ABSTRACT:
A power window system for a motor vehicle operated by a linear electric motor. In one form, a dual linear motor window actuator system includes left and right guidetracks which guide a window, and left and right linear motors connected to the guidetracks. In a second form, a single linear motor window actuator system includes left and right guidetracks which guide a window; a drive bar connected to the window; and a linear motor operatively interconnected with the drive bar. A solenoid operated window stop provides fixed positioning of the window except during actuation of the linear motor.
