ABSTRACT:
A top for a convertible vehicle moveable between an open state and a closed state: The top includes a flexible top fabric, a top linkage, a laterally disposed top-cloth tensioning bracket, and a fin link including an inherently rigid structural part configured to bear longitudinal and tensile loads. The fin link is connected in an articulated manner on a rear end of the top-cloth tensioning bracket. In the closed state, the top-cloth tensioning bracket is part of a fin of the top and the fin link supports the top-cloth.
