Open roof construction for a vehicle
An open roof construction for a vehicle having a roof opening in a fixed roof having a roof edge, defining the roof opening and protruding in a downward direction and further comprising a stationary part, at least one panel to open and close the roof opening. The panel is movably supported by an operating mechanism, guided in a guide rail of the stationary part, extending along at least a longitudinal side of the roof opening. The panel is movable in vertical and longitudinal directions with respect to the roof opening. The stationary part is provided with a sealing assembly comprising a first seal part capable of sealing the panel towards the fixed roof, and a second seal part capable of sealing the stationary part against an inner part of the fixed roof. The first seal part is slidably adjustable with respect to the second seal part in vertical direction.

ENCAPSULATED GLASS FRAME ASSEMBLIES AND ASSOCIATED METHODS FOR FORMING SAME
An encapsulated glass assembly includes a glass panel and a plastic frame and a clip. The frame has at least three frame sides and has a lower wall portion extending from an outer wall surface along each of the at least three frame sides. The clip has a C-shaped clip channel and is coupled to a first frame side of the frame such that a portion of the panel is retained within the C-shaped clip channel. An optional clip can be coupled to a second frame side. The plastic frame can alternatively include a C-shaped channel on the second frame side, wherein another portion of the panel is retained within the C-shaped channel. An encapsulant is bonded onto the panel, the frame, and the clip to secure the frame to the panel. The encapsulant has a Shore hardness less than the Shore hardness of the frame.
Belt molding
A belt molding includes: a molding body, which includes an inner wall, an outer wall, and a connection wall that connects an upper end of the inner wall and an upper end of the outer wall; a design lip, which is formed at the upper end of the inner wall of the molding body; and a design portion, wherein the design portion includes a first portion, which covers at least a part of the molding body, and a second portion, which covers at least a part of the design lip, and wherein a step is formed between the first portion and the second portion, such that a level of a surface of the first portion is different from a level of a surface of the second portion.

LAMINATED GLAZING COMPRISING PROFILED CLIP IN BEADING
The present invention relates to a glazing (1) and notably a vehicle glazing, comprising a laminated glazed element (2) comprising an outside sheet of glass (3), an inside sheet of glass (5) and an interlayer sheet of plastic (4) situated between said two sheets of glass, characterized in that said profiled beading (6) comprises, when viewed in cross section, an interlayer flange (61) situated between the interlayer face (32) of said outside sheet of glass (3) and the interlayer face (50) of said inside sheet of glass (5).
Window trim for use with a fixed window of a vehicle
A window trim is used with a fixed window of a vehicle. The fixed window is fixed to the vehicle and has interior and exterior surfaces and a window edge. The window trim includes a trim body having a first section having a substantially linear configuration and a second section having an at least partially arcuate configuration defining a bend such that the second section extends back toward the first section and presents a contact surface engaging the window edge. The first section extends beyond the contact surface and along the interior surface. The window trim includes a reinforcement element having first and second reinforcement portions configured to correspond to the substantially linear and at least partially arcuate configurations of the trim body, respectively. The first and second reinforcement portions continuously extend as a single unit within the first and second portions, to support the trim body.
