1. A vehicle door edge protection device comprising:
- a door edge protection profile movably guided with respect to a vehicle door;
a linear guide fixed in the door;
a rod comprising a curved portion disposed in the linear guide; and
a lever that executes rotational movement of at least 180°
to drive the rod to move the door edge protection profile along a curved path between a retracted position and an extended position on an edge of the door, wherein the curved portion of the rod in combination with the linear guide dictates the curved path of the movement of the door edge protection profile between the retracted and extended positions.

8. A vehicle door edge protection device comprising:
-
a door edge protection profile movably guided with respect to a vehicle door; a linear guide fixed in the door; and a lever mounted rotatably in the door and coupled to a holding rod having a curved portion disposed in the linear guide for driving the door edge protection profile as the lever executes a rotational movement between 0 to 290°
to move the door edge protection profile along a curved path between a retracted position and an extended position on an edge of the door, wherein the curved portion of the rod in combination with the linear guide dictates the curved path of the movement of the door edge protection profile between the retracted and extended positions. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11)
