Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a rain hood for an automobile.

In conventional automobiles such as passenger cars and trucks, no measures were taken to prevent the rain from opening and closing the doors, so when getting in and out of the car during rainy weather, one's body could get wet from the rain, and in some cases, rainwater could fall inside the car. I had a hard time. In addition, especially for work vehicles such as trucks, dump trucks, and mixer trucks, where it is often necessary to drive or work while backing up or working, it is often necessary to lean forward with the door open and check what is behind the vehicle. It has been pointed out that there is a problem that during rain, it is not possible to perform work in a comfortable working environment, which may lead to accidents.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and consists of the following means. In other words, the rain protection hood for this automobile is provided between the upper edge member of the automobile body opening and the upper part of the door sash of the door provided for opening and closing the vehicle body opening, and is opened and closed in conjunction with the opening and closing of the door. I'm starting to do that. It is provided between the upper edge member of the opening of the vehicle body of the automobile and the upper part of the door sash of the door, expands and contracts in conjunction with opening and closing of the door, and is arranged in a pair with substantially the same distance as the upper width of the door sash. The two telescopic arms arranged in such a manner that the unit members are pivotally connected to each other, the connecting rods connecting the corresponding pivot parts of the two telescopic arms, and the width approximately the same as the interval between the two telescopic arms. and a hood member that covers the connecting rod and is attached and fixed to the connecting rod. This invention prevents situations such as getting wet from the rain when getting in and out of a car during rainy weather, or even rainwater falling into the car interior, and is particularly useful for trucks, mixer cars, etc. A work vehicle allows you to work comfortably without getting wet, even when it rains and you lean out with the door open and check what's behind you. As a result, accidents can be prevented, and the hood member does not hang down and prevent the door from closing.
In addition, the positional relationship between the hood member and the telescoping arm does not shift, and from this perspective, the door closes without being obstructed, and the operations are performed accurately.Moreover, these can be easily realized with a simple configuration. The purpose is to propose a hood for protection from rain.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below with reference to drawings showing an example in which the present invention is implemented in a truck cab.

In FIGS. 1 to 3, 1 is a truck cab, 2 is a door provided at the side vehicle body opening of the truck cab 1 so as to be openable and closable, 3 is a door sash of the door 2, 4 is an upper edge member of the vehicle body opening, and 5 The upper part of the door sash 3 and the upper edge member 4 of the vehicle body opening
It is a rain hood that is provided between the door 2 and the door 2, and is opened and closed in conjunction with the opening and closing of the door 2, and is provided so as to cover the upper space between the upper edge member 4 and the door 2. This rain hood 5 has the following features. It is structured as follows. That is, as shown in the figure, 6, 6 are a plurality of unit members 6 provided at both ends and pivotally connected in a cross shape.
This is a telescoping arm configured by pivotally connecting the ends of a, 6a, . . . and the intersections thereof. The telescoping arms 6, 6 are connected to each other through connecting rods 7, 7, whose corresponding pivot points are approximately the same length as the upper width of the door sash 3, so that the length thereof is approximately the same as the upper width of the door sash 3. They are arranged in pairs with an interval between them. Also, both telescopic arms 6,
Each of the bolts 6 is connected to a mounting frame member 9 of a weather stop 8, which is formed so as to protrude from the upper edge member 4 of the vehicle body opening at one end to the lower part of the outer side of the upper edge member 4 of the vehicle body opening, and the other end thereof to protrude above the door sill 3, through a bolt 10, 10, respectively. , nuts 11, 11, and is provided between the upper edge member 4 of the vehicle body opening and the upper part of the door sash 3 of the door 2.

12 is formed of a waterproof cloth material or a cloth material coated with a rubber material, and has a width that is approximately the same as the distance between both telescopic arms 6, 6, that is, the length of each connecting rod 7, 7...; Moreover, it is a hood member fixed to the connecting rods 7, 7, . . . along the upper halves of the telescopic arms 6, 6 on the side surface. In other words, in the illustrated example, the hood member 12 covers the connecting rods 7, 7, . . . in the upper half, and is attached and fixed thereto.

In the embodiment described above, the telescopic arms 6, 6 are configured to extend and contract in conjunction with the opening and closing of the door 2.
Since the hood member 12 is provided along the upper half, the hood member 12 is expanded according to the extension of the telescoping arms 6, 6, and folded by contraction. Therefore, when door 2 is closed,
Since the hood member 12 is folded and accommodated between the components of the telescopic arm, the hood member 12 does not hang down and obstruct the closing of the door 2.

FIG. 4 shows a second embodiment of the present invention, in which a weather strip 8 is provided to protrude above the mounting frame member 9 of the weather strip 8, which is formed to protrude from the upper part of the door chassis 3. A recess 13 is formed over substantially the entire length of the upper edge member 4 at the vehicle body opening in a positional relationship substantially corresponding to the bracket 10,
A rain protection hood 5 is provided between the recess 13 and the upper part of the door sash 3. Therefore, according to this embodiment, when the door 2 is closed, the rain hood 5 is housed in the recess 13 in a semi-submerged manner, so that when the door 2 is closed, the upper edge member 4 and the door sash are The present invention can also be applied to automobiles that do not have a space to accommodate the contracted rain hood 5 between the mounting frame members 9 of the weather strips 8 of No. 3.

The structure and function of the rain hood for automobiles according to the present invention have been explained above, but the present invention is not limited thereto.
Any design changes can be made without changing the gist.

As is clear from the above description, the present invention has the configuration as described in the claims, so that when the door is open, the upper space between the vehicle body opening and the door is always covered by the rain protection hood. Because it is covered with rain, it is possible to prevent situations such as getting in and out of the car, getting wet from the rain, and in some cases rainwater falling into the car. At the same time, you can work comfortably without getting wet, especially when working on a work vehicle such as a truck or a mixer truck, even when it rains and you lean out with the door open and check what's behind you. This makes it possible to improve work safety.Furthermore, since the rain hood is hardly exposed when the door is closed, the appearance of the car can be improved. The effects it has are significant, such as not causing any damage. In addition to these, firstly, when the door is closed, the hood member is folded and stored between the constituent members of the telescoping arm and between the connecting rods, so that the hood member does not hang down and obstruct the closing of the door. Second,
Since the hood member is attached and fixed to each connecting rod, its movement can be performed accurately, and the predetermined positional relationship between the hood member and the telescopic arm will not shift even in the event of rain accompanied by wind. In particular, in the process of closing the door, the positional relationship between the hood member and the telescoping arm etc. will not shift and the closing of the door will not be hindered. Also, for example, when the vehicle travels backwards with the door open, it will be accompanied by wind as described above, but even in such a case, displacement of the positional relationship and obstruction of closing the door can be reliably prevented.
Thirdly, these can be easily realized with a simple configuration by assembling the telescopic arm, the connecting rod, and the hood member. As described above, the rain protection hood for an automobile according to the present invention exhibits excellent effects.
