ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an open roof-construction for a vehicle having a roof opening, comprising a panel, which is movable from the closed position in the roof opening to a rearwardly and downwardly inclined position, from which the panel is displaceable to a completely or partially opened position under the fixed roof, whereafter the panel may be returned again to the closed position, while furthermore the panel can be moved from the closed position to a rearwardly and upwardly inclined ventilation position and from this ventilation position can be moved back again to the closed position, while for displacing the panel a pull-push means on at least one side engages a slide plate which is guided in a stationary, substantially horizontal rail, the panel being displaceably supported near its front side, while the panel and the slide plate are connected with each other at a distance from the front side of the panel by a relatively pivotally moveable two leg link connection means having a guide pin on one leg, which engages a guide slot in the slide plate and an oppositely facing guide peg on the other leg which engages a stationary guide slot, said connection means being pivotably connected to the panel by means of a transversely extending pivot shaft.
