Abstract: A fastening system particularly adapted for joining automotive hardware components to body components, such as a window regulator module plate to the door inner panel. The system employs a joint element featuring twist in attachment and retention. The joint element includes features which enable it to be assembled to the module plate and a partially assembled shipping condition and a final assembled position in which the components are fastened together. The system provides rapid assembly with reliable mounting security and validation.

Abstract: A window regulator assembly for a motor vehicle includes a pulley assembly with integrated module plate for redirecting a cable. The pulley assembly includes a base element and a cable pulley rotatably coupled with the base element. The base element has a pair of fingers and a stepped area for engaging with an integrated module plate. The integrated module plate has a pulley assembly receiving site for placing the pulley assembly. The pulley assembly receiving site of the integrated module plate has at least one aperture, a slot and a mating portion for easily engaging with the pulley assembly. The mating portion includes a third support surface for supporting the edge of the stepped area of the base element.

Abstract: A window clamp and assembly for an automotive window regulator assembly. The window clamp provided features a body foundation and a U-shaped bridge extending from the foundation configured to deflect away from the foundation to allow a window panel to be inserted into a slot of the window clamp. Claws formed on the bridge pass through and interlock with holes in the window panel to secure and support the panel. Shoulders formed on and protruding from the bridge guide the window panel into position and aid in supporting the panel. The window clamp design facilitates rapid and accurate assembly of the window clamp assembly while providing increased stability of the window panel and reduced size of the window clamp.

Abstract: A cable guide assembly adapted for use with a guide rail for a motor vehicle, for redirecting a cable of a window regulator, includes a cable guide formed with an arc-shaped body having a cable guide groove on an outer perimeter of the arc-shaped body and a cable guide receiving site formed in the guide rail adapted to receive and mount the cable guide. The cable guide includes a cable holding tab extending outward from the arc-shaped body along a longitudinal axis and a pair of side hooks extending from an end portion of the arc-shaped body along a transverse axis. In an intermediate-installed state of the cable, the cable is set under the cable holding tab, and in a fully-installed state of the cable, the side hooks are configured to prevent the cable from coming off from the cable guide.

Abstract: A cable guide for use with a window regulator assembly includes a body, an attachment configured to be inserted through an aperture in a guide rail and retain a portion of the guide rail in a rail gap, a spring tab configured to press against an edge of the guide rail, and a cable retention arm configured to receive a tensioned drive cable of the window regulator. The cable guide may be steadily assembled to the guide rail by utilizing the pushing force from the tensioned drive cable. The aperture is located along the guide rail such that the aperture is out of the slide path of the window carrier of the window regulator assembly.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: A cable guide assembly adapted for use with a guide rail for a motor vehicle, for redirecting a cable of a window regulator, includes a cable guide formed with an outer perimeter and a cable guide receiving site formed in the guide rail adapted to receive and mount the cable guide. The cable guide includes a cable guide groove to guide the cable wrapping around the cable guide and a generally circular interior cavity to mount to the guide rail. In the cable guide assembly, the cable guide is securely engaged with a center support in the cable guide receiving site and rotatable between two rotatable positions, a temporary holding position and a final position. In the temporary holding position, the cable is at a first tension and the cable is at a second tension higher than the first tension in the final position.
