A weather stripping for sealing a vehicle body flange. The weather strip includes a sealing member integrally formed with a channel or strip body having an opening for receiving a body flange therein. The weather strip includes at least one sealing lip formed on an inner surface of the strip body that extends in the longitudinal direction and a connecting portion in which the interior sealing lip is cut away to define an interior passageway that will communicate with the outside of the channel. This assures draining of water and the like which may have entered inside the strip body.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention concerns a weather strip for a vehicle having a body flange, such as around a door of a vehicle to be sealed.
The strip is shaped in the form of a channel having an opening extending in the longitudinal direction thereof, the opening receiving the body flange therein.
The strip also includes at least one sealing lip formed on an inner surface of the channel, the sealing lip extending in the longitudinal direction and projecting inwardly.
The improvement comprises the inclusion of at least one opening in the channel defined by a cutaway portion of the sealing lip and an absence of internal sealing lips at the channel opening with the opening communicating with the exterior of the vehicle.
DETAILED EXPLANATION OF DEVICE It is accordingly an object of the invention to provide in a weather strip for a vehicle having a body flange to be sealed, which is adapted to fit for the sealing on the body flange, an improvement which permits a favorable draining of water and the like as having entered inside of a strip body of the weather strip.
