[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a window glass spacer which is used when a vehicle window glass is mounted on a window frame of a body.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when positioning a window glass when attaching the window glass to a window frame portion of a body, for example, as shown in FIG. 9, the right and left side edges and the upper edge of a window glass g are clipped by a clip c or a fastener f. After positioning, the L-shaped rubber spacer s is interposed between the lower edge of the window glass g and the lower frame of the window frame b to define the position of the lower edge of the window glass g.

[0003]

In the above-described window glass positioning structure, since the window glass g is not restrained in the upward and leftward and rightward directions, the size of the window frame b varies between the window glass g and the window frame b. The size of the gap fluctuates between the upper and lower frame portions and the left and right frame portions of the window frame portion b, and the window molding m rises or a gap is formed between the window molding m and the window frame portion b. There is a problem that the appearance near the window frame b is deteriorated, and since the window glass g is not constrained in the thickness direction, the mounting height of the window glass g to the window frame b varies in the circumferential direction. Thus, there is a problem that the appearance of the entire window glass g is reduced. An object of the present invention is to solve the above problems.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The window glass spacer of the present invention has a prescribed surface parallel to the surface to which the substrate is fixed on the substrate fixed to the window glass. A height adjustment piece that is sandwiched between the edge and the edge is protruded, and a claw pressed by the edge of the window frame when the window glass is pushed toward the window frame near the height adjustment piece. A flexible piece having a protruding piece is formed so as to be elastically deformable in a rearward direction thereof. The hook has a hooking surface which is hooked by an edge of a window frame portion, and a slanting surface. A pressure receiving surface which is connected in an alternating manner and obliquely receives the pressing force of the edge of the window frame portion, and a window frame portion is provided between the defining surface and its extended surface and the hooking surface and its extended surface. Has a configuration in which an engagement portion is formed in which a part of the edge is engaged.

[0005]

The substrate is fixed to the window glass, the height adjustment piece protrudes from the substrate and has a prescribed surface parallel to the fixing surface of the substrate, and the height adjustment piece is formed in the vicinity of the height adjustment piece. When the window glass to which the spacer having the flexible piece and the claw piece protruding from the flexible piece is fixed is pushed toward the window frame portion, the claw piece is obliquely pressed by the edge of the window frame portion. ,
The flexible piece is bent and deformed in the rearward direction, and the hooking surface of the claw piece is hooked by the edge of the window frame portion, so that the hooking surface and the extension surface thereof and the hooking surface and the extension surface thereof intersect. The claw piece is locked to the window frame portion by engaging with the engaging portion formed therebetween, and the height adjustment piece is sandwiched between the window glass and the window frame portion, so that the window glass and the window frame portion are interposed. Is made constant by the height adjusting piece.

[0006]

According to the present invention, as described above, the window glass is prevented from moving in the thickness direction to keep the distance between the window glass and the window frame constant. Therefore, the mounting height of the window glass can be equalized, and the mounting state of the window glass and the appearance around the window frame can be improved. In addition, when the spacers are attached at predetermined positions on both side edges or the upper and lower edges of the window glass, the window glass can be positioned with the left and right gaps and the upper and lower gaps between the window glass and the window frame being equalized, and the left and right sides can be positioned. It is possible to restrict the movement of the window glass in the direction from the vertical direction to the vertical direction, and restrict the window glass in the horizontal direction or the vertical direction so as to assemble the window glass to the window frame portion. Therefore, a window mall emerges,
