Roof assembling method for motor vehicle, involves placing roof and L-shaped section assembly between steel dome arches of side panel after assembling panel, and fixing branch of section on inner grooves of crosspieces of arches by screwing

摘要

The method involves forming flanges (11) on longitudinal edges of a roof (10), and assembling L-shaped aluminum sections (12) on the flanges. The roof and the section assembly are placed between steel dome arches (2) of a side panel by interposing a glue seal between a branch (14) of each section and an inner groove of upper crosspieces of the arches, after assembling the panel. The branch is then fixed on the inner grooves by screwing. An independent claim is also included for a body shell of a motor vehicle having a roof between two dome arches.
