Pivoting cursor for frameless glass in a vehicle
A pivoting cursor for a frameless window. 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 clamping plate; a seal; and a threaded adjuster for pivoting the pivoting plate with respect to the main body portion.
WINDOW REGULATOR
In a window regulator which moves a slider base, slidable along a guide rail, via a pair of wires, the slider base includes: a guide portion which is fitted to the guide rail to be movable in the longitudinal direction thereof; first and second wire engaging portions with which ends of the wires are engaged, respectively; and first and second force application portions which receive a force in a moving direction of the slider base from the wires, and the guide portion is positioned in at least one of the areas between the first force application portion and the first wire engaging portion and between the second force application portion and the second wire engaging portion in the widthwise direction of the guide rail. This makes it possible to obtain a window regulator which is superior in smoothness of operation and operating efficiency of the slider base.
GLASS LIFT PLATE ASSEMBLY FOR WINDOW REGULATOR
A window regulator assembly in a vehicle includes a glass lift plate assembly for moving a window glass up and down along the guide rail. The glass lift plate assembly includes a slider base, a glass holder configured to receive and hold the window glass, and an attachment bracket placed on the glass holder to securely hold the window glass. The glass holder includes an inboard part and an outboard part, and is connected to the slider base by an adjustment member, which is configured to adjust a top edge of the window glass. Further, the window glass is placed between the inboard part and the outboard part of the glass holder and also fixedly held by an attachment fastener. The inboard part of the glass holder slidably moves relative to the outboard part of the glass holder by the rotational movement of the adjustment member.
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; a first adjusting screw for pivoting the pivoting plate with respect to the main body portion; and a second adjusting screw adjusting a location of the main body portion with respect to the pivoting plate.
WINDOW REGULATOR ASSEMBLY, AND DRIVER FOR A WINDOWPANE
A window regulator assembly for an adjustable windowpane of a motor vehicle has a driver with two driver limbs which are connected via a connecting limb and between which a receiving gap for the windowpane is formed. A first driver limb is being configured for guiding the driver along an adjusting path. It being possible for the second driver limb to be moved elastically with respect to the first driver limb, and the second driver limb has a latching element which protrudes into the receiving gap, engages into a pane-side latching opening during insertion of the windowpane into the receiving gap of the driver, and can be moved out of the pane-side latching opening for dismantling of the windowpane. The driver has a locking element for limiting a pivoting path of the second driver limb during its movement with respect to the first driver limb.
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.
SLIDER FOR WINDOW REGULATOR WITH ADJUSTMENT MECHANISM
An adjustable slider of a window regulator includes a base body configured to connect with a cable of the window regulator and a clamp-plate assembly having first and second jaws configured to clamp a windowpane therebetween. A hinge plate supports the clamp-plate assembly. A first adjustment mechanism pivotally connects the hinge plate to the base body such that the clamp-plate assembly and the hinge plate are pivotal relative to the base body allowing a vertical angle of the clamp-plate assembly to be changed. The first adjustment mechanism is actuatable to move the hinge plate relative to the base body in a fore-and-aft direction allowing a fore-and-aft position of the clamp-plate assembly to be adjusted.
WINDOW REGULATOR
A window regulator includes a carrier plate holding a windowpane, a drum rotated by driving a motor that generates a driving force, a wire whose one end is connected to the carrier plate and whose other end is connected to the drum, a wire end fixed to an end on a side of the one end of the wire, and a housing member that is formed of a synthetic resin and houses the wire end. The housing member is configured to define a housing hole that is surrounded by a base in which an inserting hole to insert the wire is formed, and a sidewall that is formed extending from an outer edge of the base. The wire end is housed in the housing hole while being pressed against a protrusion that protrudes from the sidewall.
Glass lift plate assembly for window regulator
A window regulator assembly in a vehicle includes a glass lift plate assembly for moving a window glass up and down along the guide rail. The glass lift plate assembly includes a slider base, a glass holder configured to receive and hold the window glass, and an attachment bracket placed on the glass holder to securely hold the window glass. The glass holder includes an inboard part and an outboard part, and is connected to the slider base by an adjustment member, which is configured to adjust a top edge of the window glass. Further, the window glass is placed between the inboard part and the outboard part of the glass holder and also fixedly held by an attachment fastener. The inboard part of the glass holder slidably moves relative to the outboard part of the glass holder by the rotational movement of the adjustment member.
Vehicle window regulator with window protection system
A window regulator comprises: a carrier plate having a front surface and a rear surface, the carrier plate configured to be attached to a guide rail with the rear surface facing the guide rail; a first lifter attachment portion spaced from a second lifter attachment portion, the first lifter attachment portion and the second lifter attachment portion integral with the carrier plate and each having a lifter aperture configured to receive a window lifter; a flange extending at an angle along a length of an edge of the front surface of the carrier plate; and a window protection system proximate to the first lifter attachment portion and the second lifter attachment portion. At least a part of the window protection system is configured to extend beyond a distal edge of the flange in a front-facing direction.
