A motor mounting for mounting a D.C. motor in an automobile body structure comprises a casing for the motor. The casing is constituted by a pair of casing halves and one of the casing halves is an integral part of the automobile body structure.
An electric door window assembly incorporating two glass plates of different properties in which the desired one or both plates can be selectively raised. A pair of frames are fixedly mounted on the car door. Two pinions are engaged to and driven by a worm wheel which is in mesh with a motor driven worm. The pinions, each of which engages a toothed element to raise or lower a movable support rail with a glass plate mounted on it, are rotatable by the worm wheel through a pair of clutches, with each clutch being disposed between the worm wheel and a corresponding pinion, and selectively electromagnetically actuated to permit the worm wheel to drive the corresponding pinion in order to raise or lower the desired glass plate.
A mounting bracket for mounting a window regulator motor housing with three holes to a door panel having three holes aligned with the holes in the power regulator motor and three slots. The mounting bracket has three legs projecting radially outward from a central portion. Each leg has an arm that depends toward the door panel carrying a tab with a ramp surface for engaging the door panel for flexing the tab as tab is inserted in a normal direction to the panel through the slot of the door panel. Each tab has a shoulder for engaging the door panel upon the tab flexing back after insertion of the tab into the slot so that the bracket is secured to the door panel. The central portion engages the motor housing for sandwiching the motor housing between the mounting bracket and the door panel so that the motor housing is mounted to the door panel. Three locator pins depending through the holes in the motor housing and the aligned holes in the door panel prevent rotation of the motor housing in relation to the door panel. The legs of the mounting bracket are equally spaced radially about the central portion.
In a hand-held machine tool, a housing formed of two shells accommodates an electric motor, a motor bearing assembly and electric structural components. A brush-side motor bearing includes a bearing support which carries thereon the electric structural components, such as carbon brush holders, chokes for spark quenching, an inductive receiver and light-emitting diodes. The bearing support can be preassembled with these structural components outside the housing and inserted into one of the housing shells.
A vehicle door module, comprising a panel fitted with various items of equipment including a window lifter of the type having two rails for guiding runners supporting the window and having cables for driving the runners, the window lifter likewise possessing a drum which is disposed in a cover and on which the cables are wound. An element for fixing the cover to the panel, and for controlling the rotation of the drum are disposed on a side of the panel opposite the side on which the rails, the cables, the cover and the drum are positioned; the cover of the of the drum is molded integrally with the panel and controlling the drum are fixed in a leaktight manner to the panel and to the cover. The integration of the cover into the supporting panel reduces the number of pieces in the module and makes it possible to obtain greater integration, while ensuring the necessary seal between the two faces of the panel at the location of the fixing elements for driving the drum in rotation.
Motor/gear unit for adjustment devices in motor vehicles with a base plate 2 supporting the motor/gear unit and able to fit in an opening 10 of a wall 1 separating a wet space A from a dry space B. The output 5 of gear is mounted on the wet space side A and at least the elements for the electrical contact of the electric motor 6 and where applicable a switch and/or an electronic control device 7 are mounted on the dry space side B. A seal 3 enclosing the opening 10 is mounted between the wall 1 and the base plate 2. The base plate 2 forms one unit at least with a part of the gear housing 20 and is mounted on the wall 1 from the wet space side A.
