Estimating the term…
A motor vehicle roof with a cover (14) which has a closed position in which it closes a roof opening (12) in a fixed roof skin (10), and which can be raised for ventilation purposes, and with an adjustable headliner part (16, 116) which can be both moved from a closed position in which it blocks viewing of the cover from the motor vehicle interior (18) and an open position in which it exposes the roof opening or the cover. The headliner can also be raised with the cover to increase the ventilation function. A coupling mechanism is provided for coupling the headliner to the cover for entraining the headliner to rise with the cover but is disengageable for uncoupling of the headliner part from the cover for enabling longitudinal movement of the headliner relative to the cover into said at least one pushed-back position. Engagement and disengagement the coupling mechanism can be position dependent or can be manually actuated.
Motor vehicle roof comprising a cover, which has a closed position closing a roof opening in a fixed roof skin and a raised position for ventilation of a motor vehicle interior space, an adjustable headliner part which is displacable from a covering position in which it blocks viewing of the cover from the motor vehicle interior space to at least one pushed-back position in which the cover is at least partially exposed, and a coupling mechanism for coupling the headliner to the cover for entraining the headliner to rise with the cover to increase said ventilation, said coupling mechanism being disengageable for uncoupling of the headliner part from the cover for enabling longitudinal movement of the headliner relative to the cover into said at least one pushed-back position, wherein the headliner part is guided for displacement in a guide means which comprises a guide element which is mounted to pivot in a raising direction of the headliner part.
