In particular, a panel (4) is upwardly tilted from a closed position of an opening portion (3) by a forward movement of a rising/falling link (9), downwardly tilted from the closed position by a forward tilt pivoting of the rising/falling link while moving it rearwardly, and can be moved to a fully open position by a rearward movement of the rising/falling link (9) from the tilt lowered position. An engagement portion (10) is provided on the rear side of the rising/falling link (9), and a rise/fall reataining portion (11) for rearwardly upwardly guiding the engagement portion (10) when the rising/falling link (9) forwardly tilt pivots and retaining the rising/falling link (9) is provided on a member which is longitudinally movable following the movement of the lifters (6), the rising/falling retaining portion (10) defining a guide surface (11A) for guiding the rising/falling link (9) forwardly downward so as to cause the link (9) to pivot into an erected state.
