Claims (30)

1. A structure of attaching a weather strip for a door to a door frame of an automobile,

the weather strip

being provided on a peripheral edge portion of the door of the automobile, and

made of an elastic material and sealing a gap between the peripheral edge portion of the door and a peripheral edge portion of an opening portion of a vehicle body,

wherein

the weather strip is formed by integrating a hollow seal portion and an attachment base portion together,

the hollow seal portion

being elastically deformed by coming into contact with the peripheral edge portion of the opening portion of the vehicle body, and

the attachment base portion

including a seal lip portion disposed on an outer side of a passenger compartment of the hollow seal portion and elastically deformed by coming into contact with the peripheral edge portion of the opening portion of the vehicle body on an outer side of the passenger compartment than the hollow seal portion, and

being disposed on an outer side of the passenger compartment than the hollow seal portion,

a sticking material is provided on a surface of the hollow seal portion closer to the door frame,

the door frame includes a sticking surface on which the sticking material is stuck, and a protruding portion protruding and provided on an outer side of the passenger compartment than the sticking surface,

the attachment base portion includes a portion composed of a solider material than the seal lip portion,

the solider portion includes a fitting portion fitted to the protruding portion, and

a deformation origin portion serving as an origin of deformation is provided between the hollow seal portion and the attachment base portion of the weather strip.

2. The structure of attaching the weather strip of claim 1 , wherein

the door frame includes a door frame body and a trim strip member fixed to the door frame body and extending along the door frame body, and

the protruding portion is provided on the trim strip member.

3. The structure of attaching the weather strip of claim 2 , wherein

the fitting portion of the attachment base portion is a groove into which the protruding portion is inserted, and

the protruding portion protrudes from an inner side of the passenger compartment of the trim strip member toward an outside of the door frame.

4. The structure of attaching the weather strip of claim 1 , wherein

the deformation origin portion is thinner than the attachment base portion.

5. The structure of attaching the weather strip of claim 1 , wherein

the seal lip portion is composed of a foamed material, and

the fitting portion is composed of a non-foamed material.

6. The structure of attaching the weather strip of claim 1 , wherein

the attachment base portion is provided with an engaging portion engaging with the door frame on an outer side of the passenger compartment than the fitting portion, and
