A vehicle roof having a cover which is movably mounted on the vehicle roof by a bearing mechanism and is adjustable between a closed and a ventilation position in which at least the rear cover edge is raised, the cover being adjustable by the bearing mechanism in such a way that, in the closed position of the cover, the rear cover edge assumes a defined vertical position relative to a roof area portion which adjoins the roof opening or the cover in the region of the rear cover edge, wherein, according to the invention, the cover in its closed position rests on at least one supporting element which is held fixedly on the roof side in a position central with respect to the roof opening and below the rear cover edge and which supporting element holds the cover in its defined vertical position relative to the roof area portion.

Sunroof drive apparatus and related sunroof assemblies for use with vehicles are disclosed. A disclosed assembly includes a sunroof panel, a rail, a guide block attached to part of the rail, a bracket beneath the sunroof panel, a link in the rail removably connected to the guide block, and a drive shoe in the rail slidably coupled to the link. The drive shoe includes first and second slots to receive respective first and second pins of the link. The link can rotate about a rotation axis from a first orientation in which the link is inseparable from the guide block to a target orientation in which the link is separable from the guide block. When the first pin enters a locking area at an end of the first slot, the drive shoe imparts one or more loads on the first pin that urge the link into the target orientation.

An articulating roof top cover assembly for a vehicle adapted for sealing engagement with an existing portion of a hard top roof. The articulating roof top cover assembly includes an articulating portion incorporating at least a rotatable portion and slidable portion. The articulating portion is movable between at least a closed position adapted to close off the front vehicle compartment, an open sunroof position exposing the front driver/passenger compartment for an open air feel, and a further open position exposing the rear passenger compartment for an open air feel.

A vehicle includes a roof opening, a front window that is located forward from the roof opening, and a rear window that is located rearward from the roof opening. The vehicle also includes a first panel and a second panel. The first panel and the second panel obstruct the roof opening in a closed position and are movable to an open position in which the first panel is positioned adjacent to an exterior surface of the front window and the second panel is positioned adjacent to an exterior surface of the rear window.

The retractable tonneau cover for truck bed vehicles and similar, object of the present invention, comprises a mechanism box (100) provided with a winding stress shaft (10), and in the electric model, a drive axle (20) driven by an electric motor that enable the movement of opening and closing a retractable tonneau cover mat. The mechanism box is provided with an embodiment that improves the drainage system in order to prevent the accumulation of water inside it. In addition to the electrical model, the box (100) has a relief on its face that receives the control module with access from the outer portion, which improves accessibility and avoids the need to open the entire set, in case it needs maintenance, further having a management and activation system via Bluetooth and radio frequency.

An open roof construction for a vehicle comprises at least a movable lever to which, by means of a pin-like member, a slide shoe is connected that, for defining a movement of the movable lever, cooperates with and moves longitudinally along a guide. The pin-like member at a first end is connected to said lever and at a second end is connected to said slide shoe and the guide and slide shoe are provided with at least one pair of cooperating guide part and slide shoe part. The pin-like member at its second end is provided with an enlarged head configured to engage the slide shoe at a side thereof facing away from the lever. The dimensions of the enlarged head are such that, as seen in a direction from the enlarged head towards the lever, at least part of said enlarged head overlaps at least one guide part.
