Sliding roof system for an automotive vehicle
Sliding roof system for an automotive vehicle with a movable roof part which is displaceable relative to a vehicle-fixed roof frame module between a closed position, a ventilation position and an open position, and with a drive system including at least one carrier profile for displacing the roof part. A control lever is provided with at least one support roller which is supported on a floor of the guide rail arrangement, and the floor of the guide rail arrangement includes a seat into which the support roller plunges when the latching cam is received in the latching recess.

METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR CONTROLLING A SUNROOF SHADE
Methods and systems are provided for controlling a sunshade associated with a sunroof system of a vehicle. In one embodiment, a method includes: determining, by a processor, a mode of the sunshade to be at least one of a linked mode and an unlinked mode; and selectively controlling, by a processor, a position of the sunshade based on one of a requested position of the sunshade and a requested position of a sunroof window, wherein the selectively is based on the mode.

Sliding roof system for an automotive vehicle
Sliding roof system for an automotive vehicle with a movable roof part, a fixed in location roof portion and an adjustment mechanism positioned within a guide track arrangement in order to displace the roof part between a closed position, a ventilation position and an open position below the roof portion. The adjustment mechanism includes a drive carriage driven by a drive system and a support profile fixedly connected to the roof part and operatively connected to the drive carriage by a slotted guide mechanism. The support profile, on the rear end region thereof, is articulated to a support lever, which lever is longitudinally displaceable within the guide track arrangement by a support carriage. Within the guide track arrangement a support recess is provided and fixed in location, in which a support element of the support lever is supported in response to a position of the support lever.
Arrangement comprising a cover for a vehicle roof
A cover for a vehicle roof, which can be raised in its rear region by deployment means in order to open the opening. The deployment means may have a cover having a front edge and a rear edge, which lies opposite the front edge. The deployment means may have a sliding carriage which can be displaced in a guide rail in the vehicle longitudinal direction by a drive. The deployment means may also have a deployment lever that has a front end region, a rear end region and a coupling element arranged between the front end region and rear end region. The deployment means may have a slotted guide carriage arranged to be displaceable in the guide rail in the vehicle longitudinal direction, and a control rod coupled to the sliding carriage and guided to be displaceable relative to the guide rail in the vehicle longitudinal direction.

GLAZED ROOF WITH A MOBILE PANEL CONTROLLED BY SHUTTLES
A glazed roof for a motor vehicle comprises a fixed part with an aperture and a panel that is movable relative to the fixed part, capable of closing off said aperture, the moving of said panel implementing two shuttles (11, 21) guided in translation respectively in two rails (12), means for fixed attachment/detachment to link or not link the movement of each of said shuttle with the movement of a driving cable (15). Said means of fixed attachment/detachment comprise a hooking element movable between a position of fixed attachment in which it forms an angle of 5 to 15 with the direction of said driving cable, an end portion of said hooking element cooperating with a complementary housing in said shuttle; and a detached position in which it extends appreciably in parallel to the direction of said driving cable, said end portion being moved out of said housing.
