Abstract: A motor vehicle seal which includes a fixing profile (5) to which a tubular sealing profile (6) is connected. At least one predetermined portion of the wall of the sealing profile has at least one outer groove (12, 14) defining an integral film hinge (13, 15) which reduces the resistance of the sealing profile (6) to compression in the direction of engagement (F) between the opening (2) and the door (D).
Abstract: The seal (4) comprises a fixing profile (5) to which a tubular sealing profile (6) is connected. At least one predetermined portion of the wall of the sealing profile has at least one substantially longitudinal outer groove (12, 14) able to define a kind of integral film hinge (13, 15) which is substantially longitudinal and able to reduce the resistance of the sealing profile (6) to compression in the direction of engagement (F) between the opening (2) and the door (D).
Abstract: The sealing strip (4) comprises an anchoring section (5) to which is connected a tubular sealing section (6) which is intended to interact with the door (D). The sealing section (6) has a plurality of vent openings (15) adapted to allow the venting towards the outside of the air contained therein when said sealing strip (6) is squeezed by the closing of the door (D). The sealing section also has a cross section adapted to apply to the door (D), when the latter is closed, an increased contact pressure over the entire part of the strip (4) which is to be applied to the upper portion (3a) of said edge (3) of the opening (2) with which the door (D) is associated, and a reduced contact pressure on the parts which are to be applied to the lower (3b) and side portions (3c, 3d) of said edge (3). The vent openings (15) of the sealing section (6) are provided only in the part of the strip (4) which is to be applied to the aforesaid second lateral portion (3d) of the strip (4).
