Weatherstrip with retaining features to locate it in a mould

摘要

The hollow sealing portion 17 of an automotive weatherstrip is removed in a corner region, and a corner piece 18 is die-formed with the remaining part, including a lip 12 protruding on the edge of the door, to provide an integrally moulded corner. The weatherstrip is provided with convex and/or concave portions 13, 14 which co-operate with the mould to restrict movement during the moulding operation, improving the accuracy of the moulded part 18.
