Soft top for convertible has control device capable of transmitting by traction forces and pushing forces

摘要

The soft top includes an outer covering, rods (2) with a moving rod part (2a) and a lining. When the rods move to the closed position, the lining can be pulled tight against them by a power-transmitting control device (4) with a cylinder (5) and reciprocating rod (6), which can transmit both traction and pushing forces. When the rods move to the open position, the pushing force acts against the head lining.
