The invention relates to a vehicle component made of plastic, in particular a vehicle body shell component, with at least one supporting layer, with at least one outer skin and with at least one tear-resistant splinter protection layer. According to the invention, the splinter protection layer is formed as a splinter protection fabric and is embedded in the at least one supporting layer, in particular in the edge region thereof, or between two adjacent layers. The splinter protection fabric has the effect of avoiding sharp-edged breaks of the vehicle component in an accident.

Automobile component made of plastic

A roof module for motor vehicles is disclosed having an exterior skin, a material layer adjacent thereto, a spacer layer, and a circumferential plastic material.

Roof module for a motor vehicle

A motor vehicle is provided which includes a passenger compartment, a vehicle roof which in its closed position closes the passenger compartment, and a cargo bed open to the top and located behind the passenger compartment. The vehicle roof can be swiveled from its closed position into an open position in which its rear edge is located behind the passenger compartment near the cargo bed. A multiple-joint arrangement is provided for swiveling the motor vehicle roof out of the closed position into the open position and thus allowing the vehicle to be easily converted from a pick-up into a convertible. The multiple-joint arrangement includes a first part attached to the roof at or near the rear edge of the roof and a second part attached to a middle area of the roof.

Motor vehicle which can be converted from a pick-up into a convertible

A ventilation cap () for a motor vehicle roof () for ventilation of the motor vehicle interior () and a roof with such a ventilation cap, in which the ventilation cap () is formed to be oblong having an air duct with a front air opening () and with a rear air opening () which discharge above the motor vehicle roof (), the air duct being flow-connected to the motor vehicle interior () via a flow path which is formed in the ventilation cap (). The motor vehicle roof () is formed preferably as a glass roof with at least two glass surfaces (), on which the ventilation cap () is mounted essentially a central longitudinal axis.

Ventilation cap for a motor vehicle roof

A covering for the cargo area () of a motor vehicle (), especially for the cargo area () of a pick-up truck, having a roll-up element () which is opened for loading the cargo area () and which can be partially or completely closed when it is desired that the cargo area () be covered. The roll-up element () has interconnected louvers () which are outwardly arched and can be guided at its lateral sides by guide elements () with recesses () for receiving the roll-up element (). Additionally, the guide elements () can have contact elements () for applying outwardly directed pressure to the roll-up element (), the contact elements having a low friction top surface () to facilitate sliding or rolling of the roll-up element over it.
