Problems solved by technology

[0007] However, experience has shown that debris, such as leaves, mud, etc. accumulate in the rainshield and eventually block the valves of the above openings
[0008] As a result, the water flowing in the rainshield rises up therein and may cause accidents such as short-circuiting electrical components located near the rainshield and causing water to enter the driver's seat through the air intake and pollen filter of the air conditioner. in the room

Embodiment Construction

[0032] figure 1 Shown is a windshield 1 and a rainshield 2 extending between the lower edge 1a of the windshield and the engine compartment 3 of the vehicle.

[0033] The rain shield 2 consists of a molded part of plastic material, which is covered by a rain screen (not shown).

[0034] The bottom of the rain shield 2 includes discharge openings 4 for rainwater and washer fluid on each side.

[0035] The opening 4 in the figure 2 shown in more detail in , and in image 3 shown in the cross-sectional view.

[0036] This opening 4 is different from the opening of the traditional rain shielding device in that it does not have a valve that is easy to be blocked by waste, such as leaves.

[0037] Furthermore, the opening 4 is partly covered by a part 5 extending between two opposing regions 2a, 2b of the edge of the opening 4, the central part 5a of which part 5 is located above the opening 4 and spaced from said opening.

Abstract

The invention relates to a motor vehicle cowl (2), the bottom of which comprises at least one opening (4) for discharging rainwater and wash water, characterized in that said opening (4) is free of valves and is partially covered by a part (5) that extends between two opposite areas (2a, 2b) of the edge of the opening (4), the central portion of said part (5) being located above the opening (4) and spaced apart therefrom.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a motor vehicle rain shield, the bottom of which comprises at least one discharge opening for rainwater and washer fluid. Background technique [0002] The rain screen of a motor vehicle is a hollow body made of sheet metal between the windscreen and the engine compartment, which allows the collection of rainwater and washer fluid. [0003] The rain-shielding grid extends above the rain-shielding device. [0004] The bottom of the flashing includes drainage openings for rainwater and washer fluid on each side. [0005] Each of the openings is located above the wheel wells. [0006] These openings are usually fitted with valves (clapets) whose function is to avoid the upwelling of water sprayed by the wheels of the vehicle. [0007] However, experience has shown that debris, such as leaves, mud, etc., accumulates in the rainshield and eventually clogs the above-mentioned opening valves. [0008] As a result, the water flowin...
