Abstract:
1. A protection or shading system for a motor vehicle comprising: a base; a sheet; a rigid end element which is fastened to the sheet and is provided at a distal end of the sheet away from the base; two extension devices which are fastened on a first side to the base and on a second side to the rigid end element; wherein the extension devices are designed so as, by means of mechanical activation by means of a driving means, to transfer the system from an inoperative state, in which the sheet, the rigid end element and the extension device are each in an inoperative position, into a functional state, in which the sheet, the rigid end element and the extension device are each in a functional position; and wherein the sheet can be extended between the inoperative position and the functional position in an extension direction away from the base; and a covering panel is provided for each extension device, each of the two covering panels being coupled to the base so as to be pivotable about a respective pivot axis which is aligned orthogonally to a plane of the sheet in the functional position thereof and being pivotable into a first pivoted position in which said covering panels bear against the respective extension device in the functional position thereof or at least partially surround said respective extension device.
