Abstract
A support slide for window regulators of motor vehicles comprises a body formed, in a single piece of molded plastic material, by a plate portion and a lateral appendage. The plate portion constitutes a fixed jaw of a clamp for tightening a lower edge of a sliding window pane, and the lateral appendage has a sliding channel adapted to receive a guide rail. A movable jaw of the clamp cooperates with the fixed jaw to clamp the lower edge of the window pane. The shank of a screw for tightening the clamp is equipped with a spacer which is contained in a through-hole of the fixed jaw and which projects from the hole at least on the face of the plate portion which is turned towards the movable jaw to constitute an annular abutment surface.

A support slide for window regulators of motor vehicles, comprising:
- a body formed by a plate portion and a lateral appendage, in which the plate portion constitutes a fixed jaw of a tightening clamp for a lower edge of a sliding window pane and the lateral appendage has a sliding channel adapted to receive a guide rail,
- a movable jaw of the clamp, constituted by a shaped element cooperating with the fixed jaw to clamp the lower edge of the window pane, and
- a tightening screw for tightening the clamp, with a threaded shank which extends through a transverse through-hole in the plate portion and engages a threaded hole in the movable jaw, and with a head located on a face of the plate portion opposite to the face turned towards the movable jaw,
- wherein the body formed by the plate portion and the lateral appendage is constituted by a single injection-molded piece of a plastic material, and
- wherein the shank of the screw is equipped with a spacer which is contained in the through-hole and which projects from the hole at least on the face of the plate portion which is turned towards the movable jaw to constitute an annular abutment surface for the movable jaw.
