Problems solved by technology

However, the sloped design of the larger windshield also has disadvantages compared to the steeper, smaller windshields of conventional motor vehicles
However, on sunny days, a sloping windshield allows high levels of solar radiation to enter the motor vehicle and thus significantly heats the vehicle interior
Heating can be counteracted by the air-conditioning system, but heavy use of the air-conditioning system results in correspondingly high fuel consumption
Also, at high outside temperatures, air conditioning systems are usually not very effective at adequately cooling the entire passenger compartment

Embodiment Construction

[0022] according to figure 1 , the front cladding 1 is arranged in front of the motor vehicle 2 . The front cladding 1 is arranged over the region of the windscreen 3 and the bonnet 4 of the motor vehicle 2 . The front cladding 1 is transparent, i.e. clear, and may be composed of any transparent material with sufficient stability at low thickness to withstand the wind from driving or the impact of small objects on the front cladding 1 at high speeds. The case does not tear under load, but at the same time is flexible. Preferred materials are eg polymers. The thickness of the front cladding is preferably less than 1 mm, more preferably less than 0.5 mm, more preferably less than 0.1 mm, more preferably less than 0.01 mm, more preferably less than 0.001 mm. Particularly preferred is the well-known thickness of one atomic layer from carbon-modified graphene.

[0023] The material of the front cladding 1 has reinforcing struts 5 which preferably consist of carbon fibers or at ...

Abstract

The invention provides a transparent front cladding layer of a motor vehicle. The front cladding layer is arranged in front of a windshield of the motor vehicle and has a small material thickness for supplying an aerodynamics shape for the motor vehicle. The invention further provides a motor vehicle with the corresponding front cladding layer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a transparent front cladding for a motor vehicle, which is arranged in front of the windshield of the motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Most passenger motor vehicles - such as minivans and even luxury cars - tend to be provided with increasingly raked windshields, particularly for aerodynamic design and fuel economy. However, the sloping design of the larger windshield also has disadvantages compared to the steeper, smaller windshields of conventional motor vehicles. On sunny days, however, a sloping windshield allows high levels of solar radiation to enter the motor vehicle and thus heats the vehicle interior considerably. The heating can be counteracted by the air-conditioning system, but heavy use of the air-conditioning system leads to correspondingly high fuel consumption. Additionally, at high outside temperatures, air conditioning systems are often not very effective at adequately cooling the entire passenge...
