  • Holding element for a glass pane in the frame of a motor vehicle
    Patent number: 5421130
    Abstract: A holding element serves for the vertical fixation of a pane of glass to be glued in the frame of a motor vehicle. It consists of a holding part made of a hard elastic plastic inserted in a lower cross frame and a number of elastically insertable supporting steps connected to it with supporting faces arranged at equal distances one above the other to support the lower edge of the pane. In order to achieve the finest possible gradation of the individual supporting steps and simultaneously a no-play mounting, the supporting steps are designed to engage one another in a lamellar manner and are connected in each case to the holding part on both sides of the support area via elastically flexible cross members on their lamellar ends.

  • Holding device for vertically positioning a window pane
    Patent number: 5214824
    Abstract: A holding device for vertically positioning a windshield or rear window so that it can be bonded into the frame of a motor vehicle. It has a holding part which can be inserted into a lower transverse part of the frame and a series of support steps transversely spaced from one another in a direction parallel to the transverse part of the frame and pivotally connected to the holding part so that they can individually and elastically pivot out to a holding position or be pressed into an out-of-the way position. The steps each have a support face, the faces being arranged in step wise fashion at an equal vertical distance from each other.
