A roof module for forming a vehicle roof on a motor vehicle, the roof module having a panel component which at least partially forms a roof skin of the vehicle roof, the roof skin serving as an outer sealing surface of the roof module, at least one environment sensor configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals through a roof see-through area to detect a vehicle environment, and a cooling mechanism having a cooling-air inlet, a filter member and at least one cooling channel, the cooling mechanism being configured to dissipate waste heat emitted by the environment sensor and/or ambient heat introduced from outside from the environment sensor. The filter member has a conical and/or pot-shaped shape and is provided at the cooling-air inlet and is configured to prevent and/or reduce an entry of foreign particles and/or liquid into an interior of the at least one cooling channel.

A passenger transport vehicle includes: a body; and a roof on which a drainage gutter and a drainage hole are formed, the roof being supported above the body and including an upper surface and a lower surface, the drainage gutter including a front portion in front of a center of the upper surface in a forward and backward direction, the drainage hole being formed on the front portion to reach the lower surface from a bottom of the drainage gutter.

A mounting bracket system for a vehicle roof, and a method for its attachment to a vehicle having a side rail including a drip well, is contemplated in which no drilling of holes or other permanent modifications to the vehicle roof is required, and in which each individual mounting bracket may be independently fixed in place without requiring any structural support from interconnections with any other mounting bracket via crossbars or other interconnections. In this regard, a number of problems associated with prior mounting bracket systems may be overcome.

A vehicle rear portion structure includes an upper back and an upper back reinforcement. The upper back reinforcement is made of a material different from the upper back and is provided to extend in a vehicle width direction on an upper side of a rear portion of the upper back in a vehicle front-rear direction. The upper back reinforcement includes a front flange, a rear flange, a bulging portion, and a luggage opening flange. Luggage weather rubber is attached to the luggage opening flange. The upper back is joined to the rear flange of the upper back reinforcement at a rear end portion of the upper back in the vehicle front-rear direction by any of caulking joining, bolt joining, and rivet joining. A rear side joining portion is covered with the luggage weather rubber.

A roof system for a motor vehicle including a support frame which supports at least one roof element, and drainage system which has at least one water gutter. The water gutter is provided at least over part of its length with a plurality of anti-surge bodies which are spaced apart from one another in the longitudinal direction of the water gutter, are each extended over a partial region of a width and/or a height of the water gutter and leave free at least a partial portion of a base of the water gutter.

An embedded roof rail mounting system for a motor vehicle, including a roof rail mount operably coupled to a vehicle body, the roof rail mount including a flanged head defining a recess shaped and sized to accommodate a portion of a roof rail, and a flip seal constructed of a resilient material configured to conceal the roof rail mount below an exterior surface of the motor vehicle.

A golf car canopy extension panel that is connectable to a canopy main panel, wherein the extension panel comprises a first extension longitudinal water channel that is fluidly connectable to a first main longitudinal water channel main panel, and a second extension longitudinal water channel that is fluidly connectable to a second main longitudinal water channel of the main panel, wherein the first and second extension longitudinal water channels each comprise a termination end structured and operable to direct water to exit the respective extension longitudinal water channel at an end of a sidewall of the respective extension longitudinal water channel.
