OPENABLE VEHICLE ROOF
An openable vehicle roof with a roof opening and a movable cover has a wind deflector which is attached pivotably to a fixed shaft located under an opening edge. A wind deflector mechanism, which can be coupled to a movement mechanism of the cover, is also located under the opening edge.
1 . An openable vehicle roof comprising:
a roof opening that can selectively be opened and closed by a movable cover, wherein the roof opening is delimited by an opening edge of the movable cover;
a wind deflector which, in an open state of the roof opening, protrudes upward behind a front opening edge, and wherein the wind deflector is spring-mounted and can be pivoted about a fixed shaft which, in a pivoted-out position of the wind deflector, is located entirely below the front opening edge; and
a wind deflector mechanism that is located below the opening edge, and which pivots the wind deflector into a retracted position, the wind deflector mechanism adapted to be coupled to a movement mechanism of the movable cover.
2 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the wind deflector mechanism is a linkage.
3 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 2 , wherein, in the pivoted-out position of the wind deflector, the linkage is entirely decoupled from the movement mechanism.
4 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 2 , wherein, during closing of the roof opening, the movement mechanism moves toward the linkage and displaces the linkage to bring about a pivoting-in movement.
5 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in one of claims 2 , wherein the linkage has a lever which, in the pivoted-out position of the wind deflector, stands vertically, and a pressure element that is coupled to the lever and is connected to the wind deflector.
6 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the lever is bent laterally and the pressure element lies in a bend.
7 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the movement mechanism has a slotted guide which, during closing of the movable cover, strikes against the wind deflector mechanism and displaces the wind deflector mechanism.
8 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the slotted guide has a laterally protruding stop that strikes against the wind deflector mechanism.
9 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the movement mechanism pivots a lever of the wind deflector mechanism.
10 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the movement mechanism pivots the lever of the wind deflector mechanism and, in a pivoted-in position of the wind deflector, the lever presses from above against the movement mechanism and is held in the pivoted position.
11 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the wind deflector mechanism is located laterally outside the movement mechanism of the movable cover.
12 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the wind deflector is brought into the pivoted-out position exclusively via springs coupled directly to the wind deflector.
13 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 11 , wherein the movement mechanism has a slotted guide, and wherein the wind deflector mechanism is located laterally outside the slotted guide.
14 . The openable vehicle roof as claimed in claim 1 wherein the both the wind deflector mechanism and the fixed shaft are located, as seen in top view, below the opening edge and cannot be seen from above the roof opening.
