  • Wind deflector for a vehicle sunroof
    Patent number: 6164717
    Abstract: A wind deflector (4) for the roof opening (2) of a motor vehicle which can be closed by a displaceable panel (3), moved out into the displayed operating position by means of spring resistance. An articulated linkage arrangement (15), on which the spring resistance acts, is situated on each display arm (7) of the wind guide profile (6), these supporting the wind deflector (4) on the roof frame (9), whereby, on the one hand, the display force to be overcome during the panel closing displacement is reduced and, on the other hand, a vibration-resistant state is achieved for the wind deflector (4) in the operating position.
