Vehicle roof and roof opening mechanism
DCFirst Claim
1. A vehicle roof having a roof structure with a roof opening, which, by a roof opening mechanism, can be closed or at least partially uncovered as desired, said roof opening mechanism being designed as an interchangeable insert,wherein the interchangeable insert comprises a base frame, which follows an edge of the roof opening, wherein the roof opening mechanism further comprises a fabric covering element, which, by at least one tensioning bow fixedly pivotable with respect to the base frame, is displaceable between a closed position for covering the roof opening and an uncovering position for uncovering the roof opening,wherein the tensioning bow is coupled to an auxiliary tensioning bow fixedly pivotal to the base frame, andwherein the tensioning bow, in relation to a vertical longitudinal center plane of the roof, is on each of its two sides connected to the auxiliary tensioning bow via a coupling rod,the coupling rod being articulated to the auxiliary tensioning bow and to the main tensioning bow via intermediately positioned hinge points.
