Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Purpose of the invention This invention relates to a shading device that can be freely pulled out and stretched over the windshield in order to reduce the direct sunlight entering the eyes when driving a vehicle, especially in the morning and evening sun. It is.

Industrial Application Fields and Prior Art Various types of shading devices have been used in the past to prevent sunlight from shining through vehicle windows. Since vehicle drivers also require light shielding, a light shielding plate that can be freely rotated and reversed as needed has come to be provided above the driver's head.

Problems that the invention aims to solve: However, although these shielding plates are effective in blocking sunlight that comes over the driver's head, they cannot block out the sunrise and sunset, so the driver must avoid such sunlight. I had no choice but to drive while blinded by the light.

Means to Solve the Problem This invention is to install an automatic shade film winder on the top of the windshield of the vehicle and a hook attached to the bottom of the windshield in order to protect the vehicle driver from the dazzling sunrise and sunset. a light-shielding film is always wound in the automatic winding machine, the light-shielding film has a length that covers the main part of the vertical length of the windshield, and a width that covers the main part of the driver's field of vision; The main part of the film is a dark-colored light-shielding transparent part in its upper half, a light-colored light-shielding transparent part in its lower half, and a required length attached to the center of the lower edge of the film and the center of the lower edge. Attach a hanging ring that can be locked to the hanging hook to the lower end of the string, and when the hanging ring at the center of the lower edge is locked to the hanging hook, the dark-colored light-shielding transparent part is located in front of the driver, and the string It is characterized by a light-colored light-shielding transparent part positioned in front of the driver when the hanging ring at the lower end is locked to the hanging hook. By selectively locking the hanging ring to the hanging hook,
Two light-shielding transparent panels with different degrees of coloration can be selectively placed in front of the driver, allowing the vehicle to be driven safely by appropriately blocking sunlight without losing visibility in the direction of travel. It was.

Embodiment FIG. 1 shows an example of the vehicle driver's light shielding device 1 of this invention applied to the windshield A of an automobile.

The device 1 is mainly made of transparent plastic film 11 with a width of about 50 cm and a length of a light-shielding part of about 50 cm.
The film 11 is formed to have a length of 40 cm. Therefore, if a length longer than the main part 10 to be shaded is required, a transparent or colored transparent curtain is connected above the main part 10, and the film 11 is attached to the cylinder 12. Then, it is constantly wound up as shown in FIG. 2 by an automatic winding machine installed inside the cylinder 12.

As shown in FIG. 1, the main part 10 of the film for shielding light has a lower half 13 that is lightly colored and transparent, and an upper half 14 that is darkly colored and transparent. It goes without saying that the boundary between the light and shade coloring may be blurred as appropriate.

A core 15 is attached to the lower edge of the film 11 to prevent wrinkles from forming on the film 11.
A hanging ring 16 is attached to the core 15 directly or by intervening a short string, approximately in the center of the hanging ring 1.
A string 17 of a required length is attached to the string 6, and a hanging ring 18 is attached to the string 17.

A hook 20 is provided at the lower part of the windshield A and the part facing the front of the driver.

Effects of the invention The light shielding device 1 of this invention has the above configuration,
When the cylinder 12 is attached above the windshield A of the vehicle in front of the driver, the light-shielding film 11 is constantly wrapped around the cylinder 12 using an automatic winder for the cylinder 12 as shown in FIG.
Since the string 17 and the hanging ring 18 simply hang around, they do not get in the way, and when morning or evening sunlight threatens to blind your eyes, you can grab the string 17 and pull out the light-shielding film 11. , the colored parts 13 and 14 cover the front glass A and can reduce the glare of sunlight.

When the glare of sunlight is intense, by locking the hanging ring 16 to the hook 20, the dark-colored light-shielding part 14 hits the front of the driver, reducing the glare and allowing the driver to see through the direction of travel. When the hanging ring 18 is locked to the hanging hook 20, the light-colored light-shielding part 13 hits the front of the driver and can soften the weak sunlight, and the hanging ring 16,1
8 is removed from the hook 20, the light-shielding film 11 is immediately wound onto the cylinder 12.

Therefore, according to the present invention, by simply locking either of the two hanging rings to the hanging hook depending on the intensity of sunlight, two light-shielding transparent pieces with different degrees of coloring can be selectively placed in front of the driver. This allows the vehicle to be safely driven by appropriately blocking sunlight without losing visibility in the direction of travel.

In addition, since it is only necessary to lock the hanging ring to the hanging hook at one place in the center of the lower edge of the film, it is easier to lock and release the hook than when, for example, both ends of a horizontal bar attached to the lower edge of the film are locked to hooks. It is easy to operate and can be operated with one hand even while driving, which is advantageous in terms of traffic safety.

Furthermore, two hanging rings are attached to the film side, and hanging hooks are provided on the front glass side to selectively lock these hanging rings. Compared to the case where a locking member with a locking hole is provided protrudingly, a member such as a hook does not protrude significantly from the windshield at the position directly in front of the driver and obstruct visibility. Since the ring is suspended by a string, by using a thin string, the string and hanging ring can be attached so as not to obstruct the view as much as possible.
