Patent number: 8689489Abstract: A glass run includes an outer side wall, an inner side wall and a bottom wall, which define a generally U-shaped cross-section. A first outer seal lip and an inner seal lip are respectively formed in the outer side wall and the inner side wall. An extension part is formed to extend from an open end of the outer side wall of the glass run for attachment to vertical side portions of the door frame in an extending direction thereof, and a second outer seal lip is formed to extend from a tip end of the extension part in a direction of a front side of a vehicle body such that the second outer seal lip seals the door glass on a front side of a part sealed with the first outer seal lip.Type: GrantFiled: September 20, 2011Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd.Inventor: Kiminori Mine

Publication number: 20090001772Abstract: A roof weather strip includes a fitting base part and a seal part having a hollow part. The seal part has a sealing wall which is configured to be brought into pressure contact with a peripheral part of a roof panel forming a roof opening, when a movable roof closes the roof opening. The seal part also has an upper connecting region so as to connect the sealing wall to an upper part of the fitting base part. The upper connecting region is provided with a corrugated part on its inner face opposed to the hollow space, and the corrugated part has a plurality of convex parts and concave parts which are alternately formed. An arm part is integrally formed so as to extend from the fitting base part downward at an outer peripheral side, and a distal end of the arm part is connected to a lower end of the seal part. Because a plurality of the concave parts of the corrugated part exist in the upper connecting region, stress is easily dispersed.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2008Publication date: January 1, 2009Applicants: TOYODA GOSEI CO., LTD, AISIN SEIKI KABUSHIKI KAISYAInventors: Tomohiro Dosaki, Kiminori Mine, Toru Kotsuchihashi, Katsutoshi Kato

Publication number: 20050246963Abstract: A weather strip includes a trim body having a generally U-shaped cross section, a hollow seal portion that protrudes from an outside surface of the trim body, and a holding lip formed on the trim body so as to extend from an inside surface of the trim body toward the inside of the trim body. The weather strip is mounted on the vehicle body such that the trim body is held by a flange provided at a periphery of a door opening of a motor vehicle. The weather strip is formed by extrusion molding such that the length of the holding lip is changed in a plurality of steps in accordance with the thickness of the flange.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2005Publication date: November 10, 2005Inventors: Harumi Kogiso, Kiminori Mine, Masaki Ohashi, Takaaki Sato, Tomofumi Nishikawa, Masahiro Nozaki, Toshihiro Nahara

Patent number: 6647667Abstract: The present invention relates to a trim or a seal member such as an opening trim weather strip. The trim or a trim body in the seal member has a holding lip portion and modified holding lip portions. And the holding lip portion and modified holding lip portions have head portions. The head portions are made to bulge out toward a bottom wall portion at the tip ends of modified holding lip portions of the trim or the trim body of trim portion. The modified holding lip portions are formed so that projecting lengths of the head portions from the end surfaces of tip end portions of the modified holding lip portions, and the thicknesses of the head portions increase in inverse proportion to lip projecting lengths of the modified holding lip portions from an inner surface of an interior side wall portion. Alternatively, a slope inclined with respect to an extension plane of an opening-portion-side surface of a base end portion is formed at tip ends of the modified holding lip portions.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2001Date of Patent: November 18, 2003Assignee: Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kiminori Mine, Kazuo Ogawa, Keizo Hayashi
