Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 197 words
A device for the connection of a flexible cable, of a cable window lifter rigid to push and pull movably guided in a guiding tube provided with a longitudinal slot, to a sliding or rolling carriage itself guided on a central guide bar, whereby the guide bar and the guiding tube are combined to form a unit, said sliding or rolling carriage being connected to a movable window pane, especially a window pane which can be lowered into the body of a motor vehicle, characterized by the fact that an opening 28 is provided in said carriage 7 connected to the window pane 2, an engaging piece secured to the cable and having a flange 21 extending through the opening 28, a moulded member 22 rigidly mounted on the flange 21, said moulded member having a transfer portion extending through the opening 28 dimensioned to have play at right angles to the cable but little clearance in the direction of the cable and a flange portion 29 which projects beyond the ends of the transfer portion and overlies the end edges of the opening whereby said connecting device compensates for slight misalignments in the cable window lifter.
Claim 2
