Abstract: A tilt and slide roof opening and closing device adapted to be fixed to the top of a roof comprises two pairs of carriages guided in rails by a pair of cables and a pair of slides carrying a mobile panel. The slides are articulated by a pair of links carrying three operating studs accommodated and moving in guide paths. Each link is coupled to a rear carriage to pivot freely about an axis. Each front carriage carries an operating stud accommodated and moving in a guide path. The thickness of the roof opening and closing device is less than 18 mm.

Abstract: An opening roof for automobile vehicles comprises a pair of rails, carriages mobile in longitudinal translation in the rails, a pair of slides carrying a panel adapted to close or uncover an opening in the roof of the vehicle, a pair of front links and a pair of rear links. The links are linked to the carriages by a rotation member and to the slides by members moving in guide paths formed in the thickness of the slides. Movement of the front links is desynchronized with respect to movement of the rear links to tilt the panel and slide it over the top of the roof.

Abstract: A roof opening and closing device, in particular for an automobile vehicle having a roof in which an opening is formed, comprises a pair of rails fixed on either side of the opening to the top of the roof and four carriages mobile in longitudinal translation in the rails. Four skids functionally related to the carriages are joined to a panel sliding over the roof. The skids carry studs accommodated and moving in guide paths in the carriages to raise the panel above the roof without moving it in translation and to slide it over the roof to uncover the opening.
