A window regulator device includes a rail having at least one projecting lug, a plate having at least one lug, a drive cable, and a cable drum placed in a recess of the plate. The plate is fixed to the rail by a joint action of a tensioned drive cable and the mutual imbrication of the lugs of the plate and the rail. The assembly of the window regulator device is simplified, and the drum can be fixed independently of the mounting and removal of an actuation motor.

The invention relates to a method of assembling an opening leaf with a vehicle chassis, comprising the steps of measuring geometric references on the contour of an opening in a vehicle chassis, supplying an opening leaf corresponding to the opening in the chassis, adjusting at least one hinge secured to the chassis and to the opening leaf, according to references measured on the opening, assembling the opening leaf with the chassis using the adjusted hinge. The invention allows a door to be assembled with a vehicle precisely and in a minimum number of steps.

A device for guiding and retaining electric cables in a vehicle includes a first part with a cable guide channel and a second part with a cable retainer that retains the cables in the guide channel. The first part guides cables in a desired direction while the second part allows cables to be retained inside or extracted from the guide channel. The second part compresses the cables placed in the guide channel against the first part. The device also includes a securing means to connect to the vehicle. The second part compresses the cables placed in the guide channel against the first part. The device also includes a securing means to connect to the vehicle.

A window lifter comprises a cable, a window linkage driven by the cable, a fixed device and a cable redirecting device. The cable redirecting device is rotatably mounted on the fixed device and adapted to automatically lock onto the fixed device upon reaching a predetermined angular position. In addition, the cable redirecting device has a cable guiding portion which is not a figure of revolution about the axis of rotation relative to the fixed device. This window lifting mechanism provides a simple structure with few elements. Its assembly is also simple: the cable-redirecting device is rotatably mounted on the fixed device; it is thereafter rotated for tensioning the cable and then locked in a position where the cable is tensioned.
