Covering device for a motor vehicle

Equipment unit, in particular a drink holder, for a motor vehicle interior having at least one receiver space for receiving an object, in particular a drink receptacle, and having a covering device which is assigned to the receiver space, the covering device having at least one foldable flat structure which comprises a plurality of substantially dimensionally stable flat elements which are connected together in an articulated manner and which are displaceably guided on at least one guide device between a covered position in which the flat structure at least partially covers a receiver space and an uncovered position in which the flat structure at least partially uncovers the receiver space, wherein the at least one guide device comprises at least one control region, different guide elements of the flat elements being path-controlled differently thereon, such that in the uncovered position the flat elements are pivoted at an angle to one another and the flat structure is folded in the manner of a concertina, wherein a flexible covering structure is provided, said flexible covering structure at least partially spanning the flat elements and forming a visible surface of the foldable flat structure.

Covering device for a motor vehicle having at least one foldable flat structure which comprises a plurality of substantially dimensionally stable flat elements which are connected together in an articulated manner and which are displaceably guided on at least one guide device between a covered position in which the flat structure at least partially covers a receiver space and an uncovered position in which the flat structure at least partially uncovers the receiver space, wherein the at least one guide device comprises at least one control region, different guide elements of the flat elements being path-controlled differently thereon, such that in the uncovered position the flat elements are pivoted at an angle to one another and the flat structure is folded in the manner of a concertina, wherein the guide device comprises a main guide groove which extends longitudinally in a main direction and which in the control region branches into a first fold guide groove, to which the first guide elements are assigned, and into a second fold guide groove, to which the second guide elements are assigned, wherein the fold guide grooves extend longitudinally in a folding direction which is angled relative to the main direction.
