主权项

1. A dual-opening panoramic sunroof comprising:
a front glass which slides forward and rearward by being connected with a front sled that is slidable forward and rearward along a mechanism rail disposed at either side of an opening formed in a roof panel of a vehicle; a rear glass which slides forward and rearward by being connected with a rear sled that is slidable forward and rearward along the mechanism rail; a front timing plate which has a rear end rotatably coupled to the rear sled, and a front end formed with a front groove to accommodate a portion of the front sled, and selectively connects the front sled and the rear sled; a rear tilt lever which is disposed rearward of the mechanism rail, is rotatable by having a portion that is accommodated in a rear tilt sled that is slidable forward and rearward, and tilts up a rear portion of the rear glass; and a rear timing plate which has a rear end rotatably coupled to the rear tilt sled, and a front end formed with a rear groove formed to selectively accommodate a portion of the rear sled, and connects the rear sled and the rear tilt sled, wherein both of the front glass and the rear glass are configured to slide after being tilted up toward an outside of the roof panel.
