The honeycombed polypropylene sheet is coated with silkscreen ink with the help of organoleptic qualities and its honeycombed structure for permitting generation of thermal insulation of 8 degree Celsius between two surfaces of the sheet in case of large cold.

Description

-1- La présente invention concerne un produit permettant d'éviter le dépôtThe present invention relates to a product to prevent the deposit

de givre et/ou de neige sur les pare brise avant des véhicules (véhicules légers de tourisme, véhicules utilitaires, véhicules industriels et agricoles) en période hivernale notamment en cas de température extérieure inférieure à 0 C. Le givre ou la neige en période de grand froid génère un manque de visibilité pour le conducteur du véhicule contraire aux usages et obligations du code de la route. A ce jour, un certain nombre de véhicules sont équipés de systèmes anti- givre destinés à la lunette arrière (vitre arrière) grâce à un système électrique qui chauffe la surface vitrée. Cependant aucun process, système ou concept n'est aujourd'hui commercialisé pour protéger du givre ou de la neige la vitre ou lunette avant des véhicules motorisés dit pare-brise . Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remédier à cet inconvénient. En effet, grâce à la pose de cette invention sur le pare-brise d'un véhicule à 15 l'arrêt après stationnement et après conduite de ce dernier (le pare brise étant propre et libre de tout givre ou neige grâce au chauffage du véhicule et à l'action des balais d'essuie-glaces). En outre, il sera également possible de placer le dispositif ou invention sur le pare brise avant d'un véhicule notamment en période hors gel ou température supérieure ou égale à 0 C.  Frost and / or snow on the front windshields of vehicles (light passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, industrial and agricultural vehicles) in winter, especially in the event of outside temperatures below 0 C. Frost or snow during the winter very cold generates a lack of visibility for the driver of the vehicle contrary to the uses and obligations of the Highway Code. To date, a number of vehicles are equipped with anti-icing systems for the rear window (rear window) through an electric system that heats the glass surface. However no process, system or concept is marketed today to protect frost or snow front window or bezel of motorized vehicles said windshield. The device according to the invention overcomes this disadvantage. Indeed, thanks to the installation of this invention on the windshield of a vehicle stopped after parking and after driving the latter (the windshield is clean and free of frost or snow thanks to the vehicle heating and the action of windshield wipers). In addition, it will also be possible to place the device or invention on the front windshield of a vehicle especially in frost-free period or temperature greater than or equal to 0 C.

20 La lunette avant (ou pare-brise) du véhicule ainsi équipé de l'invention résistera au givre ou à l'enneigement (qui ont lieu principalement la nuit). La pose de cette invention nécessite au préalable de positionner les balais d'essuie-glace en position marche avant de couper le contact du véhicule afin de maintenir le dispositif ou invention en place et d'éviter que ce dernier 25 ne se déplace ou ne s'envole (Cf figure 1). Après enneigement ou givre, il suffit de déplacer vers l'avant les balais d'essuie-glace pour retirer l'invention. Cette dernière pourra après pliage (grâce aux rainants prévus à cet effet) et pose d'un élastique de fermeture être rangée dans le coffre du véhicule (Cf. figures 2 et 3).The front window (or windshield) of the vehicle thus equipped with the invention will withstand frost or snow (which take place mainly at night). The installation of this invention requires first to position the wiper blades in the ON position before cutting the vehicle contact to maintain the device or invention in place and to prevent the latter 25 from moving or (see Figure 1). After snow or frost, simply move the wiper blades forward to remove the invention. The latter can after folding (thanks to the rainers provided for this purpose) and the installation of a closure elastic be stored in the trunk of the vehicle (see Figures 2 and 3).

30 Le conducteur pourra alors repositionner les balais d'essuie-glace en position contre le pare brise. Le pare brise avant du véhicule étant absent de tout givre ou neige sur la surface couverte au préalable par l'invention, le conducteur disposera de suite d'une visibilité accrue.The driver will then be able to reposition the wiper blades in position against the windshield. The front windshield of the vehicle being absent from any frost or snow on the surface covered in advance by the invention, the driver will subsequently have increased visibility.

35 L'utilisation de cette invention ne dispense pas cependant le conducteur du véhicule de s'assurer qu'il dispose d'une visibilité parfaite pour prendre la route (dégivrage des vitres latérales, de la lunette arrière, des rétroviseurs ...) conformément aux obligations du code de la route. Notons ici que l'invention pourra également être utilisée sur la lunette arrière 40 du véhicule si cette dernière est équipée d'un balai d'essuie-glace. Pour l'utilisation sur la lunette arrière l'on procédera à la pose et à la dépose de l'invention de façon identique que pour l'usage sur le pare brise avant. 2906761 -2- Les dimensions de l'invention peuvent varier selon les cas, l'on retiendra cependant un format standard déplié de 117 x 65 cm (soit 18 x 60 cm replié) qui correspond au format usuel de besoin de visibilité à l'avant sur la plupart 5 des véhicules, et plus principalement pour les pares brise avant des véhicules légers de tourisme. L'invention sera dans la plupart des cas sera réalisée à l'aide de feuilles de polypropylène alvéolée d'un poids de 450 grammes par mètre carré). Ces feuilles d'un format façonné de 117 x 65 cm pourront être imprimées ou non 10 (logo, marque(s), mode d'emploi...) et comporteront quatre rainants ou pliages pour faciliter le déploiement pour installation et le pliage pour rangement de l'invention. Ce dispositif est léger (environ 375 grammes) ce qui facilite son usage. Le dispositif ou invention sera maintenu par un élastique en position fermée 15 ou rangée, évitant ainsi un trop grand encombrement pour le stockage et la manipulation de l'invention. Les caractéristiques des feuilles de polypropylène alvéolée ou Akilux ou encore Coroplast sont aujourd'hui reconnue pour leur légèreté, leur robustesse et leur souplesse et leur résistance à l'humidité des intempéries 20 (pluie, neige, verglas ...) ce qui permet à l'invention d'être parfaitement étanche, de résister à l'eau, au gel et au froid (test réalisé à û 23 C) et d'avoir une longue durée de vie (usage fréquent pendant plusieurs années) assurant ainsi qualité et durabilité à l'invention. En outre j'ai découvert que cette matière, grâce à ces qualités 25 organoleptiques et à sa structure alvéolaire, possède des qualités d'isolation thermique non reconnues à ce jour .En test effectué en laboratoire j'ai découvert que cette matière permet de générer une isolation thermique de plus de 8 C entre les deux faces de la feuille en cas de grand froid (tests effectués de -1 C à -23 C).The use of this invention does not however exempt the driver of the vehicle to ensure that it has a perfect visibility to hit the road (defrosting the side windows, the rear window, mirrors ...) in accordance to the obligations of the Highway Code. Note here that the invention can also be used on the rear window 40 of the vehicle if the latter is equipped with a wiper blade. For use on the rear window it will proceed to the installation and removal of the invention in the same way as for use on the front windshield. The dimensions of the invention may vary depending on the case, however, we will retain a standard unfolded format of 117 x 65 cm (18 x 60 cm folded) which corresponds to the usual format of visibility need at the front on most 5 vehicles, and more mainly for the pares breeze front passenger light vehicles. The invention will in most cases be achieved using polypropylene sheets alveolée weighing 450 grams per square meter). These 117 x 65 cm shaped sheets can be printed or not 10 (logo, brand (s), instructions ...) and will include four rainings or foldings to facilitate deployment for installation and folding for storage of the invention. This device is lightweight (about 375 grams) which facilitates its use. The device or invention will be held by an elastic in the closed position or row, thus avoiding too much space for the storage and handling of the invention. The characteristics of honeycomb polypropylene sheets or Akilux or Coroplast are now recognized for their lightness, robustness and flexibility and their resistance to humidity 20 (rain, snow, ice ...) which allows the invention to be perfectly waterproof, to resist water, frost and cold (test performed at 23 C) and to have a long life (frequent use for several years) thus ensuring quality and durability to the invention. In addition I discovered that this material, thanks to these organoleptic qualities and its honeycomb structure, has thermal insulation qualities unrecognized to date. In laboratory test I discovered that this material can generate thermal insulation of more than 8 C between the two faces of the sheet in case of extreme cold (tests carried out from -1 C to -23 C).

30 Cet effet isolant renforce les qualités de l'invention .Ce qui n'est n'est pas le cas d'autres matériaux (carton , papier, pvc souple ...) qui se détériorent à l'humidité (papier,carton) ou qui ne génèrent pas un pouvoir isolant suffisant (pvc souple).This insulating effect reinforces the qualities of the invention. This is not the case with other materials (cardboard, paper, flexible pvc, etc.) which deteriorate with moisture (paper, cardboard). or which do not generate sufficient insulating power (flexible PVC).
