text: an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the drawings . in the following description , unless otherwise specified , “ front ” and “ rear ” refer to the front and rear in the traveling direction of the vehicle , and “ top ” and “ bottom ” refer to the top and bottom in the vertical direction . in fig1 , reference numeral 1 denotes a vehicle which uses an attachment structure for a window glass and a glass molding according to the present invention , reference numeral 2 denotes a rear quarter glass serving as the window glass , reference numeral 3 denotes a hollow sealing lip which attaches to the front edge of the rear quarter glass 2 and closely contacts the rear edge of a rear side door 4 , and reference numeral 5 denotes a glass molding which , with the exception of the front edge , is attached to the peripheral edge of the rear quarter glass 2 . fig2 and fig3 are , respectively , an exploded perspective view of a glass assembly including the rear quarter glass 2 and the glass molding 5 and the like viewed from the reverse side ( the inside of the vehicle body ), and a perspective view showing the glass assembly in its assembled state . fig4 is a cross - sectional view along the line a - a in fig1 . the rear quarter glass 2 has a substantially triangular shape , of which the angular portion facing the rear of the vehicle body is curved in a circular arc shape , the base is substantially parallel with the traveling direction of the vehicle , and the side adjoining the base is inclined downward from the roof towards the rear of the vehicle body . the rear quarter glass 2 is attached to a rearward vehicle panel 6 . a vehicle side glass fitting section 7 which is recessed in a stepped manner , is provided at the position where the rear quarter glass 2 attaches to the vehicle panel 6 . the hollow sealing lip 3 is formed so as to have a substantially constant cross - sectional shape along the longitudinal direction , and as shown in fig2 , the base side thereof is adhesively fastened to the front end of the rear quarter glass 2 . furthermore , glass clips 8 are adhesively secured to the front edge of the reverse side of the rear quarter glass 2 at two vertically spaced locations . the glass clips 8 each have a foot section 8 a which protrudes towards the inside of the vehicle body , and these foot sections 8 a are each inserted into a positioning hole ( not shown ) on the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 . on the other hand , the glass molding 5 is composed of a plurality of components , most significantly , a thin - walled metallic sheet material exposed primarily to the vehicle exterior . the overall shape of this glass molding 5 , as shown in fig2 , is substantially a u shape consisting of a pair of substantially straight regions ( substantially straight sections ) a 1 and a 2 corresponding to the base and rear oblique side of the rear quarter glass 2 , and a curved region ( curved section ) b which connects the substantially straight regions a 1 and a 2 . at the outside peripheral edge of the glass molding 5 , an elastic lip 30 ( molding elasticizing device ) is provided in an integral manner , the edge of which closely contacts a peripheral wall 7 a of the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 . consequently , the peripheral wall 7 a applies a repulsion force to the glass molding 5 in a direction away from the peripheral wall 7 a . anchoring molding clips 10 with foot sections 10 a which protrude towards the inside of the vehicle body , are provided near the end of each of the substantially straight regions a 1 and a 2 at the open end of the u , and on part of the curved region b . the foot sections 10 a of these anchoring molding clips 10 are each inserted into a positioning hole ( not shown ) on the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 . furthermore , the substantially straight regions a 1 and a 2 of the glass molding 5 are formed so as to have a box shape in cross - section which is open on the reverse side as shown in fig4 . a plurality of molding clips 11 and 12 are attached to the inside of the open part on reverse face of the substantially straight regions a 1 and a 2 . fig5 is a perspective view showing a molding clip 11 attached to the substantially straight region a 1 . as shown in this figure and in fig4 , in the molding clip 11 , a pair of sandwiching pieces 14 and 15 is provided in a protruding manner on a substantially rectangular clip base 13 , which together form a groove shaped glass holding section 16 . this glass holding section 16 sandwiches the edge 2 a of the rear quarter glass 2 such that the glass can slide in a direction along the glass surface . furthermore , on the clip base 13 , a flat biasing projection 17 ( clip elasticizing device ) which extends obliquely towards the open side of the glass holding section 16 , is provided so as to contact the edge face of the rear quarter glass 2 engaged within the glass holding section 16 . accordingly , the elasticity of the biasing projection 17 forces the molding clip 11 towards the peripheral wall 7 a of the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 . furthermore , as shown in fig5 , on the one sandwiching piece 14 , a pair of locking projections 18 is provided whose ends extend away from the sandwiching piece 14 and engage with the inner peripheral wall sa of the glass molding 5 . in addition , on the back of the clip base 13 ( the surface opposite to that where the glass holding section 16 is formed ), a stepped locking section 20 is formed as shown in fig4 , which locks the edge of the outer peripheral wall 5 b of the glass molding 5 . the glass molding 5 is attached to the molding clip 11 so as to cover part of the clip base 13 and the one sandwiching piece 14 , and is held in place by the locking projections 18 and the locking section 20 . in this embodiment , the locking projections 18 and the locking section 20 constitute the molding attachment section . furthermore , as shown in fig5 , ribs 21 are formed on the surface of the one sandwiching piece 14 which contacts the side face of the rear quarter glass 2 . these ribs 21 are formed along the direction of the opening of the glass holding section 16 . fig6 is a perspective view showing the molding clip 12 attached to the other straight region a 2 . as shown in this figure and in fig4 , the molding clip 12 has substantially the same construction as the molding clip 11 described above , with the exception that ribs 22 are provided instead of the biasing projection 17 on the clip base 13 at positions facing the edge face of the rear quarter glass 2 . other parts of the molding clip 12 that serve the same function as those in the molding clip 11 are denoted by the same reference numerals , and overlapping description is omitted . when attaching the rear quarter glass 2 and the molding clip 12 to the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 , first the glass molding 5 is assembled , and then the anchoring molding clips 10 and the molding clips 11 and 12 are attached at predetermined locations of the glass molding 5 ( see fig2 ). on the other hand , the hollow sealing lip 3 and the glass clips 8 are attached to the rear quarter glass 2 in advance . next , the groove shaped glass holding section 16 of each molding clip 11 and 12 attached as described above to the glass molding 5 , engages with the edge 2 a of the rear quarter glass 2 on the base and rear oblique side , in a freely sliding manner ( see fig2 and fig3 ). the glass assembly including the glass molding 5 having undergone preliminary assembly is inserted into the depression in the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 , where the glass clips 8 at the front end of the rear quarter glass 2 and the anchoring molding clips 10 at three locations on the glass molding 5 engage with the each corresponding positioning hole in the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 respectively . when the glass assembly is inserted into the depression in the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 as described above , the elastic lip 30 on the outer periphery of the glass molding 5 makes pressure contact with the peripheral wall 7 a . as a result , the pair of substantially straight regions a 1 and a 2 of the glass molding 5 are pushed towards the rear quarter glass 2 by the elasticity of the elastic lip 30 . on the other hand , the molding clips 11 and 12 attached to the substantially straight regions a 1 and a 2 of the glass molding 5 are pushed towards the peripheral wall 7 a of the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 by the edge face of the rear quarter glass 2 , via the glass holding section 16 . accordingly , the glass molding 5 is maintained at the proper position between the rear quarter glass 2 and the peripheral wall 7 a of the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 . in particular , the molding clip 11 attached to the upper substantially straight region a 1 is pushed towards the peripheral wall 7 a of the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 by the elasticity of the biasing projection 17 which contacts the edge face of the rear quarter glass 2 . as a result , the substantially straight region a 1 of the glass molding 5 is automatically positioned where the elastic forces of the elastic lip 30 and the biasing projection 17 balance each other . moreover , because an adhesive 32 is applied in advance between the rear quarter glass 2 and the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 as shown in fig4 , the rear quarter glass 2 and the glass molding 5 , once properly positioned , are secured to the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 by the adhesive 32 which is spread around . as described above , with the attachment structure and method of the present invention , because the molding clips 11 and 12 are attached to the glass molding 5 so as to sandwich the edges of the rear quarter glass 2 in the glass holding section 16 , displacement between the glass molding 5 and the rear quarter glass 2 in the inside - outside direction of the vehicle body can be reliably prevented . furthermore , the glass molding 5 is attached to the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 not separately , but in the form of a glass assembly incorporating the rear quarter glass 2 . consequently , despite the glass molding 5 having a thin - walled substantially u - shaped construction whose overall shape is prone to deformation , the glass molding 5 can be easily attached to the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 together with the rear quarter glass 2 . furthermore , the attachment structure and method of the present invention provides an advantage in that the glass and the glass molding can be fitted to the vehicle body with great efficiency because the position of the glass molding 5 is automatically adjusted to an appropriate position where the elastic forces of the biasing projection 17 of the molding clip 11 and the elastic lip 30 of the glass molding 5 balance each other . in addition , in this embodiment , because the molding clips 11 and 12 are provided at a plurality of locations along the longitudinal direction of the glass molding 5 , the glass molding 5 is supported in a stable and highly rigid manner by the rear quarter glass 2 . accordingly , the glass molding 5 can be easily assembled into the vehicle side glass fitting section 7 together with the rear quarter glass 2 . in particular , in this embodiment , because a plurality of molding clips 11 and 12 are provided along the extending direction of the substantially straight regions a 1 and a 2 of the easily deformable substantially u - shaped glass molding 5 , the easiness of assembling can be further improved . while a preferred embodiment of the invention has been described and illustrated above , it should be understood that this is exemplary of the invention and is not to be considered as limiting . additions , omissions , substitutions , and other modifications can be made without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention . accordingly , the invention is not to be considered as being limited by the foregoing description , and is only limited by the scope of the appended claims .
