Abstract: The invention relates to a safety net device with a housing, in which a winding shaft is rotationally mounted. The winding shaft is pretensioned by a spring motor in the direction of winding of a safety net which is fixed to the winding shaft. The other edge of the safety net which is fixed to the winding shaft. The other edge of the safety net is connected to a pull bar which is suspended in the recesses in the car body. In order to minimize the effort required by the user to suspend said device, a holding device absorbs at least part of the pull-back force when the safety net is wound back into the housing immediately after the safety net has been pulled out of the housing to enable the pull bar to be suspended in the recesses. The holding device can be released at will in order to roll up the safety net back into the housing.

Abstract: A separating device (13) includes a separating net or a separating grid (14) of a flexible material. On two edges (16, 17) of the separating net (14) that run parallel to one another, in each case a stiffening strut (19, 21) is provided. One of the two stiffening struts (19) serves for the anchoring of the separating device underneath the vehicle roof while the other stiffening strut (21) is anchored at a distance from the roof lining, for example on the (rear) seat back or on the floor of the load compartment. The two stiffening struts (19, 21) contain in each case a hinge (30). In this manner the separating device (13) can be folded up along its width and thereupon rolled-up. A packing device (96, 97) in the form of a pocket provided on the separating device (13) serves for securing of the folded separating device (13) in the packed position.

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: In a retaining net arrangement the lower edge (16) of the retaining net (13) is fixed in the vehicle with two anchoring elements (24). To the anchoring elements (24) there belong two non-extensible tension elements which are held in the suspended state under a corresponding pre-stressing state by pre-stressing elements. An automatically acting clamping device leads both the pre-stressing forces for the tensioning of the retaining net into the car body (7) and also the increased forces which arise when an object is flung against the retaining net (13).

Abstract: A roller blind (15) comprising a spring actuated roller blind for the luggage area (2) of a vehicle which includes a positive or compulsory guiding device (27) to which the front edge of the roller blind (17) is detachably connectable. The positive guiding device (27) ensures that the roller blind (17) can be moved upwardly to an intermediate position when the tailgate (8) is opened in order to provide easy access to the luggage area without having to fully roll the roller blind (17) back into the roller blind housing (16).

Abstract: The invention relates to a safety net device (9) with a housing (11), in which a winding shaft is rotationally mounted. The winding shaft (13) is pretensioned by means of a spring motor (14) in the direction of winding of a safety net (12) which is fixed to the winding shaft (13). The other edge of the safety net (12) is connected to a pull bar (21) which is suspended in recesses (24) in the car body. In order to minimize the effort required by the user to suspend said device, a holding device (25) absorbs at least part of the pull-back force when the safety net (12) is wound back into the housing (11) immediately after the safety net (12) has been pulled out of the housing (11) to enable the pull bar (21) to be suspended in the recesses (24). The holding device (25) can be released at will in order to roll up the safety net (25) back into the housing (11).

Abstract: A stowage device in the form of a storage receiving net is attached at a vehicle storage space. A supporting structure is associated with an open side of the receiving net, to spread the open side in a functional position that exposes the interior of the pocket.

Abstract: A safety net arrangement is provided with a load-indicating arrangement (25) in order to signal to the user that forces have acted on the safety net which possibly can lead to a prior damage. The load-indicating arrangement (25) cooperates with the anchoring members (21) with which the front edge of the safety net is to be anchored in the vehicle. For the load-indicating arrangement (25), the deformation of these anchoring members (21) is utilized in such manner that a deformation of the anchoring members (21), regardless of whether it is permanent or elastic, going beyond a certain measure blasts the signaling member (42) out of its rest position.

Abstract: A rolling cover has two end caps movable toward one another. The movability of the end caps toward one another and/or away from one another serves to make it possible to easily lock the rolling cover in corresponding vehicle-side receiving pockets or to remove the rolling cover therefrom. An actuating mechanism is present to which the two end caps are additionally joined. This actuating member permits the end caps to be moved in an ergonomically favorable manner by a single hand.

Abstract: A safety net apparatus for preventing objects from being flung from a luggage compartment into the passenger space of a motor vehicle. The apparatus includes a safety net which can be pulled out and used at different pull out lengths from a winding shaft rotatably supported within a housing of the apparatus. The winding shaft includes a blocking device adapted for blocking rotation of the winding shaft as a consequence of an object being flung into the safety net for preventing further unwinding of the safety net from the winding shaft as a consequence of the forces acting on the net. Alternative blocking devices are disclosed which can be either manually operated, or which can be operated in response to acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle, acceleration in the rotary speed of the winding shaft, or transverse forces acting on the winding shaft.

Abstract: A cargo space covering is provided which has axially movable lateral housing parts for the fastening in vehicle-fixed holding devices. A locking device is assigned to at least one lateral housing part, which locking device, when the locking position of the lateral housing part is reached, can be changed from an inoperative position into an operative position in which the locking device exercises an additional retaining force onto the lateral housing part relative to the longitudinal axis of the housing which supplements the spring force.

Abstract: Cassette housings are provided for receiving safety nets for separating a cargo space in lateral vehicle-fixed receiving devices radially to the longitudinal axis of the housing. At least one fixing element is applied to the housing and connects the housing in a force-transmitting manner with a vehicle-fixed plane spaced with respect to the receiving devices.

Abstract: A protective device for an interior of a motor vehicle having flexible flat structure stretched in a rigid frame. The frame is mounted to move between a resting position and a protective position.

Abstract: A cargo space partition is provided between a rear compartment and a cargo space of a station wagon interior, including a retractable safety net mounted at a rear bench seat in front of the cargo space. Tilt-out elements are assigned to the side edges on both sides of the safety net, which tilt-out elements are movably arranged between an inoperative position and a tilt-out position which at least partially closes the respective free spaces at side edges of the safety net. In the tilt-out position the tilt-out elements project laterally to the outside in the mounting plane of the safety net and can be locked in the respective end positions, to thereby close the otherwise free spaces through which cargo could be thrown.

Abstract: A safety net construction used to separate a passenger compartment from an article storage compartment includes a lower marginal edge provided with a frame piece having a pair of spaced apart weakened segments that permit redistribution of tension forces applied to the safety net. The lower marginal edge of the safety net is fastened to the vehicle at fastening locations spaced closer together than the spacing of the weakened segments.
