20090273209 | RETRACTABLE ROOF SYSTEM FOR VEHICLES - The present invention is directed to a retractable roof system that provides slidable roof sections for vehicles and truck bed shells/caps, where the cargo area roof panels and rear window panel (hatch above tailgate) may be moved forward and above the seating area roof section, by means of a telescoping track system. Additionally, as applied to vehicles, the roof section above the seating areas may be moved rearward and above the cargo area roof section. The retractable roof system truck bed shell/cap assembly will come in segments that can be stored and shipped in a relatively small container. The shell/cap structure is composed of metal frame members and window panels. Right and left telescoping track assemblies are mounted on the metal frame members, with roof panels secured between them. Side and front window panels are attached to the exterior of the metal frame members to form the shell/cap walls. The rear window panel is attached to the rear roof panel by the means of a hinge and will pivot up onto the rear roof panel before the roof panels are moved forward and above the truck cab. An optional lumber/sport rack set may be mounted to the top of the left and right track assemblies. | 11-05-2009 |
20100045075 | FIXED TRANSPARENT MODULE ROOF FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE - A fixed transparent module (FTM) for the roof of a vehicle having glass for cementing to the roof support surfaces to form a continuous seal; at least one compensation part running essentially parallel the roof support surface in a manner defining a space of substantially constant dimension between said outside surface of the compensation material and said roof support surface for receiving a cement layer of constant thickness; and at least one trim ring attached to said glass pane having a guide pin and attachment points, wherein said glass pane has added support, attachment points for additional features, and allowance for proper alignment of FTM to a vehicle body. Calibration stops can be added having a height that corresponds to the desired cement thickness of the cement layer. A reinforcement assembly, electric or manual sun shades can be added or, alternatively, the glass can be self darkening or use photoelectrochromic technology. | 02-25-2010 |
20100148540 | ROLL SUNSHADE DEVICE - A roll sunshade device, which includes a screen for shadowing an inner opening of a roof of a vehicle, a rotating body which is disposed ahead of the inner opening or behind the inner opening in a front-rear direction of the vehicle and rotates freely around an axis in a vehicle width direction, a turning member which is disposed at a predetermined distance from the rotating body in the front-rear direction of the vehicle and rotates freely around an axis in the vehicle width direction, and two circular wires which are disposed on both sides of the inner opening in the vehicle width direction, respectively and hung between the rotating body and the turning member, in which both edge portions of the screen in the vehicle width direction are supported by the two circular wires, respectively, and when the screen is slid in the front-rear direction of the vehicle from a state where the screen shadows the inner opening, the screen is folded along an outer circumferential surface of the turning member. | 06-17-2010 |
