DEVICE FOR SEALING AN OPENING MADE IN A STRUCTURAL ELEMENT INCLUDING A SYNCHRONISATION MEANS, AND CORRESPONDING AUTOMOBILE

摘要

The invention relates to a device for sealing an opening made in a structure, including a fixed panel in which an opening is defined, and at least one sliding panel, including: two shuttles respectively guided in two guiding rails mounted and/or formed on the surface of said fixed panel facing the inside of said vehicle; a frame supporting at least two guiding pins respectively engaging with each one of said shuttles, the latter including a means for guiding said pins enabling a transverse movement of said frame relative to said shuttles; an actuation means acting directly or indirectly on said shuttles in order to move the latter in said rails, causing said sliding panel to move in a direction perpendicular to the plane of said fixed panel. According to the invention, such a device includes a means for synchronising said actuation means, such as to synchronise the movement of said shuttles.
