Top for a Convertible Vehicle
A top ( 1 ) for a convertible vehicle has at least one roof part ( 3 ) which is movable between a closed and an open position, and, in its open position, is put away in a trunk ( 6 ) of the convertible vehicle, and a movably mounted, planar covering element ( 8 ), the rear edge ( 9 ) of which, in the open position of the roof part ( 3 ), bears against a trunk lid ( 7 ) and, together with the same, closes the trunk ( 6 ). In the closed position of the at least one roof part ( 3 ), at least the rear edge ( 9 ) of the covering element ( 8 ) comes to lie below the roof part ( 3 ).
1 - 11 . (canceled)
12 . A top for a convertible vehicle, comprising:
at least one roof part which is movable between closed and open positions, and which, in its open position, is stowed in a trunk of the convertible vehicle; and
a movably mounted, planar covering element, a rear edge of which, in the open position of the roof part, bears against a trunk lid and, cooperates with the trunk lid to close the trunk; wherein,
in the closed position of the at least one roof part, at least the rear edge of the covering element lies below the roof part.
13 . The top as claimed in claim 12 , wherein, in the closed position of the roof part, the covering element bears against a rear window of the roof part.
14 . The top as claimed in claim 13 , wherein, in the closed position of the roof part, the covering element bears against a sealing element ( 13 ) of the rear window.
15 . The top as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the covering element has a sealing element which, in the open position of the roof part, bears against the trunk lid.
16 . The top as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the covering element can be driven by a top kinematics which drives the at least one roof part.
17 . The top as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the covering element is connected to a link of the top kinematics via at least one connecting link.
18 . The top as claimed in claim 17 , wherein the at least one connecting link connected to the covering element is guided in a slotted guide configured such that, at the beginning of movement of the at least one roof part from its closed into its open position, the covering element achieves a freewheeling movement.
19 . The top as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the connecting link is associated with bolt which is locked by the slotted guide during the entire movement of the covering element.
20 . The top as claimed in claim 12 , wherein:
a stop element is fitted to a first arm of a tilting lever;
the tilting lever mounted rotatably about a pivot point;
one of the covering element and a link of the driving kinematics of the covering element bears against said stop element in a first end position of the covering element;
in the first end position of the covering element, a second arm provided on the other side of the first arm of the tilting lever bears against a rigid stop, with a driving link of the top kinematics;
in a second end position of the covering element, the second arm brings the stop element, by exerting pressure on the second arm, into a position which is raised in relation to the first end position; and
the covering element or the link of the driving kinematics bears against the stop element in the second end position.
21 . The top as claimed in claim 19 , wherein the driving link has a control link for actuating the second arm of the tilting lever.
22 . A convertible vehicle with a top as claimed in claim 1 .
