ABSTRACT:
A rollover protection system for a passenger car, particularly for a convertible, includes a headrest 2 assigned to a vehicle seat and a rollover bar 1 which can be translationally displaced from a lowered inoperative position upwards into its supporting position. In its inoperative position, the rollover bar is accommodated with its upper section in a downwardly open recess 6 of the headrest 2. The recess 6 is closed in the upward direction by a flap 9 which can be swivelled away when the rollover bar 1 is moved out. The rollover bar is supported on the vehicle body 5 not by way of the backrest structure but directly. The new method of construction permits a simplified mounting of the whole system, a high operational reliability and an inconspicuous design.
