- the supporting link 119 is formed in a rear area of the guide rail 108 .
- the support pin 118 is arranged along the vertical direction Z in the same plane as the support link 119 .
- the support pin 118 reaches the support link 119 .
- the support link 119 is straight along the X-direction educated .
- the support pin 118 can thus be supported along the vertical direction Z, in particular downwards and upwards, on the walls of the support link 119 . In this way, forces, in particular forces along the vertical direction Z, can be transmitted from the deployment lever 109 to the guide rail 108 .
- the deployment lever 109 is thus additionally supported by means of the support pin 118 , particularly in the open position.
- the release lever 109 has a first side area 122 .
- the first side area 122 is aligned in an XZ plane.
- the release lever 109 has a second side area 123 .
- the second side area 123 is also formed in a ZX plane.
- the first side area 122 and the second side area 123 are arranged at a distance from one another.
- the deployment lever 109 has a connection area 120 along the transverse direction Y.
- the connection area is arranged in an XY plane.
- the connecting area 120 connects the two side areas 122 , 123 .
- Parts of the guide rail 108 can be arranged between the two side areas 122 , 123 .
- the side area 122 is arranged on one side of the guide rail 108 and the second side area 123 on an opposite side of the guide rail 108 or in a middle area of the guide rail 108 .
- the sliding pin 115 and the lever link 116 are formed on the first side area 122 of the deployment lever 109 .
- On the second side area 123 of the deployment lever 109 are, for example, the drive link 124, the support pin 118 and the displacement companion 130 arranged . It is thus possible to arrange different elements of the couplings 111 , 112 and the other drive, displacement and coupling elements on different areas of the deployment lever 109 and on different side areas of the guide rail 108 . This means that the installation space can be used efficiently.
- a cover link 132 is formed on the cover 103 , in particular on the cover support 140 , in order to raise and lower the front edge 106 of the cover 103 along the vertical direction Z.
- the additional drive carriage 131 engages in the cover link 132 .
- the additional drive carriage 131 can thus be moved in sections relative to the cover 103 and the cover carrier 140 . If the additional drive carriage 131 is arranged at the end of the cover slide 132 , a movement of the additional drive carriage 131 along the X direction is transmitted to the cover carrier 140 and the cover 103 .
- the cover carrier 140 has a cover slider 133 at its front end facing the windshield 104 .
- the lid slide 133 is fastened to the lid carrier 140 and cannot, for example, pivot or slide relative to the lid carrier 140 . It is also possible for the lid slide 133 to be rotatable relative to the lid carrier 140 about an axis of rotation which runs along the transverse direction Y.
- the cover slider 133 is immovable relative to the cover carrier 140 along the longitudinal direction X and/or the vertical direction Z.
- the lid slider 133 is guided in the guide rail 108 and is used to lift and move the front edge of the lid.
- the protruding area 128 is formed on the rear side of the deployment lever 109 .
- the protruding area 128 extends backwards in particular along the longitudinal direction X, starting from the drive link 124 up to the displacement companion 130 . In the ventilation position of the cover 103 , this protruding area 128 is arranged, for example, in front of the fixed roof element 129 .
- the deployment lever is displaced along the X-direction relative to the guide rail 108, so that the projecting area 128 is arranged along the vertical direction Z above the fixed roof element 129.
- the protruding area 128 of the deployment lever 109 protrudes backwards beyond the fixed roof element 129 .
- the release lever 109 extends forwards in an elongated manner along the X-direction and is supported comparatively far in front on the slide pin 115 and on the further slide pin 117 and is additionally held by the support pin 118 .
- the drive carriage 110 is decoupled from the other drive carriages 131 by means of the locking element 127 and locked relative to the guide rail 108 along the X-direction.
- the locking element engages in a corresponding locking slot of the guide rail 108 at its end remote from the deployment lever 109 .
- the cover 103 is subsequently pushed backwards along the longitudinal direction X relative to the deployment lever 109 .
- the cover 103 can thus be arranged in the open position along the vertical direction Z above the first roof element 129 .
- the slide pin 115 of the release lever 109 is arranged, for example, along the longitudinal direction X in front of the other drive carriage 131 .
- the cover link 132 is arranged along the longitudinal direction X behind the slide pin 115 .
- the deployment lever 109 thus extends forwards in front of the front edge 106 of the cover 103 along the longitudinal direction X when the cover 103 is in the fully open position.
- the front edge 106 of the cover 103 is arranged in the fully open position of the cover 103 along the longitudinal direction X between the sliding pin 115 and the displacement companion 130 .
- the further drive carriage 131 is arranged in the fully open position of the cover along the longitudinal direction X between the sliding pin 115 and the displacement companion 130 .
- the further drive carriage 131 is arranged in the fully open position of the cover 103 along the transverse direction Y next to the release lever 109 .
- the deployment lever 109 is pivoted relative to the cover 103 in the open position of the cover 103 in comparison to the closed position of the cover 103 .
- the pivoting of the deployment lever 109 leads to the rear edge 107 being raised relative to the fixed roof element 129 .
- the deployment lever 109 which is always longer in the longitudinal direction X than in the vertical direction Z or the transverse direction Y in every position of the cover 103 , enables the cover carrier 140 to be supported comparatively far to the rear and in particular above the fixed roof element 129 .
- the deployment lever 109 In the closed position of the cover 103 and the fan position, the deployment lever 109 extends along a longitudinal extension 121 of the cover 103 .
- the longitudinal extension 121 of the lid extends between the leading edge 106 and the trailing edge 107 along the longitudinal direction X .
- the release lever 109 extends, for example, along one fifth, one quarter, one third or more, for example up to half or up to two thirds of the longitudinal extent 121 of the cover 103 in the longitudinal direction X forward toward the windshield 104 .
- Supporting the cover carrier 140 as far to the rear as possible along the longitudinal direction X reduces leverage forces which are applied via the cover carrier 140 to the slide pin 115 and the further slide pin 117 .
- the displacement companion 130 is arranged above the fixed roof element 129 when the cover 103 is open. Supporting the front end of the deployment lever 109 by means of the sliding pin 115 as far forward as possible along the X direction also leads to favorable lever forces, which enable the deployment lever 109 to be reliably supported even when the cover 103 is pushed far to the rear. Supporting by means of the support pin 118 additionally stabilizes the arrangement. A large opening width of the roof opening 107 can thus be realized overall, since the cover 103 can be pushed far to the rear and is nevertheless reliably supported and held by the deployment lever 109 .
- the fixed roof element 129 is, for example, another cover that is arranged on the roof opening 102 . It is also possible that the fixed roof element 129 is part of the vehicle body 105 or a metal sheet that Vehicle roof 101 forms and surrounds the roof opening.
- the arrangement 200 is constructed in such a way that the elements of the arrangement 200 and other mechanical elements do not have to get under the fixed roof element 129 in order to open the cover 103 completely. In particular, the further drive carriage 131 is only moved up to in front of the fixed roof element 129 .
- the arrangement 200 has a good support ratio and thus a high degree of inherent rigidity.
- a stable support of the deployment lever 109 is achieved along the Z-direction with a comparatively small installation space requirement, in particular by means of the support pin 118 .
- the control of the deployment lever 109 by means of the second coupling 112 close to the pivot point of the deployment lever 109 on the sliding pin 115 enables a large Z-stroke at the rear edge with a small angle of rotation. In particular, no additional release lever or coupling lever is necessary for this.
- FIG. 11 shows lid reinforcement 141 which is particularly useful in assembly 200 .
- the cover reinforcement 141 can also be usefully used with other arrangements.
- the cover reinforcement 141 can also be used, for example, with sunroofs guided on the outside or any other type of cover 103, for example with the fixed roof element 129.
- the cover reinforcement 141 is in particular a deep-drawn part made from sheet metal, for example.
- the cover reinforcement 141 is arranged in the form of a frame in the exemplary embodiment shown. It is also possible that the cover reinforcement 141 is formed only in partial areas, for example only along the two sides of the lid 103 between the leading edge 106 and the trailing edge 107 along the longitudinal direction X.
- the cover reinforcement 141 has a mounting bracket 143 on each of the two longitudinal sides 152 , 153 running in the X direction.
- the two mounting brackets 143 are of the same type and designed to correspond to one another. Only one mounting bracket 143 is described below. The other mounting bracket 143 is designed to correspond.

- the assembly interfaces 144 , 145 are at a distance 148 from one another.
- the distance 148 is, for example, 10 cm or more, for example the distance 148 has a value in a range from 20 cm to 50 cm or 20 cm to 40 cm.
- the mounting tab 143 is formed in one piece between the two mounting interfaces 144 , 145 .
- the mounting tab 143 has a central portion 149 formed between the mounting interfaces 144 , 145 .
- the middle area 149 of the mounting bracket 143 has the material of the lid reinforcement 141 .
- the assembly tab 143 is made in one piece over its entire length from the cover reinforcement 141 bent so that the mounting bracket 143 is aligned along the vertical direction Z.

- the two mounting interfaces 144 , 145 are connected to one another by means of the central area 149 of the mounting bracket 143 .
- the central area 149 is designed in particular to transmit forces between the two assembly interfaces 144 , 145 .
- the mounting bracket 143 which extends in one piece over the entire length 146, enables a large area moment of inertia between the two mounting interfaces 144, 145.
- the sheet metal of the cover reinforcement 141 is positioned continuously between the assembly interface 144 and the assembly interface 145 .
- the rigidity of the cover reinforcement 141 and thus of the cover 103 is thus increased. For example, a natural frequency is increased by approximately 1 Hz compared to conventional cover reinforcements with a plurality of mounting brackets per longitudinal side.
- FIG. 12 shows the cover 103 with the cover reinforcement 141 .
- the lid reinforcement 141 is attached to a panel 147 of the lid 103 by a connection 142 .
- the panel 147 is, for example, an extensive glass panel or an extensive plastic panel or a panel made of one other material .
