Shading device for a window pane of an automotive vehicle

A shading device for a window pane of an automotive vehicle, comprising a housing including a passage and an accommodation chamber, a shading structure, lateral guiding rails, drive transmission arrangements movably guided in the lateral guiding rails, a pivotably-mounted closing lid and a control mechanism, the shading structure being displaceable between a lowered rest position and a deployed shading position in the lateral guiding rails with the aid of the drive transmission arrangements, the shading structure being lowerable through the passage into the accommodation chamber of the housing, the passage being closable by the closing lid, the control mechanism moving the closing lid, in response to a movement of the drive transmission arrangements, into an opened position, the control mechanism including a control slider movably mounted transverse to a direction of displacement of the shading structure and in operative mechanical connection to the closing lid, the control mechanism comprising a deflection device coupling the control slider to at least one of the drive transmission arrangements such that the control slider, upon a movement of the shading structure from the lowered rest position in a direction towards the deployed shading position, moves the closing lid to the opened position.
