Abstract

A stabilizer system for an automobile door glass or window component comprises a support platform and a slide mechanism slidable thereon. The slide mechanism has a contact member mounted thereon which is adapted to engage the door glass or window component and exert a predetermined amount of pressure thereon so as to render the same stable during operation of the motor vehicle. Detent latching members are provided upon the support platform and slide mechanism so as to permit predetermined adjustment of the slide mechanism with respect to the support platform, and the support platform and slide mechanism have guide rails, frames, and grooves which permit the slide mechanism to be adjustably moved only in the horizontal direction with respect to the support platform. In this manner, since vertical movement of the slide mechanism is effectively precluded, the slide mechanism, and the contact member carried thereby for engaging the door glass or window component, cannot be carried or dragged along with the door glass or window component as the latter undergoes its upward and downward movements, and consequently, positional adjustment of the slide mechanism with respect to the support p…
