<p>An elevating roof assembly for a vehicle such as a motor caravan comprises a frame (10) defining an opening in the roof (16), a roof panel (18) which can be raised and lowered above the opening, and one or more base panels (44) which can be extended outwardly of the opening to provide an extended base part of the assembly. The assembly is characterized in that it provides rigid, collapsible side panels (65,69) between the longitudinal edges of the roof panel and the corresponding edge of the base panel which can be folded within the opening when the respective base panel is in the retracted position and the roof panel is lowered. A supporting mechanism for the assembly has a curved track which is engaged by a follower on the roof panel.</p> |
