Patent number: 7543878Abstract: The invention relates to a roll-bar system for vehicles comprising a roof, which can be retracted and raised in a motor-driven manner by a roof-displacement mechanism. The system consists of a roll-bar body that is associated with each seat and does not comprise a sensor-controlled crash drive. The body can be forcibly displaced autonomously, in conjunction with the roof-displacement mechanism, between a first rigid position, when the roof is closed, and a second raised, rigid position, when the roof is open. The aim of the invention is to raise the rigid roll-bar system into the respective rigid positions in a kinematically simple, forcibly guided manner.Type: GrantFiled: May 28, 2005Date of Patent: June 9, 2009Assignee: ISE Innomotive Systems Europe GmbHInventor: Jozsef Lang
