Abstract: A roof for a motor vehicle, in particular for a passenger car, having a roof skin, a support structure, over which the roof skin engages, and at least one sensor module having at least one environment sensor for detecting the vehicle environment. The sensor module is mounted on the support structure and a tolerance-compensating element, which defines a relative position between the support structure and the sensor module, is disposed between the support structure and the sensor module.

Abstract: A roof module for a motor vehicle roof having a panel component whose outer surface at least partially forms the roof skin of the vehicle roof and serves as an outer sealing surface of the roof module, at least one environment sensor configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals through a see-through area for detecting a vehicle environment around an optical axis of the environment sensor, and at least one cleaning nozzle configured to clean the see-through area. Viewed in the direction in which the optical axis of the environment sensor points, the at least one cleaning nozzle is disposed in such a manner in an area of the panel component in front of the see-through area that the at least one cleaning nozzle can be adjusted between a retracted position and a deployed position by means of at least one drive kinematics unit.

Abstract: A roof module for forming a motor vehicle roof, the roof module having a panel component whose outer surface at least partially forms the roof skin of the vehicle roof, and an opening in which at least one environment sensor is disposed, the environment sensor being configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals for detecting the vehicle environment. The at least one environment sensor is displaceable between a retracted position and a deployed position. A weather strip is disposed circumferentially at the opening, and the at least one environment sensor may have a cover which is in contact with the weather strip when the at least one environment sensor is in the retracted position to seal the opening, and a contact surface which is in contact with the weather strip when the at least one environment sensor is in the deployed position to seal the opening.

Abstract: A roof module for forming a vehicle roof on a motor vehicle has a panel component whose outer surface at least partially forms the roof skin of the vehicle roof, the roof module has at least one environment sensor, and the environment sensor being configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals for detecting the vehicle environment, and the panel component being made of a material which is impermeable to the electromagnetic signals of the environment sensor. The panel component has at least one cutout through which the electromagnetic signals of the environment sensor can pass.

Abstract: A roof module for forming a motor vehicle roof, the roof module having a panel component whose outer surface at least partially forms a roof skin of the vehicle roof, the roof module having at least one environment sensor configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals for detecting the vehicle environment. The environment sensor is disposed below the roof skin formed by the panel component, the roof module having a cooler configured to discharge exhaust heat emitted by the environment sensor and/or heat introduced from outside from the environment sensor.

Abstract: A roof module for forming a vehicle roof on a motor vehicle, the roof module having a panel component whose outer surface at least partially forms the roof skin of the vehicle roof, the roof module having at least one environment sensor configured to send and/or receive electromagnetic signals for detecting the vehicle surroundings. The environment sensor can be disposed below the roof skin formed by the panel component, the roof module having at least one support module, and at least two environment sensors being jointly mounted on the support module.

Abstract: A roof module for a motor vehicle may have a roof skin, a roof frame on a vehicle body and have at least one transverse frame part extending in the transverse roof direction and a longitudinal frame part extending in the longitudinal roof direction on either side of a longitudinal center roof plane, and a roof opening system having a lid element configured to be displaced on guide rails, which are part of the longitudinal frame parts of the roof frame, in the longitudinal roof direction relative to the roof frame, and/or a solid roof element having a transparent see-through portion and being rigidly connected to the roof frame, having a sensor system comprising at least one sensor module which has at least one environmental sensor and is located outside of the roof opening and/or outside of the transparent see-through portions and is covered by a cover element.

Abstract: A convertible top linkage which is displaceable between a closed and position, and having a link assembly on either side of a vertical longitudinal center plane of the top, each link assembly having a first and second link, the first link and the second link being pivotable relative to a common base and connected to each other via a coupling link which is hinged to the first link via a fixed joint and to the second link via a mobile joint. The second link may have a guide track for a guiding element of the coupling link, the guide track keeping the mobile joint in position relative to the second link when the two links are being pivoted in a defined angle range, the mobile joint being shifted relative to the second link when the two links are being pivoted outside of the defined angle range.
