The invention refers to a sealing and cover strip for the B-pillar of a passenger vehicle with a support cover and a decorative cover, which have a sealing profile for a lowerable side window on at least one of their common longitudinal sides. It is the object of the present invention to improve a sealing and cover strip of the type mentioned above in such a way that the assembly effort during production of the vehicle is reduced and also the optical appearance is improved so that the sealing profile consists of two sealing halves, one respective half being connected to the decorative cover and the respective other half to the support cover.

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 division set (1) for sealing a first retractable frameless window (6) of a car (3) and a second window (2) of the car, adjacent to the first one (6), including a profile (9), to be secured to the second window (2), and a gasket (10) for sealing the two windows (2, 6). According to the present invention, the gasket (10) of a desired shape is (5) made of a TPE material encapsulated with the profile (9) of the division set (1).

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.

An encapsulated fixed window module for a motor vehicle includes a fixed window pane, a first division post profile defining a longitudinal groove configured to receive a guide carried by a movable window pane, and having an exterior wall facing a fixed pane interior surface. An over-molded material secures the first division post profile to the fixed window pane, the over-molded material includes a first over-molded portion extending between the division post exterior wall and the fixed pane interior surface and a second over-molded portion extending between the lateral wall and the interior surface. The first over-molded portion has a first thickness which is constant along a major portion of the first over-molded portion. The second over-molded portion has a second thickness which is constant along a major portion of the second portion due to a co-extruded feature on the first division post profile.
