Motor vehicle blind or luggage compartment cover has one or more supple stiffening ribs that can be compressed to give the blind a curved shape when deployed
The blind, containing stiffening ribs (1), has at least one rib of a supple material that allows it to adopt a curved shape when a pressure is applied to it so that the blind occupies a position close to the surface of a window or opening when deployed. The ribs can have two or more portions (11, 12) that have different sections, degrees of rigidity or are made from different materials, such as fibreglass, metal or plastic. The pressure can be applied by guide rails (2) or a drive system, the rails having a section where the distance between them is less than the length of the supple rib(s) in their rest position, and a channel that directs the curved rib(s) towards the window or opening.
