Abstract: A molding element for joining a part to a vehicle window pane includes a molding body having a first section configured to be secured to an edge of the window pane and a second section including a latching recess being configured to receive, in an insertion direction, a rib of the part through an engagement opening so as to detachably fasten the part to the molding element. A closure element is formed on the molding body. The closure element bridges the engagement opening in a first functional position.

A closure element is formed on the molding body so as to at least partially close off the latching recess.

Abstract: A profile element for connecting a vehicle pane to a water draining chamber includes a U-shaped snap-in recess formed by a bearing rib and a resilient leg disposed below the bearing rib. At an entrance into the snap-in recess, the bearing rib protrudes downward towards the resilient leg and the resilient leg protrudes upward towards the bearing rib so as to define an engagement aperture into the snap-in recess between an upper-most part of the protrusion of the resilient leg and a lower-most part of the protrusion of the bearing rib. A detent element is disposed in the snap-in recess behind the engagement aperture in an insertion direction of a rib of the water draining chamber.

Abstract: A profile element for connecting a vehicle pane to a water draining chamber includes a first segment affixable to the vehicle pane. A second segment has, at an upper portion, a bearing rib having at least one seal configured to be disposed at a lower edge of the vehicle pane and, at a lower portion, a snap-in recess configured to receive rib of the water draining chamber through an engagement aperture which is delimited in the insertion direction by a lower-most surface of the bearing rib and an upper-most surface of the resilient leg. A detent element is disposed in the snap-in recess so as to facilitate inserting the rib of the water draining chamber in an insertion direction into the snap-in recess and present a larger resistance to extracting the rib from the snap-in recess in an extraction direction opposite the insertion direction.

Abstract: A molded component to connect a motor vehicle window with a water box includes a first segment affixable to the vehicle window and a second segment having a detent cavity bounded by a resilient leg and configured to receive a rib of the water box in an insertion direction so as to detachably affix the water box in a frictionally and/or geometrically interlocking manner in the detent cavity. A detent element projects into the detent cavity at an acute angle relative to the insertion direction such that the resilient leg is elastically deformed to a greater extent during an extraction of the rib of the water box from the detent cavity than during an insertion of the rib of the water box into the detent cavity. This facilitates the insertion and presents a greater resistance to the extraction of the rib from the detent cavity.

Abstract: (57) Main claim: A molded component (10) to connect a motor vehicle window (40) to a water box (50). comprising a first segment (20) affixable to said window and a second segment (30) having or forming a detent cavity (60) to allow detachable affixation of said water box (50), said water box being fitted with a rib (51) which is affixable frictionally and/or in geometrically interlocking manner in said detent cavity (60), the first segment (20) partly enclosing at its edge the motor vehicle window (40), characterized in that said molded component comprises at least one detent element (70) designed to ease inserting the rib (51) of the water box (50) into the detent cavity (60) in a first direction (R1, whereas making it comparatively more difficult to extract the rib (51) from the detent cavity (60) in the opposite direction (R2).

Abstract: A contoured structure (10) to connect a vehicle pane (40) to a water draining chamber (50) comprises a first segment (20) affixable to the vehicle pane and a second segment (30) fitted with or subtending a snap-in recess (60) serving to detachably install the water draining chamber (50). Said water draining chamber comprises a rib (51) which is frictionally and/or geometrically interlocking into said recess, furthermore at least one seal (90) that, in the installed position of said water draining chamber, subtends a substantially flat and flush transition between the surfaces of the vehicle pane (40) and of the water draining chamber (50).

Abstract: The object of the present application relates to assembling equipment (1) and an assembling method to affix a profiled structure (11) to a pane, in particular to a motor vehicle windshield, said equipment comprising a pane feed device (3) to guide a pane into a first, predetermined assembly position, further a profiled structure's feed device (4) to guide a profiled structure (11) into a second assembly position near the first, also joining means in order to assembly the profiled structure (11) and the pane at a common assembly position, said joining means including elastic, expansive compressive means (12) which, when activated, shall expand their volume in a manner to join the pane and the profiled structure (11).
