  • Patent number: 10717478
    Abstract: A rear spoiler device for a vehicle having at least one rear door includes an air guide element and an adjustment device configured to adjust the air guide element between a retracted base position that allows the rear door to be opened and an extended travel position configured to extend contours and guide air aerodynamically. The adjustment device is mounted in an articulated fashion on both a door-side joint and on a spoiler-side joint. The adjustment device has an intermediate joint provided between the door-side joint and the spoiler-side joint. An adjustment of the adjustment device from the base position to the travel position changes an intermediate joint angle formed at the intermediate joint.

  • Patent number: 9988105
    Abstract: A rear spoiler device for a vehicle with at least one rear door has a side air guiding element which can be adjusted between a retracted basic position and a travel position for contour extension and aerodynamic air guiding, a roof air guiding element which can be adjusted between a basic position and a travel position for contour extension and aerodynamic air guiding, and a coupling device for coupling the adjustment movements of the side air guiding element and the roof air guiding element. The coupling device is provided between a lower side of the roof air guiding element and an upper end of the side air guiding element. The upper end of the side air guiding element can be adjusted along the lower side of the roof air guiding element during the adjustment movement.

  • Patent number: 9834261
    Abstract: A vehicle (1) includes at least one rear door (6, 8) with a rear spoiler device (14). The rear spoiler device includes an air deflector element (15, 25, 35, 45), which is adjustable between a basic position and a drive position for extending the contour and aerodynamic air deflection. The rear spoiler device further includes one support device (18, 28, 38, 48) for supporting the air deflector element (15, 25, 35, 45) in its drive position. The support device has a four-bar linkage (18, 28, 38, 48) with at least four joints or joint axes (A, B, C, D) for adjusting the air deflector element (15, 25, 35, 45) between the basic position and the drive position.
