摘要: A support mechanism for an open-roof assembly, comprising a moveable panel, comprises at least one of a front flexible portion and a rear flexible portion. A guide assembly of the open-roof assembly comprises an elongated guide rail extending in a longitudinal direction, a front mechanism slideably arranged in the guide rail and a rear mechanism arranged in the guide rail. The front mechanism and the rear mechanism are provided with means for providing a relatively high mechanism stiffness, while the at least one of the front and rear flexible portions is provided with a relatively low bending stiffness in the width direction and with a relatively low rotational stiffness in respective main directions such that orientation deviations between the panel support assembly and the guide assembly result in larger rotational deformation in the at least one of the respective flexible portions than in the respective mechanisms.

摘要: A roof assembly for a vehicle having an opening comprises a frame having two parallel longitudinal beams connected to a transverse beam. A drive system for a panel supports and moves the panel and includes a motor attached to the transverse beam, two substantially parallel guide rails attached to the longitudinal beams, and a support mechanism movably guided in the guide rails and operatively connected to the motor. The frame and the drive system as a unit are adapted to each other such that the drive system is partly inserted into the frame between the longitudinal beams and rotated such that the motor is on the lower side of the transverse beam of the frame and the guide rails at least partly positioned on a portion of the upper side of the longitudinal beams of the frame. There is also disclosed a method of assembling the roof assembly.

摘要: A wind deflector assembly for use in an open roof construction for a vehicle includes an upper elongate element which is movably connected to a stationary part and a flexible wind deflecting material that extends at least along the front of the roof opening, being attached at a lower end to the stationary part and at an upper end to the upper elongate element to keep the wind deflecting material taut in at least the effective position. The wind deflecting material is folded at the upper end in a folded part, said folded part having a hinge part and an opposite first outer end part and wherein the folded part is mounted inside a first cavity whereby the first outer end part is being supported on the upper surface of the protruding part in the first cavity at least when the wind deflector assembly is in an effective position.

摘要: Open roof construction for a vehicle comprises a roof opening in a stationary roof part, a panel which by an operating mechanism is movable between a closed position in which it closes the roof opening and an open position in which the panel is moved rearwards to a position at least partially above a part of the stationary roof part behind the roof opening. The operating mechanism comprises a rear moving assembly for guiding and supporting the panel. The open roof construction further comprises seals that are positioned in the roof opening in the region of roof opening edges and which are intended for cooperation with the panel, wherein the rear moving assembly is constructed such that, in the open position of the panel, part of it has come into engagement with the seal that is positioned in the roof opening in the region of the rearward roof opening edge.

摘要: A rollo assembly comprises a flexible rollo screen, a rotatable winding shaft to which a first end of the rollo screen is attached for being wound on or off said winding shaft and two opposite longitudinal guides extending in a longitudinal direction perpendicularly to the winding shaft for guiding opposite sides of the rollo screen. The rollo screen further is provided with longitudinally spaced elongate stiffeners extending substantially in a transverse direction in parallel to the winding shaft between the opposite sides of the rollo screen and attached to the flexible rollo screen, which stiffeners are biased for assuming a curved shape in said transverse direction. Each stiffener comprises two stiffener parts which comprise facing edges and wherein each stiffener further comprises a hinge member extending in said transverse direction and joining said facing edges.

摘要: An open roof construction for a vehicle having an opening in the fixed roof includes an operating mechanism for a closure element and comprises a driving slide, slidably guided in the guide rail, a front support attached to the closure element, a support lever having a front end and a rear end and which is slidably connected to a panel track of the closure element by a rear sliding member. The support lever is in engagement with said rear guide track by a middle sliding member. The driving slide is configured to drive the support lever at least along part of path of movement of the closure element. The support lever is constructed such that, in an open position of the closure element, the rear sliding member at the rear end of the support lever extends above the fixed roof behind the roof opening.

摘要: A sliding support arrangement for supporting a slidable element in a closure of a roof assembly for a vehicle with respect to mutually orthogonal X, Y and Z directions, comprising at least a guide rail extending substantially in the X-direction. The slidable element carries a slide shoe engaging the guide rail and supporting the slidable element at least in the Z-direction. The slide shoe includes a first part fixed to the slidable element and a relatively movable second part. The second part is supported by the first part mainly through a spring urging the slide shoe parts in engagement with walls of the guide rail. The spring exerts a force which is directed at a non-perpendicular angle to at least one wall of the guide rail.

摘要: A sunshade assembly includes a flexible sunscreen and two opposed longitudinal guides for guiding longitudinal edges of the sunscreen. A rotatable winding shaft winds and unwinds the sunscreen. An operating beam is connected to the opposite transversal edge of the sunscreen. Two drive cables are connected to opposite ends of the operating beam. Two positioning members move with the operating beam. Each positioning member extends into a corresponding one of the opposed longitudinal guides. Each of the opposed longitudinal edges of the sunscreen near the opposite transversal edge is provided with a wing folded inward in a direction away from the respective positioning member, so that the wing and the respective positioning member are on opposite sides of the sunscreen. The wing accessible to the respective positioning member from the opposite side of the flexible sunscreen in order to engage the respective positioning member.

摘要: A roof assembly for a vehicle comprises a stationary part for attaching the roof assembly to the vehicle's fixed roof. At least one closing element is movably supported by the stationary part and is capable of moving between a closed position within the roof opening and an open position in which the rear of the closing element is raised and the closing element is moved rearwardly. The closing element is provided with at least a retaining hook configured to hook behind a locking device on the stationary part in the closed position of the closing element to provide a mechanical lock for the closing element in upward direction.The locking device is movable between a locking position and an unlocking position. The closing element is configured to actuate the locking device to move from the unlocked to the locked position when the closing element is moved to the closed position.
