Abstract: Provided is a method for producing automotive glass with a member having a U-shaped cross section in a highly efficient and space-saving manner. The present invention relates to a method for producing automotive glass with a member by curing an adhesive for bonding an adherend 21 having a U-shaped cross section to an edge portion 20a of automotive glass 20, using a superheated steam generator 1. The superheated steam generator 1 includes a boiler part 2 for generating steam, a superheating unit 3 for superheating steam generated in the boiler part 2, and a superheated steam chamber 10 having a groove portion 111 for covering the edge portion 20a of the automotive glass 20 and including superheated steam ejection portions 12 for ejecting superheated steam supplied from the superheating unit 3.

Abstract: Provided is a process for producing an automotive glass with a member in a highly efficient and space-saving manner.

Abstract: Three collar groups 6A through 6C, each group comprising collars 5a through 5b, 5c through 5e and 5f through 5h which are thin walled and close to each other are provided in a spaced manner in a piston sliding direction. A first group 6A which is provided at the front most end of the piston head 5 comprises two collars 5a and 5b. The front collar 5a which is in contact with the liquid drug has a larger diameter than that of the rear collar 5b. First and third collar groups 6B and 6C which are at the rear of the first collar group 6A comprise three collars 5c to 5e and 5f to 5h, respectively. The intermediate collars 5d and 5g have larger diameters than those of the front and rear collars 5c and 5e; and 5f and 5h, respectively. A support collar 5i is provided at the rear of the collar groups 6B and 6C in such a manner that it is spaced therefrom. The support collar 5i has a thick walled portion x at its base excepting the peripheral edge thereof.

Abstract: A vehicle window comprising: a window glass; a glass holder comprising a groove in which the window glass is inserted to be held by being nipped, and comprising a resin material selected from a natural grade of polybutylene terephthalate, a natural grade of a polyethylene terephthalate, a natural grade of a polybutylene terephthalate containing glass fibers, or a natural grade of polyethylene terephthalate containing glass fibers; and a one-liquid adhesive layer formed between the window glass and the groove by applying a liquid comprising a urethane and an epoxy-silane coupling agent.

Abstract: A vehicle window glass, comprising a vehicle window glass; a glass holder provided with a groove to which the vehicle window glass is inserted and held by being nipped and made by a resin material selected from groups of a natural grade of a polybutylene terephthalate resin or a natural grade of a polyethylene terephthalate resin, or a resin containing glass fibers in the natural grade of the polybutylene terephthalate resin or a resin containing glass fibers in the natural grade of the polyethylene terephthalate resin; and one-liquid type urethane adhesive layer containing a silane coupling agent formed between the vehicle window glass of the groove of said glass holder and the glass holder.

Abstract: A sunroof assembly comprises a transparent member having first and second peripheral edge portions. A first supporting member is connected to the first peripheral edge portion of the transparent member. The first supporting member has a first ridge portion defining a supporting edge disposed on the first peripheral edge portion of the transparent member, a second ridge portion, and a groove disposed between the first and second ridge portions. A second supporting member is connected to the second peripheral edge portion of the transparent member. The second supporting member has a recessed portion, a first flange portion extending generally perpendicular to the recessed portion, and a second flange portion disposed in the groove of the first supporting member and extending generally perpendicular to the first flange portion.

Abstract: A sun-roof assembly comprises a transparent member having first and second peripheral edge portions. A first supporting member is connected to the first peripheral edge portion of the transparent member and has a first supporting edge disposed on the first peripheral edge portion of the transparent member, a second supporting edge and a web portion extending from the first and second supporting edges. A second supporting member is connected to the second peripheral edge portion of the transparent member and has first and second supporting edges and an inflated portion disposed between the first and second supporting edges.

Abstract: A glass holder provided with a pair of opposed side walls and a bottom which define an open-ended slot for receiving an end of a glass pane. The opposed side walls include a piston in engagement with an anti-flow member inserted into the slot so as to function as a dam for closing at least one end of the lost, and the bottom has a hole having a volume enough to receive the anti-flow member. When the holder is mounted on the glass pane, the anti-flow member is attached within the slot whereby an unhardened fluid adhesive filled within the slot is retained within the slot by the anti-flow member to prevent useless protuberences resulting from the outflow adhesive from being formed. As the glass pane is inserted into the slot, the anti-flow member is escaped into the hole.

Abstract: A window pane holder which retains the bottom end of a window pane, slidably mounted in a sash on a door of an automotive vehicle, and which is connected with an elevating unit for lifting and lowering the window pane. The holder comprises a framework formed of a hard synthetic resin and including a pair of opposite sidewalls and a bottom, the sidewalls defining a slot therebetween for receiving the window pane. The holder also comprises an extension downwardly depending from the framework. At least in the end portions of the slot, the pair of sidewalls are provided with ribs extending into such slot portions and having surfaces which are adapted to bear against the window pane as it is received into the slot so as to leave a clearance between the sidewalls and the window pane in which to receive an adhesive.
