Abstract: A cargo support having a frame element (1) for mounting in the lower area (15) of a rear window (6) of a motor vehicle (2). The frame element (1) can be mounted to have a first mounting position framing the rear window (6) on the motor vehicle (2) and a second mounting position in which it is essentially horizontal for supporting cargo (20) on the vehicle. A second frame member (5) can be provided for co-acting with the window area frame element (1) for support cargo.

Abstract: A covering for the cargo area (3) of a motor vehicle (1), especially for the cargo area (3) of a pick-up truck, having a roll-up element (2) which is opened for loading the cargo area (3) and which can be partially or completely closed when it is desired that the cargo area (3) be covered. The roll-up element (2) has interconnected louvers (4) which are outwardly arched and can be guided at its lateral sides by guide elements (10, 11) with recesses (12) for receiving the roll-up element (2). Additionally, the guide elements (10, 11) can have contact elements (15) for applying outwardly directed pressure to the roll-up element (2), the contact elements having a low friction top surface (16) to facilitate sliding or rolling of the roll-up element over it.

Abstract: An openable roof for a motor vehicle having a driver's compartment (10) with a roof cover (12) which can be moved between a closed position and an open position, and a rear wall (14) that can be pivot with respect to the driver's compartment around an axis (24) which runs in the transverse direction of the vehicle, and with a cargo bed (16) which is located behind the driver's compartment. The roof cover (12) and the rear wall (14) are joined to one another to be able to fold in the manner of a hinge, the roof cover being folded in the open position onto the rear wall and the roof cover, and the rear wall being deposited in this position in the area of the cargo bed (16).

Abstract: An openable motor vehicle roof with a set (20) of several raisable louvers (22) which are arranged in succession in the lengthwise direction of the vehicle, which lie flat side-by-side next to one another in the closed position in order to close the roof opening (10), and which can be pushed into the form of a packet in which they lay parallel to, and on top of, one another in the raised state in order to at least partially clear the roof opening. The roof opening (10) extends to underneath the equator (18) of the motor vehicle in the rear area of the motor vehicle.
