a latch element, wherein the head section can be introduced through the slot opening into the slot in an insertion direction oriented transversely to the longitudinal direction of the slot, wherein the head section can be transferred from a first rotational position, in which the latch element is not in engagement with the undercut, by rotation about an axis of rotation parallel to the insertion direction into a second rotational position, in which the latch element is in engagement with the undercut. Such a connection is advantageous since the user can insert the functional element directly into the undercut groove at a desired position along the profile strip and can subsequently establish a secure connection of the functional element to the profile strip by rotating at least the head section (or the functional element as a whole).Two or more functional elements can also be arranged on the second connection region, which functional elements can have identical or different functional regions. As a result, the profile strip arrangement can be configured flexibly and, if required, also provide a plurality of additional functions.In one embodiment, the first connecting region of the profile strip comprises a latching region with a latching groove for latching connection to a rib of the first component. The latching groove is bounded by an inner leg adjacent to the fastening region, an outer leg opposite the inner leg, and a base portion connecting the two legs. The latching groove can have a V-shape or a U-shape in cross section, for example.In such an embodiment, the second connecting region can be arranged on an outer side of the outer leg and / or of the base portion facing away from the latching groove.The functional element is in each case a component of the profiled strip arrangement according to the invention which is produced separately from the profiled strip. The functional element provides via its functional region an additional functionality of the profile strip arrangement which is independent of the connection between the vehicle window and the first component.The invention also comprises a separate functional element, comprising a fixing region for connection to a second connecting region of a profile strip and a functional region. For the fixing region and the functional region of this functional element, the above explanations apply in each case with respect to the functional element of the profiled strip arrangement.The profiled strip arrangement according to the invention can also be provided as a kit ("kit") comprising a profiled strip and a separate functional element or a plurality of separate functional elements.Part of the invention is also a method for producing a profiled strip arrangement according to the invention having features corresponding to one or more of the embodiments described above.

In a pre-assembly state illustrated in FIG. 4 a, the profiled strip arrangement 100 is connected to the vehicle window 400. A contact region 3241 of the transport protection element 324 covers an edge region of the vehicle window 400 and is releasably fastened to the outer side of the vehicle window 400 by means of a fixing means 3242. A bridge section 3244 of the transport protection element 324 extends between the fixing region 310 and the contact region 3241 and in the process engages around the latching region 221 of the profile strip 200. A piping 2215 is accommodated in the latching groove 2211 as a transport securing means.In the embodiment according to FIG. 4 c, the transport protection element 324 of the profiled strip arrangement 100 shown in cross section according to FIG. 4 acomprises an insertion section 3243, which is accommodated in the latching groove 2211. FIG. 4 d shows the functional element 300 of FIG. 4 cin isolation.As can be seen from FIGS. 4 aand 4 c, the transport protection element 324 can protect the first connecting region 220 from external influences during the transport of the profiled strip arrangement 100 or of the vehicle window 400 provided with the profiled strip arrangement 100. Preferably, at least the bridge portion 3244 is elastically deformable, so that the functional element 300 can also assume an extended configuration instead of the illustrated (U-shaped in cross section). As a result, the functional element 300 can first be fastened to the profile strip 200 in an extended configuration (for example also by means of a rotary latch-like coupling region 3111) described with reference to FIG. 6 a, before the bridge portion 3244 is subsequently guided around the first connecting region 220 and the contact region 3241 is fastened to the pane by means of the fixing means 3242.FIG. 5 ashows a profile strip arrangement 100 in a perspective view with a profile strip 200, which corresponds largely to the profile strip 200 described with reference to FIG. 1 a. However, the groove opening 2322 has a groove opening width A, A' which is variable along the longitudinal extension of the profile strip 200. Along a longitudinal extension of the profiled strip 200, there are a section with a greater groove opening width A (on the left in FIG. 5a) and a section with a smaller groove opening width A' (on the right in FIG. 5a). The coupling region 311 of the functional element 300 can be inserted into the portion of the groove 232 with a large groove opening width A and then displaced in a mounting direction D along the groove 232 into the portion with a small groove opening width A'. As a result, the coupling region 311 engages with the undercuts 2321 in the region of the groove 232 with a small groove opening width A', and the functional element 300 is fixed to the profile strip 200.FIG. 5b shows the cross section of the profiled strip 200 at the location designated by b-b in FIG. 5a with the greater groove opening width A. FIG. 5c shows the cross section of the profiled strip 200 at the location designated by c-c in FIG. 5a with the smaller groove opening width A'.FIG. 6 ashows a profile strip arrangement 100 with a functional element 300 with a coupling region 3111 in the manner of a rotary latch in a perspective illustration in three phases of the assembly process. The profile strip 200 corresponds to the profile strip 200 described above with reference to FIG. 1 a. FIG. 6 bshows the functional element 300 from FIG. 6 ain a plan view. The rotary latch-like coupling region 3111 of the functional element 300 comprises a head section 31111 with two latch elements 31112. In the left-hand illustration (1st phase) of FIG. 6 a, the head portion 31111 is in a first rotational position about a rotational axis 31113 and is introduced into the groove 232 through the groove opening 2322 in an insertion direction B oriented transversely with respect to a longitudinal direction of the groove 232. This leads to the state shown in the middle illustration (2ndphase) of FIG. 6 a, in which the head portion 31111 is indeed inserted into the groove 232, wherein the locking elements 3112are however not in engagement with the undercuts 2321of the groove 232. As a result of the rotational movement C of the head portion 31111 about the rotational axis 31113 parallel to the insertion direction B, as shown in the middle illustration, the head portion 31111 reaches a second rotational position, as shown in the right illustration (3rd phase), in which the two locking elements 3111 are in engagement with the undercuts 2321. The locking elements 31112 are covered by the undercuts 2321 in the right-hand illustration and are therefore not visible.FIGS. 7 aand 7 b show a profile strip arrangement 100 with a functional region 320 of the functional element 300 comprising a contact element 325. FIG. 7 ashows the profile strip arrangement 100 arranged on the vehicle window 400 and a first component 500 connected to the profile strip arrangement 100 in cross section. The profile strip 200 has already been described above, in particular with reference to FIG. 1 a. The functional region 320 of the functional element 300 comprises a contact element 325 comprising a foam 3251. The foam 3251 may have a lower Shore hardness than, for example, the fixation region 310. It may alternatively or additionally be water-repellent or water-tight. FIG. 7 bshows the previously described profiled strip arrangement 100 in a perspective view. By means of the foam 3251, for example, water can be at least partially prevented from penetrating into the engine compartment.FIG. 8 shows a profile strip arrangement 100 with a profile strip 200 which corresponds substantially to the profile strip 200 according to FIG. 1 a.
