Abstract

A device for compensating cable play within a cable window-lifter, including a cable including at least one section with a Bowden, the device including a cable-guiding element configured to receive an end of the Bowden, mounted in an axially displaceable manner in a receptacle, the device including a spring arranged between a supporting surface of the receptacle and a head of the cable-guiding element, configured to keep the cable under tension and thereby compensating cable play, where stop surfaces are provided on the cable-guiding element and on the receptacle, which can engage with each other during the loading of the cable and thereby stop further compensation of the spring, and where an elastic material damping the stop noises is arranged between the stops.
