DRIVE November 6, 2002
Source
Roof arrangement for a vehicle, especially a car, comprises a roof frame (14), and a sliding roof (18) moving along two lateral guide paths (23) to close or at least partly open a roof opening (24). The sliding roof cooperates with a bearing device (27) hinged on each side of the sliding roof and supported via a guide element (28) in a guide path. The bearing devices each have a lever arrangement (29) fixed on the guide element and on the sliding roof in a pivot bearing (30, 31). The lever arrangement is supported on its pivot bearing against the guide element and/or the sliding roof with an elastic element (50) made of rubber elastic material. Preferred Features: The elastic element is a ring, especially an O-ring. The sliding roof has on its side facing the interior (25) of the car a preferably completely surrounding support frame (34) fixed on the roof edge region (35).
