ABSTRACT:
An air screen for vehicle sunroofs extends between the leading edges of an open sunroof panel and the vehicle's roof to regulate intake air flow and prevent potentially dangerous projectiles from being carried into the vehicle's interior along with the air flow. The air screen is formed from flexible plastic material and deflects into a storage position when the sunroof panel is pivoted from an open scoop position to a closed position. The air screen may be secured to either the sunroof panel or the roof and consists of two halves slidable relative to each other so as to permit regulation of the air flow therethrough. The air screen also functions as an air deflector to prevent wind buffeting effects when the panel is completely removed from the roof.
