Abstract

Claims (33)

1. A fastening device for a vehicle window lifter having a guide rail for slidable guidance of a carrier for a window glass, the fastening device comprising:

a pivot piece having a base body and two pivot pins formed on said base body;

said pivot pins lying axially opposite one another along a rotational axis and said pivot pins each having two respective parallel planar surfaces;

at least one of said pivot pins having an axial notch formed therein; and

a connecting portion associated with said guide rail, said connecting portion having pivot grooves formed therein, said pivot grooves being mutually aligned, and said pivot grooves each being configured for receiving and pivotably mounting a respective one of said pivot pins of said pivot piece.

2. The fastening device according to claim 1 , wherein said axial notch extends between said two respective parallel planar surfaces.

3. The fastening device according to claim 2 , wherein said pivot pins of said pivot piece each have two mutually opposite pivot sides acting as pivot faces.

4. The fastening device according to claim 3 , wherein said pivot sides are rounded or arcuate.

5. The fastening device according to claim 1 , wherein said pivot grooves each have respective groove legs, and a stop edge is formed on at least one of said pivot pins for supporting said pivot piece on at least one of said groove legs.

6. The fastening device according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of said pivot pins of said pivot piece is formed as an eccentric.

7. The fastening device according to claim 1 , wherein:

said pivot pins each have a pin length and a pin width; and at least one of:

said notch of at least one of said pivot pins has an axial notch depth amounting to at least 50% of said axial pin length of a respective one of said pivot pins, or

said notch of at least one of said pivot pins has a notch width amounting to at least 15% of said pin width of a respective one of said pivot pins.

8. The fastening device according to claim 1 , wherein:

said pivot pins each have a pin length and a pin width; and at least one of:

said notch of at least one of said pivot pins has an axial notch depth amounting to 60% to 80% of said axial pin length of a respective one of said pivot pins, or

said notch of at least one of said pivot pins has a notch width amounting to 20% to 40% of said pin width of a respective one of said pivot pins.

9. The fastening device according to claim 1 , wherein:

said pivot pins each have a pin length and a pin width; and at least one of:

said notch of at least one of said pivot pins has an axial notch depth amounting to 65±5% of said axial pin length of a respective one of said pivot pins, or

said notch of at least one of said pivot pins has a notch width amounting to 25±5% of said pin width of a respective one of said pivot pins.

10. The fastening device according to claim 1 , wherein each of said pivot pins has a free end side with a pin portion having a reduced cross-sectional area.

11. The fastening device according to claim 10 , wherein said pin portion has a stepped shape.

12. The fastening device according to claim 1 , which further comprises a fastening bolt, said base body of said pivot piece having an internally threaded opening for receiving said fastening bolt.

13. The fastening device according to claim 1 , wherein said pivot piece is made of plastic.

14. A vehicle window lifter for adjusting a window glass of a motor vehicle, the vehicle window lifter comprising:

at least one guide rail; and

a fastening device, including:

a pivot piece having a base body and two pivot pins formed on said base body;

said pivot pins lying axially opposite one another along a rotational axis and said pivot pins each having two respective parallel planar surfaces;

at least one of said pivot pins having an axial notch formed therein; and

a connecting portion associated with said guide rail, said connecting portion having pivot grooves formed therein, said pivot grooves being mutually aligned, and said pivot grooves each being configured for receiving and pivotably mounting a respective one of said pivot pins of said pivot piece.
