An open roof construction for a vehicle comprises a rollo assembly. The rollo assembly comprises a rollo screen and a winding shaft for the rollo screen which is rotatable around a stationary axis of rotation. The rollo screen firstly extends in a first direction, next around a reversal member and finally back in an opposite second direction and ends at a rollo screen edge which is attached to a stationary member. The rollo screen has two longitudinal edges which, when the rollo screen is wound off, are brought into engagement with holding members. The longitudinal edges of the rollo screen each comprise a hooking member insertable into a holding groove and hook behind a narrow entrance thereof. A reversal member is provided with a device acting on at least one of the hooking member and holding groove to enable the hooking member to enter and exit the holding groove.
An open roof construction for a vehicle having a roof opening in a stationary roof part comprising a rollo assembly positioned below said roof opening and configured to cover the roof opening, the rollo assembly comprising a rollo screen and a winding shaft, said rollo screen including a rollo screen edge which is attached to a stationary member of the open roof construction, wherein an opposite edge being formed by an operating beam which is movable parallel to the roof opening in first and second directions in correspondence with an amount of rollo screen being wound on or off said winding shaft, the rollo screen having two longitudinal edges which, when the rollo screen is wound off, are brought into engagement with holding members extending alongside the longitudinal edges of the roof opening, wherein the holding members each comprise a least a holding groove having a narrow entrance, the longitudinal edges of the rollo screen each comprising a hooking member which is insertable into the holding groove and hooks behind the narrow entrance thereof, the operating beam being provided with a device acting on at least one of the hooking member and holding groove to enable the hooking member to enter and exit the holding groove.
An open roof construction for a vehicle having a roof opening in a stationary roof part, comprising a rollo assembly positioned below said roof opening and configured to cover the roof opening, wherein the rollo assembly comprises a rollo screen and a winding shaft for the rollo screen which is rotatable around a stationary axis of rotation, and wherein the rollo screen, starting from the winding shaft, firstly extends in a first direction, next around a reversal member and finally back in an opposite second direction and ends at a rollo screen edge which is attached to a stationary member of the open roof construction, wherein the reversal member is movable in parallel to said first and second directions in correspondence with the amount of rollo screen being wound on or off said winding shaft, the rollo screen having two longitudinal edges which, when the rollo screen is wound off, are brought into engagement with holding members extending alongside the longitudinal edges of the roof opening, wherein the holding members each comprise a least a holding groove having a narrow entrance, the longitudinal edges of the rollo screen each comprising a hooking member which is insertable into the holding groove and hook behind the narrow entrance thereof, the reversal member being provided with a device acting on at least one of the hooking member and holding groove to enable the hooking member to enter and exit the holding groove.
An open roof construction for a vehicle, having a roof opening in a stationary roof part, comprising at least a guide alongside the roof opening having a groove in which a translucent rod-shaped member is accommodated and which has at least one opening, the translucent rod-shaped member being lighted by a light source in order to emit light, which is visible from an interior of the vehicle through said at least one opening.
An open roof construction for a vehicle, comprising a roof opening in a stationary roof part and a rollo assembly positioned below said roof opening intended for covering the roof opening, wherein the rollo assembly comprises a rollo screen and a winding shaft, said rollo screen including a rollo screen edge which is attached to a stationary member of the open roof construction, wherein the opposite edge being formed by an operating beam which is movable parallel to the roof opening in first and second directions (D1,D2) in correspondence with the amount of rollo screen being wound on or off said winding shaft, the rollo screen having two longitudinal edges which, when the rollo screen is wound off, are brought into engagement with holding members extending alongside the longitudinal edges of the roof opening, wherein the holding members each comprise at least a holding groove having an elongated entrance opening, an edge area near each longitudinal edge of the rollo screen being insertable into the respective holding groove together with a locking member, preferably an elongated locking member, clamping the rollo screen in the holding groove, the locking member, the edge area of the rollo screen and the holding groove having at least one of a shape and dimension preventing the locking member from unintentially leaving the holding groove through the entrance opening.
