WINDOW DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
A window device for a vehicle, the window device including: a light-transmitting plate having light-transmitting property and fixed to a vehicle body to physically partition an exterior and an interior of the vehicle; a light-shielding body having light-shielding property and provided along the light-transmitting plate within a view of a vehicle occupant; and a moving mechanism configured to move the light-shielding body up and down so as to widen or narrow a view obtained through the light-transmitting plate above the light-shielding body.
WINDOW LIFT MECHANISM
A window positioning apparatus for a vehicle comprising a window panel, a frame in which the window panel is guided between a closed position closing a window opening in the frame and an open position opening the window opening, and a multi-stage telescoping screw actuator mechanism connected between the window panel and the frame, the actuator mechanism being extendible to move the window panel from its open position to its closed position and collapsible to move the window panel from its closed position to its open position. The multi-stage telescoping screw actuator mechanism includes a plurality of screw members of progressively decreasing diameter respectively telescopically disposed within a next adjacent screw member of larger diameter. The plurality of screw members includes a first stage screw member that is rotatably supported and axially constrained in a housing fixed with respect to the frame, a last stage screw member attached to the window panel, and at least one intermediate stage screw member, and each intermediate stage screw member has internal and external threads respectively for engaging external and internal threads on next adjacent screw members, such that rotation of the first stage screw member in a first direction relative to the last stage screw member will cause the intermediate and last stage screw members to extend telescopically along an extension axis from the first stage screw member and rotation in a second direction opposite the first direction will cause the intermediate and last stage screw members to telescopically retract.
ADJUSTABLE CURSOR FOR GLASS IN A VEHICLE
A cursor assembly for a window regulator of a vehicle door, including: a main body portion; a clamping member secured to the main body portion; a cable securement feature that is moveably secured to the main body portion by an adjustment screw, wherein rotation of the adjustment screw about an axis will cause the cable securement feature to move along the axis with respect to the main body portion; and a gear train operably coupled to the adjustment screw.
