SUNSHADE ASSEMBLY AND OPEN ROOF CONSTRUCTION PROVIDED THEREWITH

摘要

A sunshade assembly comprises a flexible sunscreen (4) having opposed longitudinal edges and opposed transversal edges, a rotatable winding' shaft (5) configured for winding and unwinding the sunscreen at a first one of its transversal edges, and an operating beam (8) connected to the second one of the transversal edges of the sunscreen. Elongated longitudinal guiderails (6, 7) each include a guide channel (11) in which the respective guide strip (10) is accommodated when the sunscreen is unwound. The guide channel is oriented at an acute angle transversely to accommodate the strips at an acute angle with respect to the sunscreen. The guide channel is bounded on the side facing the sunscreen by a guide edge (12) being in engagement with and guiding one of the sides of the flexible sunscreen.
