A weather strip includes a body side weather strip and an inner seal attached to opposite ends of a die formed part for use at a door opening edge of a car body. The inner seal has a grip with an embedded metal core for insertion into a body flange. The upper end of the inner seal is formed as a cut end face that connects to die formed part and a gap exists between a roughly triangular base part of the die formed part and at a lip a side surface of the upper end part of the inner seal. When the inner seal attaches to the flange it is curved along the flange and the side end of the base part contacts the inner seal upper end part to close the gap.
1. A weather strip which is formed by integrating a body side weather strip and an inner seal of a lower side, and is configured to be attached to a door opening edge of a body of an automobile, by a die formed part, the inner seal having a grip part with an embedded metal core adapted for insertion and attachment to a body flange of a body of an automobile, wherein the die formed part is formed to receive an inner seal upper end part of said inner seal, the die formed part being connected to only a cut end face at an upper end of the inner seal upper end part, and the die formed part having a wedge shaped gap from a side surface of the inner seal upper end part, wherein the width of said wedge shaped gap narrows toward the upper end of the inner seal upper end part, the die formed part together with the inner seal being adapted so that insertion into a body flange is capable of closing the gap between the die formed part and the side surface of the inner seal upper end part.
2. The weather strip according to claim 1 , wherein the inner seal connected to the die formed part is shaped straight.
3. A weather strip comprising:
a body side weather strip including a hollow seal part and a lip piece;
an elongate inner seal comprising a hollow seal part extending the length thereof and a grip with a metal core embedded therein capable of attachment to a body flange, and the inner seal having an upper end part with an upper end cut end face at an upper end thereof; and
an elongate die formed part having a first end joined to the body side weather strip and a second end joined to the upper end cut end face at an upper end of the inner seal to integrally join the body side weather strip and the inner seal, the die formed part having a base part projecting from the second end to form a gap between the inner seal and the base part,
whereby the gap is capable of being closed by mounting of the weather strip to a vehicle body.
4. The weather strip according to claim 3 , wherein the gap comprises a wedged gap.
5. The weather strip according to claim 3 , wherein the base part comprises a triangular shaped base part.
6. The weather strip according to claim 3 , wherein the upper end cut end face comprises a flat upper end cut end face.
7. The weather strip according to claim 3 , wherein the base part facing the gap is curved.
8. The weather strip according to claim 3 , wherein the inner seal and the body side weather strip are extruded.
9. The weather strip according to claim 3 , wherein the inner seal is shaped straight.
10. The weather strip according to claim 9 , wherein the gap comprises a wedged gap.
11. The weather strip according to claim 10 , wherein the base part comprises a triangular shaped base part.
12. The weather strip according to claim 11 , wherein the upper end cut end face comprises a flat upper end cut end face.
13. The weather strip according to claim 12 , wherein the base part facing the gap is curved.
