A device for securing an automotive glass pane in an automotive body makes use a molded frame secured to the periphery of the glass pane and provided with a rearwardly projecting U-shaped recess internally formed with saw-teeth which can engage saw-teeth on a ledge or projection of a strip for a U-shaped receptacle body flange of the vehicle extending parallel to the pane. The sealing strip is affixed at least to a web of the frame and bears upon the body.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION We claim: 1.
A device securing an automotive glass pane in an automobile body having a sash flange lying behind and generally parallel to said pane, said device comprising: a frame secured to the perimeter of said glass pane and comprising: a portion receiving the perimeter of said pane, an inwardly extending web affixed to said portion and lying along a face of said pane generally parallel to said flange, and a first detent formation molded on said web turned toward said flange; an angle strip fixed to said flange and including: a U-shaped receptacle receiving an edge of said flange, a lateral projection from said receptacle, and a second detent formation molded on said lateral projection complementary to and engaged with said first detent formation in a tolerance-eliminating interfit to lock said pane to said body; and a soft elastic sealing member extending around said frame and secured on said web while being deflectible by and engageable with said body and said flange upon interfitting of said formations.
2.
The device defined in claim 1 wherein said sealing member is nondetachably joined to said frame.
3.
The device defined in claim 1 wherein said sealing member is formed with an outwardly extending lip engageable with a surface of said body and bridging a gap between said seal and said body.
4.
The device defined in claim 1 wherein before said pane is affixed to said body, said strip is movable on said flange, but is fixed thereon by a pressing force generated by compression of said member upon interfitting of said formations.
5.
The device defined in claim 1 wherein said frame and said strip are molded from hard but elastic synthetic resin and said member is molded from a soft elastic synthetic resin.
6.
The device defined in claim 5 wherein said frame and said strip contain reinforcing inserts.
7.
The device defined in claim 1 wherein said frame has a generally Z-shaped cross section having a first arm forming said portion, a second arm extending away from said first arm and formed with said first detent formation, and said web bridging said arms
