Abstract
A protective device for the interior of a motor vehicle has a protective structure which has a planar shape in a protective position and which is seated for movement by a drive mechanism between at least two positions. The protective structure is connected with at least one guide element that can be entrained by at least one coupling member with transfer structure to the drive mechanism. The at least one coupling member is provided with at least one picking-up element that acts in transverse direction to the direction of movement of the coupling member and that entrains, releases or picks up the guide element with limited entraining force during movement of the coupling member. The protective device is usable for cargo area coverings, cargo area dividers and sun-protection roller blinds.
