Abstract
A tarpaulin superstructure is provided for use with a movable substructure, such as a truck, a trailer, a semitrailer, a railway wagon, a dump truck, or a container. The tarpaulin superstructure includes a top frame to which a tarpaulin made of weather-resistant material can be attached, where the top frame has multiple struts which can be moved along one or more guides, and where the end of the top frame has an end runner which can be raised to open the superstructure and lowered to close the superstructure. A tarpaulin superstructure is also provided where the end runner is not lifted by the airstream, as an air deflection part is arranged at an end of the end runner so that the airstream is converted into a force in the closing direction of the end runner.
