    Description

    BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

    (1) With the above and other related objects in view, the invention consists in the details of construction and combination of parts as will be more fully understood from the following description, when read in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which:

    (2) FIG. 1 represents a top view of a vehicle window control system 10 wherein a vehicle assembly 20 may be viewed in accordance to an embodiment of the present invention;

    (3) FIG. 2 shows an enlarged view of driver door 24 having control area 29 in accordance to an embodiment of the present invention; and

    (4) FIG. 3 illustrates an enlarged view of control assembly 40 mounted thereon vehicle assembly 20 in accordance to an embodiment of the present invention.

    DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

    (5) Referring now to the drawings, where the present invention is generally referred to with numeral 10, it can be observed a vehicle window control system 10 that basically includes a vehicle assembly 20 and a control assembly 40.

    (6) Vehicle assembly 20 includes a vehicle 22 having a driver door 24 and passenger doors 26. In the present embodiment, vehicle 22 is depicted as being a convention motor vehicle having four doors. However, it should be under stood that any suitable motor vehicle of any doors may be used for vehicle 22. Additionally, driver door 24 corresponds to the door on a driver's side of the vehicle. Furthermore, passenger doors 26 corresponds to the all of the other doors excluding driver door 24 of vehicle 22. Driver door 24 includes a driver window 24A. Driver window 24A is a vertically adjustable window that is disposed on driver door 24. Passenger doors 26 includes passenger windows 26A. Passenger windows 26A are also vertically adjustable windows disposed on passenger doors 26. Driver door 24 and passenger doors 26 further include electric motors 28 disposed therein. Electric motors 28 are communicably mounted to driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A.

    (7) Furthermore, electric motors 28 may be previously existing electric motors mounted within vehicle 22. Driver door 24 further includes a control area 29 wherein control assembly 40 is mounted thereon. Additionally, control assembly 40 is communicably mounted to electric motors 28 using known means in the art such as wires.

    (8) Control assembly 40 includes a switch panel 42 having a first switch 44 and a second switch 46. In the present embodiment, switch panel 42 may be circular in shape having a circumference and mounted thereon driver door 24. First switch 44 is mounted thereon switch panel 42 and has a shape that cooperates with half of the circumference of switch panel 42. Additionally, second switch 46 is also mounted thereon switch panel 42 and comprises a shape that cooperates with half of the circumference of switch panel 42. First switch 44 and second switch 46 may be single rocker type switches. In the present embodiment, once first switch 44 is actuated it then enables switch panel 42 to automatically sync driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A to switch panel 42. As a result, a user may utilize switch panel 42 to simultaneously control driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A. Additionally, once second switch 46 is actuated it then enables driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A to all be lowered a predetermined amount. Driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A will be lowered the predetermined amount once vehicle 22 is engaged. Switch panel 42 further includes a center switch 48 mounted in the center of switch panel 42 between first switch 44 and second switch 46. Switch panel 42 further includes a top button 48A, a right button 48B, a bottom button 48C, and a left button 48D communicably mounted to electric motors 28. Once engaged, the buttons may be configured to lower driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A a predetermined amount. The buttons may also include indicia thereon to indicate to a user the amount to be lowered. In the present embodiment, top button 48A may be configured to lower driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A twenty-five percent of the total height. Right button 48B may be configured to lower driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A fifty percent of the total height. Bottom button 48C may be configured to lower driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A seventy-five percent of the total height. Left button 48D may be configured to lower driver window 24A and passenger windows 26A one hundred percent of the total height. Vehicle window control system 10 allows a user to easily lower all the windows of a vehicle simultaneously.

    (9) The foregoing description conveys the best understanding of the objectives and advantages of the present invention. Different embodiments may be made of the inventive concept of this invention. It is to be understood that all matter disclosed herein is to be interpreted merely as illustrative, and not in a limiting sense.
