1. A vehicle sun roof apparatus comprising:
a movable panel configured to open and close an opening section formed in a roof portion of a vehicle; a guide rail provided at an edge portion of the opening section in the vehicle width direction and extending in the fore-and-aft direction of the vehicle; a sliding member linked to an edge portion of the movable panel in the vehicle width direction, provided along the guide rail so as to be movable in the fore-and-aft direction of the vehicle, and driven to be moved by an electric drive source; a check mechanism configured to release a movement lock of the movable panel and transferring the movable panel to a tilt-up state by moving a rear portion upward about a supporting point at a front portion of the movable panel when the sliding member moves forward of the vehicle in a fully-closed state of the movable panel, and maintaining the tilt-up state when the sliding member moves further forward of the vehicle and then moves rearward of the vehicle in the tilt-up state; and an engagement and disengagement switching mechanism provided with a first member and a second member, and configured to engage the first member and the second member by pressing so that the movable panel moves when the sliding member moves rearward of the vehicle thereafter; wherein the check mechanism includes: a check block including an engaging groove and being provided on the guide rail; and a rotation check having an engaging projection capable of being locked into the engaging groove and being coupled to the edge portion of the movable panel in the vehicle width direction so as to be rotatable about an axial line extending in the fore-and-aft direction of the vehicle, configured to be locked so as not to rotate in a state in which the engaging projection is locked into the engaging groove in the fully-closed state to lock the movement of the movable panel when the sliding member moves forward of the vehicle, be guided to rotate about the axial line when the sliding member further moves forward of the vehicle in the tilt-up state and to release the engaging projection from the engaging groove when the sliding member moves rearward of the vehicle thereafter to disengage the movement lock of the movable panel.
