Adjustable roof with folding top for motor vehicles has top tensioning bracket born pivoted on vehicle body via multiple joint system, for space-saving storage of folded top

摘要

The folding top has a frame (2) with cover tensioning bracket (8) and a top covering (3). When the top is closed, the bracket is in a position tensioning the cover material. The bracket is held pivoted on the vehicle body via a multiple joint kinematic system (9). The system has a drive lever coupled to a main column (7) of the kinematic adjusting system (5) of the folding top frame. When the folding top is moved from closed position to storage position, the kinematic bracket system reaches a dead point position.
