The invention relates to a door hinge with a holder for motor vehicle doors, wherein the door hinge comprises a pillar bracket attachable at a motor vehicle and a door bracket connectable with the motor vehicle door, said door bracket being connected with said pillar bracket via a hinge pin arranged at one bracket in an anti-rotational manner and rotatably arranged in the other bracket, said holder comprising a stop member carrier connected in an anti-rotational manner with the hinge pin and an engagement element supported so as to be rotatable together with the other bracket relative to said stop member carrier, said engagement element having at least one stop mark on a surface facing the stop member carrier, wherein at least one stop member biased by a spring element is arranged on the stop member carrier in such a way that it can be brought into engagement with the surface of the engagement element facing the stop member carrier. In order to provide a door hinge wherein the spring force acting on the stop members is essentially the same in all opening positions, the holder comprises at least two spring biased stop members, wherein the spring element presses at its ends on two neighboring or opposite stop members arranged on the stop member carrier.

The present invention discloses a brake device for the wheels of an automotive vehicle which includes a wheel-sided brake drum and a vehicle-sided mud guard that engages in a non-contact manner with a circumferential web into an annular recess in the end surface of the brake drum opposite the mud guard in order to provide a labyrinth-type seal. In conventional brake devices, the mud guard along with a welded annular web typically has a two-part design. In contrast thereto, the present invention proposes that the mud guard be punched and deep drawn from sheet metal and that the circumferential web be integrally designed with the mud guard by noncutting shaping.

The invention is related to an articulated joint fitting preferably for automotive vehicles with a wobble gearing to create a swivelling motion of the joint parts. As a development of the articulated joint fitting, a reduction of costs is achieved in that the spur gear wheel is composed of a plurality of elements and a simplified adjustment of the eccentric with respect to one of the articulated joint fittings is attained.

A convertible motor vehicle is provided with two rollover bars which can be swivelled out of a lowered inoperative position into an upwardly directed supporting position and back around a swivel axis fixed at the vehicle and extending essentially in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The rollover protection system can be integrated into conventional vehicle concepts in a particularly space-saving and advantageous manner and reduces the risk of injury in the case of a fast, sensor-controlling swinging-up of the rollover bars.

Motor vehicle having a rollover bar

Rollover protection for occupants of a convertible motor vehicle is formed by two rollover bars which are disposed on a base plate and can be swivelled around swivel axes extending approximately in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, approximately in the plane of the base plate. At the base plate which is installed largely in the transverse direction of the vehicle and approximately perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction, control elements for the swivelling of the rollover bars, as well as the triggering mechanisms and the locking devices for the extended rollover bars, are disposed. The rollover protection system can be pre-assembled easily, and the adjustability of all driving and locking elements is good. As a result of the flat construction, the system requires little installation space and permits a favorable moving direction of the rollover bars during the extending operation.

A lift-up sun roof, in particular for automotive vehicles, featuring a simple design and a low overall height is proposed, with a rigid cover (2) which in its closed position closes a roof opening in a roof area (1) and which is guided at lateral guide rails (5, 6) by means of siding elements (4) and is raisable with one end above the stationary roof area (1) or, at option, slidable below the said roof area (1) upon lowering of one end. In this configuration, the connection between said cover (2) and said sliding element (4) is envisaged to be effected through a lever (7, 15, 16) which is pivotable about the longitudinal axis of said guide rail (5, 6), the angle of pivoting being determined by a control ramp (9).
