Abstract

The body has a roller blind system comprising a blind strip (15) that is rollable on a blind shaft (20). A carriage cover (25) is provided for covering the blind shaft and is adjustable relative to the blind shaft depending on the degree of winding. The carriage cover is adjustable over a pinion gear and a gear rod or by a lever bearing. The carriage cover at a side area has a removable cover strip (35), where the cover strip at a side (40) is articulately connected with the body. The blind shaft is accommodated in a separate blind space (60).

Description

The The present invention relates to a motor vehicle body for a motor vehicle.

A Motor vehicle bodywork for a motor vehicle with a roof opening usually serves better air conditioning and lighting the vehicle interior and may have a roller blind system, which in the Roof area of the vehicle body arranged slidably is to the roof opening as a sunscreen cover.

adversely in such a motor vehicle body is that the size of the storage space for the roller blind system must be designed so that the wound roller blind accommodated therein can be. This storage space size limits either the size of the roof opening or increased the size of the vehicle frame or reduces the rear area of the vehicle interior.

Of the The present invention is therefore the object of a motor vehicle body for a To create motor vehicle, the storage space required for a roller blind system reduced.

The solution The object is achieved according to the invention by the features of the claim 1. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the subclaims.

The Inventive vehicle body for a Motor vehicle comprises a roller blind system, wherein the roller blind system at least a roller blind with a roller blind shaft on which the roller blind can be wound up is and provided a cover for covering the roller blind shaft is, and wherein the cover flap depending on the degree of winding relative is adjustable to Rollowelle. It is in particular with a roller blind a roller blind of a roller blind system meant, which consists of several, hingedly interconnected links and thereby to the different roof vaults the various vehicle bodies can ideally adapt.

With Help of the vehicle body according to the invention is achieved that the required storage space for the Enlarge the roller blind system as required or shrink and adjust according to the degree of winding of the roller blind can adapt to the roller blind individually. When the roof opening through the blind system is closed, the blind is completely unwound and the needed Storage space for the roller blind is the lowest at this time. At least in the unwound state of the roller blind is the storage space required for the roller blind system reduced. Will the roof opening open, increases with every winding of the roller blind on the roller shaft the required storage space for the Blind shaft. Due to the adjustable cover, it is possible that the additional by the respective windings required storage space individually adapted to the degree of winding of the roller blind. Thus, the maximum storage space used only if the storage space is actually needed, d. H. if the roof opening open and the blind completely is wound on the roller shaft. It is conceivable that the cover either in the direction of the vehicle interior or out of the vehicle frame is adjustable. The storage space for the roller blind system is optimized by the present invention such that neither the size of the roof opening still the size of the roof frame or the vehicle interior are significantly affected by the roller blind system.

In a preferred embodiment is the cover over a gear transmission and a rack adjustable or by means of a lever position. Conceivable, however, are all types of transmission applicable here, such as a toggle, a lever linkage or the like. To this Way, the opening and closing of the cover flap is mechanically supported. When opening the roof opening The roller blind is wound up on the roller shaft. By the rotation the roller shaft is rotated, the gear cover and the cover over a integrated rack adjusted. This will ensure that the roller blind a dependent on the degree of winding and correspondingly has sufficient storage space size. Further, through a gearbox a continuous distance between the roller blind and the cover plate be maintained, whereby the signs of wear on the roller blind and the roller blind shaft can be reduced.

Especially the cover flap on a first side hinged to a motor vehicle body be connected so that the cover flap on the first side in Area of the vehicle body is fixed and only the second side from the vehicle body level, which deflects from this first side is pivotable out. In this way, occurring air currents aerodynamically be advantageously diverted away from the motor vehicle, so that uncontrolled Turbulence in the flap can be reduced.

It is particularly advantageous if the cover flap has a removable cover strip on at least one side region, wherein the cover strip is pivotally connected to a motor vehicle bodywork on a first side. By the cover strip can be ensured that the cover closes in the closed non-swung-state largely tight against the vehicle body and possible impurities or moisture in beispielswei se can be avoided in the vehicle interior.

Preferably the roller blind is housed in a separate room and in this way completely separated from the vehicle interior. The cover of the roller blind system can in this way, either partially or exclusively The removable and adjustable cover flap done so that it possible Both the roller blind system and the vehicle interior is too contaminated protect. Depending on the arrangement of the cover, the roller blind system is either from the vehicle interior or the outer roof area by dismantling the cover flap accessible.

Preferably the cover flap has an overlapping on at least one side area Approach to, to cover the roller shaft in the wound state the roller blind serves, so that ensures is that the roller blind system at all times completely through the cover flap is covered. Any external influences can be avoided and wear caused by it can be reduced.

Especially It is advantageous if the cover on at least the side areas a flexible cover film to cover the roller shaft in the wound Condition of the roller blind has. Also, this can be a continuous and complete Covering the roller blind shaft or the roller room guaranteed become.

The The invention further relates to a motor vehicle, which is a body element comprises, as described above and further educated may be, thereby optimizing the storage space for a roller blind system so will that neither the size of the roof opening nor the size of the roof frame or the vehicle interior are affected by the roller blind system.

following the invention with reference to the accompanying drawings explained in more detail.

It demonstrate:

1 a schematic perspective sectional view of a motor vehicle body for a motor vehicle with a closed roof opening and

2 a schematic perspective sectional view of a motor vehicle body for a motor vehicle with open roof opening and a wound roller blind.

In 1 a motor vehicle body according to the invention for a motor vehicle is shown with a closed roof opening. The motor vehicle body has a roller blind system with a roller blind 15 and a roller blind shaft 20 on, on the roller blind 15 is windable. The roller blind shaft 20 is made by a removable cover flap 25 obscured, with the cover flap 25 on a first page 30 hingedly connected to the vehicle body. Furthermore, the cover flap 25 on its side a removable cover strip 35 on, which in turn on a first page 40 hingedly connected to the vehicle body. On a second side, the cover flap 25 an overlapping approach 45 on.

In 2 the vehicle body according to the invention is shown in the open state, in which the roof opening is opened and the roller blind 15 on the roller blind 20 is wound up. The cover plate 25 is according to the degree of winding relative to the roller blind 20 adjusted. For this purpose, the roller blind shaft 20 a gear transmission 50 and a rack 55 for mechanical suppression of the adjustable cover flap 25 on. Here is the cover 25 just so far around the articulated first page 30 the cover flap 25 , or the hinged first page 40 the cover strip 35 tipped that a separate room to roll 60 in which the roller blind shaft 20 stored, can be used optimally. Through the overlapping approach 45 will be the room for a roll 60 and the roller shaft located therein 20 sufficiently obscured even in the wound state shown, so that impurities and / or other effects, such as raindrops, from the roller blind shaft 20 and the room in the room 60 can be held as far as possible.
