Window regulator
11719031 · 2023-08-08 · ·

A window regulator includes a guide rail, a carrier plate, and a raising/lowering means to raise/lower the carrier plate along the guide rail. The carrier plate includes a front surface sliding member configured to slide on a front surface of a flange portion of the guide rail and a back surface sliding member configured to slide on a back surface of the flange portion. The back surface sliding member includes a contact portion coming into contact with the back surface and a base portion that presses the contact portion against the back surface by a restoring force of elastic deformation. The contact portion extends toward the back surface and is elastically deformed and bent on the end side to allow the flange portion to enter from a lateral side in an extending direction thereof when assembling the carrier plate to the guide rail.

Pinch detection during motor restart
