Abstract
A separating device ( ) includes a separating net or a separating grid ( ) of a flexible material. On two edges ( ) of the separating net ( ) that run parallel to one another, in each case a stiffening strut ( ) is provided. One of the two stiffening struts ( ) serves for the anchoring of the separating device underneath the vehicle roof while the other stiffening strut ( ) is anchored at a distance from the roof lining, for example on the (rear) seat back or on the floor of the load compartment. The two stiffening struts ( ) contain in each case a hinge ( ). In this manner the separating device ( ) can be folded up along its width and thereupon rolled-up. A packing device ( ) in the form of a pocket provided on the separating device ( ) serves for securing of the folded separating device ( ) in the packed position.
