Window regulator
A window regulator includes a guide rail provided along an ascending/descending direction of a window glass of a vehicle, a carrier plate that slides on the guide rail and travels together with the window glass, cables that pull the carrier plate, a drum on which the cables are partially wound, a motor rotationally driving the drum, and a drum housing provided at a lower end of the guide rail and having a housing space for housing the drum, wherein the drum housing has a wall section provided on an outer side of the drum that is housed in the housing space, and a contact surface of the drum housing coming into contact with the carrier plate is provided at a lower position than an upper end of the wall section in a vertical direction that the window glass travels when the window glass is fully opened.
1. A window regulator, comprising:
a guide rail provided along an ascending/descending direction of a window glass of a vehicle;
a carrier plate that slides on the guide rail and travels together with the window glass;
cables that pull the carrier plate;
a drum on which the cables are partially wound;
a motor rotationally driving the drum; and
a drum housing provided at a lower end of the guide rail and comprising a housing space for housing the drum,
wherein the drum housing comprises a wall section covering an outer periphery of the drum that is housed in the housing space, and a contact surface of the drum housing coming into contact with the carrier plate is provided at a lower position than an upper end of inner surface of the wall section in a vertical direction that the window glass travels when the window glass is fully opened.
2. The window regulator according to claim 1 , wherein a fitting hole for fitting the lower end of the guide rail and a descending-side lead-out groove for the cable to extend out are formed on the drum housing, and at least a portion of the guide rail fitted to the fitting hole is located over the descending-side lead-out groove when the drum housing is viewed in a width direction of the vehicle.
3. A window regulator, comprising:
a guide rail provided along an ascending/descending direction of a window glass of a vehicle;
a carrier plate that slides on the guide rail and travels together with the window glass;
cables that pull the carrier plate;
a drum on which the cables are partially wound;
a motor rotationally driving the drum; and
a drum housing provided at a lower end of the guide rail and comprising a housing space for housing the drum,
wherein the drum housing comprises a wall section covering an outer periphery of the drum that is housed in the housing space, the wall section is provided to rise up in a rotational axis direction of the drum from a contacting surface at which the drum housed in the housing space is in contact with the drum housing in the rotational axis direction of the drum, and a contact surface of the drum housing coming into contact with the carrier plate is provided at a lower position than an upper end of inner surface of the wall section in a vertical direction that the window glass travels when the window glass is fully opened.
4. A window regulator, comprising:
a guide rail provided along an ascending/descending direction of a window glass of a vehicle;
a carrier plate that slides on the guide rail and travels together with the window glass;
a drum that rotates; and
a drum housing provided at a lower end of the guide rail and comprising a housing space for housing the drum,
wherein the drum housing comprises a wall section covering an outer periphery of the drum that is housed in the housing space, the wall section is provided to rise up in a rotational axis direction of the drum from a contacting surface at which the drum housed in the housing space is in contact with the drum housing in the rotational axis direction of the drum, and a contact surface of the drum housing coming into contact with the carrier plate is provided at a lower position than an upper end of inner surface of the wall section in a vertical direction that the window glass travels when the window glass is fully opened.
5. The window regulator according to claim 1 , wherein the carrier plate comprises a facing surface that faces an outer surface of the wall section of the drum housing when the window glass is fully opened, and the facing surface has a shape along the outer surface of the wall section.
6. The window regulator according to claim 2 , wherein the carrier plate comprises a facing surface that faces an outer surface of the wall section of the drum housing when the window glass is fully opened, and the facing surface has a shape along the outer surface of the wall section.
7. The window regulator according to claim 1 , wherein the wall section has a plate shape having a predetermined thickness in a radial direction of the drum.
8. The window regulator according to claim 2 , wherein the wall section has a plate shape having a predetermined thickness in a radial direction of the drum.
9. The window regulator according to claim 5 , wherein the wall section has a plate shape having a predetermined thickness in a radial direction of the drum.
