DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a sunshade for covering the roof and windows of an automobile from the outside, in which four blinds are mounted on the roof and a portion which cannot be covered by the blinds is trapezoidal. The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a awning covered with a cloth.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Sunshades that cover the windows and roofs of automobiles from the outside without any gaps include those that fold plates and cloth on the roof, those that use curtains around windows, and those that have double roofs. A material that pulls out a cloth with a spring-like plate, etc., has been published or our company is applying. Those using cloth-like blinds that cover a part of the window are disclosed.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The main object of the present invention is to develop a shade with blinds which is particularly suitable for box-shaped vehicles. At this time, a trapezoidal gap formed when a blind having the same width up and down as used for a window of a house is used for an automobile is to be covered. The whole is to move by a simple mechanism, to have a beautiful appearance when stored and covered, and to prevent vibration and wind noise during traveling. Make sure that the lower frame of the blind does not hit the car by the wind when covered. The above is the purpose and subject of the present invention.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned object, in the present invention, four blinds used for windows of a house are used on the roof of a car, and the shaft of the blinds is a bevel gear or a universal joint (universal joint). (Joint). A frame is attached to the lower part of the blind cloth, a rod that goes in and out of the frame is attached, a curved rod is attached to the tip of the rod, and a frame that expands and contracts is attached to the lower part of the blind cloth as a whole. In this state, a large trapezoidal gap is formed on the front side surface of the automobile, and a small gap is formed on the rear side. To cover the gap of this trapezoid, attach a bar extending parallel to the frame to the curved bar, attach the lower part of the trapezoidal cloth to this rod, and wind the upper part of the trapezoidal cloth attached to the roof of the car Hoist on the machine. This winder has a structure in which a cloth is wound around a roll, and a type in which the cloth is stretched and stored on a roof with a wire or the like. If the bar attached to the curved bar becomes longer, an excessive force is applied to the bar, and the bar is easily bent or broken. Therefore, the other end of the bar is mounted on a moving ring that slides along the frame. Cut out the top of the transfer ring so that the blind cloth attached to the frame does not hit the transfer ring.

[0005]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings based on examples. Figure 1 mounts blinds (1, 2, 3, 4) on the roof of a car (9),
It is the top view and side view which show the state which stored the blind cloth. As shown in the details of this figure, the ends of the shafts of the blinds are connected to the four corners by bevel gears, and when one blind is moved, all the blinds move.

FIG. 2 shows a method of mounting blinds (1, 2, 3, 4) on the roof of a car (9), and applying a blind cloth (1).
2, 13, 14, and 15) are shown in a top view and a side view in a state where they are completely lowered. In this figure, as in FIG. 1, the trapezoidal cloth has not yet been attached, so there are gaps at the four corners that are not covered with the cloth. Blind cloth (12, 1
3, 14, 15) at the lower end of the frame (5, 6, 7,
It stops at 8).

In the case of FIG. 1, bars (16, 17) are contained in the frames (5, 6, 7, 8), but in the case of FIG.
6, 17) are fully drawn out. Thereby, the blind cloth (12, 13, 14, 15) is completely pulled down. If the blind cloth hits the car body or window, replace it with metal or plastic, soften the cloth material, or lift the cloth so that it does not hit it.

In FIG. 2, the rod (16) is short but the rod (1)
7) is long, so the rod (17) needs to be supported at both ends. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of the periphery of the bar (17), in which both the trapezoidal cloth (20) and the blind cloth (14), which are not coplanar, are drawn to aid understanding. In this figure, the rod (17) is out of the frame (7) by about 80% and is moving in the direction of the arrow. This allows the blind cloth (1
4) and the trapezoidal cloth (20) also move in the directions of the arrows.

The moving ring (19) has a curved bar (10) at one end.
And connected to the curved bar (10) by a rod or pipe, the other end of which is secured to the moving ring (19), the curved bar (10).
Move with. The transfer ring (19) and the pipe are partially cut out to make a way for the blind cloth (14) to pass. In this way, the base of the trapezoidal cloth (20) is
0) and the moving ring (19), the bottom of the trapezoidal cloth (20) can be moved by the movement of the rod (17).

The upper side of the trapezoidal cloth (20) is moved up and down by a hoist mounted on the roof. The structure of the winder is a trapezoidal cloth (2
0) and a rod is attached to the upper side of the trapezoidal cloth (20), and the rod is pulled up with a wire. The trapezoidal cloth (20) rolls up and down diagonally along the oblique line of the trapezoidal cloth (20) extending upward from the curved bar (10). When pulled up by wire, it is stored flat on the roof of a car.

Since the bar (16) is short, the moving ring (19) used in the case of the bar (17) becomes unnecessary. In order to make the outer shape beautiful and to obtain the heat insulating effect of the roof, the roof is further placed on the roof of the car, and the blinds and the hoist are stored between the roofs. When the frames (5, 6, 7, 8) and the curved bars (10) are put out of the roof and placed,
Blind cloth (12, 13, 14, 15) or trapezoidal cloth (2
0) place brushes, rubber, hairs, etc. wherever you go in and out between the two roofs so that the top roof does not move up and down.

In FIG. 3, if a spring is put in the frame 7 and the rod (17) is pushed out, the cloth spreads down just by lowering the cloth, and the frame moves down to the body of the automobile. I do not hit. In this state, if the winder and the blind are mechanically connected to each other and the rotation of the blind is transmitted to the winder, if one of the frame and the curved bar is manually moved up and down, the whole is moved. Furthermore, if one part is driven using a motor, all parts will move.

Instead of the springs in the frames (5, 6, 7, 8), a motor is inserted in and out of the rods (16, 17), and the rods (16, 17) are controlled by hydraulic pressure or pneumatic pressure. Since it is easily conceivable, those modified in this manner are also included in the present invention. It is easy to hit the frame when the rearview mirror is out, but recently vehicles that fold the rearview mirror have been released. Also, rods (16, 17)
If the motor is controlled by a motor, hydraulic pressure, or pneumatic pressure, the rods (16, 17) can be extended shortly after the rearview mirror has been reached to enclose the rearview mirror. Further, if all the cloths are made of rubber, it is possible to use four cloths and not use a wind-up machine.

Although the entire window of the vehicle can be covered by the above method, if the wind hits strongly in the covered state, the frame or the rod may hit the body of the vehicle. There are the following as measures for this.

A: Reinforce the contact area in advance or attach a soft cushion material. B. Attach an air bag, sponge, or car to the curved bar (10) or the frame (5, 6, 7, 8) and put it in and out as necessary. C. The rod is controlled by the motor so that the frame or rod does not move across the body of the car between the frame and rod. D. Attach a wire concealed in a rain shield of a car or a joint of an iron plate to a curved bar (10), and use the wire to form a curved bar (1).
0) is fixed to each corner. E. Attach a groove or stop to the rearview mirror and stick (17)
Is fixed. F. Attach a resilient plate to the curved bar (10) or frame, and put the other end of the plate in and out of the roof. If the above-mentioned plans A, B, C, D, E and F are selected and used, measures can be taken.

When the vehicle is run with the frame stored on the roof, the frame may vibrate. In order to solve this, a cushion is provided at a portion where the frame contacts, or a curved bar is fixed with a C-shaped fitting or a fitting that opens and closes. Furthermore, if a frame or a curved bar is stored between the roofs, and the frame or the curved bar is sandwiched and fixed with a cushion between the upper and lower roofs, the vibration is eliminated. In this case, a mechanism for moving the upper roof up and down is required.

[0015]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it has the following effects. A shade that covers the entire surface of the window suitable for box-shaped cars can be made. Since the structure is simple, it can be easily made either manually or automatically.
Strong against vibration and beautiful.
