The application discloses a mounting structure for a waterproof rubber strip of a vehicle cover includes a vehicle cover and an edge rubber strip. A flat adhesive surface is provided on the edge rubber strip. The edge rubber strip is sealingly adhered and fixed with the vehicle cover through the flat adhesive surface. The mounting structure further includes a first joint. The edge rubber strip is provided with an L-shaped engaging portion. The first joint is fixedly mounted on the vehicle cover. An end of the engaging portion is embedded in the first joint, and the engaging portion is located between the first joint and the vehicle cover. The disclosure presents the following advantages that: the edge rubber strip includes the flat adhesive surface therewith, and is sealingly adhered to the vehicle cover through the flat adhesive surface, so that water does not leak from a slit between the edge rubber strip and the vehicle cover. In addition, the edge rubber strip is provided with the L-shaped engaging portion, and the first joint cooperates with the vehicle cover to clamp the engaging portion, so that the edge rubber strip is sealed and fixed on the vehicle cover, with a stable structure and a good sealing performance.

A bottom pan seal system for sealing a space between a floor of a slide-out room and a floor of a main cabin of a recreational vehicle, the bottom pan seal system having a bottom pan seal having a first leg having an outboard end and an inboard end. A second leg extends perpendicularly from the first leg. A wiper seal extends perpendicularly from the first leg opposite the second leg adjacent the outboard end. A flap seal extending perpendicularly from the second leg. A wear bar can be attached to three inboard end. The inboard end can have a wiper seal extending perpendicularly from the first leg and parallel to the wiper seal adjacent to the outboard end.

A device for applying a rubber profile to a surface comprises a robot arm moving and guiding a guide head into a position to apply the rubber profile along a defined contour on the surface. A feed device connected to the guide head feeds the rubber profile onto the surface at a defined speed. A guide element on the guide head guides the rubber profile. The feed device includes a motorized drive roller, with a profiled circumferential surface, and a counter-element with a passage for the rubber profile formed between the drive roller and the counter-element, such that the profiled circumferential surface engages the rubber profile A control unit detects the speed of the guide head where the rubber profile is applied to the surface and controls a drive roller such that the rubber profile is advanced on the basis of this speed.

The subject invention includes a fixed window assembly for a vehicle comprising a fixed glass, a trim portion having a polymeric base and a decorative member bonded to the polymeric base. An encapsulation is coupled to the fixed glass and the polymeric base to mount the trim portion in a spaced and adjacent position relative to the fixed glass. A method of manufacturing is also provided using first and second molding apparatuses. Polymeric material is injected into a first mold cavity of the first molding apparatus to form the polymeric base bonded to the decorative member. Polymeric material is injected into a second mold cavity of the second molding apparatus to form the encapsulation coupled to the fixed glass and simultaneously coupled to the polymeric base to mount the trim portion in an adjacent position to the fixed glass.

A method for charging a processing device with a profile strand which is to be fed to the processing device. The processing device, by severing strand portions and connecting the strand portions to a vehicle body, processes to form seals or edge protection strips on the vehicle body. The profile strand is fed in the strand longitudinal direction from a delivery unit used to transport the profile strand to the processing location while being unwound from a winding contained in the delivery unit. The profile strand is either unwound as a right-hand profile, which is to be applied to the vehicle body on the right, beginning with one of the two strand ends, or as a left-hand profile, which is to be applied to the vehicle body on the left, beginning with the other strand end. A delivery unit and a winding holder are provided for carrying out the method.

To reduce splash of water that has entered a gap between an upper end of a door and a vehicle body onto a locked portion. A part of a vertical side sealing portion 4 from a part including a water inlet 71 to at least a part above a hollow portion R3 is a die-molded portion. In the die-molded portion, a core removing hole 79 for removing a core used in molding is open at a cabin outer side relative to an attachment plate 80. A guide portion 90 for guiding water that has entered from the water inlet 71 to a cabin inner side relative to the core removing hole 79 is provided above the core removing hole 79 on the inner surface of the hollow portion R3.

A data processing equipment structure includes a plurality of vertical and horizontal frame components, which, together, define an equipment structure frame, and a plurality of panels disposed relative to the equipment structure frame to define a periphery. At least one of the plurality of vertical and horizontal frame components is an extruded strut having a generally uniform cross-section. The extruded strut includes an outwardly-facing channel extending along each of a pair of opposing sides of the extruded strut, at least one of which includes a set of evenly-spaced ridges, extending along each of two sides of the channel, for accommodating a threaded fastener. The extruded strut further includes one or more ledges, each having a depth sufficient to accommodate a thickness of one of the plurality of panels.

A weather seal system is provided for sealing a perimeter of a vehicle sunroof. The system includes a mounting base having an outboard first channel, and an inboard second channel spaced apart from, and extending generally parallel to, the outboard first channel. At least two connecting portions are positioned between and connecting the first and second channels. A spine is supported by the at least two connecting portions so as to reside above the first and second channels when the mounting base is mounted on a vehicle. The spine extends generally parallel to the outboard first channel. At least a first and a second opposed weather strip retention projections extend from respective opposite first and second sides of the spine. A weather strip is structured to engage the opposed first and second weather strip retention projections so as to secure the weather strip to the spine.
