Abstract
Systems of this kind typically are equipped with a roll bar (1) mounted within a cassette-like housing (7) which can be firmly attached to the vehicle and has two U-shaped lateral parts (8, 9) which are linked to one another at the bottom by a bottom part (10) and at the top, by a guide block (11). In order to ensure small assembly dimensions while at the same time offering a low-cost connection method, the invention provides a connection of the guide block (11) to the U-shaped lateral parts (8, 9) in the shape of a form-fit connection (8a, 11a).
