Description

  The present invention relates to a vehicle-connected hood that is attached between one vehicle and the other vehicle and covers a moving space that moves between the one vehicle and the other vehicle.

  Up to now, there have been proposed a plurality of panels arranged inside the connecting hood for vehicles, and some of them have been implemented. The purpose of these panels is to enhance the aesthetics of the passage formed inside the vehicle connecting hood, and to prevent passengers from directly touching the inner surface of the vehicle connecting hood.

  In the structure of the panel arranged for such purpose, for example, a fixed side panel is fixed inside the hood (main body), and a movable side panel is arranged inside the fixed side panel. A structure in which the side is in sliding contact with the inner side surface of the fixed side panel (see Patent Document 1), and a side panel is rotatably arranged on both opposing vehicle faces, and a central panel is rotatably arranged between these side panels However, there is a structure (see Patent Document 2) in which these panels are always urged in the direction opposite to the passage side. Further, the base end of the first panel is fixed to the end face of one vehicle, and the end face of the first panel is confronted with the end face of the first panel on the end face of the other vehicle. A structure in which the base ends of the second and third panels are fixed has also been proposed (see Patent Document 3).

  The structure of the panel disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 absorbs the amount of movement when one vehicle to be connected and the other vehicle approach or separate from each other, and one vehicle and the other vehicle. Even when the bend is bent, the front end of each panel can be prevented from projecting to the moving path side (inside the vehicle-connected hood).

No. 7-9724 JP-A-7-52791 Japanese Patent No. 4005073

  However, the structures of the panels disclosed in Patent Documents 1 to 3 described above are all arranged at positions separated from the inner surface (the left inner surface and the right inner surface) of the vehicle-connected hood to the moving space side where the passenger moves. Therefore, if the arrangement space of the panel (the space between the left panel and the right panel) is taken into consideration, the vehicle-connected hood must be enlarged, and these assembly steps are At least the step of fixing the vehicle connecting hood and the step of fixing the panel are required separately.

  Accordingly, the present invention has been proposed in order to solve the problems of the above-described conventional vehicle-connected hood or the arrangement structure of the panel disposed inside the vehicle-connected hood. It is an object of the present invention to provide a novel vehicle-connected hood capable of performing the fixing process between the vehicle-connected hood and the panel in one step.

  The present invention has been proposed in order to solve the above problems, and the first invention (the invention according to claim 1) is formed into a cylindrical shape by a sheet body, and a passenger moves inside. A connecting hood main body formed with a movable space and being made telescopic, and a plurality of frame shapes arranged at a predetermined interval from the front side to the rear side of the linking hood main body and holding the shape of the connecting hood Each of the frame-shaped cores is located on the left side of the moving space, and is located on the right side of the moving space and faces the left side of the left side. A right long portion, an upper short portion located on the upper side of the moving space, one end continuous with the left long portion and the other end continuous with the right long portion, and the moving space. One end is connected to the left long part and the other end is the right long part. When the frame-shaped core material is disposed inside the connecting hood main body, the left-side long portion constituting the frame-shaped core material is provided. When the frame-shaped core material is disposed outside the connected hood main body, the left-side length that forms the frame-shaped core material when the connected hood main body shrinks inside the connected hood main body. When the base end of the left safety panel is fixed to the portion where the scale portion abuts and the frame-shaped core material is disposed inside the connecting hood main body, the right long length constituting the frame-shaped core material In the case where the frame-shaped core material is disposed outside the connection hood main body, the frame-shaped core material is configured when the connection hood main body is reduced inside the connection hood main body. The base end of the right safety panel is fixed to the part where the right long part abuts, and the left safety panel and the right safety panel are The panel has the same length as the left long portion or right long portion or a length shorter than the left long portion or right long portion, and is adjacent when the connecting hood main body is most extended. The width is wider than the distance between the corresponding left long portions or right long portions, and the distal ends of the left safety panel and the right safety panel are respectively located at the front of the connecting hood main body. An elastic member for urging the left safety panel or the right safety panel is disposed so as to always slide in contact with the left safety panel or the right safety panel arranged side by side or on the back side.

  The vehicle-connected hood constituting the first invention has a left-side safety panel and a right-side safety panel respectively disposed on the left and right elongated portions constituting the frame-shaped core member or the inside of the above-described coupled hood main body. The left side safety panel and the right side safety panel are fixed at the base end, and the left side safety panel and the right side safety panel are arranged on the front side or the back side of the connecting hood main body by the elastic member. Always in sliding contact with the panel or the right safety panel. The widths of the left safety panel and the right safety panel are wider than the interval between adjacent left long portions or right long portions when the connecting hood main body is extended most. Therefore, according to this vehicle connection hood, when the connection hood main body is most extended (when one vehicle connected to the other vehicle and the other vehicle are most separated from each other), it is also reduced most (one connected to each other). The left safety panel and the right safety panel that are always adjacent to each other are also partially overlapped, and the front end of each left safety panel and right safety panel is moved by the passenger. It does not protrude toward the moving space. Further, even when the directions of one vehicle and the other vehicle are displaced and the connecting hood main body is bent in an arc shape, the ends of the left safety panel and the right safety panel are moved by the elastic action of the elastic member. The passenger does not protrude toward the moving space where the passenger moves.

  Therefore, in the vehicle connection hood according to the present invention, the left safety panel and the right safety panel are respectively arranged with respect to the frame-shaped core material or the connection hood main body, and the conventional vehicle connection hood or the inside of the vehicle connection hood is arranged. Like the arrangement structure of the arranged panels, the panel is not arranged inside the connection hood (main body) and separately from the connection hood (main body). Since the safety panel and the right safety panel are not arranged, the size of the connecting hood for the vehicle itself is made smaller than before (especially, the distance between the left side surface and the right side surface of the vehicle hood (main body) is shorter). can do. Further, in the present invention, as described above, the left safety panel and the right safety panel are respectively arranged with respect to the frame-shaped core member or the connecting hood main body. There is no need to go through the process of attaching the connecting hood (main body) to the vehicle and the process of fixing the panel separately from this process. Therefore, according to such an invention, compared with the conventional vehicle connection top, it can contribute greatly to a cost reduction.

  The connecting hood main body constituting the first invention is formed in a cylindrical shape from the seat body, and a moving space in which a passenger moves is formed on the inner side, and can be expanded and contracted. Well, as in a second invention described later (the invention described in claim 2), it is not necessary that the sheet body is bent and the peaks and valleys are alternately formed. Further, the frame-shaped core material may be any one as long as it is arranged at a predetermined interval from the front side to the back side of the connection hood main body and maintains the shape of the connection hood. A plurality of frames may be arranged, or two types of frame-shaped cores having different left and right widths and upper and lower lengths may be arranged. That is, the two types of frame-shaped core materials are one frame-shaped core in which the left long portion and the right long portion are spaced apart and the upper short portion and the lower short portion are spaced at a predetermined distance. The distance between the left long part and the right long part constituting the one frame-shaped core material is longer than that of the one frame-shaped core material, and the distance between the upper short part and the lower short part. Is a case where the other frame-shaped core material made shorter than that of the one frame-shaped core material is used. In the case of using these two types of frame-shaped core materials, the frame-shaped core material constituting the first invention is the above-mentioned (one) frame in which the distance between the left elongated portion and the right elongated portion is short. The base ends of the left safety panel and the right safety panel are fixed to the core material (the left long part and the right long part). Further, the frame-shaped core material described above may be disposed inside the above-described connected hood main body, or may be disposed outside the above-described connected hood main body. Furthermore, as described above, there are two types of such frame-shaped core materials, one frame-shaped core material and the other frame-shaped core material. May be arranged inside the hood, or each of them may be arranged outside the hood body, or the one frame-shaped core material may be placed outside the hood body, and the other frame-shaped core material may be connected to the hood. The inside of the main body, or the one frame-shaped core material may be disposed inside the connecting hood main body, and the other frame-shaped core material may be disposed outside the connecting hood main body. In this way, there are two types of frame-shaped core materials. For example, when one frame-shaped core material is arranged outside the connected hood main body and the other frame-shaped core material is arranged inside the connected hood main body, the connected hood main body When the force acts on the outside from the outside, the shape of the connecting hood main body is secured by the other frame-shaped core material, and the inner pressure acts on the inside of the connecting hood main body as in When a force is applied, it is possible to ensure the shape retention of the connecting hood main body by the one frame-shaped core material.

  Further, the left safety panel and the right safety panel constituting the present invention need only have the length and width described above, and these shapes are not necessarily limited, but as described above, In order for the front end of the left safety panel or the right safety panel to slidably contact the left safety panel or the right safety panel arranged on the front side or the rear side of the connecting hood main body by elastic action, the left safety panel or The shape of the right safety panel is, for example, bent in a circular arc shape or in the middle of the front end side so that the front end side approaches the (other) left safety panel or the right side safety panel side by side on the front side or rear side of the connecting hood main body. It is desirable to use one that is bent in a square shape. In other words, it is preferable that the left safety panel and the right safety panel have a partially bulged shape so as to approach each other.

  Further, according to a second invention (invention according to claim 2), in the first invention, the connecting hood main body includes a mountain portion located outside the connecting hood main body and an inner side of the connecting hood main body. Positioned trough portions are alternately formed, and the frame-shaped core material is one frame-shaped core material in which only the left long portion and the right long portion are fixed along the trough portion. And only the upper short part and the lower short part are fixed along the valley part, and the distance between the left long part and the right long part is the left side constituting the one frame-shaped core material. The other frame-shaped core material that is longer than the distance between the long-length portion and the right-side long-length portion, and the left safety panel is formed on the left-side long-length portion that constitutes the one frame-shaped core material. The right safety panel is fixed to the right elongated part constituting the one frame-shaped core. The one in which the features.

  In the vehicle connection hood according to the second aspect of the invention, the connection hood main body is alternately formed with a mountain portion located outside the connection hood main body and a valley portion located inside the connection hood main body. Therefore, when the connecting hood main body is extended by separating one vehicle and the other vehicle and when the connecting hood main body is reduced by approaching one vehicle and the other vehicle, In addition, when one vehicle and the other vehicle are displaced and the connecting hood main body is bent in an arc shape, the vehicle must be expanded or contracted or bent by changing the angle of the sheet body that forms the peak or valley. It becomes. Therefore, the aesthetics are greatly improved as compared with the case where the connecting hood main body in which such a ridge or valley is not formed is used as a component. And in this 2nd invention, since one frame-shaped core material mentioned above and the other frame-shaped core material are being fixed to the said connection hood main body, even if it is a case where force acts from the outside, this connection The shape of the hood body is maintained and there is little risk of damage due to external forces. Further, even when the left safety panel or the right safety panel is forcibly rotated against the elastic force of the elastic member and the connecting hood main body is exposed, there is little risk of damage due to external force.

  According to a third invention (invention of claim 3), in the first invention, the connecting hood main body includes a mountain portion located outside the connecting hood main body, and an inner side of the connecting hood main body. Positioned troughs are alternately formed, and the frame-shaped core is disposed inside the connecting hood main body, and only the left long part and the right long part are the troughs. One frame-like core material that is fixed along the top and the outside of the connecting hood main body, and only the upper short part and the lower short part are fixed along the mountain part, The distance between the scale portion and the right long portion is determined from the other frame-shaped core material that is longer than the distance between the left long portion and the right long portion constituting the one frame-shaped core material. The base end of the left safety panel is fixed to the left long part constituting the one frame-shaped core material. The right safety panel are those proximal to the right elongated portion constituting one of the frame-like core member said is characterized by comprising fixed.

  In this third invention, the frame-shaped core material constituting the first invention consists of two types of one frame-shaped core material and the other frame-shaped core material, and the one frame-shaped core material is a connecting hood. The other frame-shaped core material is disposed inside the main body, and the other frame-shaped core material is disposed outside the connecting hood main body. A base end is fixed to the portion, and the right safety panel has a base end fixed to the right elongate portion constituting the one frame-shaped core member.

  Even in the case of the third invention according to such a configuration, as in the case of the second invention, when the connecting hood main body is extended by separating one vehicle and the other vehicle, When the connecting hood main body is reduced due to the approach of the vehicle and the other vehicle, and when one of the vehicles and the other vehicle are displaced and the connecting hood main body is bent in an arc shape, the above described It will be expanded or contracted or bent by changing the angle of the sheet forming the peak or valley. Therefore, the aesthetics are greatly improved as compared with the case where the connecting hood main body in which such a ridge or valley is not formed is used as a component. In particular, in the third aspect of the invention, the other frame-shaped core material is disposed outside the connecting hood main body, so that a force is applied from the inside to the outside as when an internal pressure is applied to the connecting hood main body. When the above acts, it becomes possible to ensure the shape retention of the connecting hood main body by the other frame-shaped core material and to maintain the aesthetics more.
