Resilient seal and retainer assemblies for the side edges of a swing door panel of a cargo container. Each assembly includes, in one embodiment, a resilient seal member and a relatively rigid retainer member, coextruded of polyvinyl chloride. The retainer member includes a channel part with a web and opposed flanges for receiving one of the side edges of the door panel and the retainer member also includes a base part extending from the web for supporting the resilient seal member which includes a convex, thinned-walled rim part and internal webs extending radially inwardly from the rim part to reinforce the rim part and to restore the rim part to a convex, undeflected condition when the rim part is disengaged from a sealing surface on a frame of the door panel. In an alternate embodiment, the seal member of each of the assemblies is provided with its own integral coextruded base part which may be slidably or snap-fitted into engagement with a separately formed retainer member.

[ What is claimed is:] [16.] A seal and retainer assembly for sealing a panel edge of a swing door panel for a cargo container, said seal and retainer assembly comprising:an elongated retainer member including a channel part for receiving said panel edge and for supporting said seal and retainer assembly on said panel and a retainer base part, said channel part including a web and opposed flanges forming a channel for receiving said panel edge and said retainer base part extending generally normal to said web and opposite said flanges; andan elongated seal member supported by said retainer base part, said seal member including a convex rim part operable to engage a frame of said cargo container to form a seal between said panel edge and said frame and at least one interior web having opposite ends, one of said ends being monolithically formed with said rim part and another of said ends being monolithically formed with said retainer base part to allow resilient deflection of said seal member upon engagement with said frame and to restore said seal member to an undeflected position upon disengagement from said frame, said seal member and said retainer member being coextruded from a polymer material and said seal member and said retainer member having different hardnesses, wherein said retainer member is a substantially rigid member for supporting said seal member, and further wherein said seal member is substantially resilient.
