Abstract: A wind deflector for a vehicle roof having a displaceable cover element. The wind deflector can have an unfoldable deflector element made of a flat flexible material and whose lower edge portion can be fastened to a vehicle-mounted base via a lower edge strip and whose upper edge portion is fastened to a pivotable deploying bow via an upper edge strip. The lower edge strip and the vehicle-mounted base and/or the upper edge strip and the deploying bow can form a respective fastening system. The fastening system may have a fixing rib on one side and an arrangement of tabs attached to the fixing rib on the other side, the arrangement of tabs being formed by locking tabs and support tabs alternating along the fixing rib, the locking tabs and the support tabs being in contact with the fixing rib on sides facing away from each other.

Abstract: A wind deflector for an openable vehicle roof having a displaceable cover element, the wind deflector may have a deployable deflector element which is made of a planar flexible material and forms a windward surface, the deflector element being attached to a pivotable deploying bow at its upper edge area and to a vehicle-attached base at its lower edge area and comprising a warp-knitted fabric having meshes. The warp-knitted fabric is a one-piece warp-knitted fabric. The windward surface is a curved surface whose curvature is defined by the interknitted meshes of the warp-knitted fabric.
