A door module of a vehicle door includes a carrier plate having a cable window regulator with at least one guide rail, and a door structure which is or can be joined to the carrier plate. A cable deflection region of the guide rail extends beyond an outer edge of the carrier plate. The cable deflection region is provided with a joining contour which, when joined, is form-lockingly inserted in a receiving contour of the door structure. The joining contour engages behind the receiving contour in such a way that the cable deflection region is stabilizingly held in a direction perpendicular to the cable deflection region. A vehicle door having the door module is also provided.

A window regulator includes a guide rail provided along an ascending/descending direction of a window glass of a vehicle, a carrier plate that slides on the guide rail and travels together with the window glass, cables that pull the carrier plate, a drum on which the cables are partially wound, a motor rotationally driving the drum, and a drum housing provided at a lower end of the guide rail and having a housing space for housing the drum, wherein the drum housing has a wall section provided on an outer side of the drum that is housed in the housing space, and a contact surface of the drum housing coming into contact with the carrier plate is provided at a lower position than an upper end of the wall section in a vertical direction that the window glass travels when the window glass is fully opened.

A window regulator for raising and lowering a window of a vehicle, including: a guide rail; a cursor slidably mounted to the guide rail; a flange portion mounted to a bottom end of the guide rail, wherein the flange portion has a rail mounting portion and an arm portion extending from the rail mounting portion and a mounting portion extending from the arm portion; and a motor operably coupled to the cursor such that operation of the motor will cause the cursor to slide along the guide rail, the motor being mounted to the mounting portion, wherein the motor when mounted to the mounting portion is located adjacent to a side of the guide rail located between the bottom end of the guide rail and a top end of the guide rail.

A carrier module including a pair of carrier members operably coupled to one another via at least one cable is provided. The carrier members are configured for substantially free movement relative to one another to facilitate installation of the carrier members into an internal door cavity through an opening formed in the inner panel, wherein at least one of the carrier members is adjustable along at least one of cross-vehicle, aft/forward, and up/down directions.

A window regulator for a motor vehicle door assembly including features for providing defrosting capabilities for movable glass of the door. A door wire harness is routed inside a door inner cavity. A defroster wire harness is provided having a first end connected to the door wire harness at a bracket on a window regulator guide rail. The opposite end of the defroster wire harness is affixed to a second bracket at a window regulator window carrier. Electrical defroster element wires are connected to the defroster wire harness at the second connector. The defroster wire harness is configured to undergo a bending motion in a manner to reduce fatigue and interference with internal components of the vehicle door. Other applications include providing electrical power to electronic or electrical elements carried by a vehicle movable window panel in addition to defroster functions.

It is provided a drive device for an adjustment installation for adjusting a vehicle part, in particular a power window actuator, comprising a carrier element, a cable drum, a cable exit housing which is disposed on a first side of the carrier element and which has a first bearing element for mounting the cable drum so as to be rotatable about a first rotation axis, a drive wheel that is drivable by a motor unit, and a drive housing which is disposed on a second side, facing away from the first side, of the carrier element and which has a second bearing element for mounting the drive wheel so as to be rotatable about a second rotation axis. The cable exit housing and the drive housing are fastened to one another by way of a fastening element which acts between the first bearing element and the second bearing element.

A window regulator includes a guide rail and a drum housing at an end of the guide rail. The guide rail includes a flat plate portion extending in the ascending/descending direction, and a side plate portion rising from the flat plate portion. The drum housing includes a fitting hole into which the end of the guide rail is inserted and fitted, a first fitting guide wall extending from a first inner surface of the fitting hole toward the near side in an insertion direction so as to protrude from an edge of the fitting hole and guiding the flat plate portion to the fitting hole, and a second fitting guide wall extending from a second inner surface of fitting hole toward the near side in the insertion direction so as to protrude from the edge of the fitting hole and guiding the side plate portion to the fitting hole.

It is provided a drive device for an adjustment installation for adjusting a vehicle part, in particular a power window actuator, comprising a carrier element; a cable drum; and a cable exit housing which is disposable on the carrier element and which mounts the cable drum so as to be rotatable about a rotation axis and which by way of at least one housing portion is attachable to the carrier element; and a motor unit for electromotively driving the cable drum. The carrier element has a contact structure having a plurality of elevations and depressions that are successively lined up and are mutually disposed in an alternating manner, the at least one housing portion of the cable exit housing by way of a base portion being attachable to the contact structure.

A window regulator includes a carrier plate, a wire to pull the carrier plate, a slide member including a main body attached to an end of the wire and a flange at a base end of the main body, and a spring to apply a tensile force to the wire. The carrier plate includes a housing portion including a bottom surface, the housing portion accommodating the spring. A grease storage portion for storing grease is formed between the flange and the bottom surface. A protruding portion is formed on one surface out of the bottom surface and the end face so as to protrude from the one surface and comes into contact with the other surface out of the bottom surface and the end face to restrict an advancing position of the slide member. The protruding portion is deformed by the contact such that a protruding length thereof is reduced.

An adjustable window regulator lift plate assembly for a vehicle window includes a base and a window holder. The window holder is secured to the base via a part-in-assembly fastener that extends through an aperture in the base and into an aperture formed in an inner leg of the window holder. The window holder may receive and secure a window, and the fastener may be inserted through the window holder and into a fastener plate disposed on an outer leg of the window holder. The window holder includes a curved inner surface on the inner leg, and the base includes a curved outer surface that contacts the inner leg. The window holder may be shifted and pivoted relative to the base. The fastener may be tightened to secure the window holder relative to the base in a desired pivoted position.
