Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) This invention relates to a curtain-type sunshade device for an automobile sunroof that ensures reliable light shielding.

(Prior Art) In a sunshade device for an automobile, a light-shielding curtain is provided on a window opening formed in the vehicle body to adjust the amount of sunlight passing through the window opening, and this curtain is installed on the edge of the upper opening of the window opening. From there, it moves forward toward the edge of the lower opening opposite to this, allowing it to move in and out freely.
There is a device in which the window opening is closed by this (for example, Japanese Utility Model Application No. 52-41813).

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) By the way, in the conventional configuration described above, when the curtain is advanced to the edge of the lower opening of the window opening in order to close the window opening, the curtain is easily deformed. The protruding end may be deformed. In this case, a gap is formed between the lower opening edge of the window opening and the extending end of the curtain due to the above-mentioned deformation of the curtain, and there is an inconvenience that light enters the passenger compartment through this gap. be.

(Purpose of the invention) This invention was made with attention to the above-mentioned circumstances. When a window opening is closed with a curtain, light enters the passenger compartment from between the opening edge of the window opening and the extending end of the curtain. Effectively suppresses intrusion, and
The purpose is to simplify the configuration for suppressing the invasion of light.

(Structure of the invention) The feature of this invention to achieve the above object is that a light-shielding lip is integrally protruded from the handle provided at the extending end of the curtain, and when the curtain closes the window opening, the curtain is closed. The light shielding lip is adapted to be removably fitted between the opening edges of the window opening and the ceiling opening corresponding to the extending end.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of this invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In the figure, 1 is a car body, and this car body 1
A front window 2 is formed at the front of the vehicle, a front door 3 and a rear door 4 are provided on the side surfaces of the vehicle body 1, and a vehicle interior 5 is formed within the vehicle body 1. Also, 6 is a roof, and this roof 6 is the vehicle body 1.
An outer panel 6a forming an upper surface, and an inner panel 6b joined to the inside of this outer panel 6a.
It consists of

A molded ceiling 7 made of resin is provided as a ceiling member that covers the lower surface of the roof 6, and this molded ceiling 7 is attached to the inner panel 6b of the roof 6 with a bracket 9.

The roof 6 is provided with a front sunroof 11 and a pair of left and right rear sunroofs 12, 12.

To explain the above rear sunroof 12,
A window opening 14 is formed in the side of the roof 6, and a ceiling opening 15 is formed in the molded ceiling 7 to correspond to this. An elastic weather strip 16 such as rubber is provided on the opening edge of the window opening 14.
Further, an opening trim 17 made of elastic material such as rubber is also provided at the edge of the ceiling opening 15. A window glass 18 that closes the window opening 14 by pressing against the weather strip 16 is provided.
will be provided.

Further, in the above configuration, a sunshade device 20 is provided for adjusting the amount of daylight passing through the window opening 14 and the ceiling opening 15. This sunshade device 20 will be explained below.

A light-shielding curtain 22 is provided in the space sandwiched between the roof 6 and the molded ceiling 7. The inner end of the curtain 22 in the vehicle width direction is connected to a retractor 23, and the outer end of the curtain 22 in the vehicle width direction can move forward and backward toward the opening edge of the window opening 14 on the outer end side of the vehicle width direction. be done. This retractor 23 is installed inside and supported by a retractor case 25 supported by the inner panel 6b of the roof 6, and the curtain 22 can be wound around this retractor 23 with elastic force.

A sliding rod 24 is attached to the outer end of the curtain 22 and extends along this edge.
A guide rail 26 is provided to guide the vehicle 4 in the vehicle width direction. This guide rail 26 is formed between the weather strip 16 and the opening trim 17 at the front and rear opening edges of the window opening 14 and ceiling opening 15, and both ends of the sliding rod 24 are slidably fitted into this guide rail 26. Ru.

A handle 28 made of resin is provided at the extended end of the curtain 22 and extends along the sliding rod 24, and the handle 28 is screwed to the sliding rod 24 with a plurality of bolts 29.

When the handle 28 is moved inward in the vehicle width direction with the retractor 23 retracting the curtain 22, the window opening 14 and the ceiling opening 15 are opened and the amount of daylight increases (as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 1). ). When the curtain 22 fully opens the window opening 14, the handle 28 comes into contact with the opening trim 17, thereby preventing the retractor 23 from further winding up the curtain 22. That is, this handle 28 also functions as a stopper.

On the other hand, by operating the handle 28, the retractor 23
When the curtain 22 is let out and moved outward in the vehicle width direction while resisting the elastic force, the window opening 14 and the ceiling opening 15 are closed and the amount of daylight is reduced (as shown by the solid line in the figure). Then, the curtain 22 is connected to the window opening 14.
When the window opening 14 and the ceiling opening 15 are fully closed, the curtain 22 is detachably locked to the guide rail 26 by a locking means (not shown), and the window opening 14 is maintained in this fully closed state.

In the sunshade device 20 having the above configuration, a light shielding lip 30 is integrally provided to protrude from the upper end of the handle 28 in the direction in which the curtain 22 advances. This light-shielding lip 30 is connected to the window opening 14 by the curtain 22.
When the window opening 14 and the ceiling opening 15 are closed, the weather strip 16 and the opening trim 17 are formed to be removably fitted between the weather strip 16 and the opening trim 17 at the outer end sides of the window opening 14 and the ceiling opening 15, respectively. By fitting the light-shielding lip 30, the gap formed between the window opening 14, the opening edge of the ceiling opening 15, and the extending end of the curtain 22 is covered. Further, the light shielding lip 30 is provided across the entire width of the curtain 22.

Although the sunshade device 20 provided in the rear sunroof 12 has been described above, the sunshade device 2 is also provided in the front sunroof 11.
A sunshade device having the same configuration as 0 is provided. However, in this device, the extending end of the curtain can move in and out in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body.

(Effects of the invention) According to this invention, the handle provided at the extending end of the curtain is integrally provided with a light-shielding lip, so the handle is reinforced by the light-shielding lip.
Therefore, the extended end of the curtain can be more reliably maintained in a predetermined shape not only by the handle but also by the light shielding lip. As a result, although the curtain is easily deformed, when the curtain closes the window opening, a gap is formed between the opening edge of the window opening and the extending end of the curtain due to the deformation of the curtain. This prevents light from entering the vehicle interior more reliably.

Moreover, when the curtain closes the window opening,
The light-shielding lip is removably fitted between the opening edges of the window opening and the ceiling opening corresponding to the extending end of the curtain, so that when the window opening is closed with the curtain, each of the window opening and ceiling opening The opening edge and the light-shielding lip form an intricate shape. Therefore, light entering the vehicle interior through the window opening is more effectively suppressed.

Moreover, the above-mentioned suppression of light penetration was achieved by integrally molding the light-shielding lip onto the handle and by effectively utilizing the edges of each window opening and ceiling opening, thereby suppressing the increase in the number of parts. In other words, the practical effect of effectively suppressing light penetration is achieved with a simple configuration.
