ABSTRACT:
A bar (20, 120) includes a first end (22, 122), which is engageable with a window (12,112), and a second end (24, 124) which is engageable with a window guide (16) or another window (114), depending upon whether the bar is used with a single sliding window or two sliding windows. In one configuration (FIGS. 6-9), where both windows can slide, the second end (124) is engageable with a second of the windows. In another configuration (FIGS. 1-5), where only one window can slide, the second end (14) is engageable with a part of the vehicle, specifically, a window guide (16). It is also possible (FIG. 10) to use two bars (20) formed in the configuration where both windows can slide, by placing them respectively between the edges (112a, 114a) of windows (112, 114) and the window guides (116). To prevent sliding and opening of one or both windows and thereby to prevent unauthorized entry into the vehicles, an adjusting and locking connection ( 32,132) enables the ends (22, 122; 24, 124) to move towards and away from each other, to properly position the bar or bars with respect to the windows and/or the window guides, and then to permit their ends and the window or windows to be locked in a fixed spaced relationship with each other.
