Shading apparatus having a carrier frame on which a roller blind shaft, with a flexible roller blind web, is rotatably supported. A guiding profile arrangement laterally guides the roller blind web, and opposing lateral edges of the roller blind web are each provided with a lateral guiding strip guided in the region of each guiding profile arrangement such that, in a partially extended operating position of the roller blind web, a tension is applied to the roller blind web transversely relative to the extension direction of the roller blind web. Adjacent to an end-face bearing of the roller blind shaft, there is provided at both sides a support guide for moving the respective lateral guiding strip into a channel portion of the guiding profile arrangement positioned between the end-face bearing and an open end-face region of the channel portion of the guiding profile arrangement.

A multi-functional retractable JEEP® top includes a support frame affixed to a top opening of an existing JEEP®, a top layer deployment section selectively biased between wound and unwound positions, a bottom layer deployment section disposed subjacent to the top layer deployment section and independently biased between wound and unwound positions, a controller for manipulating the top layer deployment section and the bottom layer deployment section upon receiving a user input, and a power source communicatively coupled to the controller. Each of the top layer deployment section and the bottom layer deployment section span across at least one portion of the top opening of the existing JEEP®.

A roof panel assembly for use in a roof of a vehicle comprises at least one roof panel, providing a first interior surface configured to be directed to an interior space of the vehicle and a second interior surface configured to be directed to the interior space of the vehicle. The roof panel assembly further comprises a support beam arranged between the first interior surface and the second interior surface and a projector device arranged on the support beam. The projector device is configured to project a light image on at least one of the first interior surface and the second interior surface.

The present disclosure discloses a roller blind side sliding rail device of a strip lamp, the roller blind side sliding rail device of the strip lamp of the present disclosure cooperates with a new material lampshade after an irradiation direction of an LED lamp is deflected, thus achieving better light transmission, and light is clearly visible from a distance.

The present invention relates to a roller blind system for a vehicle roof, comprising two roller blind assemblies, wherein he roller blind web of the first roller blind assembly is designed to be longer in the extension direction than the roller blind web of the second roller blind assembly. At least one compression-resistant drive cable is provided, a first section of which is firmly attached to a pulling hoop of the first roller blind assembly and a second section of which can be detachably engaged with a pulling hoop of the second roller blind assembly. According to the invention, a locking mechanism is provided, which has an elastically deformable clip-on connection, by means of which the second section of the drive cable can be detachably engaged with the pulling hoop of the second roller blind assembly.

The invention relates to a device (12) for ventilating the interior of a motor vehicle, preferably a rooflight device, for a motor vehicle. The device (12) has a frame (16) with a ventilation opening (44), a first rotating element (28) for rolling up and rolling down a first roller blind (30), and a second rotating element (32) for rolling up and rolling down a second roller blind (34). The first rotating element (28) and the second rotating element (32) lie at least partially overlappingly on the same side in relation to the ventilation opening (44) and in relation to a vertical axis. The device (12) can thus preferably be designed with a particularly shallow depth in order not to restrict the headroom.

A winding shaft bearing of a winding shaft for a vehicle roller blind having a roller blind web, wherein the winding shaft bearing has a guide unit which guides a roller blind edge strip of the unwound roller blind web to a guide rail adjoining the winding shaft bearing. According to the invention: the guide unit has a guide front portion facing the winding shaft and a guide main portion facing the guide rail; a guide contact surface of the guide main portion guiding the roller blind edge strip to the guide rail is elevated with respect to a guide contact surface of the guide front portion guiding the roller blind edge strip from or to the winding shaft; and the winding shaft bearing is formed integrally with the guide front portion and the guide main portion of the guide unit as a plastic injection-moulded part in an injection-moulding tool.

A vehicle apparatus configured to selectively position and enclose an opening formed in at least one panel of a vehicle includes a sliding panel and a positioning mechanism. The sliding panel includes an electrical device in communication with a control circuit of the vehicle and the positioning mechanism is configured to slidably position the sliding panel along a positioning track between an open position and a closed position. A control connection is configured to transmit control signals between the control circuit of the vehicle and the electrical device. The control connection extends from a portion of the vehicle to a connection interface of the electrical device, and the connection apparatus is configured to communicate a control signal to adjust an operating state of the electrical device in both the open position and the closed position.

Protection device for a motor vehicle interior having a flexible planar structure which, between a deployed protective position and a compact deposited resting position, is displaceable along an extraction direction so as to be guided by guide rails that lie opposite one another so as to be transverse to the extraction direction. At least one guide tape is disposed on a lateral peripheral region of the flexible planar structure and is at least indirectly connected to the flexible planar structure. The flexible planar structure via the guide tape, is held on one of the guide rails. A functional assembly is provided, which is elastically elongatable at least in the transverse direction and via which the flexible planar structure and the guide tape are mechanically connected to one another in an electrically conductive manner. The electrical connection is for supplying power to an electrical consumer.

A shading device for a vehicle roof includes at least one shading length that can be rolled up for shading a light-permeable and/or open area of the vehicle roof, a tension bow that is movably mounted in a direction of travel (V), to which the shading length-is fastened, a drive mechanism that can be operated by a drive motor to move the tension and a control unit for activating the drive motor. The shading device includes at least one opposing force element for restricting a traveling movement of the tension bow, and the control unit is designed to activate the drive motor based on an opposing force when the tension bow reaches an end position (P1, P2) defined by the stop element.
