Abstract: A covering device for the load space of a motor vehicle, having a flexible surface structure, is held, in a rollable or extendable manner, on a winding shaft supported solidly with the loading space. A coiled spring apparatus for exerting the force for rolling up onto the surface structure is provided on the winding shaft. A form-stable extending element is positioned on one frontal end area of the surface structure. The surface structure is guided over its path of extension within the load space by a guiding device, in that at least one locking device for blocking the surface structure relative to the guiding device is provided in at least one partially-extended working position, and in that a manually-triggerable releasing device, by which the locking of the surface structure can be ended, is provided for the locking device.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a covering device for the load space of a motor vehicle, having a flexible surface structure, which is held, in a rollable or extendable manner, on a winding shaft supported solidly with the loading space. A coiled spring apparatus for exerting the force for rolling up onto the surface structure is provided on the winding shaft. A form-stable extending element is positioned on one frontal end area of the surface structure. The surface structure is guided over its path of extension within the load space by means of a guiding device, in that at least one locking device for blocking the surface structure relative to the guiding device is provided in at least one partially-extended working position, and in that a manually-triggerable releasing device, by means of which the locking of the surface structure can be ended, provided for the locking device.

Abstract: A separating mechanism 13 is provided which includes a winding shaft 19 that is rotatably supported in a housing 14. A separating net 15 can be wound on the winding shaft 19 and can be stretched in the space between the housing 14 of the separating mechanism 13 and the roof lining of a passenger car. Since the winding shaft 19 generates a greater torque that the user must counteract with increasing draw-off of the separating net 15, a drive mechanism 18 is provided that provides that from a predetermined draw-out length onward the drive torque for the winding shaft 19 is switched to a reduced level. This switch-over is either brought about as a second, weaker drive spring 39 is activated, or as a second drive spring 93 is switched parallel to the drive spring 38 for the winding shaft 19. The two auxiliary springs 39, 93 operate, however, only over a limited turning range of the winding shaft 19.
