Patent number: 9434239Abstract: A roller blind system for a rear window of a motor vehicle, having a roller blind, a roller blind shaft rotatable about a main axis and a sheet-like structure which, in a stowed state, is wound on the roller blind shaft and which, in a functional state, is partially unwound from the roller blind shaft, and having an shelf for arranging in the rear region of the motor vehicle. The shelf has front and rear shelf portions separated from one another by a passage slot through which the sheet-like structure is moved during a movement from the stowed state into the functional state. The two shelf portions are connected to one another via a trough body and the roller blind shaft is arranged within the trough body and is rotatably mounted by bearing blocks which are fastened to, or are an integral part of, the trough body.Type: GrantFiled: December 3, 2012Date of Patent: September 6, 2016Assignee: BOS GMBH & CO. KGInventors: Olaf Buehl, Harry Weinbrenner

Patent number: 8905116Abstract: A roller blind system for a vehicle for shading a rear window, having a fabric sheet movable between stowed and functioning conditions, with a pull-out profile provided at a distal end thereof and two guide rails located on sides of the sheet, whereby the pull-out profile incorporates two sliding pieces at its opposite ends each engaged with one guide rail. The pull-out profile covers an outlet slot for the sheet. The pull-out profile has a variable length and includes a main segment bonded to the sheet and two movable end segments movable relative to the main segment by a guide. The covering face includes a main section on the main segment and side sections on the end segments. The side sections enter into a receiving pocket enclosed by the main segment when the length of the pull-out profile is reduced.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2012Date of Patent: December 9, 2014Assignee: BOS GmbH & Co. KGInventor: Harry Weinbrenner

Patent number: 8028738Abstract: A window roller blind for motor vehicles having a guide rail arrangement that also forms an interior panel of the vehicle. The interior panel has a gap that forms a guide groove for guiding movement of the window blind between open and closed positions of the vehicle. The guide groove is undercut by being formed with a slot and a larger sized chamber behind interior panel parts. The chamber is defined either partly or completely within a rail fixed to rear sides of the interior panel parts.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2004Date of Patent: October 4, 2011Assignee: BOS GmbH & Co.

Patent number: 7661455Abstract: A window shade for motor vehicles is provided that includes a base unit in which the windup shaft is rotatably supported. The base unit is also provided with coupling devices, wherein guide tubes for thrust elements originate at these coupling devices and lead to a driving motor. The coupling device contains a channel into which a plug-type pin of a corresponding guide rail that is rigidly connected to a side trim section of the motor vehicle can be inserted. The guide groove extends through the plug-type pin such that the pull bar can be arbitrarily moved back and forth between the guide rail and the coupling device after the installation when the roller blind web is respectively retracted and pulled out.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2004Date of Patent: February 16, 2010Assignee: BOS GmbH & Co. KGInventor: Harry Weinbrenner

Publication number: 20090014135Abstract: The invention relates to a lateral guide for a shading roller blind comprising at least one guide rail (14, 14?) with a first plug-in means and a connection piece (80, 80?) with a second plug-in means (801) which is complementary to the first plug-in means and is couplable thereto, the intercoupled plug-in means (801) being displaceable relative to each other to compensate for tolerance. The invention further relates to a shading roller blind with a pull-out profile, which is guided in a lateral guide.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 10, 2008Publication date: January 15, 2009Inventor: Harry Weinbrenner

Patent number: 7188659Abstract: A window shade arrangement for motor vehicles that includes plastic injection molded guide rails designed such that they may be formed with injection tools that do not require moveable cores for forming guide grooves therein. In one embodiment, the guide rail includes an outer part (41) formed with a guide groove and a support part (42) made from less deformable material than the outer part for preventing widening of and deforming of the guide groove during usage. In another embodiment, the first and second molded parts are interconnectable to define the guide groove.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2004Date of Patent: March 13, 2007Assignee: BOS GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Melf Hansen, Harry Weinbrenner, Herbert Walter, Olaf Bühl, Matthias Maier

Publication number: 20070000625Abstract: A roller blind for motor vehicles in which pulling out movement of the sheet like window shade is effected by means of motor powered thrust elements. In order to limit the movement of the thrust element in an end position if the driving motor remains switched on, an end stop element seated on at least one of the thrust elements comes into contact with a stationary end stop and blocks additional movement.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 9, 2006Publication date: January 4, 2007Applicant: BOS GmbH & Co. KGInventors: Olaf Buhl, Harry Weinbrenner, Melf Hansen, Matthias Maier, Herbert Walter
