Trim and seal member

A trim comprising:

• a trim body formed of a polymeric material, wherein the trim body extends in a longitudinal direction, and the trim body has a substantially U-shaped cross section;
• an insert member embedded in said trim body and reinforcing said trim body;
• a lip provided to project from an inner surface of said trim body, wherein a projecting length, which is the distance by which said lip projects from said inner surfaces varies in the longitudinal direction of said trim body;
• a head portion bulging toward a bottom wall portion of said trim body formed at a tip end of said lip, wherein the sectional area of said head portion varies according to the projecting length, and there is an inverse relationship between the sectional area and the projecting length, such that a larger sectional area of the head portion corresponds to a smaller projecting distance, and a smaller sectional area of the head portion corresponds to a larger projecting length.

A seal member comprising:

• a trim body formed of a polymeric material, wherein the trim body extends in a longitudinal direction, and the trim body has a substantially U-shaped cross section;
• an insert member embedded in said trim body and reinforcing said trim body;
• a lip provided to project from an inner surface of said trim body, wherein a projecting length, which is the distance by which said lip projects from said inner surface, varies in the longitudinal direction of said trim body;
• and
• a head portion being provided at a tip end of said lip, wherein the head portion bulges towards a bottom wall portion of said trim body,
• wherein a slope is provided at a tip end of said lip so as to be inclined with respect to an extension plane of an opening-portion-side surface in a base end portion of said lip, and said slope is formed so that an inclination angle of said slope with respect to said extension plane of said opening-portion-side surface varies in accordance with said projecting length of said lip.

A seal member comprising:

• (A) a trim portion attachable on an edge of an opening portion of a body of a vehicle corresponding to an opening and closing body of said vehicle, said trim portion comprising:
• a trim body formed of a polymeric material, wherein the trim body extends in a longitudinal direction, and the trim body has a substantially U-shaped cross section;
• an insert member embedded in said trim body and reinforcing said trim body;
• a lip provided to project from an inner surface of said trim body, wherein a projecting length, which is the distance by which said lip projects from said inner surface, varies in the longitudinal direction of said trim body;
• and
• a head portion being provided at a tip end of said lip, wherein the head portion bulges towards a bottom wall portion side of said trim body,
• wherein said lip is formed so that the following relationship is satisfied between a length Li of said lip on a bottom wall portion side of said trim body and a length Lo of said lip on an opening portion side of said trim body in a section of said lip in which said projecting length of said lip is the shortest:
• 0≦Lo≦Li/2;
• and
• (B) a seal portion which is attached to said trim portion and can be elastically deformed by pressure contact against said opening and closing body.

A seal member comprising:

• (A) a trim portion attachable to a flange portion of an opening of a body of a vehicle corresponding to an opening and closing door of said vehicle, said trim portion comprising:
• a trim body formed of a polymeric material, wherein the trim body extends in a longitudinal direction, and the trim body has a substantially section;
• an insert member embedded in said trim body and reinforcing said trim body;
• a lip provided to project from an inner surface of said trim body, wherein a projecting length, which is the distance by which said lip projects from said inner surface, varies in the longitudinal direction of said trim body;
• and
• a head portion bulging toward a bottom wall portion of said trim body formed at a tip end of said lip, wherein the sectional area of said head portion varies, according to the projecting length:
• and
• (B) a seal portion, which is attached to said trim portion and can be elastically deformed by pressure contact against said opening and closing door.
