This disclosure deals with a window regulator assembly as a unit such as for vehicles and specifically vehicle doors, which doors have rigid frames so that the assembly may be installed in any type or shape of door, and the three parts of this assembly that are attached to any adjacent panel in the door after the door or wall in which it is to be installed has already been assembled. This assembly comprises a flexible plastic tape which may be twisted and bent in any direction, the opposite ends of which tape are wrapped around reversible motor or manually-driven drums so that as one end is wrapped, the other is unwrapped, and vice versa. These drums comprise the driving part of this assembly that is attached to a door. The tape also has a substantially straight vertical reach intermediate its ends, the length of which reach may be fixed by the length of a flexible plastic strip along this reach of the tape. This vertical reach of tape or strip has guides at its ends that comprise the two other parts of this assembly, which guides preferably surround the tape to insure the assembly as a unit. These two guide parts are attached to the door and are for changing the direction of the tape to extend toward the drums. A crimping and clamping device is attached to the straight vertical reach of the tape and to a carrier for the window that is to be opened and closed or regulated by the reciprocation of this vertical reach of tape. The tension in the tape is maintained by resiliently supported rollers in contact with the tape away from this substantially straight reach, which rollers may be mounted on the driving part or on a fourth part of this unitary assembly that also is separately attached to a door.

A window regulator assembly for windows guided in walls along arcuate paths, said assembly comprising: (a) a flexible tape having two ends and a substantially straight continuous reach, (b) means for connecting said reach to a window, (c) a flexible plastic strip along said reach having means at its ends for guiding and changing the direction of said tape, (d) drum means attached to said ends of said tape so that rotation of said drum wraps one end of said tape while unwrapping the other end, and vice versa, (e) means for reversibly rotating said drum for reciprocating said reach of tape to open and close said window in said wall, (f) means apart from said reach for maintaining tension in said tape, and (g) means for separately attaching said drum and the ends of said strip in said wall.
