Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a sun visor for a vehicle in which a map is incorporated.

[Problems that conventional technology and ideas try to solve]

Traditionally, maps have been placed in door pockets, seat pockets,
It is stored in a glove box, etc. Therefore,
If you wanted to look at a map, you had to remove it from these parts and hold it in your hand.

In view of this point, it is an object of the present invention to provide a sun visor for a vehicle that allows the user to view a map without holding it in his or her hand.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to achieve this object, the present invention supports an upper plate 10 and a lower plate 20 whose upper ends are hinged so as to be able to open and close each other on a support shaft 1 provided below the roof portion. Sliders 12 and 22, which are slid by hand, are attached to the upper surface plate 10 and the lower surface plate 20, respectively, along their respective lower ends. Top plate 1
0 and the lower surface plate 20, a plurality of maps 5 are set, each having a notch 5a formed in the lower end thereof by a unit amount S in order in the sliding direction.
The sliders 12 and 22 are provided with a stopper 23 that engages each other in a separable manner when the upper plate 10 and the lower plate 20 are juxtaposed in the closed state, and is provided with a stopper 23 that protrudes between the upper plate 10 and the lower plate 20 toward the upper end. The claws 12a and 22a are formed respectively. These claws 12a, 22a are spaced apart by a unit amount S in the juxtaposed position, and the protrusion amount is set so as to reach the notch 5a. An index 26 indicating the contents of the map 5 for each unit amount S in the sliding direction is attached to the outer surface of the lower end of the lower plate 20, and a pointer 22b for the index 26 is provided on the slider 22 of the lower plate 20. Note that the symbols in parentheses refer to those in the embodiment described later.

[Effect]

In the normal state, the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 20
The closed sliders 12 and 22 are placed side by side and are engaged with each other by a stopper 23 and supported on the support shaft 1 along the roof. When used as a sun visor, simply rotate it downward (as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 3).

On the other hand, when viewing map 5, sliders 12 and 2
By adjusting the position of 2, the index 26 is guided by the pointer 22b, the stopper 23 is engaged and disengaged, and the lower plate 20 is opened downward.

[Example of idea]

1 to 6 show a sun visor according to an embodiment of the present invention, which basically consists of an upper plate 10 and a lower plate 20, as shown in FIG. The upper ends of these are constructed of a shaft and a pipe-shaped bearing, and a hinge 2 equipped with a biasing spring 2a so as to open the plates 10 and 20 from each other.
(FIG. 2), and the top plate 10 is supported by a bearing 11 on a support shaft 1 provided below the roof portion.

At the lower ends of the upper plate 10 and the lower plate 20, claws 12a and 22a protrude toward the upper end between the upper plate 10 and the lower plate 20, and claws 12a and 22a are provided on the outer surface along the linear lower edges 10a and 20a, respectively. Groove 1 formed
The slider 12 is provided with pins 12b and 22b that engage with the pins 4 and 24, and is slid by hand.
and 22.

As shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of maps 5 are set between the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 20, each having a notch 5a formed therein by a unit amount S. The amount of protrusion of the claws 12a, 22a is adjusted so that the protrusion amount reaches the notch 5a, and the amount of protrusion of the claws 12a, 22a is
The distance between the sliders 12 and 2a is
0 and 20 are closed and arranged side by side, it is set to correspond to the cutting amount S. A stopper 23 is attached to a pin 23 on the side of the slider 22.
The slider 1 is rotatably supported in a frictional state at
Both plates 10 and 20 are restrained in the juxtaposed state of plates 2 and 22.

On the outer surface of the bottom plate 20, index symbols or letters 2 indicating the contents of the map are provided along the groove 24.
6 are attached at intervals of the cutting depth S (only the dividing lines are shown), and the pins 22b also function as the pointers. As a result, when both plates 10 and 20 are closed and both sliders 12 and 22 are moved from the left to the right in a side-by-side engaged state and opened, the map 5 on the top plate 10 side as shown in FIG. is held by the claws 12a, and the remaining map 5 on the bottom plate 20 side is held by the claws 22a.

The operation of the slider configured in this way is as follows.

Normally, as shown in FIG. 5, the top plate 10 and the bottom plate 20 are closed with the stoppers 23 frictionally engaged with the sliders 12 and 22 in a juxtaposed state, and positioned along the roof surface. has been done.
When used as a sun visor, it is rotated to the position indicated by the two-dot chain line as shown in FIG. When using a map, slide the sliders 12 and 22 to move the pin 22b to the desired index character 26.
2, and the stopper 23 is rotated toward the user to rotate the lower plate 20 to the position shown in two-dot chain line in FIG. 2 by the biasing force of the spring 2a. This allows the user to view the map 5 of a desired page without holding it in his/her hands (FIG. 6).

In the above-described embodiment, various modifications may be made within the scope of the present invention to the engagement structure of the sliders 12 and 22 to both plates, the stopper 23, the mutual hinge structure at the upper end of both plates, or other structures. Variations are possible.
