摘要:
A vehicle sunroof is provided with side shields formed of a mesh material. The side shields prevent inadvertent pinching of an occupant's hand by the mechanism for driving the sunroof panel to move, when the panel is in its vent position. The mesh material allows flow of air into the cab of the vehicle when the panel is in the vent position. The side shield is also formed to have a shape such that the rear end of the side shield extends for a greater length then does the forward end. In this way, the shape of the side shield better matches the pivoting movement of the panel, and there is less unnecessary material which must be accommodated when the sunroof is in its closed position. Also, the side shield has a better visual appearance then does the prior art side shield.

A wind deflector (5) for a motor vehicle with roof or a convertible top which can be transferred to a stowage space. The wind deflector (5) is pivotally supported on a cross beam (4) which extends over the front windshield (3), and it can be pivoted by a drive (13) which also actuates a detachable interlock of the convertible top (2) on the cross beam (4), depending on the position of the raising mechanism (18) which is actuated by the drive means (13) for the wind deflector (5), a locking device (11) is coupled to the drive (13) or is uncoupled from it.

A sunroof seal has a window, and a seal mounted thereon. The seal has an upper portion having a channel for engaging the window along its corresponding surface. The seal also includes a lower portion having a non-uniform cross section formed thereon for reducing the windnoise from a sunroof that is in the vented position.

A device for guiding an airflow in a region of a roof opening in a motor vehicle roof comprises a wind deflector and at least one additional deflector. This additional deflector has a rear end face and is movably fastened to the wind deflector and adapted to protrude vertically upwards with respect to a rear edge of the wind deflector. The wind deflector and the additional deflector are each movable from a normal, unextended position into an extended position. The additional deflector is fastened to an underside of the wind deflector when in its normal position and moves along the rear end face of the wind deflector when moving into the extended position.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for a pop-up vehicle wind deflector. The wind deflector comprises a lower frame member coupled to the vehicle proximate an opening in the roof, an upper frame member pivotably coupled to the vehicle proximate the opening, a flexible material coupled between the upper and lower frame members and a biasing means acting upon the upper frame member effective to extend the upper frame member away from the lower frame member. The flexible or elastic material coupled to the upper and lower frame members provides a wind-confronting surface when the upper frame member is extended away from the lower frame member. The upper frame member may be upwardly bowed to provide additional tension on the central portion of the flexible material when the upper frame member is extended away from the lower frame member.

A mechanism for a wind deflector of a motor vehicle roof is provided which includes a raising lever which is moved in a raising direction by means of a spring. A displacement of a back edge of the wind deflector in a lengthwise direction is balanced during the swiveling motion by means of a compensation device. A spring is used directly as the compensation device.

A vehicle sun roof apparatus includes a deflector movable in a vehicle longitudinal direction in response to an operation of a sliding panel. The deflector is operatively connected to a cam arranged behind an arm portion of the deflector. The cam is movable in the vehicle longitudinal direction in response to a vehicle speed for moving a rear end of the arm portion in a vehicle vertical direction. The vehicle sun roof apparatus further includes a link mechanism freely rotatably fixed at an approximately central portion of the arm portion (14b). The link mechanism is rotatable within a predetermined angle relative to the arm portion and is rotatable relative to the vehicle roof.

An improved sunroof assembly is provided. The sunroof assembly includes a sunroof portion and an air dam portion. The sunroof portion includes a sunroof panel which is positionable between an open and a closed position. The air dam portion includes an air dam structure, a drive assembly and a wind noise determining portion. The air dam structure is pivotally coupled to the sunroof portion and is positionable between a retracted position and an extended position. The drive assembly is coupled to the sunroof portion and the air dam structure and operable for positioning the air dam structure between the retracted position and the extended position. The wind noise determining system determines the amount and characteristics of the noise transmitted into the vehicle passenger compartment through sunroof assembly and generates a signal in response thereto. Drive assembly interprets the signal and selectively repositions air dam structure in predetermined control method to vary the position of air dam structure so as to minimize the wind noise transmitted into a vehicle passenger compartment.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for a manually installable and removable sunroof system comprising a roof with an opening, a roof panel that is removeably secured in the opening, and an upwardly biased and retractable wind deflector assembly stowable within an area near the opening. During installation of the roof panel, the deflector assembly may be held into place by a pivoting and engagingly-biased latch. In one embodiment, as the roof panel is installed, an extension, protruding therefrom, confronts the pivoting latch, at which point the wind deflector is disengaged from the latch and thereafter held in a substantially retracted position by the roof panel. When the roof panel is next removed, the previously retracted wind deflector is automatically deployed into an operational position. In some embodiments, the deflector assembly may be fabricated from a flexible material and may be maintained in a retracted position and subsequently deployed using a manually actuated latch.
