ABSTRACT:
An open roof construction for a vehicle having an opening (1) in the fixed roof (2), comprises an adjustable panel (3) which, in its closed position, closes the opening (1) in the fixed roof (2) and which, by operating an adjusting mechanism, is capable of being pivoted from its closed position to a backwardly and upwardly inclined position at first and thereupon being moved backwardly into positions above the fixed roof (2), and vice versa. The panel (3) is pivotally supported at its front side by a transverse pivot shaft (26). A tilt out lever (9) is provided at a distance behind said pivot shaft (26) and is pivotally connected to the panel (3) at its upper end. The lower end of the tilt out lever (9) is at least pivotally operatively connected to a slide (7), which is slidably guided in a stationary guide (8) extending in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and is adapted to be engaged by a drive means such as a cable-like pull-push means ( 4). According to the invention the slide (7) is a control slide, which not only positively controls the movements of the tilt out lever (9) but also of a height adjusting means (27) carrying said pivot shaft (26) at the front side of the panel (3).
