WINDOW REGULATOR
A window regulator (1) provided in a vehicle door (9) to raise and lower a windowpane (90) in the door (9) includes a guide rail (20) arranged along the travel direction of the windowpane (90), a wire (3) tensely fitted along the longitudinal direction of the guide rail (20), and a traveling body (4) that is guided by the guide rail (20) and travels together with the windowpane (90). The traveling body (4) includes a drum (40) with a part of the wire (3) wound thereon, a motor (5) generating a drive force that rotates and drives the drum (40), and a housing (6) that holds the drum (40) and the motor (5). Both end portions of the wire (3) are held by first and second wire support members (21) and (22) that are provided at an upper end portion and a lower end portion of the guide rail (20).
Run channel
An interior side wall part of a rear die-molded corner part of a run channel is provided with a plate-shaped protrusion abutting on an interior seal lip at the time of upward and downward movement of a window pane, the protrusion extending in a direction from a base end side toward a distal end side of the interior side wall part along a wall surface of the interior side wall part. Accordingly, a force by which the interior seal lip presses the window pane to a vehicle exterior can be increased to increase a seal pressure. Also, the protrusion is formed so as to protrude obliquely from the wall surface of the interior side wall part.
Vehicle door
A vehicle door is provided with: a main sash that is disposed above a door main body and that encircles a window opening; and an auxiliary sash of which the upper end abuts the main sash. The auxiliary sash is provided with: a second vehicle interior wall abutting a first vehicle interior wall of the main sash; a second vehicle exterior wall abutting a first vehicle exterior wall; and a second bottom wall coupling the second vehicle interior wall and the second vehicle exterior wall. A notch that is notched alongside the first vehicle exterior wall is formed solely at the second vehicle exterior wall. The bottom end of the notch is disposed below the tip side of the second bottom wall and the top side of the second vehicle interior wall formed contiguously.
Pivoting cursor for frameless glass in a vehicle
A pivoting cursor for a frameless window of a vehicle door, including: a main body portion; a pivoting plate pivotally secured to the main body portion for pivotal movement about an axis; a glass clamping plate; a seal; an adjusting screw for pivoting the pivoting plate with respect to the main body portion, the adjusting screw having a first threaded portion for threadingly engaging an opening in the main body portion; and a locking nut for threadingly engaging a second threaded portion of the adjusting screw, wherein the locking nut is located on an inboard side of the pivoting cursor.
SINGLE-RAIL WINDOW REGULATOR ASSEMBLY
A single-rail window regulator for moving a side window of a vehicle in an upward direction and in a downward direction includes a guide rail defining and a carrier plate having a central guide structure for movably engaging the guide rail, a first lateral extension extending to a first lateral side of the guide rail, and a second lateral extension extending to a second lateral side of the guide rail body opposite the first lateral side. The carrier plate has a first cable attachment pocket on the first lateral extension and a second cable attachment pocket on the second lateral extension. Accordingly, the two attachment pockets are arranged on opposite lateral sides. As one cable end pulls the carrier plate upward and the other cable end pulls the carrier plate downward, the arrangement causes torques in the same rotational direction, even when reversing the direction of movement.
WINDOW PANE ACTUATION MECHANISM AND VEHICLE HAVING SUCH A MECHANISM
A motorized window pane actuation mechanism for displacing a mobile window pane, comprising a static tubular pillar extending along a main axis on a side of a first pane zone; a rotating output tube mounted coaxially around the static tubular pillar; a rotating central shaft mounted coaxially inside the static tubular pillar; a rotary motor mounted coaxially inside the static tubular pillar and around the rotating central shaft to cause the rotation of the rotating central shaft with respect to the static tubular pillar; a connector for transmitting a rotary motion of the rotating central shaft to the rotating output tube; and a rotary-to-linear motion converter which is driven by the rotating output tube and drives the displacement of the mobile window pane.
Vehicle with improved cab visibility
A cab for a refuse vehicle includes a cab body defining a first door opening and a second door opening, a first door positioned over the first door opening, and a second door positioned over the second door opening. Each of the first door and the second door includes a door panel and a peep window positioned proximate a lower end of the door panel. The peep window includes an interior windowpane and exterior windowpane. Portions of the interior windowpane and the exterior windowpane are vertically offset and horizontally offset.
VEHICLE WITH IMPROVED CAB VISIBILITY
A cab for a refuse vehicle includes a cab body defining a first door opening and a second door opening, a first door positioned over the first door opening, and a second door positioned over the second door opening. Each of the first door and the second door includes a door panel and a peep window positioned proximate a lower end of the door panel. The peep window includes an interior windowpane and exterior windowpane. Portions of the interior windowpane and the exterior windowpane are vertically offset and horizontally offset.
