Abstract
A window regulator so constructed as not to be deteriorated in slidability between a band member and a guide surface is disclosed. An end of the band member formed annularly by a slider is guided by a guide member so that the inner side surface of the band member slides along the guide surface. The guide surface includes lateral grooves, brushes and a recess. The lateral grooves always retain grease and supply an appropriate amount of it to the inner side surface of the band member by the sliding motion of the latter. The brushes remove dust and dirt which may attach to the inner side surface of the band member by the sliding motion thereof. The recess keeps off the dust and dirt attached on the periphery of engaging holes of the band member from the space between the guide surface and the inner side surface of the band member. The slidability between the band member and the guide surface thus is not deteriorated and the band member can smoothly slide along the guide surface.
