A door weather strip for a motor vehicle, which can be readily produced, and readily and securely attached to a corner of a door frame without coming off the same. In an upper side section and an upper side part of a corner section of the door weather strip, the door weather strip includes an exterior weather strip, an interior weather strip and a connecting section. The exterior weather strip includes an exterior base portion for attachment to the door frame or a door molding, and an exterior seal portion for contacting a door opening portion of a vehicle body when a door is closed, and the interior weather strip includes an interior base portion and an interior seal portion. A reinforcing rib is formed in a rear surface of the exterior base portion in the upper side part of the corner section.

Door weather strip

A weather strip includes a trim body having a generally U-shaped cross section, a hollow seal portion that protrudes from an outside surface of the trim body, and a holding lip formed on the trim body so as to extend from an inside surface of the trim body toward the inside of the trim body. The weather strip is mounted on the vehicle body such that the trim body is held by a flange provided at a periphery of a door opening of a motor vehicle. The weather strip is formed by extrusion molding such that the length of the holding lip is changed in a stepped manner in accordance with the thickness of the flange.

Weather strip having variable length holding lip

A door weather strip, which is of annular form as a whole, includes a base section and a hollow sealing section as its basic constituent elements. The portion of the door weather strip corresponding to the corner part of the upper portion on the center pillar side of the front door provides a molded section, and any other section provides a continuously formed extrusion section. On the portion other than the lower side portion in the peripheral portion of the opening section for the front door of a vehicle body, the ridge portion as along the peripheral portion thereof is provided. In the closed state of the front door, the sealing section is elastically deformed so as to be pressed and extended in opposite directions away from the top portion of the ridge portion.

Sealing structure of opening section in vehicle

A seal structure for a front door of a motor vehicle provided with a door mirror bracket at a front end of a door belt line is composed of a roof weather strip attached along a door opening of a car body, and a door weather strip attached along a periphery of a door panel. The door weather strip is provided with an end portion covering a lower portion of the door mirror bracket and a front upper end of a door inner panel to which a lower end of the door mirror bracket is jointed. An upper part of the end portion has a thickness large enough to fill the step between the door mirror bracket and the door inner panel whereby the end portion of the door weather strip has a continuous smooth surface from its lower part to its upper part to effect a good seal with the opposed roof weather strip when the front door is closed.

Seal structure for motor vehicle

A weather strip attached along a door opening of a motor vehicle for sealing between the door opening and a periphery of a door glass has a strip-shaped extruded portion, and a molded end portion jointed to a lower end of the extruded portion. The strip-shaped extruded portion has a longitudinally extending tubular main seal portion and a lip-shaped seal portion which defines a concave groove with the main seal portion. The molded end portion has an extended concave groove extending from the concave groove of the strip-shaped extruded portion to a rear side edge of the molded end portion. During running of a vehicle in rainy weather or during washing of the vehicle, water leaking into the concave groove flows along the extended concave groove and is drained out therefrom without staying at an end of the extended concave groove thereby preventing water from intruding into a vehicle compartment when a vehicle door is opened or closed.

Weather strip for motor vehicle

In a door glass weather strip for vehicles which is made up of an installation member to be installed in a door sash; a bend lip projected from the installation member to be contacted with an inner surface of a door glass; and a seal member connected to the installation member having a sash engaging wall connected to the installation member, an outer lip and an inner lip projected from each side of the sash engaging wall, and a seal wall which connects each tip end of the outer lip and the inner lip for sealingly holding the edge of the door glass, an interior angle between the sash engaging wall and the inner lip being obtuse angle.

Door glass weather strip for vehicles

A door weather strip attached along a periphery of a rear door panel of a motor vehicle has a strip-shaped tubular main portion and a molded rear end portion connected to a rear end of the strip-shaped tubular main portion. The molded rear end portion is attached over a rear upper end portion of a door inner panel so as to cover a child lock lever hole formed in the rear upper end portion, and has an opening at the position corresponding to the child lock lever hole thereby enabling a child lock lever to slidably project therefrom.

Door weather strip for motor vehicle

A water removing structure of a roof weather strip to be installed to a roof side section and a front pillar section of a hard top car. The roof weather strip is composed of a main seal member which encloses and seals a circumferential edge portion of a door glass, and an auxiliary seal member top end of which abuts on the car inside surface of the door glass for sealing, and top end portion of the front door is provided with a mirror bracket of triangular shape which closes an angle containing portion between the door belt line and the front pillar when the door is closed. A water removing groove is formed on the mirror bracket from position between the abutting portions of the main and auxiliary seal members of the roof weather strip to position leading to the door panel inside of the front door so as to guide water. Water entering in a cylindrical space constituted by the main and auxiliary seal members and the car inside surface of the door glass or the mirror bracket flows through the water removing groove into the door panel.
