DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which the same reference numerals are given to the same parts as those of the above-mentioned conventional structure.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, a weather strip 4 is attached to the periphery of the door partition window panel 3.
A holder 5 having a U-shaped cross section is attached to the lower part of
And the upper edge of the door outer panel 6 and the door inner panel 7
A bracket 8 having a U-shaped cross section is attached to the upper edge of the bracket, and the basic configuration such as that the door partition window panel 3 is attached to the bracket 8 via the holder 5 is the same as that of the conventional art.

Here, a projection 16 is provided on the lower surface of the holder 5.
Are formed at two places with a space between the front and rear.
A hole 17a opening in the bottom surface of the holder 5
Is formed downward. The bottom surface of the weather strip 4 has a hole 4a communicating with the upper surface of the weather strip 4, and a cylindrical portion 4b that fits into the hole 17a protrudes.

On the other hand, on the bottom surface of the bracket 8, a long hole 18 for restricting the movement of the projection 17 of the holder 5 in the vehicle width direction and restricting the rearward movement of the projection 17 at the rear end is formed. It is formed at a position corresponding to 17.

Here, the tangent at the upper end on the front side of the door partition window panel 3 has a slope of an angle α downward with respect to the horizontal line as shown in FIG. 3, while the holder attached to the lower part of the door partition window panel 3. the lower surface 16a of the fifth projection 16 on the bottom surface of the bracket 8
Due to sliding, the inclination angle with respect to the horizontal line is zero .

The first half of the elongated hole 18 is a guide G,
The latter half is configured as an insertion portion S.

According to the support structure of the above embodiment, first, the projection 17 below the projection 16 provided on the holder 5 of the door partition window panel 3 is inserted into the front half of the long hole 18 of the bracket 8. When the door partition window panel 3 is pressed rearward in this state, the tangent at the upper end on the front side of the door partition window panel 3 is inclined downward by an angle α with respect to the horizontal line, and the bottom surface of the bracket 8 is horizontal. The door partition window panel 3 receives a downward force when moving backward during assembly.

Therefore, the lower surface 1 of the projection 16 of the holder 5
6a is in contact with the bottom surface of the bracket 8, and is accurately positioned in the up-down direction.

Since the projection 17 is restricted from moving in the vehicle width direction by the long hole 18, the door partition window panel 3 is positioned in the vehicle width direction.

When the projection 17 reaches the end of the slot 18, the door partition window panel 3 is positioned in the front-rear direction.

Therefore, since the door partition window panel 3 is accurately positioned in the up-down direction, the vehicle width direction, and the front-back direction, the sealing property of the weather strip 4 is enhanced, and the appearance is improved.

Further, since the positioning is performed with reference to the bottom surface of the bracket 8, the holding flange 10 is engaged with the connecting flange 11 between the bracket 8 and the door inner panel 7 as in the prior art. There is no need to provide the notch portions 12 and 13a in the joining flange portion 11 and the door trim 13 because the assembly accuracy is affected by the degree of inclination of the 11, and the cost can be reduced and the assembling workability can be improved.

The elongated hole 1 formed in the bracket 8
8 is advantageous in that it can be used as a locate hole when the door inner panel 7 and the door outer panel 6 are attached to the bracket 8.
As shown in FIG. 2, rainwater and the like flowing down the hole 4 a along the weather strip 4 can be smoothly discharged from the long hole 18, so that the rust on the bottom surface of the bracket 8 can be prevented. Are better.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG.
This will be described with reference to FIGS.

In this embodiment, a guide portion 19 inclined downward by an angle β (β <α) with respect to a horizontal line on the bottom surface of the bracket 8 in the above-described embodiment, and a projection 16 of the holder 5 connected to the guide portion 19 are provided. An insertion hole 20 as an insertion portion into which the projection 17 is inserted is embossed downward. Therefore, in the assembled state, as shown in FIG. 5, the lower surface 16a of the projection 16 contacts the bottom surface 21a of the embossed portion 21, and the lower surface 5a of the holder 5 contacts the bottom surface 8a of the bracket 8.

Also in this embodiment, since the inclination angle β of the guide portion 19 is smaller than the inclination angle α of the tangent at the upper end on the front side of the door partition window panel 3, the door partition window panel 3 faces downward when moving backward during assembly. , The lower surface 16a of the projection 16 comes into contact with the bottom surface 21a of the embossed portion 21, and the lower surface 5a of the holder 5 comes into contact with the bottom surface 8a of the bracket 8, thereby ensuring vertical positioning. .

Further, since the projections 17 are engaged with the insertion holes 20, the door partition window panel 3 in the vehicle width direction,
Both positioning in the front-rear direction is also performed, so that the sealing property of the weather strip 4 is improved, and the appearance is improved.

Then, as in the prior art, the joining flange 11
The assembling accuracy is not affected by the degree of tilting, the notch portions 12 and 13a need not be provided in the joint flange portion 11, and the cost can be reduced and the assembling workability can be improved. The same points as those in the previous embodiment are effective in locating holes when the door inner panel 7 and the door outer panel 6 are mounted, and that rainwater and the like can be smoothly discharged from the holes 17a of the projections 17. In addition, about the other structure and effect | action, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to the same part as 1st Example, and description is abbreviate | omitted.

[0030]

According to the present invention, as described above, by engaging the projection of the holder with the insertion portion of the bracket, the door partition window panel can be positioned in the vehicle width direction and in the front-rear direction. And, on the bottom surface of the bracket, a guide portion for guiding the lower portion of the door partition window panel at an angle smaller than the inclination of the tangent at the upper end of the door partition window panel, and an insertion portion where the projection is engaged with the terminal of the guide portion. By providing,
The door partition window panel on which the protrusion of the holder is guided along the guide portion is pressed downward, and the lower surface of the holder is pressed against the bottom surface of the bracket, so that the positioning in the vertical direction can be performed. In addition, by engaging the projection of the holder with the insertion portion on the bottom surface of the bracket, positioning in the vehicle width direction and the front-back direction can be performed.

Therefore, assembling accuracy can be improved as compared with the conventional method in which positioning is performed based on the joining flange portion, and there is no need to provide a notch in the joining flange portion, which hinders spot welding. Therefore, cost reduction can be achieved.
