Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a vehicle window glass holder that is connected to a vertical movement mechanism for a vehicle window glass and is used to hold the window glass.

For example, as shown in FIG. 1, a conventionally known mechanism for vertically operating an automobile window glass includes a glass holder c having a U-groove b for holding the lower edge of an automobile window glass a, and a glass holder c inserted into an outer tube d. Moreover, it has a flexible wire f for power transmission that moves in the axial direction within the outer tube by the rotation of the handle e, and a fixing member g is attached to the flexible wire f as shown in FIG. Further, this fixing member g was fastened to the glass holding member c by means of a mounting screw h.

Therefore, a fixing member g and a mounting screw h are required to fix the glass holding odor c to the flexible wire f, which requires a large number of components and a screw tightening process to tighten the fixing member g. Ta. The present invention has been made in view of the above, and is a window glass elevator that uses a flexible shaft to raise and lower the window glass of an automobile. It consists of two parts: a bracket that is fixed to a flexible shaft and a holder that holds the window glass, and the bracket and holder are connected using an iron structure that requires special fixing hardware, fixing tools, etc. To provide a window glass retaining odor for a vehicle which can improve the assembly workability of the window glass retaining odor by eliminating the need for combining and assembling the two simply by a mere competing operation.

The present invention will be explained in detail below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

The window glass holding odor 1 consists of two members: a holder 2 and a bracket 3, and the holder 2 is a plate-shaped main body 4 with a substantially U-shaped groove on its side for holding the window glass in its mouth on the upper side of the main body 4. It has a holding part 5, and a pair of left and right elastic pieces 6 which are biased downward are formed on the bottom surface of both ends of the glass holding part 5.

Further, on both side edges of the main body 4, an elastic hook 7 is formed approximately in the middle of the edge, and a protrusion 8 is formed at the lower part of the turned edge to protrude laterally. It is something that exists. The above is the configuration of the holder 2, and this holder 2 is molded from synthetic resin. Next, the structure of the bracket 3 will be described. The bracket 3 includes a flexible shaft fixing part 9 which is made of a metal plate and is curved into a cylindrical shape, and a flexible shaft fixing part 9 that extends outward from the flexible shaft fixing part 9 in the radial direction. A pair of neck portions 10 and I0' overlapped with each other, a back surface portion 11 formed by bending in opposite directions on both sides from the tips of these neck portions 10 and 10′, and a side surface portion formed by bending at a right angle from this back surface portion 11. 12. The holder iron joint part 14 is formed by bending the front part 13 which is bent inward from the side part 12 at right angles. , a threaded protrusion 16 is formed on which the thread of the flexible shaft 15 is fitted, and notches 17 are formed on both upper and lower edges of the neck portion 10, and notches 17 are formed on the upper and lower sides of the other neck portion 10'. A claw piece 18 that fits into the notch 17 is formed on the edge.

Furthermore, the back surface portion 11 has a bead 19 extending in the vertical direction.
However, the side surface portion 12 is also formed with an elastic claw piece 20 that extends inward and diagonally downward. The bead 19 is provided to reduce the insertion resistance of the holder 2, improve the steel properties of the bracket 3, and absorb dimensional variations during manufacturing of the holder and bracket. The above is holder 2
and bracket 3, but next, its holder 2
The connection between the bracket 3 and the bracket 3 and the connection between the bracket 3 and the flexible rattan 15 will be described.

First, to connect the bracket 3 and the flexible shaft 15, after opening both capitals 10 and 10' and widening the inner diameter of the cylindrical flexible shaft fixing part 9, the flexible shaft 15 is inserted into the flexible shaft fixing part 9. After that, after positioning the threaded part of the flexible shaft 15 within the convex strip 16, both neck parts 10 and 10' are brought into close contact, and then the claw piece 18 formed on one neck part 10' is inserted into the other. Bend the neck part 101 into the notch 17 formed and connect both neck parts 10 and 1.
At the same time, the flexible shaft 15 in the flexible shaft fixing part 9 is tightened and fixed within the fixing part 9. Thus, in order to attach the holder 2 to the bracket 3 to which the flexible shaft 15 is fixed, the holder 2 is
When the plate-shaped main body part 4 is inserted into the holder drum part 14 of the bracket 3, the elastic piece 6 of the holder is brought into contact with the edge of the holder group part 14 of the bracket 3. When the holder 2 is further pushed in against the elastic force of the elastic piece 6, the tip of the elastic claw piece 16 of the bracket 3 is locked to the stepped part of the protrusion 8 of the holder 2, and the elastic force of the elastic piece 6 is As a result, the holder 2 is integrally attached to the bracket 3 without play, thereby forming the window glass holding odor 1.
The window glass holding odor 1 thus formed can be removed by holding the lower edge of the window glass 21 in the glass holding portion 5.
By operating the handle shown in the conventional example, the flexible shaft 15 is slid in the direction of the ball, and the window glass 21 is moved up and down as the window glass holder 1 is operated.

As described above, since the window glass holder 1 according to the present invention is composed of two members, the holder 2 and the bracket 3, the number of component parts is small, and a window glass holding odor is provided at a low cost. can.

In addition, when connecting the holder 2 and the bracket 3 and the bracket 3 and the flexible shaft, no connecting parts are used; the holder 2 and the bracket 3 are simply tied together; Since the shaft can be fixed by simply bending the claw pieces, assembly work is easy and labor costs can be reduced.
