Publication number: 20240110423Abstract: A window lifter assembly for an adjustable windowpane of a motor vehicle has a guide rail and a driver with a connecting leg and two driver legs connected by the connecting leg. Between the two driver legs is a receptacle gap for the adjustable windowpane. The two driver legs include a first driver leg configured to mount and guide the driver on the guide rail and a second driver leg being elastically displaceable in relation to the first driver leg and has a latching element which protrudes into the receptacle gap. When inserting the adjustable windowpane into the receptacle gap of the driver the latching element engages in a pane-proximal latching opening of the windowpane. The driver further has a resting contour on which the second driver leg is supported as a result of a tensile force acting on the latching element by way of the adjustable windowpane in a closing direction or a closed position of the adjustable windowpane.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 4, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Inventors: Jörg Müller, Bert Almes, Udo Taubmann
