Definitions

  • the driving mechanism for the threaded flexible cable includes a housing mounting a driving pinion which engages the cable and which also rotates a spring pulley which carries a spring which is wound during the opening of the window and which is unwound to aid in the driving force during the closing of the window.
  • the construction includes a housing having two interengageable parts which together define an enclosing tube for receiving and holding a rigid plastic tube in which the cable is movable.
  • the rigid tube is held in a secure position within the housing tubular formation in a manner which prevents axial displacement as well as rotation thereof by a fonnation of plastic sleeves at each end of the housing tubular formation which are formed directly over the rigid plastic tube carrying the threaded cable and which includes projections which engage within recesses of the housing and prevent rotation or axial displacement of the plastic tube.
  • the tube and the plastic sleeves are preferably made of a material such as copolymerized polyacetals and are formed such as by spraying directly over a rigid tube fonnation for the threaded cable which has been provided with knurlings or grooves on its exterior surface for facilitating interengagement of the sleeve with the rigid tube.
  • the rigid tube containing the threaded cable is provided with a notch or cut-away portion at the location on the interior of said housing to facilitate meshing engagement of a driving pinion within the housing with the threaded cable contained within the tube.
  • the invention particularly relates to a mechanism for raising and lowering windows in a car by the use of a flexible connecting cable which is rotated by a driving gear in order to advance it axially to cause displacement of a mounting member connected to the window pane which rides in a vertical trackway.
  • a flexible connecting cable which is rotated by a driving gear in order to advance it axially to cause displacement of a mounting member connected to the window pane which rides in a vertical trackway.
  • the guide tube for the flexible cable as a slotted metal tube only in the area of the path of movement of the threaded cable in the vicinity of the driving mechanism and the remaining portion comprise a flexible plastic hose surrounding the threaded cable. This design permits easy adaptation of the cable path to the available mounting space and makes the difficult bending of a slotted metal tube unnecessary.
  • the flexible plastic hoses can only be connected to the drive housing and the slotted metal tube by means of an extensive clamping and screw connection.
  • the connection to the drive housing in such an arrangement is effected by hose ends which are hung in at both sides of the drive pinion between the housing halves so only the cable extends through the drive housing. This not only results in a considerable friction, caused by gear pressure, on the cable adjacent the housing wall which is opposite to the gear pinion but it also permits an axial displacement between the two hose ends and this still further increases the friction.
  • the use of plastic material for substantial lengths of the guide tube is otherwise desirable because it permits reduction of the friction of the threaded cable in its guide tube and this increases the operational torsional moment at the driving pinion. This is particularly so where the cable and the guide tube have to be placed within relatively small radius of curvature in the mounting space. It is known that the dynamic friction co-efficient of steel against steel is substantially higher than that of steel against most plastic materials.
  • the invention permits in a window operating mechanism of the above indicated type, the replacement of the metal guide tube by plastic material and at the same time avoids the disadvantages of the known constructions. Generally speaking, the invention reduces the necessary driving torsion moment in the cable operated devices for raising and lowering windows.
  • a relatively stifl plastic tube for rotatably supporting the threaded driving cable therewithin.
  • the tube may be thermally bent to the desired cable path and it is advantageously provided with a recess which may be located within the drive housing for engagement of the driving pinion with the threaded cable contained within the plastic tube.
  • the rigid plastic tube, or even a small length of a metal tube may be sprayed with plastic to form sleeves which project from the tube surface or extend outwardly and are rigidly connected with the drive housing and/or the rigid metal tube by interengagement of the matching molded parts.
  • a window operating mechanism constructed in accordance with the invention can be manufactured economically with either one track or two tracks and it is of outstanding construction in view of its simple and yet reliable connections between the plastic tubes for the rotatable flexible threaded cable and the drive housing. It is also sufficiently elastic in the area of the plastic tube so that the production tolerances at the mounting locations may be balanced without impermissible deformation in the tube axis in the area of the plastic tube which is under the load of tension or pressure as it occurs in the opening and closing of a vehicle window.
  • a window raiser constructed in accordance with the invention as compared to a cable window raiser having an all metal tube guiding for the threaded flexible cable requires a driving torsion moment which is 20 percent lower.
  • the drive torsional moment of 20 cmkg for an operating mechanism with continuous metal tube guiding is reduced by the invention to about only 16.5 cmkg.
  • the plastic tube and the plastic sleeves copolymerized polyacetals are excellent. Good results have been achieved with the plastic l-lostaform", (registered trademark of Farbwerke l-loechst AG) an acetalcopolymerizate essentially produced from trioxane. Window operating devices equipped with this plastic were fully functioning with as much as 80,000 up and down strokes (reversing movements).
  • the rigid guide tube of plastic material although not chemically bound to the border surfaces is nevertheless fixedly connected to a sleeve element at each end of the tubular formation of the driving housing.
  • the sleeve elements are advantageously sprayed over the material of the tube and the rigid tube is provided with depressions and/or elevations which interengage with the material of the sprayed on sleeves so that a firm nonrotatable connection is effected.
  • This connection is further enhanced by a minor shrinking of the sleeve after it cools and the resultant structure provides a very durable tube which is resistant to mechanical stresses.
  • the shape of the projections or recesses formed on the underlying tube determines the amount and degree of securement against rotation and axial displacement of the two parts.
  • the affixed sleeves advantageously include extensions or projections which interengage in similarly formed recesses of the tubular housing portion in order to provide a locking interengagement of the tube with the housing for the purpose of fixing the orientation of the threaded flexible sleeve in respect to the driving gear within the housing.
  • the invention construction includes a drive housing having a rotatable spring gear or spring pulley which is hollow and provides a storage area for a spring.
  • a coil spring arranged in the interior of the spring gear is wound when the driving pinion drives the flexible threaded cable in a direction to open the window and it unwinds and drives through its associated gear to the gear pinion when the window is to be moved in a closing direction.
  • the arrangement provides a very compact orientation of the spring in a position to readily cooperate with the driving elements in the drive housing.
  • the spring pulley and also a cover therefore is advantageously made of a plastic material and it is mounted on a hub portion which is affixed to the drive housing at a stationary location and provides an inner fixed mounting for the inner end of the coil spring, the outer end being connected to the rotatable pulley.
  • the guiding tube for the threaded cable at the location of the drive housing may either be made of a rigid plastic or it may comprise a slotted metal tube, and in either instance a flexible plastic hose is secured to each end for the purpose of anchoring the tube in respect to the housing.
  • the flexible plastic hose may comprise a polyvinylchloride based plastic which may be formed to provide for any modification of the mounting arrangement.
  • an object of the invention to provide an operating device for transmitting motion to an object such as a window through a flexible threaded cable by driving it through a rotatable gear or pinion and which includes a housing for the gear and pinion which accommodates a rigid plastic tube for the threaded cable and which includes a sleeve formation on each end of the tube, at the locations where it passes through the housing, for anchoring the tube against displacement in rotational and axial directions.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a device particularly intended for operating car windows which includes a threaded flexible cable which is adapted to be connected to a guide member the latter being movable in a substantially vertical guideway for raising and lowering the window; and which includes a drive housing having a tubular portion which engages over a rigid plastic tube member for enclosing the threaded cable and which includes means for holding the tubular member in a fixed orientation in respect to the tubular portion of the housing and wherein the housing includes a driving spring gear having a hollow for containing a spring therein which is windable when the threaded member is driven in one direction and unwindable to drive the driving gear when the threaded flexible cable member is moved in an opposite direction.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a window operating mechanism which is simple in design, rugged in construction, and economical to manufacture.
