摘要:
A mechanism for the retractable top of an open automobile, comprising a plurality of frame elements (1,2) pivoted one after the other to be turnable relative to each other, the frame elements (1,2) comprising a first frame element (1) which is the foremost frame element on the free end of the top and a second frame element (2) which is the frame element adjacent to the first frame element. The first frame element (1) comprises a pair of first side rods (51), which are substantially longitudinal to the vehicle, and the second frame element (2) comprising a pair of second side rods (52), which are substantially longitudinal to the vehicle, and the side rods (51,52) being disposed to be turnable relative to each other in a vertical plane. The top mechanism further comprises an operating rod (7) arranged to cause the turning of the first side rod relative to the second side rod in connection with the processes of stretching the top mechanism over and of folding it up. The first side rod (51) and the second side rod (52) are connected to each other by means of a quadrangular linkage composed of two crank levers (8,9) of different lengths, and that the operating rod (7) is turnably pivoted to a crank lever (8), whereby the first side rod is turnable in completely controlled manner relative to the second side rod, throughout the turning movement.

Roof (1) of a convertible, divided into three substantially rigid roof sections, a forward roof section (2), a middle roof section (3) and a rearward roof section (4), hinged on each other in succession in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and arranged to be movable between a closed position (I) and an opened position (II). The rearward roof section (4) is pivotally connected to the body so as to be turnable by means of a main actuator (7). The middle roof section (3) is pivotally connected to the rearward roof section (4) and connected via a mechanical pivoted lever system (8) to the body and the rearward roof section of the convertible so that the middle roof section is turned by positive control together with the rearward roof section when the roof is being turned between the closed position (I) and the opened position (II).
摘要:
A locking arrangement for the openable top of an open automobile, in an open automobile provided with a multiple-articulated roof mechanism (1), by which the car top can be moved with the aid of an actuator into opened, respectively closed, position, and in which to the foremost, or first, rib (2) on the free end of the car top has been connected a first locking member (3) and on the windshield beam (4) has been provided a second locking member (5), said locking members in mutual cooperation locking the car top to the windshield beam when the car top is in closed position. The roof mechanism (1) has been arranged to guide the motion path of the first rib (2) on the free end of the car top at the terminal stage of the closing motion in the vicinity of the windshield beam (4) to be substantially longitudinal to the vehicle or at a small angle somewhat downward inclined from the horizontal plane, and the locking members (3 and 5) are disposed to become interlocked so that exclusively said terminal motion of the roof mechanism causes automatic interlocking of the first locking member (3) with the second locking member (5) on the windshield beam.
摘要:
A folding hard top (3) for a convertible, in which the rear end (10) of the forward top panel (6) has a first cut-out (14) extending in the widthwise direction of the vehicle across a substantial part of the width of the forward top panel. The front edge (15) of the first cut-out is located in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle at a first distance (1) from a first hinge axis (12) forward of said axis. The rearward top panel (7) comprises a second cut-out (16) formed in its front end (11) and extending in the widthwise direction of the vehicle through a substantial part of the width of the rearward top panel. The rear edge (17) of the second cut-out is located in the longitudinal direction at a second distance (L) from the first hinge axis (12) rearward of said axis. A middle top panel (8) is hinged on the rearward top panel (7) near the rear edge (17) of the second cut-out (16) so as to allow it to turn about a horizontal second hinge axis (18). The middle top panel (8) has been fitted to cover the opening (19) formed by the successive first cut-out (14) and second cut-out (16) when the top is in the first position (I). When the top is being folded down from the first position (I) to the second position (II), the middle top panel (8) turns away from the opening (19) into a position between the forward top panel (6) and the rearward top panel (7). When the top is in the second position (II) in the boot (5), the first cut-out (14) and the second cut-out (16) are placed one above the other in alignment with each other so that a luggage space (20) is formed in the rear part of the boot (5) in the area of the cut-outs (14, 16).
摘要:
A locking device for locking in closed position the openable top (1) of an open automobile, comprising connected to a frame rib (3) of the top framework (2) of the openable top: a twisting handle (4), locking hooks (5), and a transmission (6) by which said locking hooks are connected with each other and with one joint twisting handle (4) for transmitting the motion of said twisting handle to said locking hooks in order to bring them simultaneously into opening position, respectively into locking position, and a fixing lug (8) connected to the body (7) of the open automobile and disposed for engagement with a locking hook. The transmission (6) comprises an angle drive (10) placed on the foremost frame rib (3) of the top framework of the openable top, which is operated in a plane substantially parallelling the top, i.e., in a horizontal plane when the top is in closed position, by means of a turnable twisting handle (4), and a spindle (9) transversal to the center-line of the vehicle, which is driven by said angle drive; and the device comprises two self-retaining locking hooks (5) spaced from each other and which are operated by means of said twisting handle over said angle drive and said spindle.
摘要:
A convertible vehicle having an openable roof structure (1), said vehicle comprising a trunk lid (5), said trunk lid being supported by a guide linkage (6). The roof structure (1) is lowerable into a folding-top compartment (7) located in an upper region of the trunk (8) of the vehicle under said trunk lid. The vehicle also comprises a frame (9) on which said trunk lid (5) is articulated via said guide linkage (6). The frame (9) is supported to the lower rear end region of the bodywork by a flexural spring (10) enabling turning of the frame.
摘要:
The invention concerns a folding top mechanism (1) for a convertible, a rollover protection system and a convertible. The top mechanism (1) is combined with a rollover bar (25) providing rollover protection, said rollover bar being pivotally connected to the top mechanism (1) so that it turns in synchronism with it, and that the rollover bar (25) forms a frame to which a rear window (4) is connected.
摘要:
The invention relates to a vehicle and a folding top. The folding top (5) comprises a top cover (6) of flexible material fitted to extend at least over the luggage compartment (2) when the top is in its closed position, limiting the luggage compartment in the vertical direction, a U-shaped rear bow (7), to which the rear edge of the top cover is attached and which comprises a substantially horizontal transverse arm (8) and two substantially forward directed arms (9) at the ends of the transverse arm, the front ends (10) of said two arms (9) being connected to joints allowing a turning motion relative to the body, and which rear bow can be turned between a lowered closed position, in which the rear bow leans against the body and tailgate in close contact with them, and a raised open position. The top comprises a power means (11) for raising and lowering the rear bow (7), and an operating switch (12) disposed in the immediate vicinity of the tailgate (4) for activating the power means.
