Abstract

A cargo space cover (26) for the cargo space (18) of a motor vehicle (10), which space can be closed using a rear hatch or tailgate (12). The cargo space cover (12) has a blind-like covering element (28) which can be rolled up at least partially onto a take-up shaft (32). In order to improve the accessibility of the cargo space, the covering element (28), in the operating position, is linked at its front end to a vehicle mount and at its back end to the rear hatch (12) so that the covering element (28) is swung and unrolled from the take-up shaft (32) when the rear hatch (12) is being opened. In a preferred form, the take-up shaft is incorporated into the rear hatch or tailgate.
