Abstract: In a solar cover (14) for a motor vehicle roof (10) with an outside pane (20), an inside cover (18) and a plurality of solar cells (16) which are located between the outside pane and the inside cover, both the outside pane and also the inside cover being made of plastic, the outside pane (20) or the inside cover (18) is formed of an injection molded part (34) which has reinforcement and/or attachment elements (24, 29, 32) which are made in one piece with the outside pane (20) or the inside cover (18).

Abstract: A solar cover for a motor vehicle roof, which is provided with an outside transparent cover plate (12) and an inside cover (14) between which at least one solar cell (18) is embedded, an electrical contact (28) from which the solar current from the at least one solar cell is directed to the motor vehicle, and an electrical connector element which produces electrical contact between the at least one solar cell and the contact is embedded between the cover plate and the cover. The contact (28) is located in the horizontal direction outside of the area of the cover plate (12) which is covered by the cover (14) and the electrical connector (26) extends in the horizontal direction beyond the area covered by the cover to the contact.

Abstract: A motor vehicle roof with a roof opening which can be closed or at least partially exposed by a displaceable closure element (10) which has an electrical element (12), an displaceable headliner part (20) for concealing the closure element and at least one coupling element (18) which acts as a driver to entrain the headliner part in the displacement motion of the closure element. The coupling element furthermore provides for electrical contact between the electrical element of the closure element and a contact element (32) which is provided on the headliner part to establish electrical contact between the electrical element of the closure element and a vehicle-mounted electrical element.

Abstract: In a solar cover for a motor vehicle roof (2) with a carrier plate (10), a plurality of solar cells (18) located on the carrier plate, and a cover layer (36) which covers the side of the solar cells facing away from the carrier plate, there is a plastic injection molded part that service as the carrier plate (10) and in which contours (12, 16) are molded for positioning of the solar cells (18). The contours prevent the solar cells from becoming off-center during installation of the solar cover.

Abstract: A motor vehicle roof with an adjustable closing element for an opening in the fixed roof skin for alternatively closing or at least partially clearing the opening. The roof includes a sliding headliner located underneath the roof opening and the closing element, the sliding headliner being movable to at least one of cover and at least partially clear the closing element and the roof opening with respect to the vehicle interior. At least one electrically operated fan is integrated into the sliding headliner and is operable such that it blows air through the sliding headliner into the vehicle interior. Each fan on the intake side and/or on the exhaust side is provided with a filter to clean the air which has been blown into the vehicle interior.

Abstract: A motor vehicle roof including a front roof opening and a rear roof opening, a movable front cover for covering the front roof opening, the movable front cover being movably guided on a frame member and substantially transparent with a nonviewing area and a viewing area to allow viewing of objects through the front cover, a stationary rear cover for covering the rear roof opening, the stationary rear roof cover being supported on the frame and substantially transparent with a nonviewing area and a viewing area to allow viewing of objects through the stationary rear cover, and solar cells provided proximate to at least one of the nonviewing area of the movable front cover and the nonviewing area of the stationary rear cover.

Abstract: A motor vehicle roof with a solar generator which is securely attached on the outside on the solid roof skin for producing solar current for the vehicle. The solar generator can be adjusted between a first spatially compact configuration and a second, less spatially compact configuration in which its active solar surface projected onto the plane of the roof is larger than in the first configuration. The invention also relates to a motor vehicle roof with an attachment element which runs in the lengthwise direction of the roof and which is mounted externally on the solid roof skin and which is made such that a mobile flat solar generator can be pushed into the attachment element and is held in the working configuration by it to produce solar current.

Abstract: A motor vehicle roof including a front roof opening and a rear roof opening, a movable front cover for covering the front roof opening, the movable front cover being movably guided on a frame member and substantially transparent with a nonviewing area and a viewing area to allow viewing of objects through the front cover, a stationary rear cover for covering the rear roof opening, the stationary rear roof cover being supported on the frame and substantially transparent with a nonviewing area and a viewing area to allow viewing of objects through the stationary rear cover, and solar cells provided proximate to at least one of the nonviewing area of the movable front cover and the nonviewing area of the stationary rear cover.

Abstract: In a solar cover for a motor vehicle roof (2) with a carrier plate (10), a plurality of solar cells (18) located on the carrier plate, and a cover layer (36) which covers the side of the solar cells facing away from the carrier plate, there is a plastic injection molded part that service as the carrier plate (10) and in which contours (12, 16) are molded for positioning of the solar cells (18). The contours prevent the solar cells from becoming off-center during installation of the solar cover.

Abstract: A transparent roof module for a motor vehicle roof where the transparent roof module includes a transparent pane for covering a roof opening, the cover including a nonviewing area and a viewing area through which objects are viewable through the cover, a transmission reducing layer provided on the viewing area of the transparent pane for reducing transmission of at least one of infrared and visible spectral range through the viewing area and solar cells provided at the nonviewing area of the transparent pane.

Abstract: In a solar cover (14) for a motor vehicle roof (10) with an outside pane (20), an inside cover (18) and a plurality of solar cells (16) which are located between the outside pane and the inside cover, both the outside pane and also the inside cover being made of plastic, the outside pane (20) or the inside cover (18) is formed of an injection molded part (34) which has reinforcement and/or attachment elements (24, 29, 32) which are made in one piece with the outside pane (20) or the inside cover (18).

Abstract: A motor vehicle roof with a closure element (14) for a roof opening (12) which can be displaced between a closed position and an open position and which is provided with a primary solar generator (24). The closure element (14) is made such that an additional element (32) which has an additional solar generator (34) can be coupled to the closure element in the open position of the closure element, such that the additional element assumes a working position on the outside of the vehicle to generate solar current.
