ABSTRACT:
A closing apparatus for a convertible roof of a convertible vehicle comprises two locking organs (9, 10), which in the closing position of the folding roof (1) each engage an anchoring bracket (11, 12) at the windshield frame (3) and by means of at least one operating handle (15) lock in the closing position and disengage from the anchoring brackets (11, 12) when opening. For this purpose, the locking organs (9, 10) are connected over a connecting element (14), which imparts a synchronous swivelling motion and to which an operating handle (15), which is constructed as a one-hand swivelling handle, is centrally assigned.
