A sliding member that moves along a guide rail holding the window pane lower edge and has a transverse adjustment threaded element transversely received into the sliding member within a threaded hole thereof causing the position of the window pane to be adjusted in one substantially perpendicular direction thereto; a fastening screw transversely inserted into the sliding member within a further hold thereof passing through a slot in the window pane and inserted into the sliding member allowing the position of said window pane to be adjusted in one substantially horizontal direction; and a vertical adjustment threaded element threadingly received into a body formed integrally with the sliding member, allowing the window pane to be adjusted in one substantially vertical direction.
1- Sliding member (1) for power window devices in motor vehicles adapted for being moved along a guide rail (2) including, at least at one of their ends, one end stop member (3) for said sliding member (1), said sliding member (1) being associated with the lower edge (4a) of a window pane (4) of the motor vehicle and being provided with means for adjusting its relative position, characterized in that said means for adjusting the position of the sliding member (1) comprise:
2- Sliding member (1) for power window devices in motor vehicles as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that it comprises a torsion spring arranged surrounding the end of at least said first transverse adjustment threaded element (5).
3- Sliding member (1) for power window devices in motor vehicles as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that it further comprises a plate (8) inserted into said sliding member (1) in contact with said resilient inner surface (7) which has a U-shaped cross-section end area (10) for holding the lower edge (4a) of the window pane (4), the inner end (6) of said first transverse adjustment threaded element (5) acting on the resilient inner surface (7) of the sliding member (1) through said plate (8) and said plate (8) having a hole so that said fastening screw (11) of the window pane (4) passes therethrough.
