Abstract

See full text

In a sliding roof or sliding lifting roof for motor vehicles, the lateral guide rails for the sliding guidance of the rigid cover and the roof frame carrying the same are entirely located below the fixed vehicle roof and are fitted closely adjacent thereto, so that neither the roof frame, nor the guide rails can reduce the free opening cross-section of the roof cutout releasing the cover following its opening. As the water channel for collecting the water penetrating via the marginal gap between the cover and the roof cutout edge is fixed only at a limited distance below guide rail, the overall height of the roof construction can be limited. As a result of the elastically deformable construction of the edge of the water channel facing the roof cutout, the guide parts of the cover or, in the case of the sliding lifting roof, the intermediate frame can pass in unimpeded manner through the elastically expandable gap between the roof cutout edge and the elastically deformable water channel edge to the guide rails.
