Abstract

A window opener for a remote open-and-close operation of a quater window of an automobile or the like comprises an actuating device, a driving device and pull-cables as a power transmitting member so that freedom of cable-arrangement is widened and large cabin space is remained in an automobile. The actuating device has a pulley, a rotary shaft connected to the pulley, and a link mechanism for converting a rotational torque of the rotary shaft into an opening-and-closing force for a wing member of a window. The pull cables are connected with the pulley so that reciprocal pull-operation through the driving device causes reciprocal rotation of the pulley.
