An automation assembly is adapted to be connected to a door system of a motor vehicle. The automation assembly is modular and includes a frame that is fixedly secured to the motor vehicle. A motor is fixedly secured to the frame and adapted to receive power. The motor converts the power into a rotational output force. The motor includes a non-ferrous core. A set of pulleys and rollers are fixedly secured to the frame at predetermined positions to direct the path of a continuous belt. The continuous belt is fixedly secured to the door system such that the motor moves the continuous belt and the door system bidirectionally between an open position and a closed position. Sensors are used to determine the position of the door, the speed thereof and whether the door is being moved manually.

A door glass raising and falling apparatus has a carrier plate 71 mounted onto a door glass 70. The door glass 70 is movable along sashes 41, 42 disposed on a door. The carrier plate 71 includes securing portions that are fixed to moving portions 67a, 67b of a wire-rope body 67. The carrier plate 71 also has a glass support portion 74 for supporting the door glass 70, and a pair of front and rear glass fixing portions 77, 78 each including a screw member 75. The door glass 70 has mounting holes supported by the glass fixing portions 77, 78, respectively. The dimension of the mounting holes is larger than the outside diameter of the shaft portion of each of the screw members 75 so that the door glass 70 is moveable with respect to the carrier plate 71. Also, a wire-rope body 150 extends over a plurality of pulleys. Some of the pulleys 142, 143 are rotatably mounted on frame members 136, 137 by pulley shafts 182 respectively. stoppers 184 are mounted on the pulley shafts 182, to limit the falling distance of the glass rising and falling body 162.
Abstract:
The door glass raising and falling apparatus comprises a carrier plate 71 to be mounted onto the lower end portion 70b of a door glass 70. The door glass 70 is capable of rising and falling along sashes 41, 42 respectively disposed in the front and rear portions of a door. The carrier plate 71 extends in the back-and-forth direction of the door glass 70 along the lower end of the door glass 70 and includes securing portions respectively formed in the given portions of the carrier plate 71, while the moving portions 67a, 67b of a wire-rope body 67 can be respectively fixed to the securing portions of the carrier plate 71. The carrier plate 71 further comprises a glass support portion 74 for supporting the middle portion of the lower end of the door glass 70 in the back-and-forth direction thereof, and a pair of front and rear glass fixing portions 77, 78 each including a screw member 75. In the door glass 70, there are formed mounting holes which can be supported by the glass fixing portions 77, 78, respectively. The dimension of each of the mounting holes is set sufficiently larger than the outside diameter of the shaft portion of each of the screw members 75 so that, when the screw members 75 are loosened, the door glass 70 can be moved with respect to the carrier plate 71. Also, the door glass raising and falling apparatus further comprises a wire-rope body 150 for raising and falling a glass rising and falling body 162. The wire-rope body 150 is wired over and between a plurality of pulleys. Of these pulleys, pulleys 142, 143, which are situated on the lower side, are rotatably mounted on frame members 136, 137 by pulley shafts 182 respectively. Rubber stoppers 184 are mounted on the pulley shafts 182, respectively. The rubber stoppers 184 are structured such that, when the glass rising and falling body 162 reaches its falling limit, the lower end face of the glass rising and falling body 162 can be contacted with the rubber stoppers 184.

Abstract:
A cable deflection pulley pertaining to a window lifter comprising a drive unit, a guide rail for a driver which is connected to the window and to the cable, and cable deflection pulleys with a guide or bearing groove for the cable. The device has an axially directed assembly groove in the proximity of the bearing groove to facilitate and accelerate assembly and to reduce the amount of cable required. The assembly groove contains an area adjacent to the axis of the cable deflection pulley, and an area adjacent to the bearing groove, through which the cable is pulled from the assembly groove into the bearing groove.
Abstract:
In a system for automatically opening or closing a sliding door or the like for a vehicle, an undesired clamping of an object between the door and the vehicle body, resulting in increased tension force in the wire moving the door, is sent early and relieved quickly. The wire (4) is solidly secured to the sliding door and wound onto a drum (10) to open or close the door by a motor driving the drum, and two tensioners (11a and 11b) are provided respectively on opposite sides of the drum and between the drum and door. Each sensor has a movable part (19) positioned in accordance with the tension force in the wire passing through the tensioner, sensor plates (20) are provided on the movable parts of the tensioners, and magnetic sensors (21) are provided to detect the moving speeds of the plates. When the moving speeds of the plates are larger than a predetermined value, preset in advance, in cases other than when the door is at a fully closed or fully opened condition, a controller concludes that some object has been clamped between the door and the vehicle body and immediately relieves such clamping.
