Zusammenfassung:	A folding convertible top for a convertible vehicle includes a rotational angle detection device disposed in a rotary hinge ( 1 ) for detection of the rotational angle between linkage arms ( 2, 4 ) of a convertible top frame that are pivotably connected with each other by a bearing pin ( 10; 22 ). A rotational angle encoder ( 8; 18; 30 ) is connected with one linkage arm so as to rotate therewith and a sensor element ( 6; 20; 32 ) is connected with the other linkage arm so as to rotate therewith. The rotational angle encoder and/or the sensor element is/are disposed adjacent to the bearing pin on respective surfaces of the linkage arms facing towards each other or within housing parts ( 24, 26 ) connected to the respective linkage arms.
