DEVICE FOR CONNECTING V/INDO'W REGULATORS TO \VINDOWS.
Application filed August 18, 1926. Serial No. 130,047.
The invention relates to window regulators and refers more particularly to devices for connecting window regulators to windows. Some of the objects of theinvention are to provide an improved device for connecting a window regulator to a window to prevent rattling; to provide an improved deing a window, a window regulator, and a connecting device embodying my invention;
Figure 2 is a cross section on the line 2 2 of Figure 1; i I
' Figure 3, 4, and are views similar to Figure 2 showing modified constructions;
Figures 6 and 7 are side elevations of the channels shown in Figures 4 and 5, respectively.
In illustrating my invention I have shown the Vehicle door 1 having an opening in its upperportion and a chamber in its lower portion, and a window 2 in the nature of a glass, which is slidable from a position closing the opening into the chamber. 3 is the window regulator having the pivotal lifter arm 4 carried upon the mounting plate 5 which in turn is secured to the lock board 6 of the door. I
For the purpose of connecting the window to the lifter arm to permit freely operating the window regulator in raising or lowering the window, I have provided the sheet metal channel 7 which embraces the lower edge portion of the glass 2 and has the lateral flanges 8 and 9, respectivel ,at the inner and outer sides of the glass. Tie lateral flange 8 is trans versely curved to form the groove 10 extending longitudinally thereof in its upper face. The base of the channel is also transversely curved by being made concave to form the longitudinally extending groove 11. 12 is a sheet metal slide of channel shape and having the upper and lower flanges 13 and 14, respectively. These flanges are both transversely curved to form the longitudinally exi tending beads 15 neartheir free edges for engaging in the'grooves 10 and 11. To de, crease the'friction between the slide and channel I form the spaced projections 16 in the; beads 15 to slidably engage the faces of the grooves. The channel 7 and slide 12 being resilient, the projections 16 are yieldably held against the faces of the grooves and consequently play between the channel and slide is prevented and wear between the-channel and slide is automatically taken up The slide 12 is pivotally connected to the lifter arm 4 by means .of the pin 17 having the head 18 engaging the outer side of the base of the slide, there being the washer 19' at the inner side of the lifter arm-and the key 20 for preventing disengagement of the pin. The point of connection of the lifter'arm to the slide is laterally inwardly offset a distance from the glass suchthatthe lifter arm may lie substantially in a single'plane and as a consequence the lifter arm connected to the glass by my device need not be as heavy or strong as other lifter arms connected in 3? the usual manner heretofore. v
21 is a Weatherstrip formed of suitable material located upon the lateral flange '9 and held against the outer side oft-he glass to be engageable with a cooperating Weatherstrip. upon the frame within'which the glass-slides. In the modification shown in Figure 3, the device is in general the same as that shown in Figures 1 and 2 with the exception that the pivot for the slide 22 is formed integral therewith. ,This pivot is in the nature of a cylindrical flange 23 and extends through the lifter arm 24; and is held from disengagement by the key 25, there being preferably: a washer 26 between the key and lifter arm,
In the modifications shown in Figures 4,
.5, 6 and 7, the sheet metal channels for embracing the lower edges of the glass'are constructed so that while they function as efficiently, they may be manufactured more economically than the sheet metal channels shown in Figures 1, 2 and 3. Specifically, and as shown in Figures 4 and 6, the sheet metal channel 27 for embracing the lower edge of the glass has the lateral flange 28 in the nature of a tongue struck out from a side flange of the channel with its ends sheared from this side flange. This lateral flange is transversely curved to form the longitudinallyextending groove 29 in its upper face corresponding to the longitudinally extending groove 10 in the lateral flange 8 shown in Figure 2. The remainder of the construction may be the same as that shown in either Figure 2 or 3 particularly. The lateral flange 30 upon aside flange of the sheet metal channel 31 shown in Figures 5 and 7 has the same cross sectional contour as the lateral flanges previously described, but this lateral flange is formed out of the side flange of the channel instead of being struck out therefrom. WVith either of these constructions the width or height of the side flange of the channel may be decreased and furthermore require a less width or height of slide for cooperating with the channel so that quite a saving in stock may be effected.
What I claim as my invention is:
1. The combination with a window and a re ulator therefor, of a channel embracing said window and having a lateral flange, and a. channel-shaped slide connected to said regulator and having flanges slidably engaging said lateral flange and the base of said channel.
2. The combination with a window and a regulator therefor having a pivotal arm, of a channel embracing said window and having a lateral flange, and a channel-shaped slide pivoted to said arm and having flanges engaging said lateral flange and the base of said channel, one of said. flanges being resilient.
3. The combination with a. glass and a regulator therefor, of a channel embracing said glass and having lateral flanges at opposite sides of said glass, one of said lateral flanges being adapted to receive a Weatherstrip, and a slide connected to said regulator and embracing said channel, said slide having a flange slidably engaging the other of said lateral flanges.
4. The combination with a glass and a regulator therefor, of a channel embracing said glass and having a lateral flange formed with a longitudinally extending groove. the base of said channel also being formed with a longitudinally extending groove, and a. channe1- shaped slide connected to said regulator and having flanges with portions engaging in the grooves in said lateralflange and the base of said channel.
5. The combination W1th a glass and a regulator therefor having a pivotal arm, of a channel embracing said glass and having lateral flanges at opposite sides thereof and a concave base forming a longitudinally extending groove, one of said lateral flanges being shaped to form a longitudinally extending groove in its upper face, the other of said lateral flanges being adapted to receive a Weatherstrip, and a. resilient channel-shaped slide pivoted to said arm and having beaded flanges engaging in the grooves of the firstmentioned lateral flange and the base of said channel.
6. The combination with a window and a regulator therefor, of a channel embracing said window and provided with a lateral flange extending from a side flange of said channel intermediate its upper and lower edges, and a channel shaped slide connected to said regulator and having portions slidably engaging said lateral flange and the base of said channel.
7. The combination with a window and a regulator therefor having a pivotal arm, of a channel embracing said window and having a lateral flange, and a channel-shaped slide having its base portion pivoted to said arm and having its side walls slidably engaging said lateral flange and the base of said channel.
8. The combination with a window and a regulator therefor, of a member secured to said window and having bearing portions facing in opposite directions, and a channelshaped slide member connected to said regulator and embracing said first mentioned member, said slide member having flanges slidably engaging said bearing port-ions and one of said members being resilient to exert a yieldable pressure upon the other.
9. The combination with a window and a regulator therefor, of a member secured to said window and having bearing portions facing in opposite directions, one of the bearing portions being in the nature of a flange, and a slide member connected to said regulator and embracing said first mentioned member, said slide member having 11 ortions slida-bly engaging said bearing portions and one of said members being resilient to exerts. yielda-ble pressure upon the other.
In testimony whereof I aiflX my signature.
