SUNROOF DEVICE

In a sunroof device, each support member and each driving shoe include a pressing portion and an elastic body, respectively, that, when the driving shoe moves from a first position toward a second position, come close to each other and, when the driving shoe is positioned between the second position and a third position, come into contact with each other. When the driving shoe is positioned between the second position and the third position, the pressing portion presses the elastic body in a direction perpendicular to a width direction. A length in the width direction of the elastic body is longer than the pressing portion.

Structure of electric sunshade and sunroof

A structure of an electric sunshade and a sunroof may include glass sleds which both open and close a sunroof glass by sliding in a longitudinal direction along mechanism rails disposed at both sides of a roof panel of a vehicle, wherein a front sled and a rear sled are rotatably coupled to both end portions of each of glass sleds, respectively, main cable devices which are connected to a driving motor by a cable, and movable along the mechanism rails, and separately include a cable protrusion slidably accommodated in glass grooves formed in lateral surfaces of the front sled, the rear sled, and the glass sled, and sunshade sleds which are selectively coupled to the main cable devices, and slide to open or close the sunshade.
