ROLLO ASSEMBLY
A rollo assembly intended for use in a roof system for a vehicle, comprises a rotatable winding shaft accommodated in a rollo housing. A rollo screen has a rear end which can be wound on or off the winding shaft to enable the rollo screen to move between an open and closed position. An opposite forward end of the rollo screen is provided with an operating beam to move the rollo screen between the open and closed position. Opposite guide channels hold opposite side edges of the rollo screen and guide them in a longitudinal direction. Each end portion of the guide channels adjacent to the rollo housing includes a lower wall part formed by a respective guide rail and an upper wall part formed by a guide part which belongs to or is fixed to the rollo housing.
BIDIRECTIONAL WINDOW SCREEN FOR A VEHICLE
The present disclosure relates to a bidirectional window screen for a vehicle, which can be independently deployed forward and backward, respectively, while moving in a longitudinal direction of a vehicle. The bidirectional window screen for the vehicle includes a guide having upper and lower ends installed on a frame and a roll screen wound around the inside of the guide to be withdrawn from the guide or stored in the guide, in which the guide is slidable in a longitudinal direction of a vehicle.
PROTECTION DEVICE FOR THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF A VEHICLE
A protection device for a vehicle interior compartment including a flexible planar structure displaceable between a pulled-out protective position and a rest position. The planar structure is connected to a dimensionally stable pull-out profile, which profile is mounted for longitudinal displacement on each of its opposite sides in a respective guiding structure fixed to the vehicle. A respective cable pull is installed in each guiding structure, each cable pull engaging on a respective one of sliding bodies slidingly mounted in the guiding structure. The sliding body is connected to the pull-out profile such that a torque introduced into the pull-out profile by the cable pull on the sliding body and a counter-torque introduced into the pull-out profile by the planar structure are configured, relative to a longitudinal axis of the pull-out profile extending transversely to the pull-out direction, such that the sliding bodies and the pull-out profile are held in equilibrium during a displacement move.
SUNSCREEN ASSEMBLY FOR AN OPEN ROOF CONSTRUCTION
Sunscreen assembly for an open roof construction in a vehicle of the type includes a flexible sunscreen having a center part and two opposed longitudinal edges connected to the center part and folding lines along which the longitudinal edges fold inwardly and whereby the center part of the flexible sunscreen comprises at least one layer of cloth. The sunscreen assembly further comprises a rotatable winding shaft configured to wind and unwind the sunscreen at a first one of its transversal edges, two opposed longitudinal guides configured to receive therein and guide corresponding ones of the inwardly folded longitudinal edges of the sunscreen, and wherein the folding lines are formed substantially by at least one respective incision made in the center part of the sunscreen along which the longitudinal edges are folded inwardly.
Sunshade assembly and open roof construction provided therewith
A sunshade assembly for use in a vehicle roof assembly comprises a flexible sunscreen having at least a central part and two opposed inwardly folded longitudinal edges connected to the central part by means of folding lines. A winding shaft for winding and unwinding the flexible sunscreen is provided at the trailing edge and an operating beam at the leading edge of the sunscreen. Two opposed longitudinal guides retain therein and guide corresponding ones of the folded longitudinal edges of the sunscreen. The guides are provided with locking members for engaging an outer end of the inwardly folded longitudinal edges for preventing these edges from moving out of the longitudinal guides when the sunscreen is at least partly unwound. The sunscreen includes at least two members which are each arranged substantially parallel to a respective longitudinal edge and which are buckle-stiff in a direction parallel to said longitudinal edge.
PROTECTION DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE INTERIOR COMPARTMENT
Protection device for a vehicle interior compartment including a flexible planar structure held on a roller blind shaft windable and unwindable between a pulled-out protective position and a compactly stored rest position. The planar structure is connected to a dimensionally stable pull-out profile on a face end region that is in front in the pull-out direction, which profile is guided for longitudinal displacement on each of its opposite sides in a respective guiding structure disposed fixed to the vehicle in the ready-for-use condition. At least one supporting structure is provided for rotatable bearing of the roller blind shaft, wherein the lateral guiding structures are connected to the supporting structure and are pivotably arranged on the supporting structure for an assembly position. Securing elements for releasable fixation of the guiding structures in their assembly position, pivoted towards the supporting structure, are provided on the supporting structure.
Sunroof seal apparatus and related sunroof assemblies for use with vehicles
A disclosed assembly includes a rail and an inner seal fixedly coupled to the rail that is arranged along a length of the rail. The inner seal includes a flap hiding a part of the rail adjacent the flap from view in a vehicle cabin. A shoe slidably coupled to the rail adjacent the flap is movable along the rail to open or close a sunshade held by the shoe. A channel extending through the shoe receives the flap. The shoe is engaged with a first segment of the flap folded in the channel while a second segment of the flap external to the channel is unfolded. Movement of the shoe causing the second segment to pass into the channel and fold therein as the first segment exits the channel and unfolds to prevent the part of the rail from being exposed.
OPEN ROOF CONSTRUCTION FOR A VEHICLE AND ROLLO ASSEMBLY FOR USE THEREIN
An open roof construction for a vehicle comprises a rollo assembly. The rollo assembly comprises a rollo screen and a winding shaft for the rollo screen which is rotatable around a stationary axis of rotation. The rollo screen firstly extends in a first direction, next around a reversal member and finally back in an opposite second direction and ends at a rollo screen edge which is attached to a stationary member. The rollo screen has two longitudinal edges which, when the rollo screen is wound off, are brought into engagement with holding members. The longitudinal edges of the rollo screen each comprise a hooking member insertable into a holding groove and hook behind a narrow entrance thereof. A reversal member is provided with a device acting on at least one of the hooking member and holding groove to enable the hooking member to enter and exit the holding groove.
Shading device for a transparent surface part of a motor vehicle
Shading device for a transparent surface part of a motor vehicle having a shading structure, two non-parallel lateral guide arrangements fixed with respect to the vehicle and flanking a displacement travel of the shading structure on opposite sides, and a pull-out profile which, at opposite face sides, is displaceable by in each case one guide carriage, lateral shading structure sections protruding, in a manner dependent on the displacement travel of the shading structure, into lateral receiving spaces fixed with respect to the vehicle and assigned to the guide arrangements. Each lateral guide arrangement and the associated receiving space are integrated in one housing structure fixed with respect to the vehicle and having a guide slot for the passage of the guide carriage from the pull-out profile to a drive device the guide slot running along the displacement travel of the shading structure and opening toward the latter.
SHADING DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE INTERIOR
Shading device for a vehicle interior including a flexible shading structure displaceable between a compactly stored rest position and a deployed shading position and which is provided with a pull-out profile on an end region. The pull-out profile has a central portion and on opposite end sides of the central portion has telescopic shiftable guiding portions which are displaceable in vehicle-related guidances. A shield is disposed on the central portion and is mounted to be movable relative to the central portion between a rest condition and a functional condition, and a forced control device is provided for displacement of the shield in at least one direction between the rest condition and the functional condition to displace the shield in response to a shifting movement of at least one guiding portion.
