Abstract

A device for the driving of sliding panels, especially horizontally-sliding windows in an automobile, including a crank driving a command part which transmits its movement to several panels sliding in their plane, one relative to the other and in a predetermined direction, characterized by the fact that the transmission of movement is achieved by cables and pinions, and the command part is a plate having one or more grooved sections cogged and concentric, forming alternate racks with partial cogs which can drive a receiver pinion whose simultaneous or successive rotations in the same direction or in opposite directions for a predetermined rotation direction of the crank allow the panels to be driven relatively, according to the same operational sequence, predetermined by the configuration of the cogged sections.
