A sealing structure, of which an upper end part makes elastic contact with a roof weather strip which is installed along a side edge of a roof and extending in a front and rear direction, includes an installation base member installed on a quarter sash provided on a front side of a quarter window glass of a retractable roof vehicle, (that lifts and lowers together with the quarter window glass). The sealing structure also includes a hollow seal part which makes elastic contact with a side window glass, and a seal lip, An upper end part has a seal wall formed thereon, which covers a front side corner part of the upper end part from an inner-cabin side, which is protrudingly formed toward an outer-cabin side and makes elastic contact with the side window glass from an inner-cabin side.

Sealing structure of weather strip for retractable roof vehicles

There is provided a seal structure for vehicle that includes a weather strip memberinstalled to a retainer memberprovided to a circumference edge of a body apertureand having a substantially 'U' shape in section. The weather strip memberincludes a primary seal lipinstalled to an outer-cabin side surface partof the retainer memberand makes a contact with an outer-cabin side surfaceof a glass panel member, and a secondary seal lipinstalled to an inner-cabin side surface partand makes a contact with an inner-cabin side surfaceof the glass panel member. The weather strip memberfurther includes a hollow seal partinstalled near a bottom surface partof the retainer memberand makes an elastic contact with an periphery endof the glass panel member

Seal structure for vehicle

A drainage structure of a die molded parton an upper side of a weather stripincludes an installation base memberinstalled on a front pillarof a retractable roof vehicle, a hollow seal partin elastic contact with a door glass, and a seal lipin elastic contact with an inner-cabin side surface of the door glassand thereby forming an eaves-trough-shaped water receiving part. A lower side wall surfaceof the hollow seal parthas a finformed on an outer-cabin side edgethereof and a bead partformed from the outer-cabin side edgeof the lower side wall surfaceto a position beyond an elastic contact position on the bead part with the door glasstoward an inner-cabin side and the bead partis inclined downward.

Drainage structure of weather strip
