A vehicle body upper structure includes a pair of first structures that constitute portions on both sides in a width direction of a vehicle body in an upper portion of the vehicle body; and a second structure that extends in the width direction and is joined at opposing ends to the first structures so as to define at least a part of a window opening, to which a windshield is attachable in cooperation with the first structures. The second structure includes a low-rigid portion that is joined to one of the pair of first structures in a first area of the one of the pair of first structures, and a high-rigid portion that is separated in distance in the width direction from the first area and that has higher rigidity than the low-rigid portion. The low-rigid portion being joined to one of the first structures via the damping material.

A vehicle window including a panel having a first surface and a second surface and at least a window holder for firmly retaining the panel to a lifting system including an inner member having a bonding part to be bonded to a first surface of the panel, an outer member having a fixing part to be fixed to the lifting system and an assembling means. The bonding part of the inner member is bonded with a bonding material to the first surface and the outer member is assembled to the inner member via the assembling means to clutch the panel.

Top side view windows are canted between a vehicle cabin roof and sides along a length of the vehicle, truncating a corner between the roof and sides. The top side view windows may open outwardly from an interior of the cabin, and may open outwardly and upwardly similar to a safari windshield. Hinges and a latch allow movement of the top side view windows, with the latch securing the respective window in an open or closed position. The latch may include a strap with a flexible end wrapping around interior trim, optionally with a magnet at the tip to hold the flexible end in position when wrapped. A rigid portion of the strap holds the window when in the open position, and may include openings receiving protrusions from the interior trim or teeth engaging with a tip of a rachet cam.

A panel for use in an open roof construction for a vehicle comprises a substantially rectangular panel main body made of transparent material, and at least one elongated reinforcing bracket positioned at least partly in the vicinity of an edge of said panel main body and firmly connected thereto. The panel bracket is made of a material which is thinner than that of the material of the panel main body and includes a structure to fix the reinforcing bracket to an operating mechanism configured to support the panel and control movements thereof. The edge of the panel main body comprises at least an inward recess and the reinforcing bracket comprises at least an upward step into the recess. The upward step extends along at least a portion of the recess and is dimensioned to accommodate a part of the operating mechanism under it.

A vehicle may include a vehicle body, a door, a window frame, a window panel, a lower support and a stopper. The window panel may be provided in the window frame, configured to be manually raised and lowered, and supported to be movable between an upper limit position where the window panel closes an opening of the window frame and a lower limit position where the window panel opens the opening of the window frame. The lower support may include a groove. The groove may be configured to receive a lower edge of the window panel when the window panel is located at the lower limit position. The stopper may be disposed in the groove of the lower support and include an abutting surface configured to abut the lower edge of the window panel, wherein the abutting surface may be curved to protrude upward.

A portable windshield alignment and installation device and method of setting windshields mounts to a windshield wiper post to mark the position of a removed windshield, so that a replacement windshield can be set in the exact same position. The tool comprises a bracket having a base plate, a slide plate, and a face plate. The base plate mounts to a slave post, and the slide plate abuts a replacement windshield. The plates form longitudinal slots. A wiper post panel has an aperture. The aperture enables passage of the windshield wiper post for mounting. A face plate having a stud overlays the slide plate to support the replacement windshield to replace the windshield, and also protect the replacement windshield. The studs align with, and slides through the slots to enable horizontal and vertical adjustments relative to wiper post and replacement windshield.

A quarter window assembly for a soft top cover assembly that is removable. The quarter window assembly is connectable to the soft cover assembly. The quarter window assembly has a hard corner assembly mountable to features connected to a vehicle. The hard corner assembly is an injection molded plastic assembly. The quarter window assembly also has a panel carrying at least one window, and the panel is secured to the hard corner assembly.

An application device for a viscous adhesive comprising a base body having a first inlet for a viscous adhesive; and a nozzle body which is rotatable about an axis with respect to the base body and which surrounds a portion of the base body radially on the outside with respect to the axis, wherein, via the interaction of a first dynamic seal with a separating agent chamber, in which a separating agent is stored, the introduction of humidity into the adhesive before it exits the nozzle opening is effectively prevented.
