Abstract
A louver vehicle roof has several sliding and tilting louvers (to) provided for optional closure or at least partial exposure of a roof opening (). The louvers lie next to each other in the closed position and form a flat assembly. The louvers are supported and interlinked kinematically so that on exposure and closure of the roof opening () louver after louver is moved. The louvers (to) are linked with few, simple components identical from one louver to the next. Louver guide blocks () are temporarily coupled together during the closing process by stop/stop surface pairs (). During an opening process louver after louver is moved progressively and tilted up, where the louvers not yet in movement are held stationary by locking projections/locking elements ().
