Abstract: A cabriolet includes a displaceable roof that can be secured in its closed position on a windscreen frame. To secure the roof, the cabriolet is equipped with at least two displaceable engagement bodies and at least one associated drive, which interacts with the engagement bodies to transmit the drive force via intermediary elements having a component that extends in the transverse direction of the vehicle. The drive includes a drive member, which is generally parallel to the transverse direction of the vehicle on the plane of the intermediary elements and which is used to displace a gear that controls the displacement of one or more intermediary elements by means of a coupling member that lies on the plane of the drive member.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cabriolet vehicle having a roof that can be stored underneath a cover part in an open position, at least two displaceable engagement organs and an associated drive being provided to secure a closed cover part. The drive interacts with the engagement organs to transmit a driving force through a force transmission element having a component that extends in the transverse direction of the vehicle. A driven organ can lie in a transverse direction of the vehicle and generally on the same plane as the force transmission elements. In addition, a gear mechanism can be displaced by a rectilinear coupling organ that is connected to the force transmission element and runs parallel to the drive organ.

Abstract: The invention relates to a cabriolet vehicle comprising a roof that can be stored underneath a cover part in the open position, at least two displaceable engagement organs and an associated drive being provided to secure the closed cover part. The drive interacts with the engagement organs to transmit the driving force, by means of a respective force transmission element comprising a component that extends in the transverse direction of the vehicle. Said cabriolet is characterized in that the drive comprises a driven organ lying approximately in the transverse direction of the vehicle on the plane of the force transmission elements and that a gear mechanism, which diverts the displacement direction for the second force transmission element, can be displaced by means of a rectilinear coupling organ that is connected to the first force transmission element and runs parallel to the drive organ.
