Abstract

In a pane guide for a sliding window capable of being lowered into the window shaft (8) of an automobile, the windowpane (1) is laterally guided on windowframe components (4,5), in which back-cut guide channels (18,18') are provided, in which slide elements (23,23') are displaceably guided. The slide elements are connected with the windowpane (1), covering the windowframe components on the outer side of the vehicle, by carrier elements (19 to 22). Due to the mounting of the windowpane outside the windowframe, a projectionless lateral glazing of an automobile is made possible. At the lower end of at least one of the lateral windowframe components (4,5), the guide tube (11, 11') of a cable/tube window winder is connected in alignment with the guide channel (18, 18'). The threaded cable (12, 12') of the window winder extends into the guide channel (18, 18') and is fixed at least to one of the slide elements (19 to 22) situated therein. In this manner a low overall height of the windowshaft is achieved, so that the windowpane and the window shaft can have approximately the same height. With the windowpane (1) is associated a seal (46) disposed on the windowframe (4 to 7), which seal is…
