ABSTRACT:
A windowpane guide structure in an automobile door assembly includes a windowpane drive mechanism for driving a windowpane up and down between closed and open positions, at least one guide rail member housed completely within the windowpane chamber defined between outer and inner door panels of the door assembly, and a slide member operatively interconnecting the windowpane and the guide rail member. The guide rail member is stationarily supported by the door assembly so as to extend substantially parallel to the direction of movement of the windowpane and is shaped and curved to permit the lower edge of the windowpane during the movement of the windowpane from the closed position towards the open position to progressively move generally straight downwards, slightly deflect towards the inner door panel and then deflect towards the outer door panel before the windowpane reaches the open position, i.e. to travel in a generally S-shaped trajectory.
