ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle has a body, electrical devices including a controller and a power supply mounted in the body, a door slidable on the body between a closed position and an open position, and electrical devices mounted in the door. The devices in the body and in the door are interconnected by an electrical-cable connecting system that has a nonrotatable pivot pin fixed on the body adjacent the door, a drum rotatable about the pin, and a flexible multiconductor electrical cable wound in the closed position of the door about the drum and having an inner end fixed to the pin and connected to the devices mounted in the body and an outer end fixed to the door and connected to the devices mounted in the door. A winder connected between the body and the drum rotatably biases the drum to rotate in a direction winding the cable onto the drum and urging the door into the closed position.
