    [0001] 1. Field of the Invention [0001]
    [0002] The present invention relates to a center channel fixation and more particularly to a center channel structure fixed to the door in a vehicle, for guiding the window glass of the rear door. [0002]
    [0003] 2. Description of the Related Art [0003]
    [0004] Generally, the doors of vehicles have window glass [0004] 2 at the upper side, for allowing the passengers to watch outside. The passengers may ascend or descend the window glass 2 with use of a window regulator (not shown) installed within the door 1. The ascending/descending operation is achieved by guiding a glass run channel installed along a door chassis 1 a, as shown in FIG. 1.
    [0005] While the front doors in the vehicle have one window each, the rear doors are divided into two sections of window glasses [0005] 2 a and 2 b with respect to the center channel 3 extending to the door panel 1 b from the intermediate side of the door chassis 1 a. The window glass 2 a in the forward direction with respect to the center channel 3 is controlled up and down, while the window glass 2 b in the rearward direction with respect to the center channel 3 is fixed to the door.
    [0006] FIG. 2 shows a perspective view of the center channel [0006] 3 of rear door 1. The center channel 3 of a H-shape is fixed to the rear door 1 by engagement of the door chassis 1 a and the inner panel 1 b with the upper and lower brackets 4 and 5.
    [0007] The upper bracket [0007] 4 has a braced end with the other end open, i.e. ┌, for fixing the upper end to the door chassis 1 a. A transverse portion 4 a of the bracket 4 is disposed to oppose the upper end of the center channel 3 with a predetermined interval. A vertical portion 4 b is fixed to the upper end of the center channel 3. An engagement hole 4′ is formed at the transverse portion 4 a of the bracket 4.
    [0008] The bracket [0008] 4 is disposed through the glass run channel 6 at the lower side of the door chassis 1 a and engaged by a screw 7 with the door chassis 1 a. The corresponding portion of the glass run channel 6 is formed open cut through the bracket 4.
    [0009] This type center channel structure as conventionally used has disadvantages that the glass run channel [0009] 6 should be cut through so as to engage the bracket to the door chassis. As the glass run channel 6 should be cut, there is a possibility of intrusion of other substances such as rainwater into the cut portion of the glass run channel 6. Moreover, the draught noise due to air intrusion into the cut portion may occur. These problems also cause the passengers to feel discomfortable. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
    [0010] The present invention is derived to solve the above disadvantages of the conventional center channel structure and has an object to provide a center channel fixation structure in engagement with the door chassis having the center channel without cutting through the glass run channel. [0010]
    [0011] It is the other object of the present invention to provide a center channel fixation structure to prevent rainwater and draught noise, thereby improving passenger's comfort and product reliability. [0011]
    [0012] In order to achieve the objects of the present invention, there is provided a center channel having a H-shaped section installed in perpendicular on a chassis of the door to the panel and serving to divide the door glass into two portions. The center channel is fixed to the door chassis and panel by upper and lower brackets fixed thereto. Upper bracket extends in lateral from the upper end of the center channel wherein an engagement is in parallel to a wall of a glass run channel of the inner door chassis. The upper bracket is fixed to the door chassis by a screw through the walls of the glass run channel and the door chassis. [0012] BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
    [0013] The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given hereinbelow and the accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only, and thus, are not limitative of the present invention, and wherein: [0013]
    [0014] FIG. 1 is a side view showing the conventional center channel installed at the rear door of the vehicle; [0014]
    [0015] FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the upper portion of the conventional center channel of FIG. 1; [0015]
    [0016] FIG. 3 is a sectional view of the upper portion of the conventional center channel of FIG. 1; [0016]
    [0017] FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the upper portion of the center channel structure of the present invention; [0017]
    [0018] FIG. 5 is a lateral sectional view of the center channel of FIG. 4; and [0018]
    [0019] FIG. 6 is a longitudinal sectional view of the center channel of FIG. 4. [0019] DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
    [0020] FIGS. [0020] 4 to 6 show the center channel structure of the present invention.
    [0021] As shown in FIG. 4, the center channel [0021] 11 is formed in H-shape having two wings 13 in opposite with respect to a shaft 12. An end of one wing 13 is cut to form a cut portion 13 a.
    [0022] The bracket [0022] 14 in L-shape includes a wing fixation 15 and an engagement 16. The wing fixation 15 is fixed to the shaft 12. The engagement 16 is fixed to extend along the wing 13 in place of the cut portion 13 a at the wing 13.
    [0023] At the engagement [0023] 16, a thread hole 16′ is formed for engagement with the screw 24.
    [0024] The engagement [0024] 16 of the bracket 14 is adhered to one side of the glass run channel 22 inserted to the door chassis 23 and fixed to the door chassis 23 by the screw 24 which protrudes the side walls of the glass run channel 22 and the door chassis 23. The engagement 16 fills the cut portion 13 a of the center channel 11, to be fixed to the glass run channel 22 without a predetermined interval or overlapping with the wing 13.
    [0025] The fixing structure of the center channel [0025] 11 to the door panel by the lower bracket is omitted.
    [0026] As described above, the engagement of the upper bracket extends in parallel with the side wall of the glass run channel and is engaged to the door chassis by the screw through the side wall of the glass run channel and the door chassis. [0026]
    [0027] While the conventional structure requires the glass run channel cut through the bracket so as to engage the bracket to the door chassis, the present invention has advantages to prevent intrusion of other substances such as rainwater into the cut portion between the glass run channel and draught noise due to air intrusion into the cut portion, thereby improving passenger's comfort and assembling workability. [0027]
