Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention relates to an improvement in a lifting device for automobile window glass.

(Prior Art) As a lifting device for automobile window glass, especially ticket glass, as shown in FIG.
It has been proposed that the door is opened and closed by a ticket glass 5 that is guided up and down by a pair of side rails 4, 4 inside the door 1 (see Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 58-62275).

By the way, in this type of conventional lifting device, the rattling when the window glass (ticket glass) is raised and lowered is
This is prevented by guiding both ends of the window glass with a sash (window frame) etc. installed outside the door, so matching between the side rail of the lifting device inside the door and the sash etc. outside the door is prevented. It was difficult to assemble and adjust.

In particular, when the lower end of the window glass is raised, the lower end of the window protrudes outward so that the window glass follows the outer panel of the door, which is a so-called flat surface. Since a gap is required for the overhang to swing, there is a problem in that it is not possible to sufficiently prevent rattling when the window glass is raised and lowered using a sash or the like.

(Purpose of the invention) The present invention is a device for lifting and lowering window glass for automobiles as described above, which is basically designed to raise and lower the window glass smoothly without rattling, using only the lifting device inside the door. be.

(Structure of the invention) For this reason, in the present invention, the window glass that is raised and lowered by the regulator mechanism swings around its upper end at the end of its rise, and the lower end extends outward, causing the window glass to touch the outer panel of the door. In an automobile window glass lifting device, the window glass holding member holds the window glass at its lower end portion, and the window glass holding member is arranged vertically in the door at predetermined intervals in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body, and is arranged inside the door. a first guide rail having a guide hole defining a movement locus of the lower end portion when the window glass is raised and lowered; A second guide rail is arranged on the outer panel side of the window glass holding member, and a second guide rail whose upper end is one step lower than the upper end of the guide hole, and a second guide rail that guides each of the first guide rails at each end of the window glass holding member. A first fitting member and a second fitting member that are fitted and guided in the hole and the guide recess of each of the second guide rails, respectively, and arranged in the vertical direction between the second guide rail. a center rail; a lifting bracket that is vertically guided by the center rail and is raised and lowered by the regulator mechanism; fixed to the lifting bracket;
A guide bracket having an overhanging guide hole extending obliquely toward the outer panel side is fixed to the window glass holding member, and is fitted into the overhang guide hole of the guide bracket, so that the window glass reaches the first position at the end of the rise position. When the second fitting member in the recess of the two guide rails comes out of the second guide rail, the guide bar has a fitting portion that is guided to the overhanging guide hole and moves toward the outer panel side.

(Effects of the invention) According to the invention, since the first fitting member and the second fitting member guided by the first guide rail and the second guide rail are provided three-dimensionally in the left, right, top and bottom, The tilt of the window glass is offset, eliminating rattling and allowing the window glass to be raised and lowered smoothly using only the lifting device inside the door.

In addition, since the window glass can be lifted and lowered using only the first and second guide rails placed inside the door, the window glass lifting mechanism can be attached to the center rail, making it easy to assemble and adjust. Furthermore, since there is no need for a guide sash on the outside of the door, it can be assembled at any position in the front and back directions of the door, making it ideal for use as a ticket glass lifting device aimed at creating a flat surface. be able to.
