  • Publication number: 20070182107
    Abstract: A wind redirecting and environmentally sealing gasket for use with a handle actuating mechanism associated with a vehicle door. The gasket includes a main body located over an aperture defined perimeter in the vehicle door and which is secured by a portion of the handle mechanism. A non-linear and generally three-dimensional tongue shaped portion extends from the body at a junction defined between an extending portion of the handle and the door. The tongue portion is impinged by air flow resulting from movement of a vehicle and, as a result, is redirected about the body and away from the handle and perimeter defined aperture in the vehicle's sheet metal. An engaging portion extends separately from the tongue and contacts a perimeter defining edge location of the metal.
