PATENT OFFICE.

The subject of the invention is a further embodiment of the patented 197296, made of Nuremberg scissors for the protective roof of vehicles and is intended for the application this canopy carrier on the vehicles known under the name »Landaulets«. In the case of the latter, the collapsible roof elements previously covered in a known manner only the rear part of the vehicle, however, do not extend over the driver's seat; if a protective roof was previously used for the latter, this was given the form a rigid ceiling independent of the collapsible part, which can be used if necessary could be repulsed.

The invention aims at such a design of the protective roof rack in landaulets, that the same a knocking back of the extending over the ao driver's seat part of the Protective roof at the same time as the folding over of the rear part of the car Protective roof enables.

The subject matter of the invention is illustrated in the drawing in an exemplary embodiment.

Fig. Ι is a side view of a landaulet superstructure designed according to the invention, with the entire roof body in readiness.

FIG. 2 is a front view of FIG. 1.

Fig. 3 is a side view broken away

ner representation, with the entire protective roof is struck backwards.

Fig. 4 shows a detail in an enlarged view.

The rear part of the protective roof carrier, which has the usual design, consists on the one hand of two vertical pillars x, which are hinged to the car body y and designed as rear guides for the windows that can be moved in the doors, and on the other hand of the well-known tire-shaped rods z to which the folded leather roof is attached. A vertical rod ä is arranged on each of the vertical pillars χ or within the same. From the upper end of these rods α extend forward in the form of Nuremberg scissors articulated members of a support frame; the upper links b of the rear element of the Nuremberg scissors are hinged to pins b ^{1 of} each of the rods α , while the lower links b ^{2 of the} same scissor element engage guide sleeves a ¹ which are slidable on the rods α. The also known vertical pillars x ¹ , which are located in front of the side doors and are also designed as guides for the sliding door windows, can be folded inwards transversely to the longitudinal direction of the car and, in their upright position, form the opening.

Claims (2)

bearing for the support frame of the roof part extending over the driver's seat. The roof element c above the side doors of the vehicle and also the roof part c1 above the driver's seat are carried directly by the members of the Nuremberg scissors in readiness, so that when the latter has swung out into the inoperative position (Fig. 3), with the members of the same almost ίο or completely in a line on the rear wall of the vehicle. The links δ and δ2 of the rear scissor element are connected to one another in an articulated manner at their intersection, while the links δ3 and δ4 of the next scissor element are articulated at their front ends. The latter are in turn combined with one another in the same way at their crossing point and their front ends ao are articulated to the links δ5, δ6 of the foremost scissor element, which are rotatably combined with one another at δ7. The carrier for the forward extension of the protective roof can be in the form of a simple frame δ8 composed of rods which either consists of one piece with the scissor members δ6 or is rigidly connected to the same. The front ends of the roof parts c, c1 are attached to the rear ends of the scissor members bs and δ5, respectively, and are thereby carried by the scissors; In addition, the front ends of the roof part c carry the cross bars d, which are connected to the two front pillars x1 either in the usual form by means of tongue and groove or in another suitable manner. In some cases it may be advisable to articulate the links of the foremost scissor elements with vertical support rods; which latter can be detachably arranged on the sides of the driver's seat or on the splashboard. Any device can be used to fix the sliding sleeves a1 on the vertical guide rods a, so that the Nuremberg scissors are held in the extended position (FIG. 1) as a support for the roof; any known means can also be used to move the roof into the ready position or to push it back into the inoperative position. A particularly suitable means consists in that chains e guided around pin wheels e1 are used (FIG. 4), the wheels being to be supported at the upper and lower ends of the vertical pillars χ. The upper sprockets are connected to each other by a cross shaft e%. The ends of the chains attack the sliding sleeves a1 and transmit their movement to the same so that, depending on the chains are guided in one direction or the other, the sleeves a1 move longitudinally on the rod α upwards or downwards and thus cause either a stretching of the Nuremberg scissors into the ready position or a push back of the same into the inoperative position as soon as one of the lower chain wheels e1 is turned in one direction or the other by means of the hand crank e3. When the Nuremberg scissors, which act as a support, collapse into the position of FIG. 3, not only the roof parts c, c1 are taken along and swung backwards, but also the support rods ζ for the collapsible leather roof, as well as the rear pillars x, while on the other hand, the front pillars x1 are laid down perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the car inwards. Γλ τ ε ν τ - A κ s ρ R ü c 11E: 1. Carrier for the protective roof of vehicles according to patent 197296, consisting of a Nuremberg pair of scissors, characterized in that the Nuremberg pair of scissors carries the roof (c, C ¹ J of a landaulet located above the windows and the driver's seat in such a way that the mutually independent parts ( c, C ¹ J of this roof with the front upper ends ie two opposing scissors elements (b ³ , b ^l ) are articulated, while the support rods (a) on which the two rear links (b, b ² ) of the Nuremberg scissors are articulated or displaceable, are arranged in or on the known rear window guides of the vehicle. 2. Existing from a Nuremberg scissors carrier for the canopy of vehicles according to claim 1, characterized in that the spreading of the Nuremberg scissors in the provision and i ° 5 turning back the same in the inoperative position by tension members guided over guide rollers or wheels (β ¹ ) (e) is initiated, which are mounted on the upper and lower ends of the support rods (a) and act on the guide sleeves (αλ) which are displaceable on the latter and are articulated to the lower ends of the rear scissor members. 1 sheet of drawings.
