Glass Attachment for Movable Vehicle Window

摘要

The present invention concerns a glass attachment and method of assembly for a movable vehicle window, particularly in a vehicle door. A pair of glass clips are attached to a window glass, and a pair of carriers are mounted and retained in a door by cable sets. A snap-in installation is performed by sliding camming guide shoulders on the carriers into channels formed by cam engagement flanges on the glass clips. As the camming action takes place, the carriers are lifted into use positions and catches on the glass clips engage catch openings on the carriers to secure the components together. Grooves in the carriers direct the cable sets, the ends of which are retained in the carriers by ferrules and cable take-up springs.
