  • Patent number: 9387750
    Abstract: An open roof construction for a vehicle comprises a roof panel that is tiltable and can be moved in a longitudinal direction of the vehicle. Two movable cover assemblies cover a free space which in a tilted position of the roof panel is formed between corresponding ones of panel side edges and opening side edges. Each cover assembly comprises three rods, a first rod in a stationary position in the vicinity of a corresponding opening side edge, a second rod having a forward end pivotally connected to the stationary roof close to the corresponding opening side edge and a rearward end slidably connected to the corresponding panel side edge and a third rod positioned inward from the second rod and is biased for an inward movement. A flexible cover member extends at least from the first rod to the second rod and from the second rod to the third rod.
