Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the components of an automobile window regulator assembly, and particularly relates to an automobile window regulator bracket. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing competitiveness in the automotive industry and the diversification of usage scenarios, the performance requirements for various automotive components are getting higher and higher. Also, with the increasing degree of electrification, the vehicle body weight is getting heavier, and it is imperative to reduce the weight of vehicle body components. As a window regulator assembly that can drive the window glass to close freely, its performance stability, comfort, and weight have attracted much attention from users.

[0003] In the traditional window regulator assembly, the most critical bracket is used to transmit the power of the driving mechanism, connect and support the glass to achieve up and down movement. It is an important connecting component for transmitting the driving force to the glass to achieve movement. Its structure (see Figure 3 ) has the following common deficiencies:

[0004] ① During operation, the cables (8, 9) have no Y-direction limit structure B, and relative sliding friction with the bracket is likely to generate abnormal noise, making users feel uncomfortable.

[0005] ② The structure design of the joint groove 4 is unreasonable, and it is easy to interfere with the upper and lower joint springs (10, 11) during combination, resulting in difficulties in assembling the joint springs.

[0006] ③ To ensure that the upper and lower drive cables (8, 9) of the bracket are in a straight line, the bracket must be made long enough, occupying the vehicle interior space and increasing the material cost.

[0007] ④ The window regulator assembly is arranged in the wet area of the vehicle body. Due to the design defect of the drainage structure of the bracket, rainwater flows from the glass into the window regulator motor and the joint spring along the bracket, accelerating the corrosion of each component of the mechanism and resulting in the failure of the window regulator function. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The utility model provides an automobile window regulator bracket to solve the problems of abnormal noise during operation, difficult assembly of joint springs, large volume, and defective drainage structure existing currently.

[0009] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is to set an upper cable Y-direction limit structure at the place where the upper cable passes through the bracket body and a lower cable Y-direction limit structure at the place where the lower cable passes through. The upper joint spring placement groove and the lower joint spring placement groove are arranged side by side on the bracket body. At the same time, a steel wire rope guiding groove is added to keep the upper cable and the lower cable in a straight line, and a waterproof baffle structure is set at the joint of the bracket and the glass.

[0010] The upper cable Y-direction limit structure adopts a hook structure.

[0011] The Y-direction limiting structure of the lower cable adopts a hook structure.

[0012] The advantages of the present utility model are novel structure, eliminating the abnormal noise generated when the glass moves up and down due to the Y-direction friction of the cable against the main body of the bracket, improving the comfort and durability of the product; the optimization of the joint groove structure avoids the situation that the two springs interfere with each other and are difficult to install when assembling the joint spring in the old-state bracket, reducing the assembly man-hours, reducing the weight and cost of the window regulator assembly, and reserving more space for the vehicle body; the addition of the waterproof structure changes the rainwater flow direction, reducing the functional failure problem caused by the premature corrosion of the window regulator parts due to rainwater, and improving the durability of the window regulator.

[0017] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model, the following will briefly introduce the drawings to be used in the description of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the following drawings are only some embodiments of the present utility model. For those of ordinary skill in the art, without creative efforts, other drawings can also be obtained according to the content of the embodiments of the present utility model and these drawings.

[0018] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 shown, an upper cable Y-direction limiting structure 1 is arranged at the place where the upper cable passes on the bracket body 5, and a lower cable Y-direction limiting structure 2 is arranged at the place where the lower cable passes. The upper joint spring placement groove 3 and the lower joint spring placement groove 4 are arranged side by side on the bracket body 5. At the same time, a steel wire rope guiding groove 6 is added to keep the upper cable 8 and the lower cable 9 in the same straight line. A waterproof baffle structure 7 is arranged at the place where the bracket cooperates with the glass.

[0019] The upper cable Y-direction limiting structure 1 adopts a hook structure.

[0020] The lower cable Y-direction limiting structure 2 adopts a hook structure.

[0021] Working principle:

[0022] ① The upper cable Y-direction limiting structure 1 and the lower cable Y-direction limiting structure 2 are added, and the Y-direction movement of the cable is restricted when the bracket moves up and down, preventing abnormal noise and wear caused by friction with the bracket.

[0023] ② The upper joint spring placement groove 3 and the lower joint spring placement groove 4 are designed as two independent side-by-side joint grooves. At the same time, the steel wire rope guide groove 6 is added to keep the upper cable 8 and the lower cable 9 in a straight line, eliminating the interference problem during the assembly of the joint spring, shortening the length of the entire bracket, and reducing the weight and material cost of the bracket.

[0024] ③ A waterproof baffle structure 7 is designed at the mating part A between the bracket and the glass, changing the flow direction of the rainwater flowing down along the glass, and avoiding the problem of functional failure caused by the corrosion of the components of the window lifter assembly by rainwater.

[0025] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the technical concept of the present invention, any person skilled in the art can make equivalent substitutions or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present invention. These simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
