Abstract: A glass run for use in a sashless door-type automobile, which is capable of exhibiting excellent sealing property and being readily produced without generating any crack in connection faces. The glass run includes an upper side portion, a vertical side portion and a corner portion. In the upper side portion, a glass run section and a trim section are integrally formed. The trim section has a side wall on the side of the glass run section, a side wall on the side of an automobile body, and a bottom wall with a generally U-shaped cross-section. The corner portion includes an upper side connection part and a vertical side connection part. Connection faces between the upper side connection part of the corner portion and the upper side portion are inclined to a longitudinal direction of the upper side portion.

Abstract: A glass run capable of being readily assembled on a corner of a door frame of an automobile door with excellent sealing properties. Straight parts of the glass run include an upper side part, a front vertical side part and a rear vertical side part. In a corner part of the glass run, an outer side wall, an inner side wall, a bottom wall of a glass run section, an outer seal lip and an inner seal lip are connected to corresponding parts of the upper side part and the vertical side part by molding into an inclined or curved configuration. An exterior surface of the bottom wall of the glass run section is arranged such that an intersection point of an extension line of an end line of a front vertical side or a rear vertical side of the door frame, which is on the side of a door glass, and a trim section of the upper side part of the glass run is located on an outer peripheral side of the exterior surface of the bottom wall of the glass run section.

Abstract: An opening trim weatherstrip includes an attaching base portion that is attached to a flange formed on a vehicle body opening peripheral edge and a hollow seal portion that is provided integrally on the attaching base portion and is abutted to an outer periphery of a door frame or a door panel of a vehicle door to seal a gap between the vehicle door and the vehicle body opening peripheral edge. The hollow seal portion includes a proximal hollow portion and a distal hollow portion. The distal hollow portion includes a first distal hollow seal wall and a second distal hollow seal wall. The first distal hollow seal wall is formed in a curved surface with a curvature radius of 20 to 80 mm.

Abstract: An insert member which is made of a material which is harder than a material forming a molded portion of a glass run which is mounted on an inner side of a sash is provided relative to a bottom portion of the molded portion. The insert member is provided with an insert body, and a projecting portion which is projects from the insert body toward the sash and is fitted in a hole in the sash so as to be locked in place therein. A part of an entire edge of a distal end portion of the projecting portion, which extends in a longitudinal direction of the molded portion is chamfered. In addition, a surface of the insert body facing the sash and at least a peripheral wall portion of the projecting portion are covered with a covering portion which is made of the material forming the molded portion.

Abstract: When a molded portion of a weather strip is molded, a slit, from which a core body is taken out, is formed in a mounting base portion thereof. Also, plural blocking clips are provided at predetermined intervals along the slit. The blocking clips comprises a base portion, which constitutes a part of the mounting base portion, a fitting portion fitted into the slit, a lock portion locked on an inner surface of the mounting base portion, and an engaging projection formed in such a way as to project from the base portion. A fitting groove, into which the engaging projection is fitted, is formed in the mounting base portion. After a core body is taken out of a molded portion precursor, the blocking clip is attached thereto, so that the molded portion is obtained.

Abstract: When a molded portion of a weather strip is molded, a slit, from which a core body is taken out, is formed in a mounting base portion thereof. Also, plural blocking pieces are provided at predetermined intervals along the slit. Each of the blocking pieces has a base piece portion formed in such a way as to extend from a mounting-face side of the mounting base portion, and also has an insertion portion, which is integrally formed with the base piece portion, and a lock portion to be locked on an inner surface of the mounting base portion. After the core body is taken out of a molded portion precursor, the base piece portion of each of the blocking pieces is bent around a part thereof continuously connected to the mounting base portion, so that the insertion portion is fitted into the slit, and that the lock portion is locked on the inner surface of the molded portion precursor, which faces a hollow portion. Thus, the molded portion is obtained.

Abstract: The lower rear corner portion of a weather strip for a front door is comprised by a molded portion. The molded portion has a base portion, a side wall portion extending from the base portion to the outer periphery, and a hollow seal portion integrally formed with the side wall portion. The base portion, which is curved corresponding to a mounting face nearly parallel with an outer circumferential surface of the front door, is attached thereto by clips. The seal portion is formed like a nearly squarish member in such a way as to correspond to the shape of a metal sheet part, whose shape in plan view is nearly squarish, of the lower rear portion of the front door. Inserts are embedded in the side wall portion. Parts corresponding to the inserts are attached to the front door by clips.

Abstract: A door weather strip having an extruded member and a molded corner for connecting ends of the extruded member. The extruded member is composed of a foamed thermoplastic olefin elastomer which has an average cell diameter of 30 to 70 &mgr;m and an expansion ratio of 150 to 250%.

Abstract: A corner piece for an automobile has a resin insert covered partly with a high molecular elastic material. The resin insert has a bracket body portion and a glass run portion molded together as a unit from a synthetic resin. The bracket body and glass run portions have a common channel along their rear side, and the channel is covered with a high molecular elastic material to form a glass run, or it is fitted with a separate glass run. A reinforcing metal insert is embedded in the bottom of the channel between the bracket body portion and the glass run portion. The reinforcing metal insert reinforces a door belt line, so that the corner piece can mount a large and heavy door mirror and can also be expected to be of improved durability.
