A vehicle includes a window having an internal opening defined by an angled edge forming a clear space generally shaped as a truncated pyramid. An operable window panel is slidable relative to the internal opening to define open and closed positions. A compressible elastic sealing member is disposed along the angled edge, wherein the sealing member defines a substantially convex profile when the operable window panel in the open position. A guide assembly is positioned adjacent an interior surface of the window and adapted to guide the operable window panel between the open and closed positions. The closed position is defined by an outer surface of the operable window panel being co-planar with an exterior surface of the window. The closed position is further characterized by the sealing member being deformed to occupy at least the seam defined between the window and the operable window panel.

The invention relates to a glazed device intended to be assembled to a bodywork casing (11) in order to form a motor vehicle door, comprising at least one movable glazed panel (121) that bears, on its face oriented towards the inside of the vehicle, at least one guide shoe (25) each of which is mounted so as to slide with respect to a guide rail (22A). Said guide rail (22A) has a guide portion of substantially circular cross section, having a radius R1, that is open to allow the passage of a connecting portion of at least one of said shoes (25), and at least one of said shoes has at least one portion for locking in the longitudinal direction of said vehicle (X), substantially ovoid and having a maximum radius R2 that is substantially greater than the radius R1, said locking portion being deformable so as to pass into said guide portion of the rail.

The present invention concerns an elastomer run seal suitable for receiving a sliding window of a motor vehicle side door, and a sealing module comprising said seal, said window and means for guiding the window rigidly connected to the window in order to slidingly guide same in an offset manner in a groove of the seal. Said seal (1) is suitable for receiving a window (V) mounted laterally flush with an outer surface of a vertical edge element of a frame (2) of the door adjacent to the window chosen from an upright of the frame and a vertical outer trim (2a) provided on the frame, the seal comprising at least one ascending strand and one top strand, said ascending strand having an outer branch (12) to be mounted in sealing contact with the vertical element and the window, an inner branch (11) to be mounted on the frame and a connecting branch (13), the seal comprising a groove (12a) receiving, in a vertically sliding manner, means (10) for guiding the window rigidly connected to the inner face (Vi) of same. According to the invention, said groove is formed on the outer branch and is suitable for being positioned facing the vertical element.

A holding structure of a glass run for an automobile is capable of holding the glass run with a lower channel with excellent insertion workability to hold a door glass securely. In the holding structure of the glass run with the lower channel, the glass run has a first side wall, a second side wall, a third side wall and a fourth side wall, and has a generally rectangular cross section. One part of the side walls is composed of a material with rigidity higher than those of remaining parts of the side walls. A glass slider is attached to an end edge of the door glass below the belt line, and a tip end part of the glass slider, which is continuous with a main part of the glass slider via an opening part of the glass run, is held with the glass run.
