Patent number: 5702148Abstract: Providing a module and a method of installing the module to a vehicle having a window opening for a translational glass pane supported and guided by a glass run channel. The module is comprised of a one-piece surround molding fully surrounding and generally defining the perimeter of the window opening. A glass run channel is secured to the surround molding. Fasteners are attached to the surround molding and attach the module to a flange on the vehicle. A belt line outer seal and one or more gimp seals may also be attached to more fully integrate the module. The module is fully assembled prior to being attached to a vehicle during final assembly, the surround molding supporting the glass run channel rather than having the glass run channel attached to a flange of the vehicle.Type: GrantFiled: February 29, 1996Date of Patent: December 30, 1997Assignee: The Standard Products CompanyInventors: Robert A. Vaughan, Willard C. Christian, John P. Zimmer, James E. Mistopoulos
