Claim Text:
1. A protection device for a storage space of a motor vehicle, having a carrier arrangement including at least one flexible planar formation supported so as to be able to be wound and unwound, the carrier arrangement being positioned so as to be secured to the storage space in vehicle-side retention receiving members, the retention receiving members being displaceable inside the storage space by a kinematic displacement system, the kinematic displacement system having opposing vehicle-side linear guides extending with a main direction component in a substantially vertical direction of the vehicle and in which vehicle-side linear guides the retention receiving members are guided, and a storage-space-base-side recess in which storage-space-base-side recess the carrier arrangement is arranged in a recessed manner in a rest position, the vehicle-side linear guides being provided in opposing side wall regions of the storage space and extending between an upper end region of the storage space adjacent a side wall bodywork member and the storage-space-base-side recess at a base of the storage space, the protection device further including a mechanical synchronization system disposed to displace the retention receiving members along the respective vehicle-side linear guides in a synchronous manner such that the carrier arrangement maintains a horizontal orientation when raised or lowered, said mechanical synchronization system including a drive device to raise or lower the carrier arrangement in the vehicle-side linear guides, a control unit which controls the drive device and a locking mechanism securing the carrier arrangement relative to the side wall regions of the storage space, the control unit, depending on a control of the drive device, releasing or locking the locking mechanism.
