본 고안은 차량용 웨더 스트립에 관한 것으로서, 특히 차체에 장착된 차체측 웨더 스트립과, 상기 차체에 개폐 가능케 결합된 도어의 가장자리에 장착된 도어측 웨더 스트립을 가진 차량에 있어서, 상기 차체측 웨더 스트립 또는 도어측 웨더 스트립의 적어도 어느 하나에는 도어의 폐쇄시 공간부내로 공기를 공급하여 팽창시키는 공기 공급 수단과, 도어의 개방시 공간부내의 공기를 대기 중으로 배출시키는 공기 배출 수단이 설치된 것을 특징으로 한다. The present invention relates to a vehicle weather strip, particularly in a vehicle having a body side weather strip mounted to a vehicle body and a door side weather strip mounted to an edge of a door coupled to the vehicle body so as to be openable and closed, the body side weather strip or At least one of the door-side weather strips is provided with air supply means for supplying and expanding air into the space portion when the door is closed, and air discharge means for discharging air in the space portion to the atmosphere when the door is opened. 따라서, 본 고안에서는 도어의 폐쇄 시에는 웨더 스트립의 내측으로 공기가 공급됨으로써 팽창되어 긴밀한 상태가 유지되고, 도어의 개방 시에는 공간부내의 공기가 대기 중으로 배출됨으로써 이후의 도어를 폐쇄시키는 것이 가능하여 차량의 외부로부터 소음이나 바람 및 빗물 등이 실내로 침입하는 것을 방지하여 정숙하고 더욱 안락한 실내를 유지할 수 있게 된다. Therefore, in the present invention, when the door is closed, air is supplied to the inside of the weather strip to expand and maintain a close state, and when the door is opened, air in the space part is discharged to the atmosphere, so that the door can be closed afterwards. By preventing noise, wind and rainwater from entering the interior of the vehicle from the outside, it is possible to maintain a quiet and more comfortable interior.

The seal, for use between car bodywork and a door, has a lower section (30) which clips on to the bodywork and an upper, tubular section (20). This is made from flexible material and has a chamber (22) filled with a liquid or gas which can escape via a bore (26) in a partition (27) into a second chamber as the section is compressed.

Sealing or trim strip with pivoting limbs to grip a flange

A sealing or trim strip 2 for gripping a flange 22 has a foot extending from an interior side wall. The foot comprises a flexible supporting part 18 and a gripping body 16, the body being pivotal on the support. Placement of the strip onto a flange causes part of the gripping body to rotate away from the flange surface, pivoting the remainder of the body into firmer contact with the flange in order to resist removal of the strip. Several feet may be incorporated into the strip and they may be T-shaped. A foot may include a blocking means 16D to prevent excessive rotation, which means may engage with the strip wall. Alternatively, the blocking means may be mounted on the wall (figure 7g). The gripping surface 16C of a foot may be curved, and the foot may have a second attachment to the wall (34, figure 7j).
