#CMT# #/CMT# The door has a door panel provided with a lower edge (18), and a bottom step joint (20) supported against a step bearing in a closed position of the door. The joint is fixed on the lower edge and maintained against the lower edge in fixation points (26-1-26-N) along the joint. The joint is tightly raised between the fixation points and relaxed between a pair of fixation points among the fixation points to provide a water evacuation space (30) between the joint and the lower edge, between the fixation point pair. #CMT#USE : #/CMT# Door i.e. rear door, for being received in an embrasure of a motor vehicle (all claimed) e.g. C4 Picasso(RTM: stylish and sophisticated multi-purpose vehicle). Can also be used for a front door or a vehicle having a single side door. #CMT#ADVANTAGE : #/CMT# The joint is relaxed between the pair of fixation points among the fixation points to provide the water evacuation space between the joint and the lower edge, between the fixation point pair, thus preventing water accumulated over the bottom step joint, and hence preventing entry of water in an inner door shell and in a passenger compartment, and preventing creation of closing hardness of the door. #CMT#DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS : #/CMT# The drawing shows a front perspective view of a bottom step joint of a door. 18 : Lower edge 20 : Bottom step joint 26-1-26-N : Fixation points 28-1-28-N : Clips 30 : Water evacuation space. |
