First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A glass plate module to be attached at a position adjacent to a door of a vehicle that can be opened and closed, the glass plate module comprising: a glass plate; a window assembly that is fixed to a peripheral edge of the glass plate; and a molding portion that includes a tubular molding portion main body provided with a through hole extending along the window assembly and that is fixed to the window assembly, wherein the molding portion main body is configured to come into contact with a door arrangement portion where at least a part of the door which is closed is configured to be disposed, the molding portion further includes a coupling portion for connecting the molding portion main body with the window assembly, and when the molding portion main body contacts a part of the door which is closed, the molding portion main body is configured to be flattened while the molding portion main body pivots about a contact point, at which the molding portion main body is in contact with the door arrangement portion no matter when the door is open or closed, in a direction in which the molding portion main body moves away from the window assembly such that an angle formed between the molding portion main body and the coupling portion increases. 2. The glass plate module according to claim 1 , wherein the coupling portion includes a fixing portion attached to the window assembly, and the fixing portion includes a rib which is configured to contact the vehicle body. 3. The glass plate module according to claim 1 , wherein the coupling portion includes a fixing portion attached to the window assembly, the fixing portion includes a flat surface that extends along the window assembly, and the window assembly includes a flat surface to which the flat surface of the fixing portion is bonded. 4. The glass plate module according to claim 1 , wherein the molding portion is made of a foamable material. 5. The glass plate module according to claim 1 , wherein an abrasion-resistant coating is applied to the molding portion. 6. The glass plate module according to claim 1 , wherein an outline of the cross-sectional shape of the molding portion main body has a triangular shape. 7. The glass plate module according to claim 1 , wherein an outline of the cross-sectional shape of the molding portion main body has an elliptical shape.
