Encapsulated glass frame assemblies and associated methods for forming same

An encapsulated glass assembly includes a plastic frame having at least three sides and corners, with the frame having a channel extending within its outer frame surface that includes a lower wall portion connected to a side wall portion. The outer frame surface further includes at least one upper wall portion extending from the side wall portion and extending along at least one side of the frame, each one of the at least one upper wall portions further defining a portion of the channel as a C-shaped channel. A glass panel coupled to the frame is retained within the C-shaped channel along at least one side of the frame such that the edge of the panel is adjacent to the side wall portion. An encapsulant having a Shore hardness less than the frame is bonded onto the panel and onto the frame to secure the panel to the frame.

Glass run
10220692 · 2019-03-05 · ·

A glass run couples to an outer-cabin side of a frame and includes a body and an installation member. The body includes an outer-cabin side wall, an inner-cabin side wall and a glass run side wall. The installation member is assembled on a flange having a plurality of elevated parts formed at regular intervals, has a substantially U-shaped cross-section including the glass run side wall, a body side wall and a connecting wall and has an anchoring part formed on an inner side for receiving the plurality of elevated parts on the flange. A thin part is formed by providing a concave part on an inner side of a connecting part between the body side wall and the connecting wall of the installation member.

SEALING FOR MOTOR-VEHICLES WITH INTEGRATED ANTI-PINCHING SYSTEM

A sealing and/or guiding seal for a motor-vehicle window or other movable part of a motor-vehicle, includes at least one body formed of polymeric elastomeric material supplemented with carbon-based nanofillers. The body includes an outer surface with one or more piezo-resistive areas where the polymeric material supplemented with carbon-based nanofillers has been made locally piezo-resistive by laser irradiation. One or more electric deformation sensors are defined so as to detect an interference with an unrelated body during the movement of the movable part of the motor-vehicle. The body also includes one or more conductive paths where the polymeric material supplemented with carbon-based nanofillers has been made locally electrically-conductive by means of laser irradiation, so as to define one or more electrical connection lines of the piezo-resistive areas with electrodes associated with the seal.
