Abstract:
A window lift system, especially for the side window of a motor vehicle, includes (i) a pulling device and (ii) a catch for a window pane, which can be moved up and down using the pulling device. The catch has a first fastening point for an upward pulling end of the pulling device and a second fastening point for a downward pulling end of the pulling device, which point is horizontally off-set from the first fastening point in the window pane plane when the window pane is fitted. The window lift system also includes (iii) an arrangement positioning and fixating the catch in terms of at least three degrees of freedom so that the catch can be maintained in a position that is defined in terms of the degrees of freedom even when the window pane is not yet fitted.
Abstract:
A window regulator includes a carrier member to which a window panel is attached, a pair of sliding elements provided on the carrier member, and a positioning unit which relatively positions the pair of sliding elements in a state where the pair of sliding elements press the guide rail and the pair of sliding elements sandwich the guide rail.
Abstract:
A carriage for fitting a suspendable door on a rail is described. The carriage includes a housing and at least one running roller disposed on the housing. The running roller is positioned to engage the rail. An installation plate is included that is adapted to be connected to the suspendable door. A suspension bolt is connected between the housing and the installation plate. A portion of the suspension bolt engages a bearing disposed at one end of either the housing or the installation plate. The bearing permits at least angular displacement if the suspension bolt with respect to either the housing or the installation plate.
Abstract:
A door suspension system comprises a horizontally suspended ferromagnetic shaft; a nonmagnetic bracket comprising a bracket cylinder for enclosing a linear bearing and an attached bracket hanger plate for securing a door panel; a nonmagnetic cylindrical linear bearing sized to slide into the bracket cylinder and over the shaft; at least two spaced bores in the upper surface of the bracket cylinder; at least two spaced bores in the upper surface of the cylindrical linear bearing arranged so as to align with the spaced bores in the bracket cylinder; a cylindrical permanent magnet positioned in at least one of the spaced bores of the bracket cylinder; and a ferromagnetic armature to complete the magnetic circuit through the shaft and the magnet or magnets.
Abstract:
A window lifter assembly for a motor vehicle is provided. The window lifter assembly comprising a flexible pulling means for transmitting a driving force produced by a window lifter drive to a window pane to be adjusted, comprising a carrier, which is to be tied on one hand to flexible pulling means and to which the window pane is to be fixed on the other hand so that the window pane is connected to the flexible pulling means via the carrier, and comprising guiding means being spaced apart contact free from the carrier for guiding the window pane along an adjustment path defined by the guiding means. The window pane is moved together with the carrier in said adjustment path if a drive force is applied to the window pane directly by the window pane which is guided on the guiding means, without the carrier engaging in a guiding device that extends along the adjustment path enforces a movement along the adjustment path on the carrier in addition to the connection of the carrier to the flexible pulling means.
Abstract:
Described is a carriage (7) for sliding doors and windows (2) comprising a fixed frame (3), at least one sash (4) that is slidable horizontally relative to the fixed frame (3) by means of a carriage unit (1), and a handle (9) mounted on the sash (4) for controlling the carriage (7); the latter is provided with a supporting frame (11), mobile on wheels, and with a connecting member (13) interposed between the supporting frame (11) and a bottom sash (4) rail (8); the connecting member (13) is movably constrained to the supporting frame (11) to enable the sash (4) to be lifted and lowered relative to the supporting frame (11) under the action of the handle (9); a helical spring (44) is interposed between the supporting frame (11) and the connecting member (13) to lessen the effort required of the user to lift the sash (4).
Abstract:
A guiding system for a sliding door, especially a motor vehicle, comprising a sliding rail (5) with an upper cover (6) and a lower edge (7) arranged opposite the upper cover (6), and a roller element (101) which is guided in the sliding rail (5) and comprises a roller element housing (102) is presented. Three rollers (103, 104) are rotatably fixed to the roller element housing (102), two rollers (103) extending along the upper cover (6) of the sliding rail (5) and the third roller (104) extending along the lower edge (7). The invention creates one such guiding system in such a way that there is no play, it operates quietly, and has a taut system characteristic. To this end, a spring element (109) is fixed to the roller element housing (102), said spring element pressing on of the first two roller (103) and the third roller (104) against the sliding rail (5).
Abstract:
A cushioning device for opening and closing of sliding shutters, particularly of sliding shutters for furniture, to be applied as a single item to each shutter or sliding partition, in order to be able to cushion an end part of their opening and closing movement. The cushioning device includes a cushioning box applied with brackets for support and sliding of the individual shutter; this box being equipped with two opposing braking devices of a rotary type, whose toothed hub directly meshes with a rack fixed to the box, each braking device being joined to its own slider guided by the box and being joined at one end by an elastic device with its opposite end joined to the other slider, both sliders being equipped with a hook for activating and deactivating the corresponding action of the final section of travel to be cushioned.
Abstract:
A guide block for a window in a frameless vehicle door, the guide block, comprising: a main body portion having a collet received within a cavity of the main body portion; a spring disposed between the collet and an inner surface of the cavity; and a threaded screw received within the collet and the spring wherein the spring acts against the collet to allow the screw to threadingly engage the collet and the opens and allows the threaded screw to slide within the collet.
Abstract:
The lifting window (15) has a windowpane (17) which can be raised and lowered by means of a lifting device and which is guided here by two guide rails (24; 25). In the region of at least one side edge (19), the windowpane (17) is guided, at a point remote from the lifting device, only indirectly by the associated guide rail (24) by means of an adjusting device (38). The adjusting device (38) has a guide strip (39) which interacts with the associated guide rail (24). The guide strip (39) is guided by means of a guide device (41) so as to be moveable at least approximately perpendicularly to the windowpane (17). Said guide strip (39) can be adjusted relative to the windowpane (17) by means of an adjustment device (42) and can be fixed in the desired relative position by means of a fixing device.
