Abstract:
A soft panel top assembly for a vehicle in sealing engagement with a hard top portion of a roof. The soft panel top assembly has a fixed portion attached to the vehicle and a lightweight pivotal portion that folds back to provide a quick and easy open air effect. Two door rails of the soft panel top assembly are connected to the vehicle. Two side rail linkage assemblies are attached to the header, which is secured to a windshield frame when in a closed position, and are connected at pivot points created with a bracket attached to the door rails to allow the pivotal portion to pivot to an open position. The soft panel top assembly includes a rear header that is lightweight and has a sealing arrangement that engages with the hard top roof portion and existing seal of the hard top roof portion to provide a weatherproof seal.

Claim (Index 15):
The soft panel top assembly of  claim 12 , wherein the side rail linkage assemblies each further comprise:\n a first link fixedly connected to the header, said first link also pivotably connected to one of said brackets at a pivot point on the bracket, said first link pivotable about the pivot point; a third link pivotably connected to the bracket at a rearward pivot point on the bracket, said third link pivotable about the rearward pivot point; a second link pivotably connected to the first link first link at a third pivot point, said second link also pivotably connected to the third link at a fourth pivot point, a limiting stop operably connected to one of the links; wherein the bracket, first link, second link, and third link arrangement coordinates pivotable movement of the pivotable portion between the open and closed positions, and the limiting stop prevents the pivotable portion, other than the cover, from contacting the hard top roof portion to prevent damage.
