Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a canopy for a vehicle driver's seat that covers a driver's seat of a construction vehicle or the like without a driver's cab.

2. Description of the Related Art A driver's seat covering device such as a construction vehicle without a driver's cab is generally provided to protect an operator from being exposed to direct sunlight or rain.

One of the problems with such a driver's seat cover is that the mounting of the driver's seat cover increases the overall height of the construction vehicle and exceeds the transport limit height for normal truck-mounted transportation. No protection of the back with only overhead protection, and furthermore, the covering consists only of a combination of a roof and pillars supporting the roof, and there is no new development in design.

[Problem to be solved by the present invention]
There is a solution to make the canopy device fall forward as seen in No. 6320. A method of installing a hood separate from the roof to protect it is known from Japanese Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 61-45238, but it has no sense of unity with the roof and seems to have no aesthetic appearance.

In addition, as an improved design, a canopy device with a one-leg configuration or a two-leg configuration can be seen, but both require means to support a roof that projects a roof support beam separate from the legs in the horizontal direction from the upper ends of the legs. Production costs are high. The roof is still a square flat roof with exposed pillars and no atmosphere surrounding the operator.

[Means for Solving the Problems] A first aspect of the present invention is to provide an inverted L-shaped sunshade having a flat roof portion and a transparent vertical rear wall continuous with the flat roof portion,
In a canopy of a driver's seat of a vehicle comprising a pillar supporting the sunshade, the flat roof portion is formed into a frame shape having a curved surface in which each edge of the roof is curved toward the operator side, and a rear end portion of the frame shape. The lower surface has a concave fitting groove in which an elastic body is inserted, and the transparent vertical rear wall has a curved shape with a curved surface curved toward the operator except for the end that comes into contact with the flat roof. At the same time, the end that comes into contact with the flat roof portion is inserted into the concave fitting groove into which the elastic body is inserted, and the elastic body is inserted into the fitting groove and from the lower surface of the rear end of the flat roof portion. The joint portion between the flat roof portion and the vertical rear wall portion is vertically covered in a predetermined width.

The second aspect of the present invention is mainly based on the first aspect of the present invention, and two brackets each having a semicircular portion are fixed to bolts and attached to a column, and a bolt seat is attached to the bracket, and the bracket is attached to the bracket via a cushion. A vertical wall portion is attached.

[Operation] In this way, the vertical rear wall following the flat roof protects the back of the operator, and covers the driver's seat even if the sunshade falls forward, so that the driver's seat, the electrical instrument section, etc. Protect without getting wet in the rain.

In addition, the strut is hidden in the frame along the edge of the inverted L-shaped sunshade and is not visible from the outside, which leads to an improvement in aesthetic appearance and requires only one tube member to be bent, so the cost of producing the strut is low. Become.

And the appearance is improved because of the lower leg design.

Embodiment An embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows the appearance of a turning type hydraulic excavation vehicle as a representative of a vehicle without a driver's cab, showing a part of a side bending frame portion removed, and FIG. 2 shows a flat roof made of split molding. FIG. 3, FIG. 3 is a view showing a part of the transparent portion of the vertical rear wall portion, FIG. 4 is a view showing mounting of the mount, FIG. 5 is a view showing another embodiment of mounting of the mount, FIG. Fig. 7 is a view of a state in which the sunshade roof is removed from the support, as viewed obliquely from the rear. Fig. 7 is a plan view of the sunshade roof, showing a state in which a flat plate portion is partially removed.

In the figure, 10 shows the appearance of a turning hydraulic excavation vehicle representing a vehicle without a driver's seat, showing a driver's seat part 11 of the driver's seat part, 12 is a sunshade roof showing the whole as a representative It has an inverted L-shape consisting of a flat roof portion 13 and a vertical rear wall portion 14.

The flat roof portion 13 has a frame shape obtained by bending a flat roof edge downward, and includes a front bending frame portion 15, a side bending frame portion 16 (only one side is shown), and a rear bending frame portion 17, Flat plate part 18
Has a groove reinforcing pattern 19 to prevent raindrops from falling from the roof edge. The vertical rear wall portion 14 is composed of a transparent wall portion 20 that hangs downward continuously from the rear bending frame portion 17 of the flat roof portion 13 and that is adjacent to the upper surface and the end of the vehicle body, and is bent to the driver seat inner side. 21 (only one side is shown) and a lower end frame portion 22.

Flat roof part 13 and curved rear bending frame part of flat roof part 13
Transparent or colored transparent wall hanging continuously from 17
The vertical rear wall portion 14 of 20 may be made of an integral molding made of a resin material, or may be made of split molding, and as shown in FIG. 2, a fitting groove 23 is formed on the entire lower surface width of the rear bending frame portion 17 of the flat roof portion 13. The vertical rear wall portion 14 may be engaged and connected to the groove 25 of the elastic locking band 24.

When the roof 13 and the vertical rear wall 17 are separated, the structure is improved in order to simplify the structure of the columns 34, and when the vertical rear wall 17 is removed, the design is improved and unnecessary protrusions are eliminated to improve safety. In order to increase the height of the support post 34, there is no seat of the vertical rear wall portion 17, and as shown in FIG.
Fix with. A bolt seat 55 is attached to the bracket 50, and a cushion 54 attached to the wall 20 is fixed to the bolt seat 55 with bolts 56. The transparent portion 20 of the vertical rear wall portion 14 may be provided with a window frame on the vertical rear wall portion 14 and a transparent plate 27 provided with a weather strip 26 as shown in FIG.

Numerals 29 and 28 depict one side, but show a pair of right and left mounts. As shown in an example in FIG. 4, the nuts 31 are provided on the sun-roofed roof 12. The roof 12 is fixed.

As shown in FIGS. 3, 6 and 7, the strut 34 is horizontally bent two-dimensionally along the left and right side frame portions 21 from the lower end frame portion 22 of the vertical rear wall portion 14 of the sunshade roof 12. The vertical support A and the horizontal support B are formed by bending a single tube continuously and bending it into an inverted L-shape.

Roof mounting plates 29, 29-1 are provided on the columns 34 at positions where they are engaged with the mounting portions 29, 28 provided on the sunshade roof 12. The roof mounting plates 29, 29-1 are housed inside the flat roof portion 13 and the vertical rear wall portion 14, and are strong. It supports the sun-roofed roof 12 to withstand wind pressure and snow.

The strut 34 includes a leg C, and the leg C comprises a bracket 41 placed within an intermediate width on the lower cross beam of the vertical strut A.

A hinge 42 is attached to the bracket table 41 by welding. The canopy assembly can be tilted forward about the hinge 42 by attaching the bracket table 41 to the vehicle body and removing a bolt.

[Effects of the Invention] The present invention is configured as described above, so that the vertical rear wall following the flat roof protects the back of the operator, and covers the driver's seat portion even if the sunshade falls forward, so that driving is performed. Protects seats, electrical instrumentation, etc. without getting wet with rain.

In addition, the strut is hidden in the frame along the edge of the inverted L-shaped sunshade and is not visible from the exterior, which leads to an improvement in aesthetic appearance and requires only one tube member to be bent. Is obtained.

And the appearance is improved because of the lower leg design.
