Abstract

A window control arrangement for operating two or more windows (1a, 1b, 1c, 1d) in a vehicle includes one or several manually operated window control switches (2a, 2b, 2c, 2d) set as default to be associated with a specific one of the windows, a window actuator (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) associated with each of the windows and configured for raising or lowering a corresponding window, a control unit (3) connected to the window actuators for controlling raising or lowering of the windows, and an input device (5) connected to the control unit, the input device having a multitude of input modes of which at least one mode is configured for receiving input concerning operation of the windows. The arrangement is configured for activating the input device to be in the at least one mode configured for receiving input concerning operation of the windows as a result of a detected intention from a driver or passenger in the vehicle to activate a window actuator. The invention also relates to a method controlling operation of two or more windows.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to devices and methods for operating vehicle windows, eg for raising or lowering the windows. The invention can be used in various vehicles such as cars, buses or heavy transport vehicles. Background technique [0002] In the automotive industry, simple, fast and cost-effective methods and equipment are often required for the assembly of vehicles and vehicle parts. In addition, the ever-increasing demand for more functions and enhanced comfort in vehicles leads to the problem of fitting all new functions into the vehicle and the control levers used for these functions. For example, with respect to equipment for operating windows, a plurality of control switches are usually arranged near the driver so that raising or lowering of all operable windows in the vehicle can be controlled from the driver's seat. [0003] It is generally considered that the place suitable for setting the control switch is the door. However, due ...
