Abstract

The window in a door of an automotive vehicle is lifted by an operating lever pivotally mounted on a supporting structure in the door which includes a releasably mounted carrier member of sheet metal. The weight of the window is partly balanced by a spiral spring one of whose ends is attached to the lever. The other end is secured in a gap between two integral lugs of the carrier member which are offset at right angles from the major face of the carrier member.
