A weatherseal assembly, and the associated method, is adapted for receipt on an associated vehicle, and includes a first attachment portion for securing the weatherseal to the associated vehicle, and a protrusion facing outwardly from the weatherseal. An elongated reveal is dimensioned for receipt over the weatherseal protrusion and faces outwardly from the vehicle when mounted thereon. The reveal has a substantially C-shape. A clip is dimensioned for interconnecting the reveal to the weatherseal protrusion, and the clip includes a retention portion that is movable between different, first and second positions such that in the first position, the retention portion has a first dimension when the reveal engages the clip, and in the second position, the retention portion has a different, second dimension when the reveal is engaged to the clip for securing the reveal to the weatherseal assembly.

A door carrier includes a body formed of a first material, the body including an edge extending around a perimeter of the body. The door carrier includes a seal having a proximal end affixed to the edge and a distal end spaced from the proximal end, the seal being formed of a second material more resilient than the first material.

A sealing module for a motor vehicle, comprising at least one elongated profile and at least one seal configured to cooperate with a window of the vehicle, and further comprising a support for supporting at least one electronic equipment, such as a camera. The support can be integral with the profile.

A vehicle door glass assembly capable of regulating a position of a door glass may include a door frame forming a vehicle door; a garnish joined to a periphery of the door frame to finish an outer side face of the door frame; the door glass installed so as to be raised or lowered within the door frame; a glass run assembled to the door frame to support a periphery of the door glass; and a slider installed in an inner side face of the door glass to guide a raising or lowering movement of the door glass, where the garnish is provided with a restraint device configured to prevent the slider from moving in a longitudinal direction of a vehicle.

The present disclosure provides an attachment system of a weather strip, including: a supply unit configured to unwind the weather strip that winds with a predetermined length and to supply the weather strip, an attaching unit configured to attach the weather strip to a surface of a component by the adhesive layer and to cut the weather strip at a predetermined position, a tag provided in the supply unit that is configured to store position information of the defective portion of the weather strip detected during the weather strip extruding process, a reader antenna provided during the weather strip assembling process that is configured to receive the position information of the defective portion, and a controller configured to control a cutting position of the weather strip discharging side of the attaching unit based on the position information of the defective portion.

A method for manufacturing a door sash formed from a single plate material includes: a roll-forming step of providing a gap portion between the plate materials forming a stepped section and roll-forming a periphery of an end portion of a plate material extending from a tubular section, so as to come into contact along the plate material forming the stepped section; a press working step of pressing the end portion of the plate material to a position where the end portion does not protrude further toward the side on which a weather strip is fitted than a surface of an overlapping section and a surface of the tubular section on the side on which the weather strip is fitted, while crushing the gap portion; and a welding step of continuously laser-welding the overlapping section along a longitudinal direction of the door sash.

In attachment system provided with an industrial robot having a hand movable at an arm tip, a base is attached to the hand. The base supports a plurality of suction pads such that angles of virtual suction surfaces including suction pad ends intersect each other in a hand operating space. Under control of a control device, the respective pads suction a sealing material at the respective suction surfaces, and the position and orientation of the base is controlled in the operating space such that partial suction surfaces face a designated attachment position on the object. Further, an attachment surface of the sealing material is partially attached to the designated attachment position on the object, in a state the sealing material to part of which the partial suction pads are suctioned is still faced to the designated attachment position. Such steps are repeated for the remaining attachment positions of the object.

A slider window assembly for a vehicle includes at least one fixed window panel and a movable window panel that is movable along an upper rail and a lower rail at the at least one fixed window panel between a closed position and an opened position. The upper rail includes a channel, and a filler is disposed in the channel of the upper rail. The filler includes a filler body having opposite side walls, and the filler includes lips established along respective ones of the side walls. The lips are extruded onto and along the filler body. The lips include a compressible and flexible material and provide a dampening and cushioning function at the movable window panel when the movable window panel is disposed in the channel of the upper rail.

A vehicle body member manufacturing method and a vehicle body member joint portion seal structure are obtained that are capable of suppressing sinking of a sealing material filled into a recess formed by a first member and a second member. A sealing material is filled into a recess provided between a general face of an upper end portion of center pillar R/F and a general face of side rail R/F. After the sealing material has cured, sealing material is filled into the recess on top of the initial sealing material. This enables the surface of the sealing material to be leveled, thus enabling sinking at the surface of the sealing material to be suppressed.

A seal assembly includes a body portion defining a mounting channel for receiving a vehicle flange. A base of the body portion defines an outer surface of the body portion with the outer surface defining a first axis of curvature adapted to correspond with a contour of the flange. The seal assembly further includes a sealing lip portion co-extruded with the body portion and defining a notch having a notch configuration, an element disposed in the notch and pre-formed to have an element configuration corresponding to at least a part of the notch configuration, and a molding material molded to a back surface of the element, secured to the sealing lip portion within the notch, and extending across the notch, with the element and the molding material defining a contour lip portion that in combination with the sealing lip portion defines an external sealing lip of the seal assembly.
