Definitions
- This invention relates to a cable type vehicle window winder with kinematic chain and electrical or manual drive.
- a window winding device is known, through reference DE-A-3740579, which has a rail and a cable that makes a drive slide move, which in turn moves the window pane in the vehicle door, with end parts on which the cable is guided to the drive unit for the said cable, and with these end parts having some particular characteristics.
- the guide, drive and tensioning items of the cable follow the traditional method of operation.
- the basic aim of the invention is to simplify the techniques used up to now in mechanisms used for moving the glass pane, in opening and closing operations, in automobile vehicle doors, using a new functional concept.
- FIG. 1 we can observe how the window winder device is essentially provided with a guide-rail (1), on which a drive element (2) moves, with this drive element being connected to two ends of the cable (6).
- the ends of the said cable (6) that leave the drive element (2) are inserted into a drum (5) trough a set of end supports (3,4), with the cable winding and tensing operations being carried out on this drum.
- the drum (5) is supported by a motorized speed reducer or reducer (9), Fig. 1, in the case of the electrical drive, with the assembly being secured to the vehicle door by three points (7,8,10).
- the drive (11) is distant from the rail (1) and is connected to the drum (5) by means of a transmission line (14).
- the drive is secured to the door and the rail is secured by means of the fixing points (7, 8).
- FIGs. 3 and 4 Other types of drive systems, for example manual ones, are shown in Figs. 3 and 4, with the drive elements themselves (12, 13) and their transmission lines (15, 16) to the drum (5).
- the coil spring (43) is used to compensate for the weight of the glass pane in the door, and at the same time to reduce the drive torque if the drive is manual, or, if the drive is electrical, to reduce the motor power.
- the drive element (2) is a support part made of thermoplastic or metalloplastic material which includes a system for fixing the glass (21).
- This system can be by clip-fitting directly into a drill hole in the glass itself, as illustrated in Fig. 9, by inserting a lug into the drill hole in the glass pane and fixing with a butterfly (wing) nut, Fig. 10, by nipping or gripping by means of bolts and flexible lips, Fig. 11, or by direct fastening onto the bottom edge of the glass pane by means of two bolts, Fig. 12.
- the guide-rail (1) it will be made up of a profile with a cross section and a moment of inertia suitable for its use, as illustrated by the rails (1, 1', 1'', 1''') shown in Figs. 13 to 16.
- the dimension figure (22) for each one of them, which is the internal width, will be sufficiently wide to allow the drive element (2) to pass without being hampered in any way by the fixing for the motorized speed reducer or by the drum support.
- this element acts as a support for the constituent parts mentioned above and, therefore, must be appropriately resistant to be able to stand up to the corresponding stresses in the slam tests, without becoming deformed.
- the end guide-supports (3, 4), arranged also at the ends of the rail (1), are injection-moulded parts made of thermoplastic material, which on being inserted, fulfil the function of supporting the rail (1) on the door structure, while at the same time guiding the cable (6) and allowing it to slide, so as to direct it from the sliding direction of the drive element (2) to that of winding onto the drum (5).
- Fig. 18, represents in all its view a support (3) which brings together the characteristics described.
- This support (3') is inserted into the end of the rail (1) (Fig. 17) and is fastened to it by means of the bolt (7) with the square head and neck (24), from where it follows that assembly is easy, consisting of inserting the bolt (7) into the square hole (P), Fig. 17, at the end of the rail (1) and then sliding the support (3), in an axial direction on the rail, onto the window or cut-out (G), Fig. 17, until the tongue (L) of the support (3) becomes mounted on and fixed over the square head of the bolt (7), and being thus ready for assembly in the door.
- the support (3) also has a guide (23) for the cable (6) so that the cable can slide in the guide when moving from the drum (5) to the support (2) or viceversa.
- the supports in question can be channel wheels or pulley-wheels, as long as they perform the same operational function.
- the self-tensioning drum (5) of the invention is the most important part of the unit and is described in the Fig.s 19.
- the drum (20) is of very simple construction and is advisable whenever cables with a small amount of stretching are used.
- the drum (20) is made up of two parts (25,26) which are coaxial with each other and duly fitted one over the other by means of the tongues (27) of the casing (25) and the edge (28) of the casing (26), so that both parts (25,26) can turn, one over the other, but in one single direction, due to the fact that the casing (26) has a circular toothed rack and the casing (25) has its tongues (30). These tongues (30) engage in the toothed rack and immobilize one casing in relation to the other in one direction and release it in the opposite direction.
- the casing (25) is the initially driving part to which turning is provided by means of the motorized speed reducer fitted at its outlet on the corresponding hub of the square, toothed or other cross section, or else by means of the toothed ring gear (35) at the outer edge of the reducer, when the drive is manual, as illustrated.
- Tensing of the cable takes place by inserting the lug on the upper branch of the said cable into the gap (31) in the casing (26), once that it has been housed in the upper support and making the system turn in an anticlockwise direction until all the cable has been gathered in and it takes the drive element (2) to the upper stop of its travel path.
- the stop (32) from the assembly unit is moved over the outer circular toothed rack (29) of the casing (26), with which it becomes fixed to the casing (26) in its clockwise rotation.
- the lug on the lower branch of the said cable is inserted into gap (33), after passing it through the lower support, and the system is made to turn in a clockwise direction, with which the casing (25) will rotate over the casing (26) until the cable becomes tensed, by applying the turning torque which is considered suitable.
- All the component parts of the two units (20) and (20') corresponding to the tensing drum are manufactured in thermoplastic material with a vitreous load and obtained by injection moulding, with the exception of the shafts (41) of the unit (20'), which are made of steel and are inserted into the corresponding positions in the part (36).
