The present disclosure relates to a sealing element for a front vehicle door having at least one fastening section by means of which the sealing element can be fastened to a frame element of the vehicle door. The sealing element includes at least one channel section forming a drainage channel between a frame element of the vehicle door and a side wall support of the vehicle frame. The sealing element includes a cover section that partially covers a clearance disposed along an exterior side of the channel section. The sealing element covers at least half the width of the clearance of the channel section.

A retractable truck bed cover having an array of parallel aluminum slats joined together by connective hinges including leading and trailing edge configuration for improving the security of the cover by covering and concealing the seam between adjacent slats while improving the connective hinge's resistance to the effects of aging and/or exposure to temperature fluctuations. The truck bed cover connective hinge slat is designed to be in an array of discrete slats, which are joined to one another by means of joiner members secured at each end to slat end caps. The distal ends of the joiner members are attached to slat end caps at the distal ends of the slats, thereby preventing the joiner members from shrinking in relationship to the slats due to aging and/or exposure to temperature fluctuations.

A sealing plug profile for fitting to an arrangement for a vehicle roof has a sealing element and a baseboard which is coupled to the sealing element and which extends along a longitudinal axis (LF). The baseboard may have a first base hollow space and a second base hollow space and a central web which separates the first and the second base hollow space from each other in a predetermined manner so that the first and the second base hollow space form two mutually separate hollow spaces within the baseboard, which are each delimited in a predetermined manner along the longitudinal axis (LF) by the central web and an edge of the baseboard.

A door weather strip for an automobile couples to a flange of a door of the automobile. The door weather strip includes an installation base member, a hollow seal member, an air vent, and a sponge layer. The installation base member couples to the flange. The hollow seal member is integrally molded with the installation base member, and makes elastic contact with an automobile body of the automobile when the door is in a closed position. The hollow seal member includes a first wall, a second wall, a third wall, and a fourth wall. The air vent is provided on the hollow seal member, and is used to release air from the hollow seal member. The sponge layer is provided on an inner peripheral surface of the hollow seal member except the air vent, and has a specific gravity lower than the first, second, third, and fourth walls.
