A wind deflector arrangement for a roof opening, which can be closed and opened up by way of a cover, in a roof panel of a vehicle. The wind deflector can have a frame which is designed to at least partially surround the roof opening, a wind deflector hoop which is coupled to the frame such that the wind deflector hoop is rotatable relative to the frame and the roof panel about a first axis of rotation, a support element which is coupled to the wind deflector hoop and to the frame such that the support element can rotate about a second axis of rotation during a first segment of the movement of the wind deflector hoop relative to the frame and can rotate about a third axis of rotation, which differs from the second axis of rotation, during a further segment of the movement.

Wind deflector arrangement

The invention relates to a wind deflector for a roof opening, which can be closed and opened, in a roof panel of a vehicle. According to the invention it is contemplated that an elastic element, which is fixed with respect to the frame of the roof opening, engages on the wind deflector arm and applies a force thereon in of the longitudinal direction, and an arm, which at one end is connected to the wind deflector arm rotatably about the transverse direction, is mounted at the other end rotatably with respect to the frame of the roof opening in of the transverse direction. The invention further relates to a method for actuating a wind deflector.
