A folding top for vehicles has a common pivoting drive of a main strut and of a roof-skin retaining bow via mechanical drive members, by means of which pivoting drive of the folding top can be transferred from a stowed position retracted into a top box into a closed position, in which the roof-skin retaining bow rests on the top-box lid located in a covering position thereof. An automatically controlled lock of the main strut relative to the vehicle body in its erected end position is provided and associated with its uncoupling from the driving movement of the drive members. For locking the main strut fixedly to the vehicle body, there are catch devices which are assigned to the top columns and the catching advance of the which starts only after the erected end position of the main strut has already been reached, and the uncoupling from the driving movement of the drive members is activated via the catching advance of the catch means only when the main strut has been locked.

A panel cover assembly is provided for a forward area of a frame opening of a top storage compartment into which, when the rear lid is open, a folding top with a fixed rear end can be folded inward. A cover panel serves as a parcel shelf when the top is closed, which cover panel is displaced rearward when the top is opened. Side flaps are arranged with mirror symmetry and articulated to ends of the cover panel. Mechanical forced control of the folding motion of the side flaps is provided as a function of the position of the cover panel that is displaceable in the lengthwise direction of the vehicle. The side flaps are constantly urged by springs in an upwardly folded direction and are each foldable downwardly and backwardly into their covering positions by a tensioning cable that is secured to the forward end by displacement of the cover panel rearward into its covering position. A deflecting guide structure for the corresponding tensioning cable fastened to the side flap at its rear end being provided on the lateral end areas of the cover panel.

A device is disclosed for sensing the rotary angle of a key-actuated lock system which contains a lock cylinder of a door or flap of a vehicle which is rotatable by way of a key. A follower is coupled to the lock cylinder via a driving coupling allowing a free-wheel rotational play and to a protection element of a lock and is rotatably mounted in a door interior. A switch-actuating part is rotationally coupled to the lock cylinder virtually free of play and is rotatable synchronously with the lock cylinder and a control switch which is switchable by the switch-actuating part at a specific rotary angle of the part and directly spatially adjacent thereto. The switch-actuating part is mounted behind the follower in relation to the lock cylinder on a carrier facing the interior of the vehicle and is fixed to the door or flap. A control switch is retained at least indirectly on the same carrier, and at least these two parts are sealed off relative to the door interior.

A fastening arrangement for a movable part especially a folding top or a roof of a motor vehicle. The arrangement includes a rotary latch which serves for securing a fastening pin of the movable part and is rotatable by means of an actuating device for a blocking and release of the fastening pin which can be retained by means of a detent pawl. In the locked position of the fastening, the detent pawl rests in an undercut principal notch of the rotary latch. High frictional forces and disturbing noises therefore are avoided during the unlocking operation. The rotary latch is rotatable through a specific angle oppositely to the blocking direction of the detent pawl by means of a control device activatable by the actuating device.

For swivel-assistance to a roof-skin holding bow forming the lower end of a folding canopy, lateral limbs of the holding bow being affixed to associated canopy struts of a main hoop, there is provided a rod element, the length of which can be altered, which is articulated at both ends and is arranged in the side wall region of the folding canopy. Since on end of the rod element is connected to the facing lateral limb of the roof-skin holding bow and the second end of the rod element is connected in articulated fashion to the associated canopy strut, the rod element can be arranged in space-saving manner in the side board.

A drive system for a lid or a flap of a convertible car body in which the control effort for the drive system is reduced by configuring the working cylinder as a control valve which releases the lid or the like after unlocking of the lock for lifting by the lifting cylinder, and is connected between the control device and the lifting cylinder.

The invention relates to a folding top for vehicles having a dimensionally stable rear window which, when the top is pushed back, can be folded down from an upright position of use into a stowed position displaced to the rear. Sliding control of the rear window during the stowing operation is provided via a strut of the top frame. The central region of the strut rests against the underneath of the top cover in front of the rear window when the top is closed and overlaps the rear window in its swung-back end position. A coupling device is provided for transmitting movement by means of which the rear window and the strut are connected to one another, in each case at a distance from their pivot axis. In order to make possible a rearward displacement of the rear window when stowing the folding top, largely independently of the lowering of the rear window relative to a material retaining profile, the coupling device includes tie members unstable under bending loads, which connect the rear window in the region of its front window edge to the central region of the strut. After a free movement the tie members are stable under tension only when a final phase of the rearward swinging movement of the strut is reached, after which the rear window participates in the rearward transverse advance of the central region and is moved positively into its pushed-back end position.

An actuating device for the mechanical positive actuation of a pressure-responsive switch utilizes a pivotably movable spring-loaded switch lever which, when activated by a control component movable in relation to the switch, is pivotable out of a lift-off position separate from the switch into a switch-triggering position bearing on the switch which is thereafter maintained in the bearing position. The switch lever is motionally coupled to the control component by spring force until the switch-triggering position is reached. It is possible to trigger the switch at an exact point, the switch lever is made bend-resistant and is pivotable about a joint and spring-loaded in the direction of its switch-triggering actuating advance. Since the switch lever is maintained in its switch-triggering position by the spring force, the control component can be moved further, uncoupled from the switch lever, after the latter has reached the switch-triggering position and moved through an additional angle to effect an additional mechanical function.

An intermediate folding top bow is fastened, via cantilevers arranged at its ends, to lateral roof-frame parts of a vehicle folding-top structure. During the opening operation of the folding-top structure, the intermediate bow is pivotable out of a tensioning position directed forwardly into a stowage position directed rearwardly. To make it possible to ensure that the intermediate bow will be stowed automatically and without being damaged, the intermediate bow is loaded during the opening of the folding top with a pivoting effect by a separate working element so that starting from its tensioning position, the intermediate bow is driven beyond a dead center between its tensioning position and its stowage position.

A DNA expression vector is described which is characterized in that it comprises a DNA sequence that codes a protein which possesses the biological activity of nitrogen monoxide synthase (NOS) and eukaryotic regulation elements, wherein said eukaryotic regulation elements result in the expression of said DNA sequence in eukaryotic cells, as well as the use of the expression vector for treatment or prevention of vascular disorders.
