Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to an improvement in the mounting structure of a protective cover that covers the top of a hood mounted on a connection between vehicles.

Conventionally, in order to prevent rain from leaking due to damage to the roof, a separate upper cover sheet was attached between both ends of the vehicle to protect the area around the roof. has been done.

However, since both the front and rear ends of the upper cover sheet are fastened to the ends of the vehicle by numerous rivets, it is extremely inconvenient to install and remove the upper cover sheet, which is easily damaged and frequently replaced. This required a lot of trouble and time.
Therefore, the current situation is that repairing and replacing the upper cover sheet is extremely troublesome.

The present invention solves these problems and provides a mounting structure that allows the upper cover that covers the upper and side parts of the connecting canopy body to be easily attached and detached, thereby increasing work efficiency. An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

Regarding FIGS. 1 to 3 1 and 4 1,
1 is a hollow tube hood bone adjacent to each other in parallel with the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and between the hood bones are upper and lower side hood sheets C ₁ and C ₂ forming the hood sheet C of the hood body, and locking pieces formed at both ends thereof. 2
are engaged with the locking grooves 3 of the hollow tube hood frame 1 to form a stretchable rectangular cylindrical hood by the usual method, and both ends of the hood are connected to the vehicle 6 through the hollow tube hood frame 1a. It is fixed to a vehicle frame 5 fixedly installed on the vehicle's end surface. 4 is a packing attached to the hollow tube hood frame 1a.

B is an upper cover sheet that covers the upper surface of the hood sheet C of the hood body, and is made of a thin synthetic resin-treated cloth, and the intersection portions Ft of the slide fasteners F are interposed on both side edges of the upper cover sheet. One side edge of the tape part _T2 on one side of the slide fastener F is connected at the overlapping part 7, and the tape part T2 on the other side
The side edge of T ₁ is connected to the inner surface A ₂ of the upper auxiliary cover sheet A, which will be described later, and the intersection Ft of the slide fastener F.
are connected at the overlapping part 8 such that

Therefore, the above-mentioned upper auxiliary cover sheet A has the locking groove 3 of the hollow tube top frame 1a by the locking piece 2 on one side edge.
The hood sheet C is attached to the upper side and the upper side of the hood sheet C through the hood sheet C, and the other edge is open with a width dimension L, and one side end of the slide fastener F is connected to the inner surface of the hood sheet C. In this connected state, the upper cover sheet B connects the slide fastener F and the upper auxiliary cover sheet A to form the hood sheet C ₂ of the hood body connected between both vehicle bodies.
It covers the upper part of.

Next, referring to FIG. 3 2 showing an enlarged view of the back side of part A in FIG. One side edge of one of the tape portions T ₁ and _{T 1} of possible synthetic fibers is fixed at the overlapping portion 8 and meshes with the interlocking element t ₁ on one side edge of the tape portion T ₁ . The intersection part Ft with the other tape part _T2 , which has the tape part _T2 on one side edge, is covered with the upper auxiliary cover sheet A, so that one side edge of the tape part is moved in the width direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. The upper cover sheet B is integrally connected at the overlapping portions 7 at both side edges thereof. Therefore, when connecting both side edges of the slide fastener F to the upper auxiliary cover sheet A and the upper cover sheet B, respectively, the front side slider _S1 of the slide fastener F is connected to the upper side of the top body, that is, to the main body of the top. Sheet C
(In the drawing, it is installed so that it is aligned with the upper hood sheet C ₂ ) side. In this installed state, the _four intersections F of the slide fasteners F connected to the inner surface _A2 of the upper auxiliary cover sheet A are connected to the upper auxiliary cover sheet A.
The open end is covered with a material such that the open end can be rolled up.

Therefore, the upper cover sheet B and the upper auxiliary cover sheet A face each other via the slide fastener F.
To attach and detach the upper auxiliary cover sheet A, lift the upper auxiliary cover sheet A slightly upward in the direction of the arrow R, and then engage it freely through the intersection Ft between the engaging elements t ₁ and t ₂ of the slide fastener F. Attachment and detachment operations can be quickly performed at the upper part of the connecting canopy.

In addition, the slider S of the slide fastener F is arranged with its front slider _S1 facing the canopy main body canopy sheet C side, so that the sealing condition on the front side of the intersection Ft is enhanced and the upper auxiliary cover sheet A
This is preferable because it enhances the permeation resistance effect even against the intrusion of some rainwater through the gap between the overlapped portion of the upper cover sheet B and the upper cover sheet B.

In addition, the tape parts T ₁ and T ₂ that are continuous on the left and right sides and form the slide fastener F have elasticity in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, and have elasticity in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle connection. Since the stress applied to the slide fastener F is also absorbed, no stress is applied to the interlocking part Ft, so there is no risk of disengagement at that part.

Furthermore, since a thin flexible hood sheet is selected and used as the upper cover sheet B, alternating friction damage caused by the folds of the hood during vehicle operation is reduced, and the bonding conditions with the slide fastener F section are good. Since it is made of aluminum, there is no need for attachments to assist in bonding.

Based on the above configuration, the present invention is based on the upper cover sheet B.
It is attached to the vehicle in a three-way connection with the upper auxiliary cover sheet A via the slide fastener F, and as the vehicles are connected and separated, the connecting hood is also connected and separated. In such cases, the upper cover sheet B that covers the upper side of the hood can be smoothly connected and separated using the slide fastener F section, and even when the connected hood is connected, the upper cover sheet B can be attached and detached independently. can be easily replaced.

In addition, even if the slide fastener F itself is damaged, the installation work can be made more efficient by separating the length of the fastener part from the upper cover sheet B and the upper auxiliary cover sheet A connected to the fastener and replacing it. be.

Further, the slide fastener F connected to the upper cover sheet B is engaged with the locking piece 2 formed on the side edge of the slide fastener F through the upper auxiliary cover sheet A through the locking groove 3 of the hollow tube hood frame 1a so that it can be inserted and removed. At the same time, since it is attached to the side edge of the top sheet _C2 of the top body, even if the upper auxiliary cover sheet A is damaged, it can be repaired by attaching and detaching it separately from the top sheet _C2 of the top body. can be accommodated.

Furthermore, the attachment/detachment function provided on the upper cover sheet B is not limited to the above-described embodiment; for example, as shown in FIGS. 4 2 and 3, a large number of coupling fittings such as rivets are used to attach the conventional connecting hood to the vehicle body. Needless to say, it can be widely used for things that have been done. By the way, in Fig. 4 2, 9 is an iron core hood frame, and the hood sheet C is wrapped around the hood frame, and one side edge of both cover sheets A and B is riveted to the end of the vehicle. It is shown in the attached state.

As described above, according to the present invention, when the slide fastener F is connected to the upper cover sheet B made of a thin and flexible synthetic fabric at the upper part corresponding to the ceiling of the vehicle connecting top, the bonding properties are good and simple. Furthermore, the end portion of the slide fastener is connected to the inner surface of the upper auxiliary cover sheet A, and the side ends of the upper auxiliary cover sheet A are attached to the hollow tube hood frame simultaneously with the installation of the hood sheet, respectively. Since the top cover sheet B is detachably attached to the top cover sheet, the top cover sheet B, which is frequently replaced, can be replaced by removing the top auxiliary cover sheet A from the top frame. In addition, since the slide fastener F can be replaced alone and the replacement work of the upper cover sheet B can be done quickly and easily, installation costs can be significantly reduced.

In addition, the slide fastener F part is not exposed to the outside and does not damage the appearance, and at the same time prevents functional damage to the fastener part and prevents rainwater from entering the vehicle interior, which is a feature that can achieve the purpose of the protective cover structure. .
