Patent number: 7220471Abstract: An insert film having a printed part is integrally molded to a surface of a panel body made of a resin by an insert molding. The printed part is printed on a first binder layer applied to a resin film and also is formed on the resin film in a state such of being sealed with the first binder layer and a second binder layer applied on the printed part. The printed part is formed as a trimming portion (blackout) along a peripheral portion of the resin film, and an area is formed between the peripheries of the first binder layer and the second binder layer and the periphery of the resin film.Type: GrantFiled: July 27, 2000Date of Patent: May 22, 2007Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyoda Jidoshokki SeisakushoInventors: Kotaro Oami, Masaaki Suzumura

Patent number: 7156455Abstract: A sunroof panel is composed of a resin panel and a weather strip. The resin panel is a plate-like resin panel and has a vehicle interior surface and a vehicle exterior surface, which are substantially parallel to each other. The resin panel is attached to a frame by means of a urethane adhesive. The resin panel has a peripheral portion, which extends from a portion sticking to the urethane adhesive to a side face, and a central portion surrounded by the peripheral portion. The peripheral portion is thinner than the central portion. The side face of the resin panel is formed so as to be inclined inwardly toward the vehicle interior surface. An approach-R portion is formed on a peripheral portion of the vehicle exterior surface.Type: GrantFiled: March 21, 2005Date of Patent: January 2, 2007Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyota JidoshokkiInventors: Yasushi Iimori, Kotaro Oami, Yoji Yano, Yusuke Kagotani

Patent number: 6490833Abstract: A weather strip is attached to the periphery of an organic glass plate. The organic glass plate is supported by a slide panel. A space is defined between the weather strip and an end face of the periphery of the organic glass plate. The space accommodates thermal expansion of the organic glass plate. A tube is located at a corner of the weather strip. Foreign matter trapped in the space moves from the space to the tube and then is discharged from the space.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 1999Date of Patent: December 10, 2002Assignees: Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd., Kabushiki Kaisha Toyoda Jidoshokki SeisakushoInventors: Teruhito Goto, Kazuyuki Hayashi, Akira Matsuura, Yasuo Oyama, Kotaro Oami

Patent number: 6474976Abstract: To provide a film holding apparatus for an injection mold which is capable of surely holding a protective film on a specific position of a mold surface of the injection mold. The film holding apparatus for holding an inner film on the mold surface of the injection molds consisting of two coupled molds having substantially-vertical coupled surfaces thereof includes two positioning pins that can hang an upper edge side of the inner film on an upper edge portion of the mold surface of the mold, and upper and lower vacuum opening portions for film adsorption disposed so as to interpose the positioning pins therebetween from the upper and lower sides. The upper vacuum opening portion is formed in a line, which extends along an upper edge of the mold surface.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2000Date of Patent: November 5, 2002Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyoda Jidoshokki SeisakushoInventors: Kotaro Oami, Masaaki Suzumura

Patent number: 6455809Abstract: A resin window 1 with a conductor in which a conductor print 3 is interposed between a resin panel 2 and a resin film 4 joined to one side of the resin panel, includes a metal film 6 provided on one side of the resin film 4 that is joined to the resin panel 2. The metal film 6 is connected to a conductor print 3 at a portion thereof and is exposed through an opening 5 formed in the resin film 4. The resin panel 2 has integrally formed fixing pins 7 that protrude to the outer surface side of the resin film 4 through the metal film 6. A terminal 8 is secured to a resin window 1 by heat treating the fixing pins 7 with a mounting base 8a of the terminal 8 made of electrically conductive material being overlaid on the metal film 6.Type: GrantFiled: June 12, 2000Date of Patent: September 24, 2002Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyoda Jidoshokki SeisakushoInventors: Hiroshi Kuno, Akiteru Nishio, Kotaro Oami, Yasushi Iimori

Patent number: 6334646Abstract: A weather strip is attached to the periphery of a plate and a frame. A hollow space is formed in the weather strip. A first groove is formed in the weather strip to engage the plate. A through hole connects the first groove to the hollow space. A drain hole extends downward from the hollow space. Water sometimes enters the first groove, and the through hole and the drain hole drain this water. The arrangement of the various parts facilitates extrusion and simplifies the manufacturing process.Type: GrantFiled: May 5, 2000Date of Patent: January 1, 2002Assignee: Kabushiki Kaisha Toyoda Jidoshokki SeisakushoInventor: Kotaro Oami
