Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicular curtain device, and more particularly to a vehicular curtain device mounted in a vehicle compartment for the purpose of shielding light.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, a vehicle curtain device is provided with a window portion 14 having a window glass 13 attached to a side surface in a vehicle compartment as shown in FIG. 1, and the window portion 14 is provided along the window glass 13. There are those equipped with a curtain 15 that can be opened and closed.
The curtain 15 is laid along the side surface of the vehicle body 10 in the upper and lower trims 16 of the window portion 14 and is parallel to each other.
1 and the lower rail 12 are mounted.

In a conventional curtain device of this type, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13, a curtain rail 110 is formed by forming a slit 112 in the longitudinal direction on a long member having a hollow cross section of a square shape. A plurality of curtain runners 120 are provided so that the curtain runners 120 having the upper and lower engaging portions 123, 123 slide on a pair of horizontal guide tracks 113, 113 of the curtain rail 110. Holds the curtain runner 120.

A rail cap 111 is fitted on the end portion of the curtain rail 110 to prevent the curtain runner 120 from falling off. Then, as shown in FIG. 14, the curtain runner 120 is arranged with a gap 134 to some extent with respect to the guide groove 112 of the curtain rail 110.

Further, FIG. 15 shows a conventional method for fixing the curtain 145 to the curtain rail 110. The curtain runner 120 has a mounting wheel 121, and the hook 144 of the curtain 145 is passed through the mounting wheel 121 of the curtain runner 120 to hang the curtain 145 on the curtain rail 110. Heatons 143 are fixed to both ends of the curtain rail 110. By passing the hooks 144 of the curtain 145 through the mounting wheels 143a of the heatons 143, the curtain 145 is fixed so as not to move when the vehicle is traveling.

[0006]

However, in the method of fixing the curtain according to the above-mentioned prior art, since the end of the curtain is fixed by being hooked on the heaton, the end side can be opened and closed by the following method. There was a problem that the hook had to be removed from Heaton each time. There is also a demand for fixing the curtain at a predetermined position so that it will not be affected by vibration when the vehicle is running. Further, in windows for vehicles, there are windows of different shapes in which the lengths of the upper and lower portions of the windows are not uniform, and in the case of such windows, there is also a demand for arranging a curtain without deviation or slack.

An object of the present invention is to provide a curtain device for a vehicle, which can fix the curtain in a half-opened state and can be freely opened and closed at an end or a central part of a curtain rail for fixing the curtain.
