Description

The proposed solution relates to a window regulator assembly for the adjustment of a window pane.

Such a window regulator assembly comprises, inter alia, an adjustable between two end positions window pane, the window pane for taking one of the end positions, usually that end position in which the window completely closes a window opening, is adjustable in at least two different adjustment directions. For example, from the DE 37 40 034 A1 a window regulator assembly is known in which the window in the end position in which the window is completely closed, substantially flush with at least one window opening bordering the body part. In a hereby implemented, so-called flush-mounted window concept (also referred to as "flush glass" or "flush glazing"), the window pane is in its closed position flush with the upper and / or side body parts, so that the window pane with respect to its outside not opposite it is arranged to reset surrounding body parts. Rather, it is produced here at the impression of a continuous, flat disc and body surface on the vehicle side.

The DE 37 40 034 A1 Proposes that the vehicle window over the majority of their adjustment between the two end positions along a first. Adjustment and this is vertically adjustable along a vehicle vertical axis substantially. Before reaching the upper end position, in which the window completely closes the window opening, the window is forced an adjustment in a second adjustment and superimposed this adjustment with the adjustment along the first adjustment. The window pane thus experiences a pivoting and / or sliding movement in the direction of the vehicle outside, so that it closes flush with the window opening surrounding body parts when taking their upper end position. The DE 37 40 034 A1 provides in this case that the window pane is connected in the region of its lower edge of the window with a connecting element which is articulated on a guide element in the form of a pivoting lever. The guide element is displaceably guided on a guide rail extending substantially along the first adjustment direction and is deflected in the region of an upper region of the guide rail close to the door rail in order to impose an (additional) adjustment movement essentially along the horizontal for the window pane to assume its upper end position.

In particular, from the DE 37 40 034 A1 Known window regulator assembly for the adjustment of a window, which closes in an upper end position in which the window is completely closed, flush with adjacent body parts that bordered by the window to be closed window opening, but are in terms of stability, mountability and sealing of the window opening in the closed Condition of the window pane in need of improvement.

Thus, there is a need for an improved flameproofing device in this respect.

Against this background, a window regulator assembly according to claim 1 and a vehicle door with a window regulator assembly according to claim 21 is proposed, with which the aforementioned disadvantages can be overcome or at least reduced.

• - eine zwischen zwei (oberen und unteren) Endlagen verstellbare Fensterscheibe,
• - ein mit der Fensterscheibe verbundenes Verbindungselement, das einen Führungsabschnitt aufweist, und
• - eine Führungsschiene zur Vorgabe einer Verstellbahn für das Verbindungselement und die damit verbundene Fensterscheibe.

A window regulator assembly provided according to a first aspect of the proposed solution comprises at least

• a window pane adjustable between two (upper and lower) end positions,
• - A connected to the window pane connecting element, which has a guide portion, and
• - A guide rail for specifying an adjustment for the connecting element and the associated window.

• - die Führungsschiene eine erste Führungskulisse aufweist,
• - zusätzlich ein an der Führungsschiene verschieblich gelagertes Führungselement vorgesehen ist, das eine zweite Führungskulisse aufweist, und
• - der Führungsabschnitt des Verbindungselements sowohl an der der ersten Führungskulisse der Führungsschiene als auch an der zweiten Führungskulisse des Führungselements verschieblich gehalten ist, wodurch dem Verbindungselement bei Verschiebung des Führungselements entlang der Führungsschiene, um die Fensterscheibe in Richtung der einen Endlage zu verstellen, zunächst eine Verstellbewegung entlang einer ersten Verstellrichtung und anschließend eine Verstellbewegung entlang einer zu der ersten Verstellrichtung verschiedenen zweiten Verstellrichtung vorgegeben ist.

The guide portion of the connecting element is guided along the guide rail, wherein the connecting element and thereby the associated window, for taking one of the end positions, by means of the guide rail an adjustment in at least two different adjustment directions is predetermined. It is additionally provided that

• the guide rail has a first guide slot,
• - In addition, a displaceably mounted on the guide rail guide element is provided, which has a second guide slot, and
• - The guide portion of the connecting element is slidably held both on the first guide slot of the guide rail and on the second guide slot of the guide element, whereby the connecting element upon displacement of the guide element along the guide rail to adjust the window in the direction of an end position, first a Adjustment movement along a first adjustment direction and then an adjustment is predetermined along a different to the first adjustment direction second adjustment.

The proposed guidance of the guide section of the connecting element connected to the window pane on two different first and second guide slots of the guide rail on the one hand and the guide element displaceably mounted on the guide rail on the other hand thus enables an adjustment movement of the window pane in which the window pane is displaced in a large part of the adjustment area between the guide windows adjusted both end positions along the first adjustment, in particular raised and lowered. To capture the one, for example, the closed position of the window corresponding end position of the window pane but on the double link guide an adjustment in at least one additional, second adjustment forced. The adjustment along the second adjustment direction may in this case in particular include a pivoting movement and / or translational adjustment transversely to the first adjustment direction. In particular, the second adjustment direction relative to a condition of the window regulator assembly mounted as intended can point outwards, so that the window pane adjusted in the direction of its closed position is displaced outwards in a final section before reaching the end position via the double slide guide. As a result, the window pane is transferred to a position in which the window pane terminates flush with at least one body part bordering the window opening.

A guide portion of the connected to the window, in particular immovably fixed thereon connecting element may for example be pin-shaped or pin-shaped. For example, the guide portion is designed as a guide pin, which is slidably held, in particular in the first and second guide slots. The connecting element can basically be fixed to the window pane in different ways, for example via a screw, bolt, clip or adhesive connection.

In principle, the guide section can be mounted in a floating manner on the first and / or the second guide slot, for example in that the guide section has a smaller diameter than the respective guide slot. Such a floating mounting can allow self-centering of the window pane during assembly of the window regulator assembly or during a first adjustment of the window pane into one of the end positions (with the window regulator assembly already mounted).

In one embodiment variant, the guide element, upon adjustment of the window pane in the direction of the one end position (and thus in a last adjustment range before taking up this end position), is displaceable along the first adjustment direction relative to the connection element. By the corresponding relative movement - which need not necessarily be realized by a shift - can be applied to the connecting element via the guide slot of the guide element an adjusting force, which leads to an adjustment of the connecting element along the second adjustment direction. In a further development, for example, the first guide slot and the second guide slot are matched to one another such that when the guide element is displaced relative to the connecting element, an adjustment in the second adjustment direction can be imposed on the connecting element via the second guide slot of the guide element. In a portion of the adjustment before reaching the end position of the window thus leads the displacement of the guide element along the guide rail due to the permitted relative movement between the connecting element and guide element to an adjustment of the connecting element in the second adjustment.

In one exemplary embodiment, it is provided, for example, that the first guide slot provided on the guide rail has a first gate section extending along the first adjustment direction and a second gate section extending along the second adjustment direction. Over the different first and second gate sections of the guide rail, on which the guide portion of the connecting element is slidably held, thus ultimately an adjustment path for the connecting element and thus for the connected to the connecting portion of the window pane is specified. In order to move the guide portion of the connecting element along these two different gate sections of the guide rail, the guide element is used with its second guide slot on which the guide portion of the connecting element is also held displaceably. In this context, it is then provided, for example, that the guide portion of the connecting element is prevented at an end in the first adjustment direction end of the first link portion at an adjustment in the first adjustment direction. The first guide slot of the guide rail and the second guide slot of the guide element are in this case arranged and matched to each other, that when the guide portion abuts the lying in the first adjustment end of the first link section, a further displacement of the guide member along the guide rail in the first adjustment direction leads to a displacement of the guide section of the connecting element along the second guide track of the guide element, and thereby the guide section of the connecting element is displaced in the direction of the second link section of the guide rail and along this second gate section. The second guide slot of the guiding element displaceably guided on the guide rail thus has a course here, which displaces the guide section and thus the connecting element in the direction of the second guide section of the guide rail and on this second guide section, when the guide section of the connecting element engages in a further displacement in the guide rail first adjustment is prevented and the guide element is moved to the guide rail further in this first adjustment.

In one embodiment variant, the first guide slot of the guide rail has a ┌-shaped section. About this ┌-shaped portion of the first guide slot ("┌" for the majuscule of the Greek letter gamma) then the adjustments along the first and second adjustment can be specified. Alternatively or additionally, it may be provided that the second guide slot of the guide element extends at least in sections obliquely to the first adjustment direction. By way of the oblique course of the second guide slot, an adjustment movement in the direction of the second adjustment direction can be imposed on the guide section of the connecting element during adjustment of the guide element along the guide rail.

In principle, the second adjustment direction may be substantially perpendicular, in particular, exactly perpendicular to the first adjustment direction. In a state mounted as intended on a vehicle, for example, the second adjustment direction runs essentially along the vertical and thus along a vehicle vertical axis, while the second adjustment direction runs essentially along a horizontal in the direction of the vehicle exterior (pointing outward) and thus along a vehicle transverse axis

In one embodiment, the window regulator assembly comprises two guide elements displaceably mounted on the guide rail, each having a second guide slot on which a respective guide section of one of two connecting elements respectively connected to the window pane is held displaceably. The two guide elements can thus be arranged one behind the other and spaced from each other along an extension direction of the guide rail (possibly coinciding with the first adjustment direction) so that each guide element with the connecting element held displaceably thereon is assigned to another (lateral) region of the windowpane. For example, a first guide member may be associated with an upper portion of the windowpane, i.e., near a disc top edge, while a second guide member, also slidable on the guide rail, is associated with a lower portion of the windowpane, i.e., near a disc lower edge.

Although this is not mandatory, it can be provided that the window pane is predetermined by means of both guide elements in each case one adjustment movement along two different adjustment directions. In this way, an adjusting force for adjusting the window pane can be introduced upwards and downwards as well as outwards and inwards at several points via a plurality of connecting elements fixed on the window pane. In this way, the window pane to be closed can also be displaced outwards, for example, without executing a tilting or pivoting movement in order to assume the end position in which the window pane is completely closed and the window pane is flush with at least one adjoining body component.

Against this background it can also be provided that two first guide slots are provided for the two guide elements. In a further development, these two first guide slots are provided on one and the same guide rail. In one embodiment, the two guide slots are formed on different, opposite longitudinal sides of the guide rail. A guide slot for a guide element is thus formed here on one longitudinal side of the guide rail, while a further guide slot for the other guide element is formed on the other longitudinal side of the guide rail.

In an embodiment variant with two guide elements, a coupling element can be provided, via which the two guide elements are connected to one another. For example, the coupling element is pressure-resistant and / or designed as a coupling rod. For example, a drive element can be provided on the coupling element, by means of which an adjusting force generated by a drive unit of the window regulator assembly can be transmitted to the coupling element in order to displace the guide elements along the guide rail. By way of example, the pressure-strong coupling element achieves, for example, that a tensile or compressive force applied to the drive element leads to a displacement of the coupling element and thus to a synchronous displacement of the two guide elements connected therewith along the one Guide rail or along two guide rails on which the guide elements are slidably mounted leads.

For example, the drive element for the connection with a flexible traction means is set up and provided, which can be driven by the drive unit of the window regulator assembly for generating the adjusting force. For connection to the flexible traction means, for example, a driver fixed to the traction means and the drive element can be fixed to one another.

In one embodiment, the drive element and the two guide elements are arranged one behind the other on the coupling element. For example, the coupling element is elongate and extends in the intended mounted state of the window regulator assembly along a longitudinal direction of the guide rail, in which then follow (in relation to the intended installed in a vehicle state) upwardly facing direction of the drive element, the two further overhead guide elements ,

At least one guide element and / or the drive element can also be mounted rotatably on the coupling element. At least one guide element, if appropriate also both guide elements and / or the drive element can thus be rotatably held on the coupling element, for example to allow a compensating movement over the adjustment of an optionally curved window between the two end positions.

In one embodiment, the coupling element is slidably received in a guide channel of the guide rail. The coupling element can in this case form at least one support section, via which the coupling element is supported on an inner wall of the guide channel. In a further development, the coupling element forms at least two support sections, via which the coupling element is supported on different inner walls or at least on different areas of the same inner wall of the guide channel. A defined alignment of the coupling element within the guide rail can be ensured via the at least one or the at least two support sections of the coupling element.

In one embodiment variant, an attachment point for a diaphragm extending along a lateral edge of the window pane is provided on the connection element with the guide section guided twice in the first and second guide slots. Such an attachment point can be formed, for example, by a fastening opening in the connecting element into which a fastening element of the panel can be inserted or - in the intended mounted state of the window regulator assembly - is inserted.

The window regulator assembly may also comprise two guide rails each having at least one connecting element guided thereon. In this way, one guide rail can be associated with one of two lateral disk edges of the windowpane. For example, a (front) guide rail for guiding a front edge of the window and a rear guide rail for guiding a rear edge of the window pane is provided.

To simplify the assembly is provided in a variant that the guide rail, in particular with the guide element displaceably mounted thereon, the connecting element displaceably held on the first guide slot of the guide rail and the second guide slot of the guide element and the window pane connected to the connecting element is a prefabricated and (on intended function) forms a pre-testable mounting module, which is set up and provided for mounting to a door shell of a vehicle door. The prefabricated mounting module can thus be delivered here as a unit and mounted on a door shell without the above-mentioned components of the window regulator assembly would have to be mounted individually to the door shell. In one development, the assembly module can also comprise two guide rails and / or at least one motor drive for adjusting the window pane and / or a carrier component on which at least one guide rail and / or at least one motor drive is arranged.

For sealing in the region of a door sill in the window pane located in one end position, a sealing element is provided in one embodiment variant on the connecting element. This sealing element can be brought by the adjustment of the window along the two different adjustment directions in sealing contact with a portion of a door shell, in particular in the region of the door sill. Alternatively or additionally, an abutment portion for abutment with a door-side seal may be provided on the connecting element. Here, the connecting element forms an abutment portion, which is pressed sealingly against a body-mounted sealing element, while in the aforementioned case, a sealing element is provided on the connecting element, which is brought into sealing contact with a body-mounted components.

Alternatively or additionally, in a variant embodiment, a contact section is provided on the connecting element for acting on a spring strip mounted on the door sill. In this embodiment, for example, pushes the connecting element via a contact portion against the resiliently mounted on the door trim panel molding when the window is moved over the double gate guide in its final position. In the closed position of the window pane, the spring-mounted trim strip is pressed under the action of at least one spring element in the direction or even against the lower edge of the window pane in order to seal the window opening in the region of the door sill.

The provision of a spring-mounted decorative strip can hereby also be independent of the provision of a window regulator assembly according to the first aspect of advantage.

Accordingly, according to a second aspect of the proposed solution, which is however readily combinable with the first aspect, a vehicle door with an adjustable window pane of a window regulator assembly according to claim 21 is proposed.

In this case, the window pane is adjustable between a first end position and a second end position adjustment path, wherein the window pane is adjustable along two different adjustment directions for taking up the second end position in which the window pane closes a window opening. On a door sill of the vehicle door, a spring-mounted trim strip is provided, which is biased via at least one spring element in a first adjustment position and by the adjusted in the second end position window against a force applied by the at least one spring restoring force from the first adjustment position to a second adjustment position is relocated.

An adjustment of the trim strip in its second adjustment takes place in the proposed vehicle door consequently by the (fully) closed position engaging window. In this case, the window pane can be adjustable substantially vertically along a vehicle vertical axis and thus along a first adjustment direction and essentially perpendicularly thereto, along a second adjustment direction (relative to the vehicle interior), in order to assume the second end position. In this case, the adjustment of the trim strip in its second adjustment position (for example, down) is significantly caused by the adjustment of the window or an adjustment component of the window in the second adjustment. A window regulator assembly is thus set up and provided in such a vehicle door to displace the decorative strip into its second adjustment position by adjusting the window pane into its second end position, in which the window pane is closed. Under the effect of the at least one fault element, in the proposed solution according to the second aspect, such as e.g. be reached a sealing contact of the trim strip on a lower edge of the window pane.

The attached figures illustrate by way of example possible embodiments of the proposed solution.

The 21 shows a perspective side view of a (power) vehicle door T with the outer door skin removed, leaving one in a cavity of the vehicle door T received door module TM is apparent. The door module TM carries in particular components of a window regulator assembly for adjusting a window pane S , This windowpane S is between a first, lower and a second, upper end position on the vehicle door T adjustable, with the windowpane S in its upper end position, a window opening of the vehicle door T above a door sill TB completely closes.

That of the prior art according to the 21 known door module TM has a window regulator assembly for a double-stranded window regulator for adjusting the window pane S on. Here is the windowpane S Usually adjustable only along an adjustment upward from a lower end position in the upper end position. Due to the design of the window is in its upper end position and thus the closed position slightly inwardly set back relative to the window opening above and laterally bordering body parts of the vehicle door T in front. Especially in recent times, however, enjoy so-called flush-mounted window concepts of great popularity (also known as "flush glass" or "flush glazing")), in which the window S flush in its closed position at least with the upper and side body parts bordering the window opening.

To realize such a flush-mounted disk concept is a window regulator assembly F proposed, to the possible embodiments in the attached 1A to 20 are illustrated. Here is the windowpane S adjustable to take their upper end position in at least two different adjustment directions. On the one hand, the window pane to be closed becomes S initially - so far in accordance with known from practice, conventional window regulators - adjusted upwards. However, to assume the fully closed position, the window pane is given an adjustment path in which the window pane S additionally undergoes an adjusting movement substantially translationally to the outside, so that the window pane S flush with the window opening bordering body parts of the vehicle door T concludes. During adjustment in a medium adjustment range between the upper and lower end positions is the window pane S Accordingly, slightly set back relative to the body parts. When the upper end position is reached, the window pane is then (also) adjusted outwards, so that in the fully closed position of the window pane S the window glass S flush with the body parts.

In the 1A to 3B is in different views an embodiment of a window regulator assembly F shown in the proposed solution, in which the window pane S to take the upper end position an adjustment in at least two different adjustment directions + z and + y is predetermined.

The power window assembly F has, among other things, a longitudinally extending guide rail 1 on. The guide rail 1 extends substantially along an adjustment axis along which the window pane S in its upper end position (in the adjustment direction + z ) and (opposite this in the adjustment direction -z ) in the direction their lower end position can be lowered. The guide rail 1 extends in the intended mounted state of the window regulator assembly F at least with an upper portion laterally at the window opening and thus eg after installation in a vehicle door T above the door sill TB ,

The guide rail 1 defines a guide channel 10 in which two via a coupling element in the form of a coupling rod 5 interconnected upper and lower guide elements 3a and 3b slidably guided. The guide elements 3a and 3b are here at one within the guide channel 10 provided guide rail 1A the guide rail 1 kept displaceable. With each of the guide elements 3a and 3b is a connecting element 2a or 2 B connected to the window pane S each is attached. The along the guide rail 1 spaced fasteners 2a and 2 B are on the one hand an upper and on the other hand, a lower portion of a side window edge of the window S assigned.

About one at a lower end of the coupling rod 5 provided drive element 4 can be an adjusting force in the coupling rod 5 be initiated to the guide elements 3a and 3b in the guide channel 10 on the guide rail 1 to move along. Each connecting element 2a . 2 B engages over a guide section in the form of a guide pin 21 both in a guidance setting 11 or 12 the guide rail 1 as well as in an oblique to the adjustment + z extending second guide slot 31 on a guide body 30 of the respective associated guide element 3a or 3b on. The one with the windowpane S connected fasteners 2a and 2 B This is about (first) leadership 11 and 12 on the guide rail 1 as well as the further (second) guidance setting 31 of the respective associated guide element 3a or 3b - hereinafter referred to as guide element backdrop - an adjustment given, which leads to an adjustment of the window to be closed S along the two, here essentially mutually perpendicular adjustment directions + z and + y leads.

As in particular from the synopsis of 1A to 3B with the others 4A to 8B can be seen, has the guide rail shown here 1 for the one, upper connecting element 2a an upper guide slot 11 on a rear (in side view on an outside of the windowpane S right) longitudinal side of the guide rail 1 on, while a lower guide 12 for the other, lower connecting element 2 B on the opposite, front (left) longitudinal side of the guide rail 1 is trained. Both leadership scenes 11 and 12 the guide rail 1 each have two gate sections 110 . 111 respectively 120 . 121 on. The one, first set of scenes 110 . 120 in this case runs essentially along the longitudinal extension direction of the guide rail 1 and thus gives the respective connecting element 2a . 2 B an adjustment along the first adjustment + z upwards in the direction of the upper end position before (respectively in the adjustment direction -z in the direction of the lower end position when lowering the window pane S ). In the area of an upper end of each of the leadership scenes 11 . 12 goes the respective first gate section 110 or 120 in a second gate section 111 or 121 over. This second set of scenes 111 . 121 extends substantially perpendicular to the first gate section 110 or 120 in + y Direction, so that the respective guidance setting 11 or 12 has at its respective upper end a ┌-shaped course. It should be noted that under a ┌-shaped course, the course of a rotated by 180 ° " L "And thus an L-shaped course is understood.

Will that be with the windowpane S connected guide element 2a or 2 B along the respective guide slot 11 or 12 the guide rail 1 adjusted, guides the guide element 2a . 2 B consequently, when lifting the windowpane S an adjustment in the two different adjustment directions + z and + y out. In a first phase of the adjustment movement, the connecting element 2a . 2 B initially exclusively along the adjustment + z at the first scenes sections 110 and 120 moved along. To reach the final upper end position, the connecting element 2a . 2 B then over the second set of scenes 111 or 121 transverse thereto along the adjustment + y adjusted. This adjustment direction + y runs in the intended installed state of the window regulator assembly F substantially horizontally along a vehicle transverse axis and facing outward. The window glass F is thus pressed to reach its upper end position to the outside to complete flush with the window opening bordering body panels.

To the respective connecting element 2a or 2 B along the second backdrop section 111 or 121 to postpone, is the further slotted guide of the guide pins 21 of the respective connecting element 2a . 2 B on the guide element 3a or 3b intended. That's the way leaders are 11 . 12 the guide rail 1 and the guide element backdrops 31 the two guide elements 3a and 3b so matched to each other that when the guide pin 21 at the in the first adjustment + z lying end of the respective first gate section 110 or 120 the guide rail 1 is applied, a further displacement of the guide element 3a or 3b along the guide rail 1 in this first adjustment + z to a shift of the guide pin 21 of the connecting element 2a or 2 B along the guide element backdrop 21 of the guide element 3a or 3b leads. This is on an enlarged scale for the upper connecting element 2a and the upper guide element 3a in the 4A to 4C illustrated. A guide pin 21 a connecting element 2a . 2 B For example, it can also float on one or both guiding frames 11 / 12 and 31 be stored.

The complete windowpane S is thus substantially along the two mutually perpendicular adjustment directions + z and + y translationally adjusted. Alternatively, it is of course also conceivable that - for example, over different lengths of the guide slots 11 and 12 - the windowpane S via the double gate-guided connecting elements 2a and 2 B a pivoting movement is forced to take the upper end position.

For the uniform adjustment of the connecting elements 2a . 2 B on which the windowpane S is fixed in the region of a lateral edge of the window, which is particularly in the perspective view of 5 illustrated coupling rod 5 intended. The pressure-resistant coupling rod 5 is in the guide channel 10 the guide rail 1 housed and has at its front, in + x Direction lying end of the upper guide element 3a and at her lower, in -z Direction lying end of the drive element 4 on. In a central area between the two ends is the lower guide element 3b on the coupling rod 5 intended. The coupling rod 5 forms with the provided thereon upper and lower guide elements 3a . 3b and the drive element provided for this purpose 4 a leadership module FM on the guide rail 1 is slidably mounted. About this leadership module FM is in interaction with the leadership 11 and 12 the guide rail 1 the adjustment along the two different adjustment directions + z . + y for taking the upper end position of the window pane S specified.

Notwithstanding the illustrated embodiment with a slightly curved guide rail 1 and a slightly curved windowpane S can the guide elements 3a and 3b and / or the drive element 4 on the coupling rod 5 be rotatably mounted to a compensating movement for the adjustment of the window S over the entire adjustment between the first, lower and second, upper end position to allow.

To initiate an adjusting force in the guide module FM has the drive element 4 a connection section 402 on. At this connection section 402 For example, the connection can be made with a flexible traction means, in particular a cable. Such a flexible traction means is presently drivable by an electric motor drive unit to the drive element 4 and thus on the coupling rod 5 the two guide elements 3a and 3b along the guide rail 1 to move. For connection to the flexible traction means, for example, a fixed to the traction means driver and the drive element 4 be fixed to each other.

The connecting section 402 is present at a substantially cuboid body 40 of the drive element 4 educated. On this body 40 is also a sliding guide 400 formed over which the drive element 4 positively on the guide rail 1A the guide rail 1 is held. For the connection with the coupling rod 5 forms the body 40 of the drive element 4 a fixing section 401 , for example in the form of a fastening pin (see also 14A) ,
