  • Patent number: 11752672
    Abstract: The invention relates to a molding tool having a tool upper part (10) and a tool lower part (20), having a glass pane (30) arranged between tool upper part (10) and tool lower part (20) and at least one sheet metal insert part (32; 321, 322, 323, 324) that can be connected to the glass pane (30) by means of foam overmolding (36) made of plastic. For an increased process reliability when connecting sheet metal insert parts (32; 321, 322, 323, 324) to panes (30), the invention provides that at least one sensor (40) for detecting the position of the sheet metal insert part (32; 321, 322, 323, 324) is arranged on the tool upper part (10) and/or the tool lower part (20) on the side of the glass pane (30) that is located opposite the at least one sheet metal insert part (32; 321, 322, 323, 324).

  • Patent number: 6826876
    Abstract: A glass pane with plastic bordering for fixed side and rear windows as well as moonroofs of a vehicle. The glass pane comprises a groove formed in the plastic bordering adapted to receive a resilient sealing profile. The plastic bordering with the sealing profile press fit in the groove is adapted to secure the glass pane within a chassis of a vehicle as well as provide weather sealing. The contour of the plastic bordering is adapted to accurately locate and self-center the glass pane within a receiving chassis.

  • Patent number: 6099779
    Abstract: A cover unit for a vehicle roof, which can be opened, has a cover plate, a reinforcing frame arranged therebelow, and a seal-receiving frame, injection molded around the outer periphery of the cover plate, the seal-receiving frame having an encircling groove for receiving a peripheral seal at its outer periphery. In a process for the manufacture of a such cover, an inwardly directed part of the peripheral seal directly serves as a core which forms the seal-receiving groove by which it is detachably interlocked with the seal-receiving frame.
