The invention relates to a wind repelling system (18) for a vehicle, comprising a cross strut which is movable between a retracted neutral position and a deployed operating position, at least one adjusting lever arrangement (22) that is disposed between the cross strut (20) and a basic structure (26) while being provided with a deployment lever (32) and preferably an auxiliary guiding element (48). The deployment lever (32) and the auxiliary guiding element (48) are each hinged to the cross strut (2) via sliding/swivel joints (34, 52), each of which is loaded by a deployment spring (42,54) in order to deploy the wind repelling system. The deployment lever (32) is hinged to the basic structure (26) via a swivel joint (36) to which a lifting spring (56) is allocated. The lifting spring (56) raises the deployment lever (32) from a position in which the deployment lever (32) rests on the basic structure (26) to such an extent that the deployment springs (42, 54) can become effective.
A wind repelling system (18) for a vehicle, comprising a cross strut (20), which is adjustable between a retracted inoperative position and a deployed operating position, at least an adjusting lever arrangement (22) configured between the cross strut (20) and a basic structure (26) with at least one deployment lever (32), which is hinged via a first swivel joint (34) at the cross strut (20) and via a second swivel joint (36) at the basic structure (26), which in the operating position runs diagonally to the basic structure (26) and the cross strut (20) and abuts thereon in inoperative position, characterized in that one of the two swivel joints (34 and/or 36) of the deployment levers is formed as sliding/swivel joint and is impinged by a first deployment spring (42) exerting a force, which has an effect in the direction of adjustment loading the sliding/swivel joint (34 and/or 36) in the sense of a deployment motion of the wind repelling system (18), and that a lifting spring (56) is allocated to the other of the two swivel joints (34 and/or 36) of the deployment lever (32), which is tensioned by means of the deployment lever (32) when adjusting the wind repelling system (18) in the inoperative position.
A wind repelling system as defined in one of the previous claims, characterized in that the basic structure (26) is disposed at the front roof rail (28) and/or at a front edge of the roof opening (12).
