Abstract: A sealing assembly for vehicle windscreens (10) comprises a profiled element (20) to be attached to a lower marginal area (12) of the windscreen. A spring member (25) serves for sealed locking engagement with a snapper fin (16) of a water box cover (14) and has a sealing lip (30), fitting between the bottom edge (13) of the windscreen and the upper edge (18) of the water box cover (14). The sealing lip 30 is substantially flush with external surfaces A and G and is bonded to, or integral with, an inclined surface (22) that projects outwardly from a supporting or wedge-shaped rib (21) and has a resiliently deformable, preferably wedge-shaped curved element which is clamped between, and supported by, the bottom edge (12) of the windscreen and the fin (16). The profiled element (20) and/or the sealing lip (30) can be composite elements which are soft on the outside and hard on the inside. Stiffeners 26 and 26′ increase the elasticity.
