Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (a) Industrial field of application The present invention relates to an automobile visor used by being attached to a rain gutter that is continuously formed from a side edge of a vehicle roof to a windshield frame.

(B) Conventional technology The visor for automobiles is installed with the eaves protruding substantially horizontally to the outside, and when it rains, the eaves block the rain to prevent blowing from the side window. As disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 59-132414, a visor that tilts the visor front end piece upward and imparts a rainwater collecting function to the front end portion itself as a rain gutter is further disclosed. As disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 54-32425, it is known to use a protective material such as a molding on the edge of a visor eaves portion or the peripheral portion of a light shielding plate provided in a vehicle.

(C) Problems to be solved by the invention In the above-mentioned conventional automobile visor, in which the visor front end piece is inclined, it is excellent in the function of collecting the rainwater received at the eaves front end into the rain gutter. By adopting a special shape that the front end that is normally formed facing downward is provided upward, the front end formed upward faces a large amount of wind resistance when the vehicle is running, and high speed is achieved. Then even the damage of the visor itself occurs. Furthermore, wind noise may be generated by the wind that hits the visor, which adversely affects the shape of the rainwater collection, which adversely affects the function of the vehicle itself. On the other hand, the visor eaves and the mall attached to the edge of the vehicle light-shielding plate are only used for decoration and edge protection, and are not effectively used for rainwater collection and rainwater treatment. Especially, in the case of the visor for automobiles, the rainwater received at the front end portion is not efficiently collected in the rain gutter only by the mall, and the rainwater collecting function, which is the main function of the visor, is not sufficiently fulfilled.

D. Means for Solving the Problems Therefore, the present invention effectively utilizes a conventional mall and makes the visor have a water collecting function with a simple structure, and does not affect the function of the vehicle itself. It provides a visor for automobiles, which is attached to a rain gutter that is continuously formed from the side edge of the roof to the front glass frame, and a synthetic resin molding is attached to the entire outer edge of the eaves. In the visor for an automobile, which is provided on the upper surface of the inclined front portion of the eaves body bent in a V-shape, continuously with the molding,
An inclined bank that gradually lowers inward from the tip of the outer edge is provided by a raising member whose upper end portion at the boundary with the eaves is formed substantially horizontal, and the rain gutter is formed between the slope of the inclined bank and the surface of the eaves. It is in the formation of a water conduit that merges with.

E action Rainwater intercepted by the eaves is gathered on the eaves toward the front end of the visor, gathered in the water guiding groove formed by the raising member, and collected from the tip into the rain gutter of the glass frame. As it is poured, raindrops can be prevented from falling down the eaves and the middle of the front end. Further, since the raising member is attached to the eaves body in a substantially horizontal state, it hardly receives wind resistance.

F. Embodiments The drawings show an automobile visor of the present invention, in which an attachment portion 2 having a ∩-shaped cross section is continuously provided along an inner edge (attachment surface) of an eaves body 1 and attached to a vehicle body. Is fitted on the side frame portion of the rain gutter 3 from above, and is fastened and fixed by a stopper (not shown) from the opposite surface. Moreover, the eaves body 1
Has a synthetic resin molding 4 attached to its outer edge,
A generally triangular pyramid-shaped synthetic resin raising member 5 is attached to a tip portion bent in a V shape and continuously provided on the molding 4 and gradually lowering inward from a tip of a side edge. ing. The upper end 5b of the boundary of the raising member 5 with the eaves body 1 is formed in a substantially horizontal state, and the outside thereof is an inclined bank 5a which gradually decreases inward from the outer edge of the raising member 5 and its slope. A V-shaped water guide groove 6 is formed on the upper surface of the eaves body. The tip of the water guiding groove 6 is gradually narrowed to form a spout that joins the rain gutter 3.

In the automobile visor configured as described above, the rain that is about to be blown into the side window is blocked by the eaves body 1, and the rainwater received on the upper surface of the eaves body 1 is inclined by the eaves body and the rising member 5. It flows to the tip of the visor along the inclined bank 5a, and further the water guiding groove 6
It gathers in and flows from the tip to the rain gutter.

In the automobile visor of the embodiment, since the molding is attached to the outer edge of the eaves, the molding plays a role of a water stopper and also prevents raindrops from dripping from the outer edge of the eaves. The rainwater can be smoothly guided to the heap member continuously provided in the mall. Furthermore, since the raising member is attached horizontally to the eaves, it does not receive wind resistance in the traveling direction at all, and it can be easily attached to a general visor and can be attached to the eaves without any discomfort. Because it gives a smooth, continuous feel, it also adds a function that complements the design of the car by incorporating aero parts.

Effect of the Invention According to the present invention, the rainwater collecting mechanism, which is composed of a molding and a raising member, can easily form the above mechanism even if the visor does not have a water collecting mechanism. It is possible to collect rainwater efficiently without affecting the function. In particular, since it is possible to effectively utilize a molding, which has been used only as a protection and decoration material in the past, and continuously attach the rising member to form the water guiding groove, there is almost no change in the manufacturing line, and it is inexpensive. Can be supplied. Further, since it is possible to prevent the raindrop from dropping from the peripheral edge of the visor, it is possible to eliminate the fear that the inner surface of the door is wetted by the raindrop and the clothes are soiled when the door is opened. In addition, the rain gutter and the eaves become continuous, increasing the sense of unity between the car body and the visor, and the above configuration also serves as an accent to complement the car design. It will be extended.
