ABSTRACT:
A solar roof for motor vehicles having a cover (10) with solar cells (22) which are located between an outside cover plate (20) and an inside covering (24), at least one power consumer which is supplied from the solar cells and which is separate from the solar cover (10), and a contact-making means for establishing an electrical connection between the solar cells (22) and the power consumer. The contact-making means has cover-side contacts (30) and roof-side contacts (42) which, at least in the closed solar cover end position, make an electrical connection between the solar cells and the power consumer. To make the cover-side contacts (30) as simple, space-saving and still reliable as possible, the cover-side are integrated within the solar cover (10).
