Publication number: 20220289021Abstract: A charging flap arrangement (3) has a charging flap housing (6) which configures a recess (7) for arranging a charging plug coupling (8). The recess (7) configures the charging plug opening (5) opposite the charging plug coupling (8). The charging flap arrangement includes a charging flap (9) for closing the charging plug opening (5), an electric locking device (10) for locking the charging flap (9) which has been adjusted into a closed position, and an emergency unlocking mechanism (13) which makes opening of the charging flap (9) possible if the electric locking device (10) fails in the case of a locked charging flap (9).Type: ApplicationFiled: March 9, 2022Publication date: September 15, 2022Inventors: Alexander Schuenemann, Nils Kreiling

Publication number: 20100148533Abstract: A cabriolet vehicle (1) is provided with a roof (3) which at least in some areas has a flexible cover (6), which includes in its front roof area (7) a rigid end area (8), a so-called roof top, overlapped by a cover (6), in which the front roof area (7) can be stored in the same orientation as in the closed roof state in or partially above a body recess (9), which is bounded at least rearward by an edge (11) of auto body (4). The front roof area (7) is variable in length by at least one additional support (14) that supports roof area (6) from below, and can be displaced in the vehicle longitudinal direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 15, 2005Publication date: June 17, 2010Inventor: Nils Kreiling

Patent number: 7571951Abstract: This invention relates to a cabriolet vehicle with a roof with a flexible cover in at least parts of its area, including a front roof area which can be stored in the same orientation as in the closed state in a body recess, which is bounded on the rear by an edge of the auto body. The outer surface of the front roof area is separated relative to the rear roof area lying farther rearward and provided with a cover, and the rear edge of the front roof area is adapted to the trend of the edge of body bounding the body recess on the rear.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2005Date of Patent: August 11, 2009Assignee: Wilhelm Karmann GmbHInventors: Nils Kreiling, Sven Hollenbeck

Patent number: 7481481Abstract: A convertible vehicle with a roof having a roof covering and several lateral frame parts, which at least partially span the roof covering when roof is closed and follow each other in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, in which a rear frame part extends from a window parapet line with an upward extending component. The adjacent frame part, preceding the rear frame part in the direction of travel when the roof is closed, can be moved without a force transfer through the rear frame part by at least one drive provided for roof opening, and the rear frame part is suspended on a gear mechanism that transfers the drive force and can be moved by it.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2005Date of Patent: January 27, 2009Assignee: Wilhelm Karmann GmbHInventor: Nils Kreiling

Patent number: 7434864Abstract: A cabriolet vehicle with a roof provided which at least in some areas has a flexible cover, which includes in its front roof area a rigid area, a so-called roof top, overlapped by a cover. The front roof area can be stored in the same orientation as in the closed state in a body recess, and the body recess is bounded on the rear by an edge serving as a front edge of the additional body outer surface extending to the rear. The edge is preceded at least in parts of it area by a support step for a flexible lining running from the edge to an area of the roof. The step is adapted to the contour of the edge.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2005Date of Patent: October 14, 2008Assignee: Wilhelm Karman GmbHInventor: Nils Kreiling
