Abstract
A cover for the access opening of a motor vehicle. The cover has a web by which the access opening is to be closed. On the sides of the access opening are attached guide rails in which the struts attached to the web travel back and forth. In order to remove or reinstall easily the web from the vehicle, there are receiving pieces which cooperate with the guide rails to receive the ends of the struts when the web is retracted. To prevent an inadvertent separation of the struts and roller web from the receiving means when the cover is removed from the guide rails, there are blocking arrangements which prevent the struts from leaving the receiving pieces unless the receiving pieces are attached to the guide rails.
