Abstract
A wind guard is disclosed for a convertible which is arranged behind a row of seats, extends up beyond this row of seats and runs over the entire width of the interior space and which is formed by a stretched, elastically deformable net which effects a retardation of the air flow appearing from the rear. To further develop a net used here, with regard to an optimum influence on the air flow appearing from the rear, the portion of the clear passage openings to the total net area is about 30 to 35%, the individual passage openings are defined all round by webs extending approximately at right angles to one another and having a round to oval cross-sectional shape, and the wall thickness of the webs is about 0.15 to 0.3 mm.
