A top for a convertible vehicle having a foldable top cover and a top linkage for deploying the top cover, the top linkage being displaceable between a closed position and a storage position, the top linkage having a link assembly on either side of the top, each link assembly being pivotably mounted on a vehicle-attached main bearing and having a tension rod assembly hinged to a tension bow which extends between the bilaterally disposed link assemblies and limits the top cover at its rear edge in the closed position, and the top having a headliner assembly having a foldable headliner fabric and forming an inner visible surface of the top in the closed position. The headliner assembly may have a guide link on either side of the top, each guide link being hinged to the respective tension rod assembly, and the headliner fabric being in contact with each guide link.

A soft top assembly for SUV/UTV vehicles having connected thereto at least one lighting source, such as a fixed light emitting diode lighting device, a rope/flexible light emitting diode lighting device, a solid fiber optic lighting device, to illuminate the interior of the vehicle. The lighting device has at least one water resistant housing that is low profile. The lighting device is also shock resistant. The lighting device has a predetermined ON/OFF feature and at least one power source is provided such as battery powered, powered by replaceable/rechargeable batteries, via connection to the vehicle by a wired harness or electrical contacts, or solar powered.

An articulating slanted back soft top assembly for 4-door and 2-door SUVs. A fabric cover is supported by a frame that is at least partially articulatable from at least a closed position to at least one open air position. The frame includes at least one forward fabric support bow member and at least one rearward fabric support bow member. The rear fabric support bow member being positioned when in the closed position in a manner which allows the fabric to clear a sport bar or “roll bar” member of a vehicle in the closed position such that a rear portion of the top is angled from the vertical when viewing the vehicle from the side.

A soft top assembly which includes lift assist and improved fabric management. The assembly includes front side rails pivotally connected to rear side rails. A plurality of fabric control bows with control linkages provide fabric control to the top material during pivoting of the front side rails. A first and second gas strut are attached to the rear side rails to assist lifting and controlled motion as the top is moved between a closed position and open sunroof position, as one strut is fully loaded and compressed while the other strut is fully loaded and open, for lift assist and dampening.

The invention relates to a convertible top cloth, including an outer top cloth, an inner roof lining, an insulating layer which is arranged between the outer top cloth and the inner roof lining, and at least one absorbent film which is accommodated between the outer top cloth and the inner roof lining, is a plastic film produced at least from polyester and is provided on the insulating layer adjacent to the inner roof lining.

A quarter window assembly for a soft top cover assembly that is removable. The quarter window assembly is connectable to the soft cover assembly. The quarter window assembly has a hard corner assembly mountable to features connected to a vehicle. The hard corner assembly is an injection molded plastic assembly. The quarter window assembly also has a panel carrying at least one window, and the panel is secured to the hard corner assembly.

A retractable sliding/folding slanted back soft top assembly for 4-door and 2-door SUVs. A fabric cover is supported by a frame that is at least partially articulatable from at least a closed position to an open air position. The frame includes at least one forward fabric support bow member and at least one rearward fabric support bow member. The rear fabric support bow member being positioned when in the closed position in a manner which allows the fabric to clear a sport bar or “roll bar” member of a vehicle in the closed position such that a rear portion of the top is angled from the vertical when viewing the vehicle from the side.

The invention relates to a safety system for a wind turbine, comprising a pitch system (23), which comprises a plurality of drive systems (15, 16, 17) and at least one safety switching device (24), by means of which each of the drive systems (15, 16, 17) can be controlled to carry out a travel to a safe position in accordance with at least one control signal, a safety circuit, which is provided in a machine part adjacent to the pitch system (23) and which comprises a transmission device (32) and a controller (29), by means of which the at least one control signal can be generated, which can be transmitted from the controller (29) to the safety switching device (24) by means of the transmission device (32), wherein the control signal can be generated and/or output by the controller (29) in the form of at least two control signals (EFC 1, EFC 2), the control signals (EFC 1, EFC 2) can be transmitted from the controller (29) to the safety switching device (24) by means of the transmission device (32), a safety-relevant error can be detected in the safety circuit by means of the safety switching device (29) by evaluating the control signals (EFC 1, EFC 2), and each of the drive systems (15, 16, 17) can be controlled to travel to a safe position if such an error is present.
