ENCAPSULATED FIXED WINDOW MODULE

摘要

A fixed window assembly (10) is adapted to be fixedly secured to a door of a motor vehicle having a retractable window pane (24). The fixed window assembly includes a fixed window pane (16) having an outer periphery (17). A division post (18) extends along a portion of the outer periphery of the fixed window pane. A glass run (42) is fixedly secured to the division post (18) opposite of the fixed window pane for receiving the retractable window pane. The glass run is formed from a first moldable material. An encapsulation (44) is molded to the fixed window pane (16) to secure the division post (18) thereto. The encapsulation is formed from a second moldable material that is different from the first moldable material. Two corresponding method claims for manufacturing the fixed window assembly are also included.
