Abstract: A cover system for a vehicle roof has a deployable and retractable first cover with a predefined stiffness and a fixed second cover with a predefined stiffness. The cover system has a cover frame coupled to the two covers. The cover system has a cross strut with a stiffness of predefined configuration. The cross strut is coupled to the cover frame on opposite sides and is disposed between a rear edge of the first cover and a front edge of the second cover. The cover system has a reinforcement assembly having a U-shaped reinforcement frame coupled to the first cover, the reinforcement frame and the stiffnesses of the two covers and the cross strut configured to be mutually adapted such that a movement of the covers in the vertical direction is permitted within a predefined tolerance range.

Abstract: An assembly for a vehicle roof has a deployable cover, a cover inside panel coupled to the cover and a cover frame configured to couple the cover to a roof of a vehicle. The assembly has a cover receptacle unit having a receptacle element with a receptacle opening and an insertion element, the insertion element and receptacle opening designed to match one another. One receptacle element and insertion element in terms of a longitudinal axis of the vehicle roof is coupled to the cover frame on a front cross strut of the latter and the other receptacle element and insertion element is coupled to the cover inside panel, so that the cover by inserting the insertion element into the receptacle opening can be coupled to the cover frame and an operationally ready state of the assembly is able to be configured on the front cross strut of the cover frame.

Abstract: An assembly for a vehicle roof having a cover for forming a deployable for the roof, and an inner cover panel which is coupled to the cover. The assembly also has a cover frame configured for coupling the cover to a roof bodywork of the motor vehicle. The assembly also has a cover receiving unit configured for receiving the cover and coupling it to the cover frame; and a tilt mechanism which is coupled firstly to the inner cover panel and secondly to the cover frame, and which is configured for moving the cover between a first retracted position and a second deployed position. The assembly moreover has an electric drive unit coupled directly to the tilt mechanism so that the cover can be electrically moved between the first and second position by the tilt mechanism and the drive unit without the use of the drive cable.

Abstract: An assembly for vehicle roof has a deployable cover, a cover inside panel which is coupled to the cover, and a cover frame configured to couple the cover to the roof. The assembly has a cover receptacle unit to receive the cover and to couple the latter to the cover frame, and a cover centering unit with a centering lever and lever receptacle, configured to match one another. One centering lever and lever receptacle is coupled to the cover frame on a lateral longitudinal strut of the latter. The other of centering lever and lever receptacle is coupled to the cover inside panel so that the cover can be coupled to the cover frame by the cover receptacle unit and by inserting the centering lever is able to be centered in the lever receptacle in relation to a plane of main extent of the cover relative to the cover frame.

Abstract: An assembly for a vehicle roof has a cover, a cover inside panel and a cover frame to couple the cover to the roof body. The assembly has a cover receptacle unit and a tilting mechanism having a deployment lever, a sliding guide and a slotted guide. The deployment lever is pivotably coupled to the sliding guide and pivotably coupled to the cover inside panel and having first and second pivot axis. The sliding guide by the slotted guide is coupled to the cover frame so the cover by the tilting mechanism is adjustable between a retracted and deployed position. The tilting mechanism is configured that the second pivot axis is fixed in position relative to the cover, and the first pivot axis when transferring the cover from the first to second position is displaceable, and when reaching the second position is fixed in position relative to the sliding guide.
