Description

The The invention relates to a method for mounting guide rails on a carrier according to the preamble of claim 1, and a guide rail for performing the Method and a subframe of a motor vehicle door with guide rails to be attached thereto.

Along two guide rails between two end positions movable Components are used in many areas. Usually are essentially planar components, such as Abdeckplatte- or plan or windows, along two guide rails a carrier carrying the guide rails displaceable arranged.

at the attachment and alignment of such guide rails relative to each other or relative to the carrier stands for a guarantee of a jam-free or low-friction Movement of the component along the guide rails after completion of assembly in the foreground. To the other are the guide rails always relative to the sliding Adjust the component so that it reaches the end positions Can take a way. For this purpose, care is taken to the guide rails adjust during or after assembly.

From the DE 41 02 942 C1 a device is known which serves for the vertical displacement of a window pane. In this case, an additional receiving part is provided on a guide rail, with which the edge region of the window pane fastened to the guide rail can be adjusted to the desired height position. This ensures that in already fixed to a support or subframe of a motor vehicle door guide rail, the window can still be readjusted to its final position within the vehicle door.

The DE 197 51 199 A1 describes an adjusting device which is provided for adjusting a component relative to at least one other component. In particular, the alignment of a window pane is provided in a frame of a motor vehicle door. The adjusting device has inter alia an adjusting bolt and is designed so that by axial displacement of the adjusting bolt an articulated thereto component such. B. a window of a motor vehicle door, relative to another component such. B. a guide rail can be adjusted.

The mentioned devices or associated adjustment method However, they are disadvantageous insofar as they are only an afterthought Adjusting a component relative to another component, such as a guide rail, take into account. In addition, will be always movable in addition to the components to be aligned Provided elements with which the alignment must be made.

Of the The invention is therefore based on the problem of a method for mounting of guide rails for one along the guide rails to provide sliding component, the adjustment of the Improved guide rails on the support and already during assembly.

This Problem is inventively with the method solved with the features of claim 1.

After that is a method for mounting guide rails on one Carrier provided, wherein a first guide rail and the second guide rail with a component, in particular a window pane of a motor vehicle door, are connected, that on the carrier along the guide rails is displaceable between two end positions. The first guide rail is immovably fixed to the carrier. The second, with her connected via the component guide rail is first attached to the support in this way is that the second guide rail at least still in Direction of their longitudinal extension and re their position relative to the first guide rail is adjustable. Thereafter, the component is moved to a first end position. The movement of the component causes a movement of the second guide rail in the direction of its longitudinal extent, so that the second guide rail is at the first end position of the Component is set. Before the second guide rail is fixed to the carrier, the second guide rail adjusted to the carrier transversely to its longitudinal extent, around the second guide rail relative to the first guide rail adjust.

to Adjustment of the second guide rail transversely to its longitudinal extent learns the second guide rail accordingly a force transverse to its longitudinal extent, relative to it is set to the first guide rail. The introduction the engaging force for adjusting the second guide rail considered relative to the first guide rail this any kind of force, such. B. also a tensile or compressive force or a moment.

For the implementation of the method is essential that the first guide rail is already fixed to the support in the desired position or not (more) adjustable mounted. In this case, therefore, a possible adjustment of the first guide rail is already completed or the first guide rail has not been attached to the support adjustable or adjustable at the Carrier molded. Only on the first still adjustable and not aligned second guide rail and on the displacement of the component, the assembly consisting of two guide rails and the component is adjusted to the support relative to each other, so that the displacement of the component can be carried out as low as possible after assembly.

By the procedure according to the invention is the guide rail already in the assembly phase to the final position of the to be moved Component set and in this regard no further adjustment necessary after fixing the guide rails. Especially It should be emphasized that the movement of the component at the same time causes the adjustment or adjustment of the second guide rail. It also ensures that in a simple and responsive way during assembly both a setting and orientation the second guide rail relative to the component as also the guide rails relative to each other is possible.

Therefore takes place with the inventive method in Frame of attachment of the second guide rail to the Carrier a setting of the second guide rails in at least two spatial directions. First, the Adjustment in the direction of its longitudinal extent, through the movement of the component is caused. Then the adjustment takes place in at least one further spatial direction, to a position of the second Guide rail relative to the first guide rail set and then fix in which the two Guide rails a defined displacement of the component as possible allow free of jamming and tension.

in this connection It should be noted that the guide rails after completion the assembly also in a position relative to each other on the carrier they can not be fixed, in which they are not aligned next to each other arranged or inclined towards each other. Likewise the guide rails have different lengths. However, it is preferred that the guide rails in are about the same length and at least parallel to each other on the Carrier are arranged after the assembly process is completed.

A another particularly preferred embodiment of the invention Method provides that the second guide rail transversely adjusted to its longitudinal extent and relative to the first guide rail is adjusted by the component from the first end position in Direction of the second end position is moved. The component becomes Consequently, in the direction of the second end position or preferably in the second end position is moved after the guide rail has been set to the first end position. This can be the second Guide rail relative and / or at a defined distance be aligned to the first guide rail. With others Words to be moved, component, such as a rigid Window, defines or effects in such a case, the orientation the two guide rails to each other. So z. B. ensures that by moving the component, the two guide rails to each other run parallel and thus between the component after assembly the two end positions are moved almost free of tension can.

at Such an embodiment may, for. B. be provided that the second guide rail already over an attachment point pivotable in the region of its one end on the carrier is attached. By moving the component is then the second The guide rail is given away so that the component is uniform or is guided in a straight line. Following the move the component in the second end position then becomes the second guide rail fixed at the end, which is the end with the pivotal attachment opposite. The by moving the component made alignment or orientation of the second guide rail relative to the first guide rail is about maintained the component until the fixation of the second guide rail is done on the carrier.

Preferably the method is extended so that the second guide rail after the setting on the first end position of the component in such a way the carrier is attached that only their orientation relative to the first guide rail or their distance be changed to the first guide rail can. As the distance between the two guide rails is here In general, the distance between your centers is considered. The Change in the distance between the two guide rails is distinguished from orientation relative to each other while maintaining the second guide rail their orientation on the carrier transverse to their longitudinal extent is moved or moved. In contrast, in the Change of orientation twisting or pivoting considered the second guide rail.

Depending on the desired mobility or alignment possibility of the second guide rail relative to the first, already fixed guide rail thus the second guide rail is fixed with further limited range of motion to the carrier. Already after the movement respectively the displacement of the second guide rail in the set to the first end position of the component position so only certain axes or a specific axis are presented along which the adjustment can be made with respect to the first guide rail.

In this embodiment is further preferred that the second guide rail after adjustment on the first end position of the component by at least one clamping connection is attached to the carrier. Realized this clamping connection, that the position of the second guide rail on the carrier in at least one spatial direction, especially in the direction of the longitudinal extent the second guide rail, not or no longer changed can be. At the same time she can have flexible or elastic But elements be designed so that the clamping connection a further alignment relative to the first guide rail allowed.

in the Course of the variants described so far, the second guide rail after moving the component to the first end position also already aligned relative to the first fixed guide rail be. It will therefore only the distance between the two guide rails to each other on the carrier via the second guide rail be set. This can be z. B. be the case when the second Guide rail in the direction of its longitudinal extent extending slot that has a flexible or elastic fit with a bolt or other in the Long hole guided, elongated connecting element attached to the carrier. The connecting element or the Slot allow a shift in the direction of the longitudinal extent the second guide rail when moving the component in the first end position. This on the first end position of the component aligned position of the second guide rail can be locked in such a way that the second guide rail over the slot no longer in the direction of its longitudinal extent can be moved. About the flexible or elastic Fit of connecting element and slot or by the compression between the connecting element and slot arranged elements remains the second guide rail but at least still vertical displaceable to its longitudinal direction in this respect, that the distance of the two guide rails within a defined tolerance range can be set.

In similar Manner or via an alternative mounting design can in the context of an embodiment of the invention Provided method that the second guide rail after the setting on the first end position of the component pivotable is attached to the carrier. So, consequently, the alignment the second guide rail relative to the already fixed Guide rail made by pivoting or turning become.

Prefers is in such a variant that the second guide rail then only about an axis that is substantially perpendicular to the carrier is and points in the direction of the second guide rail, is pivotable. Especially with one usually almost plan subframe of a motor vehicle door as a "carrier" and a windowpane as a "component" is thus in other words the pivoting the second guide rail about an axis perpendicular to carried out the carrier.

These Process variant can preferably be supplemented so that by moving the second guide rail in Direction of its longitudinal extension, the second guide rail so arrested on the carrier, that they are only around the Axis that is substantially perpendicular to the carrier and in the direction of the second guide rail, pivots is. That means in contrast to an afterthought to be performed attachment is the second guide rail already at or with the setting to the first end position of the Component locked pivotally. For this could in the exemplary embodiment of the invention set forth above second guide rail with a slot, the slot so be formed so that it is in the longitudinal direction the second guide rail tapers. Will now the second guide rail on the carrier the movement of the component in its first end position in the direction their longitudinal direction so moved that a Pin inside the elongated hole approximates the taper requires the displacement of the component at the same time the lock the second guide rail. The least minor Pivotability of the second guide rail about a bolt longitudinal axis is provided by a flexible or elastic fit within the slot guaranteed.

In a further advantageously configured method is the second Guide rail at least in the region of its ends on the Carrier attached and / or fixed. Will be the second Guide rail in the region of the end of the carrier attached, closest to the component in the first end position lies, the second guide rail can first be stabilized at this one end to the carrier. The orientation of the second guide rail will continue facilitated.

It is then further desired to minimize the necessary attachment points on the second guide rail or the corresponding connecting elements or recesses on the carrier and at the same time provide an easy way to align relative to the first fixed guide rail. For this purpose, the second guide notes is fixed in the region of the opposite end to the carrier. Thus, the second guide rail can optionally over only two Be fixed fixing points and fixed to the carrier.

For an improved assembly process can also be provided, the second guide rail first by hanging to attach to the carrier. Basically the component before or after the first attachment of the second guide rail with this be connected. By attaching the second Guide rail on the carrier will but in each Case facilitates the first attachment of the second guide rail.

The The method can be further extended to provide it is that the component at least or only in its first end position rests in a guide frame, which supports the component. For example, the method of the invention is also in a motor vehicle door of a convertible with subframe and insert to be moved window. Hereby sees the motor vehicle door within the window opening usually no lateral guide frame. As a rule, the Window pane during assembly then in a vehicle roof integrated guide frame introduced with sealing lips or moved into this.

in principle The component to be moved may be before the final Aligning fixing the second guide rail already to the carrier, z. B. in which it already before the Attachment of the second guide rail in a lateral guide frame is guided. But it is also in the context of the procedure possible that the component only by the first time moving in the guide frame or the first end position relative is aligned with the carrier.

Usually are slid along the two guide rails driver guided connected to the component to be moved are. Here are now in the implementation of the invention Method the two drivers on the guide rails by moving the component in the first end position preferred arranged so that they at least in a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of extension of the first fixed guide rail lie next to each other. When fastening two guide rails, after mounting each other in parallel on a flat carrier are arranged, the drivers can by moving then the component in the first end position then aligned with each other be aligned.

is the component at least before mounting the second guide rail or before moving the component in the first end position relative to Slightly tilted to the wearer, the procedure is both an alignment of the second guide rail and the Carrier realized. In this context, it is important to that is the at least two, each with a guide rail connected drivers offset from each other on the guide rails represent when the component is tilted relative to the carrier is.

Around the rigidity of the arrangement of guide rails and Can increase component during assembly, can be provided be, the two guide rails next to the component over to connect another element. This connects the two guide rails rigid or flexible with each other. Usually, the Force the second guide rail on the carrier to move in the direction of its longitudinal extension, from the Component or a driver on the second guide rail during the movement of the component in the first end position exerted or caused. Preferably, this force is now over initiated the additional element.

Advantageous is, if it is a cable, which is also part of a Adjustment may be that the displacement of the component realized between the two end positions. This adjustment is then preferably also used to move to realize the component during the presented process.

A Variant further provides that the cable Areas near the ends of the guide rails connecting with each other after fixing the two Guide rails on the support diagonally opposite. On This way, the movement of the second guide rail in the direction of their longitudinal extension by the action the force is made by the cable to the second guide rail exerts when the component via the adjustment is moved to the first end position.

in the Under the procedure, it is also possible that the first guide rail not only on the carrier fixed, but is integrated and molded to this. For example in the manufacture of the plastic carrier is a such variant for reducing the number of parts relatively easy to realize and advantageous. Because the alignment and the necessary Tolerance compensation in at least two spatial directions based on the second guide rail is done with the described Procedure nevertheless ensures that the component after assembly optimally between the two end positions on the carrier, d. H. as possible without clamping and tension, be moved can.

As already stated above, guide rails are used for carrying out the method provided, wherein the second guide rail preferably has an attachment point or guide point, which is designed and provided that is fixed by moving the component in the first end position, the second guide rail on the attachment point or guide point on the support, that only their orientation relative to the first fixed guide rail or its distance to the first guide rail can be changed. In this case, a guide point is understood to mean a position on the guide rail along which the guide rail can be moved on the carrier in its longitudinal direction, but over which the second guide rail is not necessarily fixed to the carrier. In other words, it is optionally formed in addition to the responsible for the fixing attachment points on the guide rail. Preferably, a guide point is formed so that it can be done via the immovable fixation of the second guide rail on the carrier.

there is the realization of a clamping connection with the carrier through the attachment or guide point when moving of the component in the first end position preferred. This can over a tapered slot can be provided that additionally in its interior a flexible or elastic Element, such as in the form of a rubber lining.

Furthermore the slot can have at least one scraper rib in its interior or preferably a plurality of scraper ribs. These are designed so that a guided within the slot Bolt having a diameter substantially the same largest width of the slot corresponds, when approaching to the rejuvenation of the slot through an intervention of the Scraper ribs are locked in the bolt. The scraper ribs can for this until the first end position of the component is taken be squashed or bent when such a bolt on the Carrier is provided.

That the scraper ribs are integrally formed on the further element provides thus another possibility, a particularly advantageous Guide rail for the implementation of the described Process to realize.

in the Backing is also a functional components carrying subframe a motor vehicle door based on the presented method to improve. This is among others with the at least two Guide rails connected to a windowpane for that are provided that the window pane along the guide rails slidable between two end positions on the subframe is. The subframe has at least one molded Connecting element or a recess, or formed to the and provided that by first moving the window pane in a first end position of the guide rails over its attachment point to the connecting element or the recess is attached to the subframe so that only another orientation of the guide rail relative to a already fixed to the subframe guide rail or changed their distance to the fixed guide rail can be.

In Based on the previously made explanation is now either the recess on the subframe in accordance with that described for the guide rail Slot provided, and a corresponding bolt on the guide rail appropriate.

It but can also be a molded bolt as a connecting element be formed the subframe, with an additional Element, preferably flexible or elastic, is sheathed. With such an embodiment provides the subframe in interaction with the slot of the guide rail the presented self-reinforcing clamp connection ready and the manufacturing costs for the guide rails is reduced.

unanimously Consequently, the bolt can have scraper ribs which are formed are that the bolt inside a tapered slot locked by an engagement of the scraper ribs in the slot is, if it has a diameter, which is essentially the largest width of the slot corresponds to and the rejuvenation of the oblong hole is approximated.

Also It is therefore possible that the scraper ribs on the additional Element are formed.

Further Features and advantages of the invention will become apparent in the following Description of exemplary embodiments with reference to the figures become clear.

It demonstrate:

2 in side view a motor vehicle door with a window opening into which a window pane is fitted;

3A - 3C in side view a support of a motor vehicle door and two attached to it ing guide rails for a window pane in a preferred embodiment in different phases of attachment of the second guide rail;

4 a perspective view of a mounting variant for the second guide rail on the carrier;

5 a variant of the attachment and attachment of a guide rail on a support.

In 1A is schematically shown in side view a planner carrier T, at the two equal length guide rails 1 and 2 are to be attached. Such a carrier T can z. B. be a functional components carrying subframe of a motor vehicle door. The guide rails 1 and 2 each have a driver 13 . 23 on, which is designed so that it along the guide rails 1 and 2 is displaceable. For this purpose, the drivers 13 and 23 on the guide rail 1 respectively. 2 for example, be guided in a sliding manner.

The drivers 13 and 23 are connected to a component that is not shown in this illustration for reasons of clarity. This may be z. Example, to act a window or a cover, via the driver 13 and 23 along the guide rails 1 and 2 parallel to the carrier T between two end positions is displaceable.

Ideally, the guide rails should 1 and 2 after completion of the assembly be oriented towards each other, leaving a component that along the guide rails 1 and 2 is moved, not jammed and thus can be moved smoothly and smoothly. The necessary parallelism of the two guide rails 1 and 2 and the aligned arrangement of the drivers 13 and 23 has hitherto to realize only in a complicated or cumbersome way and is simplified below with reference to the explained in the figures process steps.

In the in the 1A shown phase of assembly is the one guide rail 1 already over attachment points 11 and 12 fixed to the carrier T so as to extend substantially parallel to the carrier T limited side edges. In the case of use in a motor vehicle door, the one guide rail would 1 thus extend substantially perpendicular to a vehicle underside. The fixation on the carrier T via the attachment points 11 and 12 takes place in the region of the two ends of the guide rail 1 and in a known manner via rivets, screws or other non-positive, positive or cohesive connection options.

The over the drivers 13 and 23 and thus on the displaceable component with the one guide rail 1 connected second guide rail 2 is in the 1A over a recess 5 attached to the carrier T. Unlike the first guide rail 1 is the second guide rail 2 not immovably fixed to the carrier T. It is rather about the recess 5 which acts as a guide point and into which a molded projection or bolt of the carrier T is inserted, on the one hand rotatably or at least pivotally mounted on the carrier T. On the other hand, the recess points 5 the shape of a in the longitudinal direction of the guide rail 2 extending slot, so that the second guide rail 2 parallel to the already fixed first guide rail 1 can be moved.

Accordingly, the second guide rail 2 in the in 1A not yet parallel to the first guide rail 1 oriented, but presents itself at an angle to this. Furthermore, the second guide rail 2 attached to the support T so that it is the first guide rail 1 surmounted. In other words, that means the two guide rails 1 and 2 despite matching length are not aligned side by side. In addition, there are the drivers 13 and 23 at different points of the guide rail 1 respectively. 2 , being the driver 23 the second guide rail 2 above the driver 13 located.

Consequently, an orientation of the second guide rail 2 necessary, parallel to the flat surface of the carrier T on the one hand in the longitudinal direction Z of the fixed guide rail 1 as well as perpendicular to this, ie in the X direction, must be made to a parallel and aligned orientation of the driver 13 and 23 or the guide rails 1 and 2 to ensure each other.

With the 1B becomes a later stage of attachment of the second guide rail 2 shown. The guide rail 2 was due to the transfer of the component in an end position parallel to the first guide rail 1 moves, leaving the ends of the guide rails 1 and 2 located at the same height on the carrier T. The guided movement of the second guide rail 2 along the carrier T, for example, as already mentioned, via the guidance of a bolt of the carrier T in the recess 5 the second guide rail 2 guaranteed.

For this purpose, the component is transferred to the carrier T in one of its two end positions. This movement of the component then causes the shift or the first orientation of the not yet fixed, second guide rail 2 because the component z. B. made of a relatively stiff material and with the drivers 13 and 23 connected is. There will be a force on the second guide rail 2 initiated against the direction of displacement of the component, so that the second guide rail 2 is moved in the direction of its longitudinal extent on the carrier T.

It is Z. B. conceivable that the driver 23 the second guide rail 2 before moving the component at the location of the guide rail 2 locked or engaged, which marks the first end position of the component. In the present example the 1A - 1C So would be the driver 23 in the area of the upper end of the guide rail 2 locked. The driver 13 the fixed guide rail 1 is on the other hand below the driver 23 , The component is thus tilted in relation to its desired end position on the carrier T. If, however, the component is moved to its first, upper end position, the given degree of freedom of the individual components causes the driver 13 along the guide rail 1 moved in the direction of movement of the component and at the same time the driver 23 together with the guide rail 2 moved against this direction of movement. Due to the guidance of the second guide rail 2 on the carrier T via the recess 5 Thus, the setting is conditional on the first end position of the component. Upon reaching the predetermined first end position of the component, the guide rail 2 thus moved so that it is set to this end position. The drivers 13 and 23 are arranged in alignment next to each other and the second guide rail 2 only needs to be transverse to its longitudinal extent, so relative to the fixed guide rail 1 to be discontinued. The locking of the driver 23 Can be removed after the guide rail 2 via an attachment point 21 in the region of its end, that of the component in this first end position or the driver 23 is closest to the carrier T has been attached.

In the 1C It illustrates how the alignment of the two guide rails 1 and 2 relative to each other according to the above-described adjustment of the second guide rail 2 can take place on the first end position of the component. The second guide rail 2 is over the attachment point 21 attached to the carrier T such that they are at the attachment point 21 about an axis perpendicular to the carrier T is pivotable. The component was moved in the direction of the other end position, as based on the two drivers 13 and 23 can be seen. These are in this representation thus in the region of the lower ends of the guide rails 1 and 2 that the in 1B opposite shown end position. Due to the displacement of the rigid component, the two guide rails 1 and 2 aligned parallel to each other and ensure that they allow a tension-free as possible movement of movement of the component between its two end positions on the carrier T. Like in the 1C shown, then becomes the second guide rail so aligned 2 via an attachment point 22 fastened at the other end to the support T or immovably fixed.

In contrast to the realization of a fastening of the second guide rail 2 with the goal that it remains pivotable, it would also be possible the recess 5 elongated and with an at least flexible fit form. This is the second guide rail 2 perpendicular to the first guide rail 1 and parallel to the carrier T by applying a force transversely to its longitudinal extent. This force allows in the context of flexible or resilient fit to the recess 5 the at least slight displacement of the second guide rail 2 transverse to its longitudinal extent. In this way, after moving the component into the first end position, the distance between the two guide rails 1 and 2 be adjusted via the component. Preferably then are on each guide rail 1 and 2 several spaced drivers 13 and 23 arranged. The component, which is arranged in a position between the two end positions, thus defines the unique orientation or position of the two guide rails 1 and 2 to each other. The second guide rail 2 is then preferably fixed at its two ends to the carrier T.

With the 2 is shown in side view of the upper portion of a motor vehicle door D with a window opening O and arranged below the window opening O carrier T, which may be formed here as a known from the prior art subframe. On the carrier T are the two guide rails 1 and 2 fastened, with the guide rail 1 already immovably fixed. The guide rail 2 is over a recess 5 movably connected in the region of its visible end with the carrier T, which formed as a slot extending in the longitudinal direction of the guide rail and in which a bolt 51 of the carrier T is guided. With the two spaced guide rails 1 and 2 is a window S in a known manner on the driver 13 and 23 connected. The guide rail 2 we are also the driver assigned to it 23 above the already fixed guide rails 1 with her driver 13 in that the window pane S fastened thereto is not yet aligned relative to the support T within the window opening O and is therefore tilted.

In 2 So is the window S at the Transfer to the first end position clarifies in which they should completely obscure the window opening O, the window S in the motor vehicle door D would therefore be closed. Due to its inclination, the upper edge of the window S is only partially on or in a guide frame F, which limits the window opening O upwards. This guide frame F is z. B. provided by the roof of a motor vehicle or is part of the vehicle door. The upper edge of the window S is in the region of the guide frame F, that of the second guide rail 2 opposite, as this opposite the first guide rail 1 is still increased.

If the window pane S is moved further upwards or into the guide frame F from this illustrated situation, it aligns with the installation and the guide in the guide frame F relative to the carrier T at the rated position. In the present case, this means that the side edges bordering the window pane S are oriented parallel to the side edges of the window opening O. This is accompanied by the previously described force effect of the window S on the guide rail 2 so that it is adjusted to the end position of the window S, which corresponds to the closed use situation after completion of the assembly. The guide rail 2 is so z. B. adjusted in height to nominal size.

With the 3A - 3C an alternative embodiment of the method is shown in different phases, wherein the method with likewise further designed guide rails 10 and 20 is realized. In contrast to the previous figures are the guide rails 10 and 20 at their respective diagonally opposite ends via pulleys 8th with a cable 7 connected. This is part of a lifting device, z. B. a power window device, with an adjustment 70 and a drive 71 which realizes the displacement of the window pane S between its two end positions.

In contrast to the previously described embodiments have on the one hand, the driver 13 and 23 the guide rails 10 and 20 joints 14 and 24 on, over which the window pane S is to be fastened and which are adapted to allow their tilting. On the other hand is on the second guide rail 20 a tapered slot 50 in the area of the upper end of the guide rail 20 intended. The rejuvenation of the slot 50 takes place in the longitudinal extent of the second guide rail 20 , It is designed so that when moving the guide rail 20 as a result of the displacement of the window pane S in the first end position in the slot 50 led bolt 51 of the carrier T the tapered portion of the slot 50 approaches.

In the 3A is the guide rail 10 already vertically fixed to the carrier T and the second guide rail 20 over the long hole 50 and the bolt 51 movable and mounted almost parallel thereto. Furthermore, at the end of the guide rail 20 that the slot 50 opposite, an attachment point 4 educated. This attachment point 4 later allows the fixation of the guide rail 20 over z. B. a screw by pushing the screw through an opening 40 at the attachment point 4 and a hole 41 is guided on the carrier T. The orientation of the two guide rails 10 and 20 in the various stages of the procedure is illustrated by the horizontal auxiliary lines A, B and C, wherein the auxiliary line A is the height of the first guide rail 1 , the auxiliary line B the initial height of the driver 13 at the beginning of installation and the auxiliary line C the position of the hole 41 indicates to the carrier T. The second guide rail 20 and her driver 23 are above the position of the first guide rail 10 or the driver 13 ,

By the displacement of the window pane S in the first, in this case the upper end position on the carrier T via the actuation of the adjusting device 70 on the one hand the driver 23 moved up. At the same time takes place by the introduction of a force on the upper end of the guide rail 20 or on the pulley 8th over the cable 7 the movement of the second guide rail 20 along the in the slot 50 guided bolt 51 in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the guide rail 20 , The guide rail 20 is thus set in the Z direction, counter to the direction of displacement of the window S, and by means of the tapered slot 50 locked simultaneously. This is preferably done via flexible or elastic elements between bolts 51 and long hole 50 facilitated and supported by scraper ribs, which will be explained in more detail with reference to a subsequent figure.

The state after moving the window S in the uppermost end position is with 3B to see. The second guide rail 20 is now aligned within predefined tolerances in the Z direction on the carrier T. However, it must now transversely to its longitudinal extent respetive perpendicular to the first guide rail 10 , in the X direction, to be adjusted in order to reduce or avoid possible stresses during the displacement of the window pane S after assembly.

By the yielding within certain limits fit of slot 50 and bolts 50 will ensure that the second guide rail 20 around the bolt 50 can be pivoted. Now be according to the 3C the window pane S including the drivers 13 and 23 transferred to the other, ie lower, end position on the carrier T, the second guide rail 20 in the distance defined here parallel to the first guide rail 10 on the carrier T via the recess 40 and the hole 41 be fixed. Another fixation over the bolt 51 and the slot 50 can z. B. additionally with a on the bolt 51 be created to be applied mother. It is straight on these figures obvious, as with the method in a simple and optimized way, not only the desired parallelism of the two guide rails 10 and 20 but also their aligned arrangement next to each other without additional devices already during assembly can be guaranteed.

With the 4 becomes an easy to expand embodiment of the bolt 51 shown. This is by a transverse to the direction of extension of the bolt 51 curved section as a hook 510 formed so that the guide rail 2 about your recess 5 it is to be mounted before the displacement of the component or the window S in the first end position. Likewise, this may alternatively be the embodiment of the guide rail 20 of the 3A - 3C with a tapered slot 50 on a hook 510 to be hooked.

In the 5 is the tapered slot 50 with bolts guided in it 51 shown individually. Between long hole 50 and bolts 51 are scrape ribs 52 on the bolt 51 appropriate. These scraper ribs 52 extend substantially perpendicularly from the bolt 51 on its circumference. They bend or bend as the bolt approaches 51 to the tapered end of the slot 50 such that they engage in it and the bolt 51 in the slot 50 is locked. This locking can both in the direction of extension of the slot 50 as well as in extension direction of the bolt 51 respectively.

Depending on the manufacturing method of the guide rails 1 and 2 respectively. 10 and 20 and the carrier T, the scraper ribs may be formed and be made of plastic or metal. They can also be part of a flexible or elastic sheath of the bolt 51 or a lining of the elongated hole 50 be. In this way, so both a carrier T and a guide rail 1 . 2 . 10 or 20 be optimized with regard to their mounting options. It is also possible a hook 510 or bolt 51 on the guide rail 1 . 2 . 10 or 20 respectively a slot 50 or a recess 5 form on the carrier T.
