Abstract: A cabriolet top (8) for a cabriolet (1) has a roof (10) which, in a closed position (ST) of the cabriolet top, upwardly bounds a vehicle interior (9) and, for an open position of the cabriolet (1), is movable into a storage position (AS) in a storage space (21). The roof (10) has a main roof part (11) and closing roof parts (12, 13) which, in the closed position (ST), form a continuous roof surface. The main roof part (11) has at least one open-edged cutout (24, 25) that is closed by the closing roof part (12, 13) in the closed position (ST). However, the closing roof part (12, 13) is displaced relative to the main roof part (11) and opens the cutout (24, 25) in the storage position (AS).

Abstract: A vehicle supporting structure (1) is provided for a motor vehicle having either a fixed roof or a movable roof. The vehicle supporting structure (1) has lateral side parts (16, 17) adjacent to the respective body pillar (2, 3), and a transverse support (6, 6?) arranged between the side parts (16, 17). A connecting component (9, 10) is inserted between each body pillar (2, 3) and the associated side part (16, 17), and the end (20) of each side part (16, 17) that faces away from the body pillar has a receiving part (21, 22, 21?, 22?) to which the transverse support (6, 6?) is fastened.

Abstract: A folding top for a vehicle comprises a roof frame which comprises at least one front frame part and one rear frame part, a top cloth and a frame link, which is coupled kinematically to the roof frame, for moving the roof frame from a storage position, in which the top is put away in a receiving space, into a closed position, in which the top spans a passenger compartment. The top cloth is at least partially connected laterally to the frame link.

Abstract: A folding top of a motor vehicle has two top bearings which are fixed on the vehicle body and on which a top linkage for the folding top is mounted such that it can be pivoted between a closed position of the top and a lowered position of the top. A pivotal rear window carrier is coupled to the top linkage in such a manner that it is raised when the folding top is closed and is lowered when the folding top is lowered. The top linkage is coupled, for the purpose of raising the rear window carrier, to front links mounted on the latter on both sides at the front, as seen in the direction of the front end of the vehicle. The rear window carrier is coupled on both sides to the top bearing by rear links, whereas the top linkage is coupled, for the purpose of displacing the rear window carrier, between the raised and lowered position, to one of the front links by in each case at least one coupling element.

Abstract: A motor vehicle contains a roll bar configuration which has at least one U-shaped roll bar, a transverse strut, and a connecting element with a receiving opening which accommodates one end of the roll bar. The connecting element can be connected releasably or nonreleasably both to the outer and to the inner body wall which is/are disposed generally vertically and/or horizontally. Furthermore, it is provided, on the connecting element, to arrange bearing points to which a foldable top and/or a belt deflecting lever can be fastened.

Abstract: A foldable vehicle top contains a top cloth and a rear window. The rear window has an outer border with a window mount to which the top cloth is fastened. A frame is provided which, in a closed position, supports the top cloth and the rear window. The frame has a recess in which the window mount is accommodated in the closed position.

Abstract: An anchoring configuration for a rear end section of a top cloth. The anchoring configuration has a fastening strip, which can be connected by a first strip section to the top cloth and by a second strip section releasably to a body element of a convertible. The fastening strip is of a flexible construction at least in some regions, and has a water collecting profile which runs in a transverse direction of the convertible and is disposed below the rear end section of the top cloth. In order to simplify the anchoring configuration, the first strip section of the fastening strip is configured as the water collecting profile.

Abstract: A displaceable roof in a vehicle, in particular a folding top in a motor vehicle, with a front first roof section for connecting to the frame of the windshield of the vehicle, a second roof section disposed after it, and two link configurations which are mounted on both sides of the center of the vehicle, connect the roof sections to each other. The link configurations contain at least two links which couple the two roof sections to each other in such a manner that the first roof section moves over the second roof section during closing or opening of the roof. The roof link configurations are mounted on both sides of the center of the vehicle in bearings fixed on the vehicle body and are articulated on the second roof section. Each roof link configuration is coupled to a link of the link configuration disposed on the same side of the vehicle, for the purpose of displacing the roof sections.

Abstract: A motor vehicle door has a lateral impact protection device with a lateral impact beam and a fastening device to connect the lateral impact beam to a door part. The fastening device has a fastening bracket being a cast part and is connected to the door part. The fastening bracket has a fork-shaped seat for receiving the lateral impact beam. A holding bolt passes through the lateral impact beam and the fork-shaped seat. The fork-shaped seat contains at least two inner surfaces which face the lateral impact beam and lie opposite one another with a spacing and a fork bottom. For ease of production, the fork-shaped seat widens with its inner surfaces in its direction pointing away from the fork bottom. The inner surfaces are configured as unfinished cast surfaces, and the lateral impact beam has a trapezoidal cross section adapted to the widening seat.

Abstract: A lowerable rear window in a folding top has a window which, during opening of the folding top, can be lowered about a horizontal axis into a depositing space of the vehicle. Lateral steering levers which are guided corresponding to the movement of the folding top during opening and closing are used for guiding the rear window. The rear window reaches directly under a vehicle body element without the need for a connection made of a folding top cover between the vehicle body element and the rear window.
