CA 2536753

A sunroof assembly has a frame, including two tracks, that mount to a vehicle roof. An arm is slidably mounted in each track, with each arm including attachment points for mounting a panel or a bracket holding a panel thereto. A trolley is slidably mounted in each track and engages the arm. Each trolley has a threaded bore in meshing engagement with a power screw rotatably mounted in the track. A single motor is coupled via a transmission to two flexible drive cables, each of which is connected to one of the power screws. This basic structure minimizes the component count of the sunroof, and hence its manufacturing costs.

L'invention concerne un ensemble toit ouvrant comportant un cadre, doté de deux rails, qui se monte sur un toit de véhicule. Un bras est monté coulissant dans chaque rail, et chaque bras comprend des points de fixation en vue de monter un panneau ou une équerre destinée à retenir un panneau à ces points. Un chariot est monté coulissant dans chaque rail et se couple avec le bras. Chaque chariot comporte un alésage fileté dans un engagement engrenant avec une vis mécanique montée rotative dans le rail. Un moteur unique est couplé via une transmission aux câbles d'entraînement souples, chacun desquels étant reliés à une des vis mécaniques. Cette structure de base réduit au minimum le nombre de composants du toit ouvrant, et par là même ses coûts de fabrication.
