Abstract

The sun roof for an automobile has a number of solar cells attached to its surface which provide energy for charging the automobile battery or for supplying an electrical device within the automobile e.g. a fan or air conditioning unit. The sun roof is supported by an air cushion sufficient to support the weight of the solar cells provided in the gap between the automobile roof and the sun roof. The sun roof pref. incorporates a heating element supplied from the battery and used to clear snow or ice, to allow the solar cells to be used even in winter. The heating element may be actuated under control of a temp. sensor, or an internal switch.

Description

Flexibles Solarautodach Flexible solar car roof

Der Beschreibung des Hauptantrages sind folgende Punkte hinzuzufügen: Auf der Oberfläche des Sonnendaches werden unter Berücksichtigung der Grösse und des Gewichtes eine oder mehrere Solarzellen angebracht durch welche eine zugehörige Batterie geladen oder ein elektrisches Gerät (z.B. Ventilator; Kühlbox) innerhalb oder ausserhalb des Autos betrieben werden kann. Das Sonnendach ist dabei durch ein aufblasbares Luftkissen zwischen Autodach und Sonnendach abzustützen.The following points should be added to the description of the main application: On the surface of the sun roof, taking into account the size and of the weight one or more solar cells attached through which one associated Battery charged or an electrical device (e.g. fan; cool box) inside or can be operated outside the car. The sun canopy is through to support an inflatable air cushion between the car roof and the sunroof.

Um das Sonnendach auch im Winter verwenden zu können, wird die Belastung von sich ablagerndem Schnee und das %ufrieren der Scheiben dadurch vermieden, daß in das Sonnendach ein Heizdraht eingeflochten wird, welcher mittels einer Batterie und gesteuert über Temperaturfühler oder regelbarem Intervall schalter erwärmt wird und somit Schnee und Frost zerschmilzt.In order to be able to use the sun canopy in winter too, the load Avoid accumulating snow and freezing of the windows by a heating wire is braided into the sun canopy, which by means of a battery and is heated controlled by a temperature sensor or adjustable interval switch and thus melts snow and frost.
