  • Wind deflector for a vehicle
    Patent number: 9630480
    Abstract: A wind deflector for a vehicle is disclosed. The wind deflector includes at least one housing element, at least one deflector element which is at least partially received in the housing element, at least one actuator via which the deflector element is able to move in a linearly oscillating manner relative to the housing element in at least one spatial direction, and at least one sealing element via which the deflector element is sealed at least in one partial region against the housing element. The sealing element is formed as a flexible membrane which is arranged on the one hand on the housing element and on the other hand on the deflector element to be able to move with this.

  • Wind deflector for a sliding roof system
    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.
