And in the window shade apparatus 10 for vehicles, the window shade 12 shields the side window 1 by the window shade 12 being pulled out along the vehicle inner surface of the side window 1.

<Window shade drawer storage structure>
The vehicle window shade device 10 includes a window shade 12, a drawing member 20 having a stay 22, a housing portion, and a winding device 30.

The window shade 12 is a member that shields the side window 1. The window shade 12 is a sheet-like member formed by cutting and sewing materials such as a mesh-like cloth and a resin sheet. The window shade 12 may be formed of a stretchable material. More specifically, the window shade 12 is formed in substantially the same size and shape as the side window 1 to be shielded, and the side window 1 can be shielded as a whole. But the window shade 12 may be formed in the shape and magnitude | size which shield a part of side window 1 used as shielding object, or the shape and magnitude | size which can shield several windows collectively.

The window shade 12 is wound up by a winding device 30 disposed in the accommodating portion, and a stay 22 is attached to the end portion in the pulling direction side. Briefly described, the window shade 12 can be pulled out or stored in the storage portion by moving the stay 22 attached to the window shade 12 wound up by the winding device 30 in the pull-out storage direction. . Here, the drawing direction side end is an upper end in a state where the window shade 12 shields the side window 1. The drawer storage direction is a direction along the side window 1 and indicates a direction connecting the lower edge and the upper edge of the side window 1.

The stay 22 is a long bar-shaped member corresponding to the shape and the length of the end of the window shade 12 in the drawing direction. More specifically, the stay 22 is formed in a curved line along the upper edge of the side window 1. The stay 22 is formed in a flat shape along the window shade 12.

Further, the stay 22 has an exit / retreat portion 24 at an end portion in the longitudinal direction, and is configured to be extendable / contractible in the longitudinal direction as a whole. The extendable structure of the stay 22 will be described together with the structure of the drive mechanism of the window shade 12.

The winding device 30 is configured to wind the window shade 12 so that it can be pulled out and stored. More specifically, in the winding device 30, the winding shaft 32 is rotatably supported with respect to a support shaft portion (not shown) and connected to the support shaft portion so as to be able to be rotated and biased by a coil spring (not shown). Has been configured. An end portion of the window shade 12 in the storage direction is fixed to the winding shaft 32.

The accommodating part is formed in a long shape, and is incorporated along the lower edge of the side window 1 at the upper part of the trim 5 provided below the side window 1 (see FIGS. 1 and 10). The housing portion includes a case 40 and a frame 45.

The case 40 has a winding accommodating portion 42 in which the winding device 30 can be disposed, and a gap portion 44 along the direction in which the window shade 12 is withdrawn. The case 40 is a long member in which a winding accommodating portion 42 is continuously provided on the back side of the gap portion 44 that opens along the long direction. In addition, here, the case 40 has a pair of holder portions 35 as end members attached to both ends in the longitudinal direction, in which the winding accommodating portion 42 and the gap portion 44 are formed integrally. (See FIGS. 4 to 7).

The winding accommodating part 42 is formed in a shape having an internal space in which the winding device 30 in a state where the window shade 12 is wound can be accommodated (see FIG. 2). And the winding device 30 winds and accommodates the window shade 12 so that the window shade 12 can be wound by the support shaft portion provided in the winding device 30 being supported so as not to rotate with respect to the winding housing portion 42. It is disposed in the portion 42. More specifically, the case 40 supports both ends of the support shaft portion of the winding device 30 with a pair of holder portions 35.

Further, the gap portion 44 is formed in a shape having an internal space that communicates with the internal space of the winding accommodating portion 42 and in which the stay 22 can be disposed. More specifically, the internal space of the gap portion 44 is set to be narrower than the winding housing portion 42 and larger than the thickness dimension of the stay 22 formed in a flat shape (here, slightly larger).

The case 40 includes, for example, a body portion in which a winding housing portion 42 and a gap portion 44 formed by punching and bending a metal material, or extrusion forming, and an end portion in the longitudinal direction of the body portion. It is good to form in combination with the holder part 35 of the metal or resin molded product attached to.

The frame 45 has a drawing slit 46 provided on the drawing direction side of the gap 44 and through which the stay 22 can pass. The frame 45 is a long member exposed to the inside of the vehicle at the upper portion of the trim 5 provided below the side window 1, and here serves as a part of the interior. The drawer slit 46 is open along the lower edge of the side window 1 above the trim 5 provided below the side window 1. The extraction slit 46 has an internal space that communicates with the internal space of the gap portion 44 in the extraction direction.

Here, the frame 45 is composed of two long members provided at intervals in the vehicle interior and exterior directions (see FIGS. 2 and 3). A drawing slit 46 is formed between the two long members. The lead-out slit 46 is set to be larger than the thickness dimension of the stay 22 and at an interval equal to or larger than the gap portion 44 of the case 40.

Here, in the winding device 30, the winding shaft 32 is rotationally biased by the biasing force of the coil spring so that the window shade 12 can be wound up to at least the position where the stay 22 is disposed in the gap portion 44. In the state, it is disposed in the winding accommodating portion 42 of the case 40. The window shade 12 is pulled out from the winding device 30 disposed in the winding housing portion 42 through the gap portion 44 and the drawing slit 46.

In addition, a lid 60 capable of opening and closing the drawer slit 46 is provided in the housing portion. The lid 60 is opened and closed in conjunction with the drawer and storage of the window shade 12. The structure and operation mechanism of the lid 60 will be described in detail later.

Further, the vehicle window shade device 10 according to the present embodiment includes a shade drive mechanism that pulls out and stores the window shade 12 (see FIG. 1). Hereinafter, an example of the shade drive mechanism will be described. The shade drive mechanism includes a pair of guide rails 50, a pair of runners 54, and a drive unit 58. Describing schematically, the shade drive mechanism unit draws the window shade 12 by guiding a pair of runners 54 attached to the stay 22 to the movement path by the pair of guide rails 50 and moving the drive unit 58 by the drive unit 58. And drive the storage.

The guide rail 50 is a long member provided in the window frame along both side edges of the side window 1 (window frames on both sides (front and rear of the vehicle)) (see FIG. 1). The pair of guide rails 50 is set to a length dimension corresponding to each side edge of the side window 1. Here, since the front side edge of the vehicle is intended to shield the side window 1 that is longer than the rear side edge, the guide rail 50 provided on the front side is longer than the guide rail 50 provided on the rear side. Is set to The pair of guide rails 50 are supported in a posture along both side edges of the side window 1 by fixing the base end portions to the holder portions 35 of the case 40 (FIGS. 4 to 5). 7).

The pair of runners 54 is a member that constitutes the drawing member 20 together with the stay 22 (see FIG. 3). The pair of runners 54 is a portion that is connected to both ends of the stay 22 and is fitted to each of the pair of guide rails 50 so as to be movable in the longitudinal direction. That is, the pair of runners 54 moves along the pair of guide rails 50 to move the stay 22 in the pull-out and storage direction.

Here, the stay 22 has a pair of exit / exit portions 24 provided at both ends so as to be retractable outward in the longitudinal direction. That is, since the window shade device 10 for this vehicle is intended to shield the side window 1 whose upper edge is inclined with respect to the lower edge, the stay 22 is positioned along the upper edge. Move while tilting. More specifically, when the pair of runners 54 is moved to the tip portions of the pair of guide rails 50 having different lengths, the interval between the connecting portions of the runners 54 and the pullout member 20 is set at the time of withdrawal and at the time of storage. And different. For this reason, the vehicle window shade device 10 employs a configuration in which the stay 22 expands and contracts in the longitudinal direction. However, the withdrawing / withdrawing portion 24 may be provided only on one side in the longitudinal direction of the stay 22.

Then, the pair of runners 54 are moved along the guard rails 50 in a state where the connecting portions connected to the stays 22 protrude from the guide rails 50.

The drive unit 58 is a device that circulates and moves a linear member (not shown) along the pair of guide rails 50. Each runner 54 fitted to each guide rail 50 is attached to the linear member. Then, the drive unit 58 circulates and moves the linear member, so that the pair of runners 54 is moved along the guide rails 50. Thereby, the stay 22 is moved in the drawer storing direction, and the window shade 12 can be pulled out and stored.

Here, the drive unit 58 moves the pair of runners 54 at different speeds. That is, the drive unit 58 is set to move the pair of runners 54 from the base end portions of the pair of guide rails 50 having different lengths so as to reach the distal end portions of the guide rails substantially simultaneously.

The driving unit 58 may be connected to an operation switch (not shown). And this operation switch is provided in the trim 5 of the side door, and it is good to be operable by the user who gets on the vehicle.

The drawer state and storage state of the window shade 12 are determined by the stop position of the drawer member 20. For example, the drawing member 20 may be stopped when the pair of runners 54 abuts on both ends in the longitudinal direction of the guide rail 50 or a catching portion for stopping. Further, the stop position of the drawer member 20 may be determined when the stay 22 abuts on a stop hooking portion provided in the storage unit or under the control of the drive unit 58.

However, the configuration of the shade drive mechanism is an example, and various other configurations for pulling out and storing the window shade 12 can be adopted. For example, the vehicle window shade device may have a configuration in which a rod-like member attached to the stay 22 is driven to advance and retract in the pull-out and storage direction, or a configuration in which the stay 22 is manually pulled out.

<Opening and closing structure of the lid>
The vehicle window shade device 10 includes a lid 60 that can open and close the drawer slit 46 of the frame 45, and a first biasing member 68, a slider 70, and a second biasing member that are configured to open and close the lid 60. 78.

The lid 60 is rotatably supported by the case 40 or the frame 45 at a position where the drawer slit 46 can be opened and closed (see FIGS. 2 and 3). The lid 60 has a long plate-like main body portion 62 that can shield the drawer slit 46 and a rotation shaft portion 64 that serves as a rotation center. The lid 60 is rotatably provided by the rotation shaft portion 64 supported by a plurality of shaft support portions 48 erected on the case 40 with the longitudinal direction being along the lower edge of the side window 1. It is done.

The lid 60 is provided so as to be able to change its posture between a closed posture that shields the drawing slit 46 inside thereof and blocks the moving path of the stay 22 and an open posture retracted from the moving path. Yes. More specifically, the lid 60 is set such that, in the closed position, one main surface is substantially on the same plane (or on the same curved surface) as the vehicle inner side portion of the frame 45. Further, the lid 60 is supported by the shaft support portion 48 on the outer side of the gap portion 44 of the case 40 and supported by the shaft support portion 48, and is positioned on the outer side (side window 1 side) of the window shade 12 in the open posture.

The lid 60 also has a sliding contact restricting portion 66 that restricts a sliding contact portion 73 (described later) of the slider 70 to a position on a plane orthogonal to the rotation shaft portion 64. The sliding contact restricting portion 66 is formed in a groove shape by a pair of side walls protruding from the back side surface of the main body portion 62 and extending along a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis with a space therebetween. The distance between the pair of side walls is set to be equal to or larger than the width dimension of the sliding contact portion 73 (slightly larger here). The sliding contact restricting portion 66 restricts the position of the sliding contact portion 73 by the pair of side walls coming into contact with the sliding contact portion 73 of the slider 70 disposed inside.

The first urging member 68 is a member that urges the lid 60 in the closing direction. The lid 60 is maintained in the closed posture by the biasing force of the first biasing member 68 in a state where no force acts in the opening direction. Here, the first urging member 68 is a torsion spring using a coil spring. But the 1st biasing member should just be a biasing member which can be biased in the direction which closes the lid | cover 60, and may be a spring.

The slider 70 pushes the lid 60 maintained in the closed posture by the first biasing member 68 to change the posture to the open posture. The slider 70 is provided so as to be movable between a push-open position in which the lid 60 is pushed to an open position and a retracted position away from the lid 60 (see FIGS. 2 and 3).

The slider 70 is positioned on the storage direction side on the moving path of the extraction member 20 on the storage direction side with respect to the sliding direction 73 from the middle of moving from the retracted position to the push-open position. Receiving portion 74. Here, the slider 70 is formed in a shape in which a plate-like receiving portion 74 protrudes in a direction orthogonal to the main body portion 72 from the base end portion of the long plate-like main body portion 72. And the front-end | tip part of the main-body part 72 is the sliding contact part 73 (refer FIG. 9). In addition, one spring attachment portion 76 to which one end portion of a second urging member 78 described later is attached is provided in the middle portion of the main body portion 72 in the longitudinal direction. The one spring mounting portion 76 is formed in a rectangular plate shape that protrudes on the opposite side to the receiving portion 74, and has a hole portion that can hook one end portion of the second urging member 78. Here, the slider 70 is formed by integrally injection molding a synthetic resin material.

The slider 70 is supported by the holder portion 35 of the case 40 so as to be movable between a push-open position and a retracted position (see FIGS. 8 and 9). More specifically, the holder part 35 has a frame-like slide guide 36 that can be inserted through the main body part 72 of the slider 70. The slide guide 36 has an internal space that is the same as or larger than the cross-sectional shape perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the main body 72 of the slider 70 (here, slightly larger).

The sliding contact portion 73 can contact the lid 60 (sliding contact restricting portion 66) at a position where the slider 70 is moving from the retracted position to the push-open position. The sliding contact portion 73 pushes and opens the lid 60 while slidably contacting the sliding contact restricting portion 66 until it moves from the position in contact with the sliding contact restricting portion 66 to the push opening position. At this time, the sliding contact portion 73 is brought into contact with the side wall of the sliding contact restricting portion 66, thereby suppressing a relative positional shift in the longitudinal direction with respect to the lid 60.

The receiving portion 74 is located on the storage direction side of the drawing member 20 and can contact the drawing member 20 moved to the storage direction side. Here, the receiving portion 74 is formed so as to be able to contact the runner 54 in the drawing member 20. More specifically, the receiving portion 74 has a portion that is located on the storage direction side in the movement path of the portion of the runner 54 that protrudes from the guide rail 50 and has a surface facing the drawing direction side.

The second urging member 78 is a member that urges the slider 70 toward the open position. The second biasing member 78 is set to a biasing force larger than the biasing force of the first biasing member 68, and when the force does not act on the slider 70 in the storage direction side, the slider 70 is maintained in the open position. Then, the lid 60 is maintained in the open posture. Here, the second urging member 78 is a tension spring using a coil spring. However, the second biasing member may be a biasing member that can bias the slider 70 toward the open position, and may employ a spring other than the coil spring, or a compression spring in addition to the tension spring. May be. More specifically, the second urging member 78 is provided in a tension state in a state where the slider 70 is in the push-open position and the lid 60 is in the open position, and the second urging member 78 is larger than the urging force of the first urging member 68. It is set to show power.

The second urging member 78 has one end fixed to one spring mounting portion 76 of the slider 70 and the other end fixed to the other spring mounting portion 38 of the holder portion 35. The other spring mounting portion 38 of the holder portion 35 is a wall-like portion that is provided at a distance from one side wall of the slide guide 36. The second urging member 78 is fixed by being hooked at the other end with respect to the other spring mounting portion 38. Further, a slit 39 that exposes one spring mounting portion 76 of the slider 70 to the other spring mounting portion 38 side is formed in a portion of the slide guide 36 on the other spring mounting portion 38 side. One spring mounting portion 76 moves in the slit 39 as the slider 70 moves.

When the slider 70 is in the push-open position, the one spring mounting portion 76 abuts on the base end portion of the slit 39, and the second biasing member 78 of the second biasing member 78 is not applied to the receiving portion 74. The pushing position is maintained by the urging force.

The configuration for opening and closing the lid 60 is provided on both longitudinal sides of the vehicle window shade device 10.

<Description of operation>
Next, the overall operation of the vehicle window shade device 10 will be described. Here, the window shade 12 is in the housed state as an initial state (see FIG. 10), and the flow from when the window shade 12 is pulled out and housed again will be described.

In the initial state, the window shade 12 is wound up by the winding device 30, and the stay 22 of the drawing member 20 is entirely disposed in the gap portion 44 of the case 40. The stay 22 may be partially disposed in the take-up housing portion 42. The slider 70 is maintained in the retracted position against the urging force of the second urging member 78 by the receiving portion 74 being pressed toward the storage direction by the runner 54 of the pull-out member 20. At this time, the slider 70 is kept out of contact with the lid 60. The lid 60 is maintained in the closed posture by the urging force of the first urging member 68.

First, pulling out the window shade 12 is started by operating an operation switch or the like connected to the drive unit 58. Then, the pair of runners 54 is moved toward the distal end side (withdrawal side) of each guide rail 50. Thereby, the slider 70 pressed by the runner 54 starts moving from the retracted position toward the push-open position while being in contact with the runner 54 by the biasing force of the second biasing member 78. Here, the lid 60 does not operate yet.

When the runner 54 is moved and the slider 70 is moved to the drawing direction side to the position where the sliding contact portion 73 contacts the lid 60, the lid 60 starts to be pushed open by the slider 70 (see FIG. 11). As the runner 54 moves, the slider 70 moves to the push-open position side, and the window shade 12 is pulled out from the winding device 30 in the winding accommodating portion 42. As a result, the stay 22 is exposed to the outside of the accommodating portion (outside the trim 5) through the drawing slit 46.

When the slider 70 moves to the push-open position, one spring mounting portion 76 comes into contact with the proximal end portion of the slit 39 and stops (see FIGS. 8 and 12). Then, the slider 70 is maintained at the open position by the urging force of the second urging member 78. As a result, the lid 60 is in an open posture and is maintained in this posture.

Here, when the stay 22 passes through the drawer slit 46, the stay 22 and the lid 60 are set to operate in a non-contact state. That is, in the retracted state of the window shade 12, the sliding contact portion 73 of the slider 70 is positioned on the drawing direction side from the drawing direction side end portion of the stay 22.

Then, when the runner 54 is moved to the tip of the guide rail 50, the window shade 12 is in a pulled-out state covering the side window 1 as a whole.

From this state, when the operation of retracting the window shade 12 is performed, the runner 54 is moved to the proximal end side of the guide rail 50, and the window shade 12 is gradually wound by the winding device 30. When the runner 54 is moved to a position where the runner 54 contacts the receiving portion 74 of the slider 70, the runner 54 pushes the slider 70 and moves the slider 70 to the retracted position side against the biasing force of the second biasing member 78 (FIG. 11). reference). At this time, the stay 22 passes through or extends inside the drawing slit 46 and is partially or entirely disposed in the gap 44. Then, as the slider 70 moves to the retracted position side, the posture is changed toward the closed posture by the urging force of the first urging member 68.

When the slider 70 is moved to a position where the lid 60 is in the closed position, the pressing force of the slider 70 on the lid 60 is released. In this state, the lid 60 is maintained in the closed posture by the urging force of the first urging member 68 (see FIG. 10).

When the runner 54 is further moved in the storage direction, the sliding contact portion 73 of the slider 70 is separated from the lid 60, and the slider 70 is moved regardless of the opening / closing operation of the lid 60. When the runner 54 is moved to the base end portion of the guide rail 50, the stay 22 is disposed in the gap 44 as a whole, and the window shade 12 is in the retracted state.

According to the vehicle window shade device 10 according to the above-described embodiment, the drawer slit 46 can be closed by the lid 60 when the window shade 12 is stored. Intrusion of dust, foreign matter and the like can be suppressed.

In addition, the lid 60 is urged in the closing direction by the first urging member 68, and is provided so as to be movable between a push-open position where the lid 60 is opened and a retracted position separated from the lid 60. 20, the slider 70 having the receiving portion 74 positioned on the storage direction side on the moving path of the runner 54 is pushed to the open position side by the second biasing member 78 with a biasing force larger than the biasing force of the first biasing member 68. Since the biasing is performed, the lid 60 can be smoothly opened and closed in conjunction with the drawing and storing operation of the window shade 12 to which the drawing member 20 is attached. Further, when the window shade 12 is stored, the lid 60 changes its posture to the closed posture by the urging force of the first urging member 68 before the slider 70 is moved to the retracted position separated from the lid 60. The closed posture is maintained regardless of the movement of the member 20 and the slider 70 toward the storage direction. Accordingly, the lid 60 can be more completely closed in conjunction with the winding of the window shade 12 without being affected by the position error of the drawing member 20 in the housed state of the window shade 12.

In addition, the lid 60 is rotatably supported by the case 40, and the slider 70 has a sliding contact portion 73 that is in sliding contact with the lid 60, so that the window shade 12 is pulled out and stored. The lid 60 can be opened and closed.

Further, since the lid 60 has the sliding contact restricting portion 66 that guides the sliding contact portion of the slider 70 on a plane orthogonal to the rotation shaft portion 64, the sliding contact position with respect to the lid 60 can be restricted. On the other hand, the force in the opening direction can be applied more reliably.

So far, the lid 60 has been described as an example in which the lid 60 is provided so as to be positioned on the vehicle outer side (side window 1 side) with respect to the window shade 12, but the lid 60 may be provided on the vehicle inner side. Good. Further, the pair of lids are positioned on the vehicle inner side or the vehicle outer side of the window shade 12 in the open posture, respectively, and are rotatably supported around the respective axes along the lower edge of the side window 1 so as to be able to open the double doors. The opening / closing member may be used. In this case, the slider is configured to be able to push and open the pair of opening and closing members in the middle of moving from the retracted position to the pushing and opening position, for example, a pair of sliding contact portions provided so as to be able to contact each of the pair of opening and closing members. What is necessary is just to employ | adopt the structure which has the main-body part 72. FIG.

Further, the lid 60 has been described as an example in which the posture is changed by rotating around the rotation shaft portion 64, but the lid 60 is not limited to this. For example, the lid may be provided so as to be slidable inward and outward with respect to the frame 45, and may have an inclined surface on which the sliding contact portion 73 of the slider 70 can slide. That is, when the inclined surface is pushed by the slider 70, the lid slides while the sliding contact portion 73 is in sliding contact with the inclined surface and retracts from the drawing slit 46.

Further, the slider 70 is not limited to the above configuration. For example, the slider 70 is formed of a material having relatively high flexibility, and the posture of the lid 60 is maintained while being in contact with one place while being curved around the rotation shaft portion 64 of the lid 60 from the position where it is in contact with the lid 60. It may be changed.

Further, the opening / closing mechanism of the lid 60 has been described as an example in which the slider 70 directly presses the lid 60. However, the slider 70 may press the lid 60 via another member.

Further, although the example in which the slider 70 is pushed by the runner 54 in the drawing member 20 has been described, a configuration in which the slider 70 is pushed by the stay 22 may be adopted.

As mentioned above, although the vehicle window shade apparatus 10 was demonstrated in detail, above-described description is an illustration in all the phases, Comprising: This invention is not limited to it. The various modifications described above can be applied in combination as long as they do not contradict each other. And it is understood that the countless modification which is not illustrated can be assumed without deviating from the scope of the present invention.
