Window regulator and stopper member attaching method
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 moves together with the window glass, a wire that is routed on one side of the guide rail and pulls the carrier plate, and a stopper member that is attached on the one side of the guide rail so as to overlap a routing position of the wire and restricts movement of the carrier plate in the ascending/descending direction. The stopper member includes an attachment portion to attach the stopper member to the guide rail from the one side, and a bypass portion that bypasses the routing position of the wire on a side opposite to the guide rail.
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 moves together with the window glass;
a wire to pull the carrier plate;
a rotating drum to which one end of the wire is connected;
a drum housing arranged at a lower end of the guide rail to house the rotating drum; and
a stopper member that is formed separately from the drum housing and is arranged above the drum housing,
wherein the wire is routed on a front surface in the vehicle width direction of the guide rail,
wherein the stopper member is attached directly on the front surface of the guide rail so as to overlap a routing position of the wire and restricts movement of the carrier plate in the ascending/descending direction, and
wherein the stopper member comprises an attachment portion to attach the stopper member to the guide rail directly from the front surface in a state in which the drum housing is attached to the guide rail and the wire is routed on the guide rail, and a bypass portion that bypasses the routing position of the wire on the front surface.
2 . The window regulator according to claim 1 , wherein the stopper member comprises a plurality of the attachment portions, and wherein the plurality of the attachment portions are arranged so as to sandwich the routing position of the wire in a direction orthogonal to the ascending/descending direction.
3 . The window regulator according to claim 1 , wherein the attachment portion attaches the stopper member to the guide rail in a snap-fit manner.
4 . The window regulator according to claim 1 , wherein the stopper member further comprises a shock absorbing member mounting portion to mount a shock absorbing member that absorbs shock when the carrier plate comes into contact with the stopper member.
5 . A stopper member attaching method for attaching the stopper member to the guide rail in the window regulator according to claim 1 , the method comprising:
attaching the stopper member to the guide rail from the front surface of the guide rail by means of the attachment portion.
6 . The window regulator according to claim 1 , wherein the stopper member comprises a stopper surface that restricts movement of the carrier plate in the ascending/descending direction, and wherein the stopper surface is formed to surround the routing position of the wire.
7 . 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 moves together with the window glass;
a wire that is routed on a front side of the guide rail and pulls the carrier plate;
a rotating drum to which one end of the wire is connected;
a drum housing arranged at a lower end of the guide rail to house the rotating drum; and
a stopper member that is arranged above the drum housing and is attached on the front side of the guide rail so as to overlap a routing position of the wire and restricts movement of the carrier plate in the ascending/descending direction,
wherein the stopper member comprises an attachment portion to attach the stopper member to the guide rail from the front side in a state in which the drum housing is attached to the guide rail and the wire is routed on the guide rail, and a bypass portion that bypasses the routing position of the wire on the front side,
wherein the stopper member further comprises a shock absorbing member mounting portion to mount a shock absorbing member that absorbs shock when the carrier plate comes into contact with the stopper member, and
wherein the stopper member comprises two shock absorbing member mounting portions, and wherein the two shock absorbing member mounting portions are formed one above and the other below in the ascending/descending direction.
