  • Patent number: 10821815
    Abstract: A wind guiding device for an open-top passenger vehicle is disclosed. The wind guiding device has an inherently stiff, slat-shaped wind guiding element that can be adjusted between a retracted position and at least one wind guiding position relative to a windscreen frame. Several disruptive bodies are arranged on the underside of the wind guiding element.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20180345771
    Abstract: A wind guiding device of an openable roof of a motor vehicle includes at least one inherently rigid profile which air flows around in at least one position and when the motor vehicle is moving forwards and which has at least one front edge via which the air flows around the profile. A substance surface is arranged in at least one edge region of the profile that is connected to the front edge in the back in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle.

  • Publication number: 20060163916
    Abstract: A motor vehicle sliding roof system has a wind deflector which conducts a flow of air, with flow around both sides thereof, over the entire sliding roof opening to prevent rumbling. The efficiency of the wind deflector 3 is improved by having a twist or a torsional distortion, i.e. by various profile sections being torsionally distorted with respect to each other by an angle with respect to each other about a profile axis. The wind deflector is therefore matched to a curvature of the vehicle roof running transversely with respect to the motor vehicle's longitudinal axis. Even in the side region of the sliding roof opening, the system permits a flow which is conducted away over the vehicle roof 9.

  • Patent number: 6234567
    Abstract: A vehicle roof with a roof cutout can be closed by a movable roof part arrangement, with which cutout a wind deflecting profile is associated in the vicinity of a leading edge of a wind deflecting profile, the profile being movably mounted between a resting position and a functional position. According to the invention, at least one upwardly projecting exciting edge as well as at least one elastically flexible disturbing lip located in the wake of the exciting edge are associated with the wind deflecting profile.
