A window drive mechanism for motor vehicles including a driving cable operatively extending between a plurality of tubes each having adjoining ends with radially outwardy extending flared collars, the adjoining ends being connected together by a plastic clamping member which consists of two clamp halves adapted to receive therebetween said flared ends and being clipped together to connect said tubes with the clamp halves of the clamping member being each provided with an inner circumferential groove for receiving therein, respectively, the flared collars of the tubes.

Tubular window drive mechanism particularly for motor vehicles

A device for driving a rope-like power transmission member for a window lifting mechanism, such as in a motor vehicle, includes a casing with a worm rotatably supported within the casing, a worm gear in the casing and in engagement with the worm and an electric motor driving the worm. A rope drum is positioned within the casing and a coupling part interconnects the drum and the worm gear. The casing has an opening for moving the rope out of the casing. A sealing plate is located between the worm gear and the coupling part and divides the interior of the casing into a first partial space containing the worm and worm gear and a second partial space containing the drum and the coupling part. The sealing plate is arranged in form-locking engagement with the worm gear and it has an annular area facing toward the drum which is in contact with an annular area on the inner surface of the casing.

Electric drive, particularly for a window lifting mechanism in a motor

An electrical window lift drive especially for use in a motor vehicle, includes a drive housing, an electric motor attached to the housing having a shaft extending into the interior of the housing. A worm gear is mounted on the motor shaft for rotation thereby. A worm wheel is mounted for independent rotation coaxially with respect to a first portion of a bearing shaft inside the housing on a member intermediate the bearing shaft and the wheel. The bearing shaft is supported in the housing on both sides of the worm wheel and extends transversely of the motor shaft. The worm wheel meshes with and is driven by the worm gear. A drive member is mounted coaxially with respect to a second portion of the bearing shaft, and means are provided intermediate the worm gear and the drive member for transferring rotary motion of the worm gear to the drive member.

Window lift drive

A drive mechanism for the window of a motor vehicle includes a carriage having the window affixed thereto and a carrier attached to the carriage with a drive cable having the carrier fastened in driven engagement therewith. A guide tube made of plastic material surrounds the drive cable and a support tube surrounds the guide tube. Both the support tube and the guide tube are formed with a longitudinal slot through which a portion of the carrier may extend in order to effect the driven engagement between the drive cable and the carrier.
