A door sash surrounding a window opening of a vehicle door, the door sash including: a design part located on a vehicle exterior side; a frame part located on a vehicle interior side with respect to the design part so as to form a sash interior space surrounded by a wall; and a mounting part located inside the sash interior space and to which door-related components can be mounted. According to this door sash, it is possible to achieve high functionality around the vehicle door while improving the space efficiency of the vehicle door by effectively utilizing the sash interior space as a portion to which the door-related components are mounted.

A stabilization device stabilizes the region at the tip of a mirror triangle seal which is secured to a cover of the mirror triangle of a frameless vehicle door of a motor vehicle in the vehicle transverse direction. The stabilization device includes a fastening element for securing to the cover of the mirror triangle and a contact element for contacting the inner face of the tip of the seal. The contact element can be arranged and fixed so as to protrude upwards in the vehicle vertical direction such that the seal remains fixed to the cover when the vehicle door is opened despite a force acting inwards, which force is exerted onto the tip of the seal by a vehicle door window pane which is pretensioned inwards.

A vehicle door glass elevating/lowering device performs elevating/lowering operation of window glass by a driving force of a drive source along a sash member along one of front and rear edges of the window glass in a door sash forming a window opening. The glass elevating/lowering device includes: a guide rail on the sash member; a slider having a glass support secured to the glass and a sliding part guided movably in the elevating/lowering directions with respect to the guide rail; and a transmission member that transmits the driving force of the drive source, in which a first sliding part regulated in position by the guide rail in at least one direction of the vehicle front-rear directions and a second sliding part regulated in position by the guide rail in at least the other direction of the vehicle front-rear directions are provided at mutually different positions in the elevating/lowering directions.

A door structure comprises a door body, a window glass having a substantially rectangular shape, and a window regulator. The door body has a sash being provided to the door body before the window glass is connected to the carrier plate at one side of the door body in a front and rear direction of the vehicle, and the sash has a groove, in which only one edge of the window glass is inserted, and the door structure further includes a separating member configured to separate the window glass from the sliding face of the guide rail.

A convertible vehicle door includes a high visibility off-road frame door including a hinge assembly to hingedly couple to a vehicle body, and an exterior on-road panel configured to hingedly couple to the hinge assembly outboard of the high visibility off-road frame door. The convertible vehicle door is convertible between an on-road door configuration where the exterior on-road panel is coupled to the high visibility off-road frame door, and an off-road door configuration where the exterior on-road panel is detached from the high visibility off-road frame door.

A vehicle door assembly includes: a door panel; a window frame connected to the door panel; a glass run disposed on the window frame; and a division channel extending from the glass run in a height direction of the vehicle, wherein the glass run has a joint portion to which a top end of the division channel is connected and an extension portion extending from the joint portion toward the door panel, the division channel has a mounting bracket connected to the top end of the divisional channel, and the mounting bracket is connected to the joint portion.
