Patent number: 6283542Abstract: A solar cover of an openable motor vehicle roof with a transparent cover panel (1) which is surrounded in the edge area at least in part by a plastic frame (2), with a solar cell network (9) which is provided on the inside of the cover panel (1) and which extends into the vicinity of the cover panel edge area, and with an inside cover sheet (3) which is located in the cover panel edge area and which overlaps the solar cell network (9) with its inside edge. To prevent load application by the inner cover sheet (3) to the solar cell network (9) which leads to delamination the inside edge (7) of the inner cover sheet (3) is located in a noncontacting, overly relationship with respect to the solar cell network (9). Furthermore, the cover sheet (3) is connected by means of adhesive securely to the combination of the cover panel (1) and the plastic frame (2).Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 1999Date of Patent: September 4, 2001Assignee: Webasto Systemkomponenten GmbHInventor: Werner Påtz

Patent number: 6079771Abstract: A cover of an openable motor vehicle roof includes a cover plate which is surrounded by a plastic frame formed by foaming or injection, and which connects at least one attachment part to the cover plate. The plastic frame includes at least one sensor element which is located on one wall of the attachment part and which signals pinching of a body part or article when the closes on an object by partial deformation of the plastic frame.Type: GrantFiled: December 22, 1998Date of Patent: June 27, 2000Assignees: Webasto Systemkomponenten GmbH, Daimler Benz AGInventors: Hans Brandner, Hans Jardin, Thomas Schroferl, Volker Petri, Reinhold Mickeler, Werner Herlemann, Hans Benda

Patent number: 6073994Abstract: The invention relates to a sliding and lifting roof for motor vehicles with a cover (1) which selectively closes or at least partially exposes a roof opening (11) formed in a fixed part (8) of the vehicle roof, and with a movable gutter (4) which in the closed position of the cover engages under the rear edges of the cover (1) and a part of the fixed roof to the rear of the roof opening (11). The gutter (4) is joined by at least one elastic connection arm (5) to parts of the cover or a cover reinforcing part (3) at a distance from the rear edge (2) of the cover. In the closed position of the cover, the gutter is pressed against the underside of the cover (1) and the fixed roof part (8) by a prestressing of the connection arms (5). To ensure simple installation and provide reliable operation of the gutter (4), the connection arms (5) are made of an elastically flexible construction and are held by form-fit on the cover parts or cover reinforcing part (3).Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 1998Date of Patent: June 13, 2000Assignee: Webasto Systemkomponenten GmbHInventors: Hans Jardin, Oskar Braunsberger

Patent number: 5851051Abstract: A cover (3) of a sliding-lifting roof or a lifting roof, which serves to selectively close or, at least partially, expose a roof opening in a vehicle roof (1). The vehicle roof (1) is provided with a seal (4). A specific surface roughness (8) is provided, at least in the area of the cover front edge (7), in order to avoid squeaking or creaking noises during pivoting movement of the cover (3). This roughness, preferably, is created during injection molding or foam casting of the cover (3) by a corresponding roughness provided on a shaping surface of the mold.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 1996Date of Patent: December 22, 1998Assignee: Webasto Systemkomponenten GmbHInventors: Horst Schmidhuber, Christoph Noga

Patent number: 5810429Abstract: A vehicle roof (1) having a cover (3) which, selectively, can close or at least partially expose a roof opening (2). A liner (6) which is made of a waterproof transparent material is slidably arranged below the cover (3). Contrary to a known design, in which the transparent liner, in combination with an opaque cover, does offer a variety of options regarding light transmission of the entire vehicle roof, the vehicle roof of the present invention provides an additional ventilation possibility, in that the liner (6) has ventilation openings (21) which are designed to prevent water penetration. The ventilation openings, preferably, have rearward facing slots (23) and can selectively be exposed or closed by way of movable parts (24).Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 1996Date of Patent: September 22, 1998Assignee: Webasto Systemkomponenten GmbHInventors: Hans Jardin, Werner Paetz
