Water drop induction structure of elevating glass

Abstract

Water droplet guiding mechanism for a height-adjustable auto window (1) has a vertically extending holding section (2) that holds the window thanks to opposing side edges (1a), a belt line shaping piece with a near end that attaches to a lower frame of the window opening (20) on the outer side of the vehicle and a distal end that contacts the window. Projections (3) form both end sections of a lower edge (1c) of the window and extend downwards in order to allow water droplets to fall off.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a water drop guiding structure of a lift glass which can make the water drop immersed in the lift glass along the window part drop to a desired position. Background technique [0002] Some automobiles have doors with built-in drive mechanisms for automatically raising and lowering the windows. These driving mechanisms are equipped with electric components such as motors, so measures are taken to prevent them from being exposed to water such as rainwater. As one example, in the drainage structure of an automobile door described in Japanese Patent Document 1, the lower end portion of the window glass is formed in an arc shape with a high central portion, and a water guide groove is provided along the arc. Also, both end portions of the gutter are connected to drain rails provided in the door. Therefore, the water that penetrates along the window glass is directed from the water channel to the drain rail. [0003] Japan...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

As a result, more force is required to move the lift glass, increasing the load on the driving structure

In addition, it also becomes the cause of wear on the lip of the guide rail.
