Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Mitnehmer zur Führung einer Fensterscheibe entlang einer Führungsschiene einer Fensterheberbaugruppe.The invention relates to a driver for guiding a window pane along a guide rail of a window regulator assembly.

Ein derartiger Mitnehmer ist aus der DE 10 2005 004 000 A1 bekannt und ermöglicht eine vereinfachte nachträgliche Justage einer Fensterscheibe in den Mitnehmern einer Fensterhebevorrichtung, indem die Klemmung der Fensterscheibe ohne Zugriff auf eine beim Einspannen der Fensterscheibe in den Mitnehmer eingesetzte Schraube ermöglicht wird. Der Mitnehmer besteht aus einem Mitnehmergrundkörper und einer mit dem Mitnehmergrundkörper verbundenen flachen Aufnahmegabel mit zwei Aufnahmeschenkeln und einer Schraube zum Zusammenziehen der Aufnahmeschenkel zum Einspannen der Fensterscheibe. Ein Aufnahmeschenkel weist in der Nähe der Achse der Schraube eine Anzahl von Durchbrüchen auf, durch die sich ein von der Außenseite des Aufnahmeschenkels betätigbares Druckstück mit prismatischen Vorsprüngen erstreckt und in einer zur Achse der Schraube parallelen Richtung verschiebbar ist.Such a driver is from the DE 10 2005 004 000 A1 known and enables a simplified subsequent adjustment of a window pane in the drivers of a window lifting device by enabling the window pane to be clamped without access to a screw inserted into the driver when the window pane is clamped. The driver consists of a driver base body and a flat receiving fork connected to the driver base body with two receiving legs and a screw for pulling the receiving legs together to clamp the window pane. A receiving leg has a number of openings near the axis of the screw through which a pressure piece with prismatic projections that can be actuated from the outside of the receiving leg extends and is displaceable in a direction parallel to the axis of the screw.

Um die Fensterscheibe nach der Montage ohne Zugriff auf die Schraube neu justieren zu können, ist an dem vom Mitnehmergrundkörper abgewandten Aufnahmeschenkel eine Gewindehülse mit einer Durchgangsbohrung und einem darin ausgebildeten Innengewinde vorgesehen, in das die Schraube zum Verspannen der Aufnahmeschenkel eingeschraubt wird. Die Gewindehülse weist ein Außengewinde auf, das in ein Innengewinde einer mit einer Rändelung versehenen, an der Außenseite des Druckstücks anliegenden Gewindemutter eingeschraubt wird. Zur Nachjustierung der Fensterscheibe wird die Gewindemutter zum Lockern der kraftschlüssigen Verbindung zwischen der Fensterscheibe und dem Mitnehmer gedreht, so dass sich das an der Fensterscheibe anliegende Druckstück von der Fensterscheibe weg bewegt. Dadurch wird die Anpresskraft der prismatischen Vorsprünge des Druckstücks auf der Fensterscheibe abgebaut, so dass die Fensterscheibe neu ausgerichtet werden kann. Nach dem Ausrichten der Fensterscheibe wird die Gewindemutter gegen das Druckstück wieder angezogen und dadurch die kraftschlüssige Verbindung zwischen dem Mitnehmer und der Fensterscheibe wieder hergestellt.In order to be able to readjust the window pane after assembly without access to the screw, a receiving leg facing away from the main driver body is provided with a A threaded sleeve is provided with a through-hole and an internal thread formed therein, into which the screw is screwed for bracing the receiving legs. The threaded sleeve has an external thread which is screwed into an internal thread of a knurled threaded nut resting on the outside of the pressure piece. To readjust the window pane, the threaded nut is rotated to loosen the non-positive connection between the window pane and the driver, so that the pressure piece resting on the window pane moves away from the window pane. As a result, the contact pressure of the prismatic projections of the pressure piece on the window pane is reduced so that the window pane can be realigned. After the window pane has been aligned, the threaded nut is tightened again against the pressure piece, thereby reestablishing the non-positive connection between the driver and the window pane.

Nachteilig bei dieser Ausgestaltung eines Mitnehmers zur Vereinfachung der nachträglichen Justage einer Fensterscheibe sind das zum Einspannen der Fensterscheibe zusätzlich erforderliche, mit den prismatischen Vorsprüngen aufwändig gestaltete Druckstück und die Anordnung entsprechender Durchbrüche in dem Aufnahmeschenkel der Aufnahmegabel sowie eine ungünstige, hohe Flächenpressung zwischen dem Druckstück und der Fensterscheibe im Bereich der prismatischen Vorsprünge.Disadvantages of this design of a driver to simplify the subsequent adjustment of a window pane are the pressure piece, which is additionally required for clamping the window pane, with the prismatic projections, and the arrangement of corresponding openings in the receiving leg of the receiving fork, as well as an unfavorable, high surface pressure between the pressure piece and the Window pane in the area of the prismatic protrusions.

Ein weiterer Mitnehmer zur Führung einer Fensterscheibe entlang einer Führungsschiene einer Fensterheberbaugruppe ist in der DE 10 2005 004 546 A1 beschrieben.Another driver for guiding a window pane along a guide rail of a window regulator assembly is in the DE 10 2005 004 546 A1 described.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, einen Mitnehmer der eingangs genannten Art bereitzustellen, bei dem die Fensterscheibe sowohl mittels der Spannschraube als auch zur Nachjustierung mittels eines Schraubelements, beispielsweise in Form eines Rändelrades, mit dem Mitnehmer bei optimaler Flächenpressung der Fensterscheibe verspannt werden kann, ohne dass Spannungen in der Klemmvorrichtung auftreten.The object of the present invention is to provide a driver of the type mentioned at the outset, in which the window pane can be clamped both by means of the clamping screw and for readjustment by means of a screw element, for example in the form of a knurled wheel, with the driver with optimal surface pressure of the window pane, without that tensions occur in the clamping device.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved according to the invention with the features of claim 1.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung stellt einen Mitnehmer zur Führung einer Fensterscheibe entlang einer Führungsschiene einer Fensterheberbaugruppe bereit, bei dem das Innengewinde der Gewindehülse mit der Spannschraube und das Außengewinde der Gewindehülse mit einem Innengewinde eines Schraubelements verschraubt und die Gewindehülse axial (bezüglich der Klemmplatte) verschiebbar und drehfest an der inneren Klemmplatte gehalten ist und das Schraubelement an der Außenseite der inneren Klemmplatte einer die Fensterscheibe einspannenden Klemmvorrichtung anliegt.The solution according to the invention provides a driver for guiding a window pane along a guide rail of a window regulator assembly, in which the internal thread of the threaded sleeve with the clamping screw and the external thread of the The threaded sleeve is screwed to an internal thread of a screw element and the threaded sleeve is held axially (with respect to the clamping plate) displaceably and non-rotatably on the inner clamping plate and the screw element rests against the outside of the inner clamping plate of a clamping device clamping the window pane.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Mitnehmer wird die Fensterscheibe derart zwischen den beiden Klemmplatten eingespannt, dass die Einspannkraft auf den gesamten Kontaktbereich der Fensterscheibe mit den Klemmplatten oder einen durch die Formgebung der Klemmplatten vorgegebenen Kontaktbereich verteilt wird. Die drehfest an der inneren Klemmplatte gehaltene Gewindehülse ermöglicht unabhängig voneinander ein Einspannen der Fensterscheibe zwischen den Klemmplatten einerseits durch die Spannschraube und andererseits durch das Schraubelement. Infolge der Beweglichkeit der Gewindehülse in axialer Richtung werden Spannungen in der Klemmvorrichtung verhindert, da sich die innere Klemmplatte beim Lösen und Fixieren der Fensterscheibe mittels des Schraubelements frei bewegen kann.In the driver according to the invention, the window pane is clamped between the two clamping plates in such a way that the clamping force is distributed over the entire contact area of the window pane with the clamping plates or a contact area predetermined by the shape of the clamping plates. The threaded sleeve held non-rotatably on the inner clamping plate enables the window pane to be clamped between the clamping plates independently of one another, on the one hand by the clamping screw and on the other hand by the screw element. As a result of the mobility of the threaded sleeve in the axial direction, tensions in the clamping device are prevented, since the inner clamping plate can move freely when the window pane is loosened and fixed by means of the screw element.

Zur Vereinfachung der Zugänglichkeit ist das Schraubelement bevorzugt in Form eines Rändelrades ausgebildet.To simplify accessibility, the screw element is preferably designed in the form of a knurled wheel.

Im Unterschied zu dem aus der DE 10 2005 004 000 A1 bekannten Mitnehmer sind durch den Wegfall des aufwändig gestalteten Druckstückes und der entsprechenden Durchbrüche in der entsprechenden Klemmplatte der Klemmvorrichtung weniger Einzelteile für das nachträgliche Justieren einer Fensterscheibe in den Mitnehmern einer Fensterhebevorrichtung erforderlich, wobei das Einspannen der Fensterscheibe in der Klemmvorrichtung über eine zusammenhängende Fläche unter Ausnutzung des gesamten oder eines vorgebbaren Kontaktbereiches zwischen der Fensterscheibe und der Klemmvorrichtung erfolgt.In contrast to the one from the DE 10 2005 004 000 A1 known drivers are due to the elimination of the elaborately designed pressure piece and the corresponding openings in the corresponding clamping plate of the clamping device, fewer items for the subsequent adjustment of a window pane in the drivers of a window lifting device required, the clamping of the window pane in the clamping device over a contiguous area using the entire or a predeterminable contact area between the window pane and the clamping device takes place.

Dementsprechend bildet die innere Klemmplatte um die die Gewindehülse aufnehmende Bohrung eine Auflagefläche für die Fensterscheibe mit zentrischer Krafteinleitung, was durch die Anordnung konzentrisch zur Bohrung der inneren und äußeren Klemmplatte angeordneter ringförmiger Stege, die von der der Fensterscheibe zugewandten Seite von der inneren und äußeren Klemmplatte vorstehen, verstärkt wird.Correspondingly, the inner clamping plate around the bore receiving the threaded sleeve forms a bearing surface for the window pane with central force introduction, which is achieved by the arrangement of annular webs arranged concentrically to the bore of the inner and outer clamping plate, which protrude from the side facing the window pane of the inner and outer clamping plate , is amplified.

Um für die Verbindung der Gewindehülse mit dem Schraubelement eine hinreichende Länge für die Verschraubung des Außengewindes der Gewindehülse mit dem Innengewinde des Schraubelements bereitzustellen, ist das Innengewinde des Schraubelements in einem Durchzug angeordnet.In order for the connection of the threaded sleeve to the screw element a sufficient length for the screwing of the external thread of the threaded sleeve with the To provide internal thread of the screw element, the internal thread of the screw element is arranged in a passage.

Die Spannschraube ist durch einen Durchzug der am Schraubelement anliegenden inneren Klemmplatte gesteckt, die ebenso wie die äußere Klemmplatte vorzugsweise aus einem Kunststoff besteht, so dass ein Kontakt der Fensterscheibe mit der metallischen Spannschraube verhindert wird.The tensioning screw is inserted through a passage of the inner clamping plate resting on the screw element, which, like the outer clamping plate, is preferably made of a plastic, so that contact of the window pane with the metallic clamping screw is prevented.

Die drehfeste, aber axial verschiebbare Lagerung der Gewindehülse in der inneren Klemmplatte wird vorzugsweise über eine formschlüssige Verbindung der Gewindehülse mit der inneren Klemmplatte erreicht, so dass sich die Gewindehülse innerhalb des Formschlussbereiches axial verschieben kann.The non-rotatable but axially displaceable mounting of the threaded sleeve in the inner clamping plate is preferably achieved via a form-fitting connection of the threaded sleeve with the inner clamping plate, so that the threaded sleeve can move axially within the form-fitting area.

Der Formschlussbereich zwischen der Gewindehülse und der inneren Klemmplatte kann beispielsweise aus einem Endabschnitt der Gewindehülse mit einem Mehrkant, der im montierten Zustand der Fensterscheibe formschlüssig in eine korrespondierende Mehrkantausnehmung in der inneren Klemmplatte eingreift, oder aus radialen Führungsstegen im Endabschnitt der Gewindehülse bestehen, die im montierten Zustand der Fensterscheibe formschlüssig in radiale Führungsnuten in der inneren Klemmpatte eingreifen.The form-fit area between the threaded sleeve and the inner clamping plate can consist, for example, of an end section of the threaded sleeve with a polygon which, when the window pane is installed, engages positively in a corresponding polygonal recess in the inner clamping plate, or of radial guide webs in the end section of the threaded sleeve that are mounted in the State of the window pane positively engage in radial guide grooves in the inner clamping plate.

Dabei weisen der Mehrkant oder der radiale Steg im Endabschnitt der Gewindehülse und die korrespondierende Mehrkantaufnahme oder der korrespondierende Schlitz in der inneren Klemmplatte eine derartige axiale Länge auf, dass der Formschluss zwischen dem Mehrkant oder dem radialen Steg im Endabschnitt der Gewindehülse und der korrespondierenden Mehrkantaufnahme oder dem korrespondierenden Schlitz in der inneren Klemmplatte beim Lösen der Verspannung der Klemmplatten erhalten bleibt.The polygon or the radial web in the end section of the threaded sleeve and the corresponding polygonal receptacle or the corresponding slot in the inner clamping plate have such an axial length that the form fit between the polygon or the radial web in the end section of the threaded sleeve and the corresponding polygonal receptacle or the The corresponding slot in the inner clamping plate is retained when the clamping plates are loosened.

Um ein ungewolltes Verdrehen des Schraubelements im montierten Zustand der Fensterscheibe zu verhindern, ist zwischen dem Schraubelement und der inneren Klemmplatte ein auf die Gewindehülse aufgesteckter Klemmring angeordnet.In order to prevent the screw element from rotating unintentionally when the window pane is installed, a clamping ring is arranged between the screw element and the inner clamping plate and is fitted onto the threaded sleeve.

Zum Nachjustieren der Fensterscheibe, beispielsweise zu deren Ausrichtung in Bezug auf die Dachlinie eines Kraftfahrzeugs bei einer rahmenlosen Fensterscheibe, ist ein radiales Spiel zwischen dem Außendurchmesser der Gewindehülse bzw. dem die Spannschraube aufnehmenden Durchzug der inneren Klemmplatte und dem Innenrand des Scheibendurchbruches, insbesondere dem Innenrand eines Scheibenloches, durch eine entsprechende Dimensionierung des Scheibendurchbruches und der Spannschraube bzw. des Durchzuges vorgesehen.To readjust the window pane, for example to align it with respect to the roof line of a motor vehicle in the case of a frameless window pane, there is a radial play between the outer diameter of the threaded sleeve or the passage of the inner clamping plate that accommodates the tensioning screw and the inner edge of the disk opening, in particular the inner edge of a disk hole, is provided by appropriate dimensioning of the disk opening and the clamping screw or the passage.

Zur Erleichterung des Einführens der Fensterscheibe in die Klemmvorrichtung weisen die Klemmplatten Einführschrägen zur Aufnahme der Unterkante der Fensterscheibe beim Einsetzen der Fensterscheibe in den Spalt zwischen den Klemmplatten auf.To facilitate the introduction of the window pane into the clamping device, the clamping plates have insertion bevels for receiving the lower edge of the window pane when the window pane is inserted into the gap between the clamping plates.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform weist der Außenumfang des Schraubelements eine Profilierung nach Art einer Verzahnung auf, die mit einem entsprechenden Werkzeug zum Lösen bzw. Herstellen der Verspannung der Fensterscheibe mit der Klemmvorrichtung in Eingriff gebracht werden kann.In a preferred embodiment, the outer circumference of the screw element has a profiling in the manner of a toothing, which can be brought into engagement with the clamping device with a corresponding tool for releasing or producing the tensioning of the window pane.

Zur erleichterten Montage und definierten Ausrichtung der miteinander fluchtenden Bohrungen der Klemmplatten mit der Bohrung des Mitnehmergrundkörpers sind die Klemmplatten mit ihren unteren Enden in einer Aufnahme des Mitnehmergrundkörpers eingehängt, so dass die Spannschraube durch eine mit den Bohrungen der Klemmplatten fluchtende Bohrung gesteckt wird und mit dem Schraubenkopf an der Außenseite des Mitnehmergrundkörpers anliegt.For easier assembly and defined alignment of the aligned bores of the clamping plates with the bore of the basic driver body, the lower ends of the clamping plates are suspended in a receptacle in the basic driver body, so that the clamping screw is inserted through a bore that is aligned with the bores of the clamping plates and with the screw head on the outside of the driver base body.

Die in den Fig. 1 und 2 aus unterschiedlichen Blickrichtungen dargestellten perspektivischen Explosionsdarstellungen zeigen eine Fensterscheibe 1 mit einer gewölbten Scheibenoberkante 11, deren Wölbung dem Dachkantenverlauf eines Kraftfahrzeugs angepasst ist, einer Scheibenunterkante 12 und einem als Scheibenloch 10 ausgebildeten Scheibendurchbruch. Zur Anbindung der Fensterscheibe 1 an eine Fensterheberbaugruppe ist ein aus einem Mitnehmergrundkörper 2 und einer Klemmvorrichtung 3 zusammengesetzter Mitnehmer vorgesehen, der an einer Führungsschiene verschiebbar angeordnet und entlang der Führungsschiene mittels eines Zugseiles von einem Fensterheberantrieb verstellbar ist. Hierzu weist der Mitnehmergrundkörper 2 einen Eingriffsbereich 20 für die Führungsschiene sowie eine Nippelkammer 23 zur Aufnahme eines mit dem Zugseil verbundenen Nippels auf.The ones in the Fig. 1 and 2 Perspective exploded views shown from different perspectives show a window pane 1 with a curved upper pane edge 11, the curvature of which is adapted to the course of the roof edge of a motor vehicle, a lower pane edge 12 and a pane opening designed as a pane hole 10. To connect the window pane 1 to a window lifter assembly, a driver composed of a driver base body 2 and a clamping device 3 is provided, which is slidably arranged on a guide rail and adjustable along the guide rail by means of a pull rope from a window lifter drive. For this purpose, the main driver body 2 has an engagement area 20 for the guide rail and a nipple chamber 23 for receiving a nipple connected to the pull rope.

Die Anbindung der Fensterscheibe 1 an den Mitnehmer erfolgt dadurch, dass die Scheibenunterkante 12 in eine schlitzförmige Öffnung zwischen einer inneren Klemmplatte 4 und einer an der der Fensterscheibe 1 zugewandten Fläche des Mitnehmergrundkörpers 2 anliegenden äußeren Klemmplatte 5 der Klemmvorrichtung 3, eingesetzt und durch Verspannen der inneren Klemmplatte 4 mit der äußeren Klemmplatte 5 fixiert wird. Zum erleichterten Einführen der Scheibenunterkante 12 in die schlitzförmige Öffnung der Klemmvorrichtung 3 dienen an der Oberkante der inneren und äußeren Klemmplatte 4, 5 angeordnete Einführungsschrägen 40, 50. Am entgegen gesetzten unteren Ende sind die Klemmplatten 4, 5 miteinander verbunden und weisen einen Formschlussbereich 30 auf, der entsprechend dem in den Fig. 3 bis 8 dargestellten montierten Zustand der Fensterscheibe 1 und des Mitnehmers in eine hakenförmige Einhängung 21 am unteren Ende des Mitnehmergrundkörpers 2 eingesetzt ist.The window pane 1 is connected to the driver by inserting the lower edge 12 of the pane into a slot-shaped opening between an inner clamping plate 4 and an outer clamping plate 5 of the clamping device 3 lying against the surface of the main driver body 2 facing the window pane 1, and by bracing the inner one Clamping plate 4 with the outer Clamping plate 5 is fixed. To facilitate insertion of the lower edge of the pane 12 into the slot-shaped opening of the clamping device 3, insertion bevels 40, 50 are provided on the upper edge of the inner and outer clamping plates 4, 5 which corresponds to that in the Figures 3 to 8 The shown mounted state of the window pane 1 and the driver is inserted into a hook-shaped suspension 21 at the lower end of the driver base body 2.

Bei in die hakenförmige Einhängung 21 des Mitnehmergrundkörpers 2 eingesetzter Klemmvorrichtung 3 fluchtet gemäß dem in Fig. 5 dargestellten Längsschnitt durch den Mitnehmer eine im Mitnehmergrundkörper 2 angeordnete Bohrung 22 mit Bohrungen 41, 51 in den Klemmplatten 4, 5 der Klemmvorrichtung 3 und mit dem Scheibenloch 10 der in die Klemmvorrichtung 3 eingesetzten Fensterscheibe 1.When the clamping device 3 is inserted into the hook-shaped suspension 21 of the driver base body 2, it is aligned according to the in Fig. 5 shown longitudinal section through the driver a bore 22 arranged in the driver base body 2 with bores 41, 51 in the clamping plates 4, 5 of the clamping device 3 and with the pane hole 10 of the window pane 1 inserted in the clamping device 3.

In die als Durchzug 41, der in Richtung auf die äußere Klemmplatte 5 gerichtet ist, ausgebildete Bohrung der inneren Klemmplatte 4 ist eine Gewindehülse 6 eingesteckt, die in ihrem dem Mitnehmergrundkörper 2 zugewandten Endbereich einen Sechskant 91 aufweist. Der Sechskant 91 korrespondiert mit einem in einer von der äußeren Klemmplatte 5 weggerichteten Ausstellung oder Wölbung 42 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 ausgebildeten Innensechskant 92, so dass die im montierten Zustand in die innere Klemmplatte 4 eingesetzte Gewindehülse 6 drehfest mit der inneren Klemmplatte 4 verbunden ist.A threaded sleeve 6, which has a hexagon 91 in its end region facing the main driver body 2, is inserted into the bore of the inner clamping plate 4, designed as a passage 41, which is directed towards the outer clamping plate 5. The hexagon 91 corresponds to a hexagon socket 92 formed in an exposition or curvature 42 of the inner clamping plate 4 directed away from the outer clamping plate 5, so that the threaded sleeve 6 inserted into the inner clamping plate 4 in the assembled state is connected to the inner clamping plate 4 in a rotationally fixed manner.

Die Gewindehülse 6 weist ein Innengewinde 61 sowie ein Außengewinde 62 auf. Durch die Bohrung 22 im Mitnehmergrundkörper 2 wird eine Spannschraube 7 gesteckt, deren Schraubenschaft 71 mit einem Außengewinde versehen ist, das mit dem Innengewinde 61 der Gewindehülse 6 verschraubt wird. Der an der Außenseite des Mitnehmergrundkörpers 2 anliegende Schraubenkopf 70 weist gemäß Fig. 2 einen Innensechskant 72 zum Einschrauben der Spannschraube 7 in das Innengewinde 61 der Gewindehülse 6 auf.The threaded sleeve 6 has an internal thread 61 and an external thread 62. A clamping screw 7 is inserted through the bore 22 in the main driver body 2, the screw shaft 71 of which is provided with an external thread which is screwed to the internal thread 61 of the threaded sleeve 6. The screw head 70 resting on the outside of the main driver body 2 has according to FIG Fig. 2 a hexagon socket 72 for screwing the clamping screw 7 into the internal thread 61 of the threaded sleeve 6.

Das Außengewinde 62 der Gewindehülse 6 ist mit einem Innengewinde 81 eines Schraubelements in Form eines Rändelrades 8 verschraubt, das an der Außenseite der inneren Klemmplatte 4 anliegt. Das Innengewinde 81 des Rändelrades 8 ist in einem von der inneren Klemmplatte 4 weg gerichteten Durchzug 82 angeordnet, so dass zur Verschraubung des Außengewindes 62 der Gewindehülse 6 mit dem Innengewinde 81 des Rändelrades 8 eine hinreichende Gewindelänge zur Verfügung steht. Der Außenrand des Rändelrades 8 weist eine nach Art einer Verzahnung ausgebildete Rändelung 80 auf, in die ein entsprechendes Werkzeug zum Betätigen des Rändelrades 8 eingesetzt werden kann. Alternativ kann das Schraubelement 8 als Mehrkantmutter oder als Scheibe mit diagonalen Schlitzen ausgebildet sein.The external thread 62 of the threaded sleeve 6 is screwed to an internal thread 81 of a screw element in the form of a knurled wheel 8, which rests against the outside of the inner clamping plate 4. The internal thread 81 of the knurled wheel 8 is arranged in a passage 82 directed away from the internal clamping plate 4, so that for screwing the external thread 62 of the threaded sleeve 6 with the internal thread 81 of the knurling wheel 8 a sufficient thread length is available. The outer edge of the knurling wheel 8 has knurling 80 designed in the manner of a toothing, into which a corresponding tool for operating the knurling wheel 8 can be inserted. Alternatively, the screw element 8 can be designed as a polygonal nut or as a washer with diagonal slots.

Eine konzentrische Verspannung der Fensterscheibe 1 mit der inneren und äußeren Klemmplatte 4, 5 wird durch ringförmige Stege 43, 52 auf den einander zugewandten Innenseiten der inneren und äußeren Klemmplatte 4, 5 unterstützt.A concentric bracing of the window pane 1 with the inner and outer clamping plates 4, 5 is supported by annular webs 43, 52 on the inner sides of the inner and outer clamping plates 4, 5 facing one another.

Die Fensterscheibe 1 wird mit dem Mitnehmer wie folgt verbunden:
Vor der Verbindung der Fensterscheibe 1 mit dem Mitnehmer wird die Gewindehülse 6 in die als Durchzug 41 ausgebildete Bohrung der inneren Klemmplatte 4 eingesteckt bis der Sechskant 91 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 vom Innensechskant 92 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 aufgenommen ist.
The window pane 1 is connected to the driver as follows:
Before connecting the window pane 1 to the driver, the threaded sleeve 6 is inserted into the bore 41 in the inner clamping plate 4 until the hexagon 91 of the inner clamping plate 4 is received by the hexagon socket 92 of the inner clamping plate 4.

Nachfolgend wird das Innengewinde 81 des Rändelrades 8 auf das Außengewinde 62 der Gewindehülse 6 aufgeschraubt, so dass der Außensechskant 91 der Gewindehülse 6 in dem Innensechskant 92 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 gehalten und damit die Gewindehülse 6 drehfest gelagert ist. Wie insbesondere dem in Fig. 5 dargestellten Längsschnitt zu entnehmen ist, befindet sich der Sechskant 91 der Gewindehülse 6 im montierten Zustand in Eingriff mit dem in der Wölbung 42 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 ausgebildeten Innensechskant 92, wobei das Rändelrad 8 nahezu vollständig mit seinem Innengewinde 81 auf das Außengewinde 62 der Gewindehülse 6 aufgeschraubt ist.Subsequently, the internal thread 81 of the knurled wheel 8 is screwed onto the external thread 62 of the threaded sleeve 6 so that the external hexagon 91 of the threaded sleeve 6 is held in the internal hexagon 92 of the inner clamping plate 4 and the threaded sleeve 6 is rotatably mounted. As in particular the in Fig. 5 As can be seen in the longitudinal section shown, the hexagon 91 of the threaded sleeve 6 in the assembled state is in engagement with the internal hexagon 92 formed in the curvature 42 of the inner clamping plate 4, the knurled wheel 8 almost completely with its internal thread 81 on the external thread 62 of the threaded sleeve 6 is screwed on.

Anschließend wird die Fensterscheibe 1 in den Schlitz zwischen der inneren Klemmplatte 4 und der äußeren Klemmplatte 5 gesteckt bis das Scheibenloch 10 mit den miteinander fluchtenden Bohrungen 22 des Mitnehmergrundkörpers 2, 51 der äußeren Klemmplatte 5 und 41 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 fluchtet. In die miteinander fluchtenden Bohrungen 22, 41, 51 und das mit den Bohrungen 22, 41, 51 fluchtende Scheibenloch 10 wird die Spannschraube 7 gesteckt und mit dem Innengewinde 61 der Gewindehülse 6 verschraubt, bis der Schraubenkopf 70 an der Außenseite des Mitnehmergrundkörpers 2 anliegt und die Fensterscheibe 1 kraftschlüssig zwischen den einander zugewandten Flächen der inneren Klemmplatte 4 und der äußeren Klemmplatte 5 eingespannt ist.The window pane 1 is then inserted into the slot between the inner clamping plate 4 and the outer clamping plate 5 until the pane hole 10 is aligned with the aligned bores 22 of the driver base body 2, 51 of the outer clamping plate 5 and 41 of the inner clamping plate 4. The clamping screw 7 is inserted into the aligned bores 22, 41, 51 and the disk hole 10 aligned with the bores 22, 41, 51 and screwed to the internal thread 61 of the threaded sleeve 6 until the screw head 70 rests against the outside of the main driver body 2 and the window pane 1 is frictionally clamped between the mutually facing surfaces of the inner clamping plate 4 and the outer clamping plate 5.

Fig. 5 verdeutlicht, dass der Durchzug 41 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 den Schaft 71 der Spannschraube 7 radial abdeckt, so dass ein Kontakt des Lochrandes des Scheibenlochs 10 mit der metallischen Spannschraube 7 vermieden wird. Fig. 5 shows that the passage 41 of the inner clamping plate 4 covers the shaft 71 of the clamping screw 7 radially, so that contact of the edge of the disk hole 10 with the metallic clamping screw 7 is avoided.

Dabei besteht entsprechend dem in Fig. 8 dargestellten Längsschnitt zusätzlich auch eine formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen dem Scheibenloch 10 der Fensterscheibe 1 und der Spannschraube 7 bzw. dem die Spannschraube 7 umgebenden Durchzug 41 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 mit einem hinreichenden radialen Spiel, das einen Toleranzausgleich zum Justieren bzw. Nachjustieren der Fensterscheibe 1 bezüglich der Tür- oder Fahrzeugkarosserie ermöglicht, so dass beispielsweise die Oberkante 11 der Fensterscheibe 1 in Bezug auf die Dachlinie einer Fahrzeugtür oder Fahrzeugkarosserie eingestellt werden kann, insbesondere beim Einsatz von rahmenlosen Fensterscheiben.According to the in Fig. 8 shown longitudinal section additionally also a positive connection between the pane hole 10 of the window pane 1 and the clamping screw 7 or the passage 41 of the inner clamping plate 4 surrounding the clamping screw 7 with sufficient radial play, which allows for tolerance compensation for adjusting or readjusting the window pane 1 with respect to the Door or vehicle body allows, so that, for example, the upper edge 11 of the window pane 1 can be adjusted in relation to the roof line of a vehicle door or vehicle body, in particular when using frameless window panes.

Nach dem Einbau der Fensterheberbaugruppe in eine Fahrzeugtür ist ein Zugang zum Schraubenkopf 70 zum Lösen der Verspannung zwischen der Klemmvorrichtung 3 und der Fensterscheibe 1 nicht oder nur schwer möglich. Der erfindungsgemäße Mitnehmer ermöglicht es aber, in der nachstehend beschriebenen Art, die Fensterscheibe 1 ohne Zugriff auf die Spannschraube 7 nach deren Montage zu justieren bzw. neu zu justieren.After the window lifter assembly has been installed in a vehicle door, access to the screw head 70 for releasing the tension between the clamping device 3 and the window pane 1 is not possible or is only possible with difficulty. However, the driver according to the invention makes it possible, in the manner described below, to adjust or readjust the window pane 1 without access to the clamping screw 7 after it has been installed.

Zum Lösen der kraftschlüssigen Verbindung zwischen der Fensterscheibe 1 und den Klemmplatten 4, 5 der Klemmvorrichtung 3 des Mitnehmers wird ein Werkzeug mit der Rändelung 80 des Rändelrades 8 in Eingriff gebracht und das Rändelrad 8 in Richtung eines Lösens des Rändelrades 8 von der Anlage an der inneren Klemmplatte 4 gedreht. Dadurch wird die Anpresskraft der inneren Klemmplatte 4 an der Fensterscheibe 1 abgebaut und eine axiale Verschiebung der Gewindehülse 6 ermöglicht, so dass die Verspannung zwischen der inneren Klemmplatte 4 und äußeren Klemmplatte 5 zur Freigabe der Fensterscheibe 1 gelöst und die Fensterscheibe 1 in ihrer Lage bezüglich des Mitnehmers infolge des zwischen dem Rand des Scheibenloches 10 und dem Durchzug 41 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 ausgebildeten radialen Spiels justiert bzw. neu ausgerichtet werden kann. Nach dem Ausrichten der Fensterscheibe 1 wird das Rändelrad 8 in entgegengesetzter Richtung gedreht, so dass sich das Rändelrad 8 an die innere Klemmplatte 4 anlegt und dadurch die kraftschlüssige Verbindung zwischen der Klemmvorrichtung 3 des Mitnehmers und der Fensterscheibe 1 wieder herstellt.To release the non-positive connection between the window pane 1 and the clamping plates 4, 5 of the clamping device 3 of the driver, a tool is brought into engagement with the knurling 80 of the knurled wheel 8 and the knurled wheel 8 is brought into engagement with the knurled wheel 8 in the direction of loosening the knurled wheel 8 from its contact with the inner one Clamping plate 4 rotated. As a result, the contact pressure of the inner clamping plate 4 on the window pane 1 is reduced and an axial displacement of the threaded sleeve 6 is made possible, so that the tension between the inner clamping plate 4 and outer clamping plate 5 to release the window pane 1 is released and the window pane 1 is in its position with respect to the Driver can be adjusted or realigned as a result of the radial play formed between the edge of the disk hole 10 and the passage 41 of the inner clamping plate 4. After aligning the window pane 1, the knurled wheel 8 is rotated in the opposite direction so that the knurled wheel 8 rests against the inner clamping plate 4 and thereby re-establishes the non-positive connection between the clamping device 3 of the driver and the window pane 1.

Das in den Fig. 9 und 10 dargestellte zweite Ausführungsbeispiel zur drehfesten Lagerung und axialen Verschiebbarkeit der Gewindehülse 6 (relativ zu der Klemmplatte 4) unterscheidet sich von dem vorstehend anhand der Fig. 1 bis 8 beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiel lediglich in der Ausbildung der formschlüssigen Verbindung des Endbereichs der Gewindehülse 6 mit dem gewölbten bzw. ausgestellten Bereich 42 der inneren Klemmplatte 4, so dass bezüglich der anderen Konstruktionselemente, deren Bezugszeichen mit den Bezugszeichen des in den Fig. 1 bis 8 dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels übereinstimmen, und deren Funktion auf die vorstehende Beschreibung Bezug genommen wird.That in the Fig. 9 and 10 The illustrated second embodiment for the non-rotatable mounting and axial displaceability of the threaded sleeve 6 (relative to the clamping plate 4) differs from the one above on the basis of Figures 1 to 8 described embodiment only in the formation of the form-fitting connection of the end region of the threaded sleeve 6 with the arched or flared region 42 of the inner clamping plate 4, so that with respect to the other construction elements, their reference numerals with the reference numerals of the in the Figures 1 to 8 shown embodiment match, and their function reference is made to the preceding description.

Beim zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel wird die formschlüssige Verbindung des Endbereichs der Gewindehülse 6 mit dem gewölbten bzw. ausgestellten Bereich 42 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 durch im Endbereich der Gewindehülse 6 ausgebildete radial ausgerichtete Führungsstege 93 und hierzu korrespondierende radiale Führungsnuten 94 im ausgestellten Bereich 42 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 hergestellt. Durch eine entsprechende axiale Länge der Führungsnuten 94 im ausgestellten Bereich 42 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 ist gewährleistet, dass die Gewindehülse 6 bei gelöstem Rändelrad 8 ein hinreichendes axiales Spiel in den Führungsnuten 94 hat.In the second embodiment, the positive connection of the end area of the threaded sleeve 6 with the arched or flared area 42 of the inner clamping plate 4 is established by radially aligned guide webs 93 formed in the end area of the threaded sleeve 6 and corresponding radial guide grooves 94 in the flared area 42 of the inner clamping plate 4 . A corresponding axial length of the guide grooves 94 in the exposed area 42 of the inner clamping plate 4 ensures that the threaded sleeve 6 has sufficient axial play in the guide grooves 94 when the knurled wheel 8 is released.

Zur Sicherung des Rändelrades 8 gegenüber einer unbeabsichtigten Verdrehung ist ein Montageklemmring 15 vorgesehen, der zwischen dem Formschlussbereich der Gewindehülse 6 und dem Rändelrad 8 angeordnet ist.To secure the knurled wheel 8 against unintentional rotation, a mounting clamping ring 15 is provided, which is arranged between the form-fit area of the threaded sleeve 6 and the knurled wheel 8.

Fig. 10 verdeutlicht in einer perspektivischen Explosionsdarstellung den in den Klemmbereich der Fensterscheibe 1 mit den Klemmplatten 4, 5 hineinragenden Durchzug 41 der inneren Klemmplatte 4 zum Schutz des Scheibenloches 10 der Fensterscheibe 1. Fig. 10 illustrates in a perspective exploded view the passage 41 of the inner clamping plate 4 protruding into the clamping area of the window pane 1 with the clamping plates 4, 5 to protect the pane hole 10 of the window pane 1.
