DUAL DRUM AND RAIL WINDOW REGULATOR DRIVE SYSTEM

摘要

A window regulator system has a first rail (20) and a second rail (22). The second rail is spaced in a parallel relation with the first rail. A first slider assembly (30) slidably engages the first rail (32) and a second slider assembly slidably engages the second rail. A first cable (W1) engages the first slider (30) and has opposi te ends thereof wound about a first drum assembly (76). The first cable (W1) is guidedly mounted on the first rail (20). A second cable (W2) engages the second slider and has opposite ends thereof wound about a second drum assembly (78). The second cable is guidedl y mounted on the second rail (22). A drive system (24) simultaneously rotates the first and second drum assemblies. Rotating t he first and second drum assemblies effects parallel movement of the first and second sliders. When a window is mounted on the sliders, the window regulator system effects opening and closing thereof.
