Description
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Faltverdeck für einen Personenkraftwagen nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a folding top for a passenger car according to the preamble of
Es ist ein Faltverdeck für ein Cabriolet-Fahrzeug bekannt
Die
Es ist Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Faltverdeck für einen Personenkraftwagen so zu gestalten, dass eine Zone eines Verdeckstoffs in einander zugekehrten Endbereichen von Dachrahmenelementen und einem Spannbügel des Verdeckgestänges in der Weise beeinflusst wird, dass Überbeanspruchungen des Verdeckstoffs vermieden werden.It is the object of the invention to design a folding top for a passenger vehicle in such a way that a zone of a top material in facing end areas of roof frame elements and a clamp of the top frame is influenced in such a way that overstressing of the top material is avoided.
Nach der Erfindung wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere, die Erfindung ausgestaltende Merkmale sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten.According to the invention, this object is achieved by the features of
Die mit der Erfindung hauptsächlich erzielten Vorteile sind darin zu sehen, dass das zwischen Endbereichen des Dachlenkerelements und des Spannbügels vorgesehene Steuerelement die Zone des Verdeckstoffs so beeinflusst, dass beschädigungsträchtigen Belastungen im Verdeckstoff gezielt entgegengewirkt wird. Derartige Belastungen werden durch kinematisch bedingte Anlenkpunkte der Dachrahmenelemente und des Spannbügels sowie die Anbindung des Verdeckstoffs an den Endbereichen der Dachlenkerelemente bzw. des Spannbügels hervorgerufen. Das Steuerelement wird bei definiert hohen Zugkräften des Verdeckstoffs während der Bewegung des Faltverdecks von der Schließstellung in die Offenstellung von der Grundstellung in die Winkelstellung verbracht, wodurch die Verdeckstoffspannung reduziert wird. Eine funktionsgerechte Konstruktion wird erreicht, wenn das Steuerelement als Verlängerung des Dachlenkerelements ausgeführt ist, zwischen einer Grundstellung und einer Winkelstellung bewegbar ist und zumindest einen Teilabschnitt des ersten Endbereichs bildet. Vorteilhaft ist dabei, dass das Steuerelement unter Vermittlung eines Drehlagers mit dem Dachlenkerelement zusammenwirkt und dass eine Drehachse des Drehlagers quer zur Fahrzeuglängsrichtung ausgerichtet ist. Schließlich ist die Spanneinrichtung musterhaft ausgeführt, denn sie arbeitet unter Vermittlung eines Spannzapfens und einer Stützbahn mit dem Steuerelement zusammen und hält dadurch letzteres in der Grundstellung in Lage.The advantages mainly achieved with the invention are to be seen in the fact that the control element provided between the end regions of the roof link element and the tensioning bracket influences the zone of the top material in such a way that damage-prone loads in the top material are counteracted in a targeted manner. Such loads are caused by kinematically determined articulation points of the roof frame elements and the tensioning bracket and the connection of the top material to the end regions of the roof link elements or the tensioning bracket. The control element is brought from the basic position into the angular position when the top material is high in tension during the movement of the folding top from the closed position into the open position, whereby the top material tension is reduced. A functional construction is achieved when the control element is designed as an extension of the roof link element, can be moved between a basic position and an angular position and forms at least a portion of the first end region. It is advantageous that the control element interacts with the roof link element through the intermediary of a pivot bearing and that an axis of rotation of the pivot bearing is oriented transversely to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. Finally, the clamping device is designed as an example, because it works together with the control element by means of a clamping spigot and a support track and thereby holds the control element in the basic position.
In der Zeichnung wird ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung gezeigt, das nachstehend näher erläutert wird.In the drawing, an embodiment of the invention is shown, which is explained in more detail below.
