Abstract
In a roof storage compartment cover for a storage compartment for a vehicle roof, which is movable between a closed position, in which it covers an interior vehicle space, and an open position, in which the roof is deposited in the storage compartment by a roof operating mechanism, the storage compartment cover is operable by a compartment cover operating mechanism which is mechanically linked to the roof operating mechanism by an over-dead-center operating structure, which, upon movement of the vehicle roof between the closed and storage positions, first raises the storage compartment cover to permit passage of the roof and then closes the storage compartment cover again.
