ABSTRACT:
A lowerable motor vehicle roof with two rigid roof elements (4, 6) which are located in succession in the closed state. The first roof element (4) can be moved via a driving connecting rod mechanism (10), which is made as a double rocker and which engages the sides of the front roof element, to the rear into a stowed position which is lowered in the convertible top compartment (14). The rear roof element (6) is coupled to the front roof element (4) via a connecting rod (28) which is connected to the connecting rod mechanism (10) and is guided on it via a sliding guide (34, 32) such that the rear roof element (6), when the front roof element (4) is moved, first, travels into a position which overlaps it and is then entrained into the stowed position. The closing of the vehicle roof has the reverse sequence of motions.
