9Claims.
This invention relates to ventilating windows for .vehicle bodies, particularly automobile bodies of the type wherein a window opening in the side or door of the body is provided with a window glass adapted to be raised and lowered therein and also adjusted into position to provide a ventilating slot or opening at one upright edge of the glass.
An object of the present inventionis to prosubstantiallyso in a straight line path into fully closed position, and wherein the glass is adapted to be tilted or oscillated angularly after attaining opening to produce a ventilating slot or opening at one upright edge of the glass, preferably the forward edge, whereby air may be exhausted,
during the forward travel of the vehicle, from the interior of the body through the ventilating slot or opening when the glass is in its tilted or ventilating position.
A further object of the invention is to provide improved wihdow regulator mechanism connected to the lower edge of the glass of a ventilating window of the above mentioned type, said mechanism being operable to raise and lower the glass and also to tilt the glass, when raised, into and out of position to provide the ventilating slot.
' The above and other objects and advantages of the invention will appear from the following description and appended claims when considered in connection with the accompanying drawings forming a part of this specification.
In said drawings: Fig. 1 is a. fragmentary elevation, partly in section. and partly broken away, illustrating a front door of a vehicle body embodying the invention and showing the position of the operating mechanism when the glass is in ventilating position.
said fully closed position within the window along the line 5-5 of Fig. 1, in the direction of the arrows; and
Fig. 6 is fragmentary elevation, partly in section, of the door of Fig. 1, showing the position of the operating mechanism when the glass is 5 closed or in non-ventilating position.
Before explaining in detail the present invention it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and arrangement of parts illustrated 1 in'the accompanying drawings, since the invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced or carried out in various ways. Also it is to be understood that the phraseology or terminology employed herein is for the purpose of description and not of limitation, and it is not intended to limit the invention claimed herein beyond the requirements of the prior art.
Referring particularly to the drawings there is shown, by way of example, the front door of a vehicle, such, as a motor vehicle, having a window glass mounted therein and adapted to be elevated by aregulator mechanism into and out of position within the window opening of the door, and to be shifted or tilted downwardly by said mechanism when in fully closed position to provide a ventilating slot or opening between one upright edge of the glass and the adjacent door pillar. The regulator mechanism is thus operative to shift the window glass into open or closed positions and to tilt or oscillate the glass angularly in its plane in a downward direction when in fully closed position to produce a ventilating slot at one upright edge of the glass and, prior to lowering the glass, to tilt or oscillate the glass angularly in its plane in an upward direction to close the ventilating slot.
As shown inthe drawings, the door comprises a front pillar l0 and a rear pillar I I connected at their upper ends by the usual header If. The 0 door also comprises an outer metal panel I3 and an inner metal panel [4 provided with a garnish molding Ma, these panels forming a Well within the door for receiving the window glass when lowered. Mounted in the front pillar I0 is a felted glass channel member l5 and in the rear pillar it there is mounted a felted glass channel member ii, there being a connecting channel member l6 located in the header l2. These cooperating felted channel members provide seats 0 and guides for the upright and top edges of the window glass 18. The rear or inner upright edge of the glass is preferably cut so as to extend at an angle to its bottom edge l8a, as at llib, which angle is herein shown as greater than a right angle. The top edge of the glass is curved at. I to conform to the curvature of the channel members l5 and I6 and likewise to conform to the shape or contour of the window reveal. Toward its lower forward edge the glass is cut at lad to provide a straight guiding edge and terminates in a lower forward rounded corner portion l8e. The straight angular edge |8b permits the glass to be tilted or oscillated angularly in its plane when in fully raised position in its window opening as shown in Fig. 1, in which position a ventilating slot or opening 40 is provided at the forward upright edge of the glass. The front runway or channel I5 is extended downwardly in a substantially vertical plane to provide a relatively shallow channel portion l9. The rear channel I1 is extended downwardly to provide an angularly disposed or inclined relatively shallow channel portion 20 which, as shown in Fig. 6, extends in an inclined plane which is substantially parallel to the inclined rear 'edge llb of the glass. The channel extensions l9 and 29 together serve to guide the window glass during the lower portion of its travel. The rear channel 29 guides the rear edge of the glass while being lowered or raised in a path which clears the door handle operating shaft 2|.
The window regulator for raising and lowering the glass and for tilting or oscillating it angularly. in its planewhen in raised position may be of any suitable construction. In the present embodiment, by way of example, the regulator comprises a mounting plate 22 securedinany suitable manner, as by screws 22a, to a lock board on the inside of the door well. The plate 22 carries a pair of intermeshing gears 22 and 24 which are journaled on-the plate by means of pivots 23a and 24a, respectively. The gears are rotated by means of a pinion 2i operated by a handle 29. Secured to the pivot 23:; is a swinging arm' 21 and secured to the pivot 24a is another swinging arm 29, these arms being adapted to be swung in opposite directio s by rotation of the gears. 8ecured to the outer end of the arm 21 is a stud or button-like device 29 having a shank riveted to the end of the arm (Fig. 4). Tvthe outer end of the arm 28 there is secured another stud or button-like device 39 having its shank riveted to the end of the arm. Secured to the'lower normally horizontally disposed edge I 9a of the glass I8 is a glass retainer member including a felted channel 3| having adjacent one end a plate 32 preferably spot welded to one face of the channel (see Fig. 4) and having a forwardly flanged wall providing withthe bottom of the channel ii a runway or slot 93 for the stud 29. Adjacent the opposite or inner end of the felted channel 3| there is provided a depending plate 34 secured to the channel preferably by spot welding (Fig. 5) The lower end of the plate 3| is flanged at 34a, this flange cooperating with a similar flange 35 formed on a small plate preferably spot welded to the face of the plate 34 to provide therebetween a runway or slot shown as a whole at 36 to receive and guide the button-like device or stud3li. It is to be noted that the runways -33 and36 have constricted necks forming upper and lower tapered faces engaged by the tapered studs 29 and 30, and that the members 3| and 32 of one runway and the corresponding members 34a. and 35 'of the other runway, have outwardly flared bearing portions which are engaged by conical spring-pressed washers (see Fig. 4). From this construction it will be seen that when the arms 21 and 28 are swimg relatively to each other, the studs 29 and 30 will slide in the runways 33 and 36.
It is to be noted that the runways or retainer members 33 and 3B are in the present embodiment angularly related with respect to one another and that each of the runways has its own angularly related portions. The runway or retainer member 33 has a normally horizontally disposed straight guideway ortion 330. and an angularly disposed and curved portion 3317, these portions 33a and 33b merging and cooperating as one continuous guideway for the reception and travel of the stud 29. The runway or retainer member 36 also has angularly related portions, the forward or idle portion 96a. being angularly disposed with respect to the straight normally horizontally disposed portion 36b of the guideway, the portions 26a and 36b merging and being co-extensive with one another for the reception and travel of the arm carried stud 30. It is to be understood that when the stud 30 travels in the angular portion 36a. through the operation of arm 28. such travel does not afiect the position of the glass It other than to hold one side thereof in fully raised position or substantially so. In other words, the portion 38a is the idle portion of the rear or inner guideway 36.
Referring to Fig. 6, the operating mechanism is shown in full lines with the glass in fully closed or horizontal and angularly disposed portions of the guideways I2 and 29, respectively. The glass has been moved into this position from its lowered position by rotation, in a counterclockwise direction, of the handle. 29 which, through the pinion 2i and gears and 2, has caused the arms 21 and 28 to swing upwardly and inwardly toward one another, with their studs 2| and I9 travelling in the normally horizontal portions Ila and 29b, respectively. of the front and rear runway. If it is desired to produce the ventilating slot or opening 40 (Fig. 1) it is merely necessary to turn the handle 29 farther in a counter-clockwise direction, during which turning or rotation of the handle the stud 29 will travel upwardly in the portion 92b of the runway while at the same time the stud 20 is channel I! in the rear door pillar. when it is desired to lower the glass ll into its well in the door, the handle 2| is rotated in the opposite or clockwise direction which causes the arms 21 and 28-to move outwardly and downwardly away from one another, the initial travel of the studs 29 and 99 being in the portions 92b and 29a of the runways 33 and 38. respectively. While the stud 29 is travelling through the portion 92b the glass I8 is tilted or oscillated upwardly into closed position (see Fig. 6) while similar travel of the stud 39 in the idle portion 36a of the rear runway merely serves to support the glass during its tilting or oscillating movement. The studs 29 and 39 are now at the junctions of the angularly related portions of the runways. Further clockwise rotation of the handle causes the arms 21 and 28 to swing farther outwardly and downwardly, their respective studs 29 and 30 travelling in the horizontal portions 33a and 36b of the runways and lowering the glass, while remaining in its normal horizona acm 7 tal position, downwardly into the well. Din'ing its downward movement the vertical portion lid of the front edge of the glass is guided by the front felted channel l9 whereas the upper corner of the rear edge of the glass contacts the felted channel I! during its downward movement, the glass being thus guided against tilting during its descent into the well.
It if it is again desired to close the window opening, the handle 25 is rotated in a counterclockwise direction until the glass assumes its position of Fig. 6, with the window opening entirely closed. During the travel of the glass upwardly and downwardly to close and open the window opening, the lower edge of the glass is maintained in its normal or horizontal position. Upon reaching its uppermost or closed position, further counterclockwise rotation of the handle tilts or oscillates the glass downwardly at its forward edge to create the ventilating slot 40, as previously described. It will be seen that it is impossible to tilt the glass into ventilating position except when it is in its uppermost or closed position. Moreover, it-is impossible to lower the glass when in its tilted position, it being necessary to close the ventilating slot and return the glass to its normal horizontal position before it can be lowered into the well.
