  • Patent number: 8127495
    Abstract: A window lift system, especially for the side window of a motor vehicle, includes (i) a pulling device and (ii) a catch for a window pane, which can be moved up and down using the pulling device. The catch has a first fastening point for an upward pulling end of the pulling device and a second fastening point for a downward pulling end of the pulling device, which point is horizontally off-set from the first fastening point in the window pane plane when the window pane is fitted. The window lift system also includes (iii) an arrangement positioning and fixating the catch in terms of at least three degrees of freedom so that the catch can be maintained in a position that is defined in terms of the degrees of freedom even when the window pane is not yet fitted.

  • Publication number: 20110292619
    Abstract: An electronic component having electrically conductive contacts and a printed circuit board enclosed by a sheathing made from a first plastic, and a method for manufacturing the electronic component. Such electronic components are used in oil pans of a transmission. The electrically conductive contacts are enclosed by a frame made from a second plastic. The first plastic is a duroplastic, and the second one is a thermoplastic. The thermoplastic does not represent a barrier to transmission oil. It is used for shaping the duroplastic, prepositioning the electrically conductive contacts, and preventing mechanical reworking of the duroplastic. No projections such as tabs or flash layers are created.

  • Publication number: 20110088325
    Abstract: The invention relates to a motor vehicle door comprising a window pane that is movable therein and at least one window-lifting rail for guiding the window pane. A module support receiving elements such as loudspeakers or similar is disposed in the interior space of said motor vehicle door. Said module carrier and/or window-lifting rail is/are provided with at least one seat so as to retain the window-lifting rail in a non-positive manner within the module support.

  • Patent number: 7726074
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a window-winding arrangement (1) as well as a motor vehicle door containing this window-winding arrangement. The window-winding arrangement contains a drive means (5) as well as a guide means for the drive and for guiding a pane (2) belonging to the window-winding arrangement. The drive means and guide means is designed in a manner such that the drive force for movement is applied onto the pane such that this (4.1; 4.2) independently of its movement direction is always pressed against a certain guide edge (6c) of the guide means. With this it is rendered possible on manufacture of the window-winding arrangement to envisage greater tolerances as well as to do away with the costintensive installation of additional guide rails in the door inner space. Furthermore one achieves a reduction in friction as well as a reduction in weight.
