Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a car cover and belongs to the technical field of car supplies. Background Art

[0002] Car covers, also known as car clothing, are outer garments made of flexible and wear-resistant materials according to the dimensions of the car. In addition to the common use of car covers to protect cars from external factors such as dust, dirt, rain, and ultraviolet rays, car manufacturers also use car covers to cover the exterior of vehicles during the development and testing of new cars in order to avoid early disclosure of the vehicle's appearance.

[0003] Traditional car covers usually consist of a body, buckles and other parts. When in use, users can fit the car cover tightly to the surface of the car. However, the installation and removal process of traditional car covers is time-consuming and laborious, especially in the car research and development stage, when the car needs to be frequently inspected and tested or needs to be charged frequently. For traditional car covers, in order to perform these operations, the car cover must be removed and then reinstalled. Therefore, the frequency of installation and removal of car covers is very high, which requires additional labor and time costs for R&D personnel. Moreover, frequent removal of car covers can easily expose the car and easily lead to confidentiality leaks, which is undoubtedly troublesome. Summary of the invention

[0004] In order to solve the inconvenience of traditional car covers during installation and removal, reduce the labor and time costs of R&D personnel, improve the efficiency and flexibility of the car R&D stage, and enhance confidentiality, the present invention provides a new type of car cover, which does not require frequent installation and removal. It can cover the vehicle to ensure protection and confidentiality while facilitating charging, software flashing, and various operations on the main driver's seat and the co-pilot's seat, providing R&D personnel with a more convenient and efficient use experience.

[0005] Specifically, the present disclosure provides a car cover for covering the outside of a car, wherein the car cover is constructed of a plurality of sheets that can be connected to each other, and at least two adjacent sheets among the plurality of sheets can be connected to each other in a freely openable and closable manner using a connecting portion.

[0006] According to the car cover with the above structure, it is divided into a plurality of sheets that can be connected to each other by freely opening and closing the connecting parts. Therefore, when the plurality of sheets are connected together, it is equivalent to a traditional car cover and can cover the car to play a role of protection and confidentiality. Moreover, when the car needs to be charged, software update tested, and various operations on the main driver's seat and the co-driver's seat need to be performed, there is no need to dismantle the entire car cover and reinstall the car cover as in the traditional way. It is only necessary to open the corresponding connecting parts so that the required part of the sheet becomes an independent movable sheet and can then move with the corresponding parts of the vehicle, such as doors, hood, charging cover, etc., or detach from the corresponding parts of the vehicle. Therefore, the car cover will not become an obstacle to performing various operations. When necessary, there is no need to dismantle the entire car cover, and the operator can complete the above operations while the car cover is still installed on the car. By using the car cover disclosed in the present invention, various operations can be performed without removing the car cover, such as opening the car door, charging, software update, etc., which greatly saves time and labor costs; moreover, the operator's operation can be performed while the car cover still fully covers and protects the car, ensuring the confidentiality of the vehicle's appearance and preventing the leakage of confidential information. In addition, by using the car cover disclosed in the present invention, the position and shape of each sheet can be designed as needed, and the design freedom and operability are excellent.

[0007] In addition, in addition to the use scenarios in the research and development stage, the car cover of the present disclosure can also play a good role in the daily use scenarios of car owners and other users. For example, when the user needs to temporarily enter or exit the vehicle, it is convenient to enter or exit without removing the entire car cover, which improves the user experience.

[0008] Preferably, in the above car cover, the connecting portion of at least two adjacent sheets includes: a first chain belt arranged at the connecting portion of one of the two sheets; and a paired second chain belt arranged at the connecting portion of the other one of the two sheets, wherein the two sheets can be freely opened and closed by closing the first chain belt and the second chain belt or opening the first chain belt and the second chain belt through a zipper head.

[0009] According to the car cover with the above structure, the zipper head, as a key component for connecting and separating the two chains, can easily pull the first chain belt and the second chain belt together, so that the two sheets are tightly fitted together to form a complete protective cover. Similarly, when the sheet needs to be opened, the zipper head can be easily separated by pulling it in opposite directions, so that the sheet can be opened and closed freely. Therefore, only a simple pulling and closing operation is required to quickly connect and separate the sheets, providing a more convenient and efficient use experience for the operator.

[0010] Preferably, in the above car cover, the connecting portion of at least two adjacent sheets includes: round hairs arranged at the connecting portion of one of the two sheets; and bristles arranged at the connecting portion of the other one of the two sheets, wherein free opening and closing of the two sheets are achieved by adhesion and separation between the round hairs and the bristles.

[0011] According to the car cover with the above structure, Velcro is a key component for connecting and separating two sheets. By simply pressing, the round hair can be tightly attached to the bristles to achieve a tight connection between the two sheets. Similarly, when the sheets need to be separated, the round hair and the bristles can be easily separated by gently tearing, and the sheets can be opened and closed freely. Therefore, only a simple pressing or tearing operation is required to quickly achieve the connection and separation between the sheets, providing a more convenient and efficient use experience for the operator.

[0012] Preferably, in the above car cover, the connecting portion of at least two adjacent sheets includes: a first magnet arranged at the connecting portion of one of the two sheets; and a second magnet arranged at the connecting portion of the other one of the two sheets, wherein the free opening and closing of the two sheets is achieved by adsorption and separation between the first magnet and the second magnet.

[0013] According to the car cover with the above structure, the magnet is a key component for connecting and separating the two sheets. When the two sheets need to be connected together, just bring the first magnet and the second magnet close together, and they will automatically align and fit tightly due to the attraction of the magnetic force. Similarly, when the sheets need to be separated, just pull them apart with a little force to overcome the magnetic force and achieve free opening and closing. Therefore, only simple alignment or tearing operations are required to quickly achieve the connection and separation between the sheets, providing operators with a more convenient and efficient use experience.

[0014] Preferably, in the above car cover, the car cover further comprises a locking portion; the locking portion locks the connecting portion to inhibit the sheets from opening.

[0015] According to the car cover with the above structure, by setting the locking part, the confidentiality performance of the car cover is greatly improved, ensuring that the sheet will not be opened at will, thereby providing users with a higher level of privacy protection. The locking part enables the sheets of the car cover to form a stable closed structure. Through the locking mechanism, the connection between the sheets becomes tight and difficult to be easily opened by external force, effectively preventing unauthorized peeping and entry, and ensuring the safety of the car model appearance, privacy inside the car and sensitive information. The design of the locking part not only improves the physical safety of the car cover, but also enhances the psychological security of the user. The user does not need to worry about the car cover being opened at will when unattended, so that the car can be safely parked at the R&D test site, outdoors or other occasions where privacy protection is required.

[0016] Preferably, in the above car cover, the at least two adjacent sheets of the car cover include a first sheet corresponding to the hood, and the connecting portion of the first sheet is arranged at positions corresponding to the front edge of the hood and to a pair of side edges of the hood, so that when the connecting portion of the first sheet is open, the hood can be opened and closed freely.

[0017] Preferably, in the above car cover, the at least two adjacent sheets of the car cover include a second sheet corresponding to the driver's door, and the connecting portion of the second sheet is arranged at a position corresponding to the front edge of the hinge side, the rear edge of the handle side and the lower edge of the door, so that when the connecting portion of the second sheet is open, the door can be opened and closed freely.

[0018] Preferably, in the above car cover, the at least two adjacent sheets of the car cover include a third sheet corresponding to the charging port protective cover or the fuel port protective cover, and the connecting portion of the third sheet is arranged at a position corresponding to the periphery of the charging port protective cover or the fuel port protective cover, so that when the connecting portion of the third sheet is opened, the charging port protective cover or the fuel port protective cover is exposed.

[0019] According to the car cover with the above structure, the design of the first sheet material can realize the free opening and closing of the hood without removing the car cover. When the hood needs to be opened, the user only needs to simply open the connecting part of the first sheet material to easily access the hood without disassembling the entire car cover, which not only saves time and energy, but also ensures the stability and integrity of the car cover when the hood is opened; the design of the second sheet material can realize the free opening and closing of the car door, allowing the user to easily open the car door when needed, while keeping the other parts of the car cover tightly fitted to the car, which not only facilitates the user's entry and exit, but also avoids the loosening or damage of the car cover caused by the opening of the car door; the design of the third sheet material can realize convenient access to the charging port / fuel port protective cover. When charging or refueling is needed, the user only needs to open the connecting part of the third sheet material to easily access the charging port or refueling port, which not only improves the convenience of operation, but also ensures the stability and safety of the car cover during charging or refueling.

[0020] Preferably, in the above car cover, the car cover at least covers the entire exterior of the car from the top to the chassis.

[0021] According to the car cover with the above structure, the car cover basically adopts a full coverage design, which can closely fit and wrap the general appearance of the car, including key parts such as windshield, windows, body and wheels, effectively blocking the view inside the car, making it impossible for outsiders to peek into the appearance of the vehicle and any situation inside the car, thereby greatly improving the confidentiality of the vehicle.

[0022] Preferably, in the above automobile cover, the locking portion includes at least a first locking portion that locks the connecting portion of the first sheet material and the connecting portion of the second sheet material.

[0023] According to the car cover having the above structure, the first sheet material and the second sheet material can be locked together by the first locking portion, so that the hood and the door cannot be opened without authorization.

[0024] Preferably, in the above automobile cover, the locking portion further comprises a second locking portion for locking the connecting portions of at least two adjacent sheets below the automobile chassis.

[0025] According to the car cover with the above structure, the sheet can extend to under the car chassis and can be locked by the second locking part under the car chassis. Therefore, when the second locking part is locked, it can be considered that the entire cover is locked and fixed to the car chassis, and the cover cannot be removed from the car unless the second locking part is unlocked, which undoubtedly improves safety.

[0026] Preferably, in the above car cover, the portion of the car cover corresponding to the headlights is made of transparent material, and the other portions are made of opaque material; or the portion of the car cover corresponding to the headlights and the portion corresponding to the rear license plate are made of transparent material, and the other portions are made of opaque material.

[0027] According to the car cover with the above structure, a design combining transparent and opaque materials is adopted. During the research and development test stage, there is no need to operate the sheet material of the headlight part, and the working condition of the headlight can be observed from the appearance, which is convenient for testing and observation. At the same time, since the material of other parts is opaque, confidentiality can be guaranteed.

[0028] Preferably, in the above car cover, the car cover comprises a plurality of through holes, and the through holes are arranged at positions corresponding to the car grille.

[0029] According to the car cover with the above structure, by providing a plurality of through holes, even if the car is started and tested with the car cover on the car, the normal operation of the car's air intake system and cooling system will not be hindered, and air is allowed to flow freely, ensuring that the engine and other parts that need cooling can get enough air to dissipate heat.

[0030] Preferably, in the above car cover, the car cover includes a wheel covering portion, and the car cover is fixed to the car by covering the wheels of the car with the wheel covering portion.

[0031] According to the car cover with the above structure, a wheel covering part is provided, and the wheel covering part is used to closely fit the wheel, and can be firmly fixed to the car without relying on additional fasteners, which greatly simplifies the installation process of the car cover for cycling. The R&D personnel or the car owner do not need to find suitable fasteners, nor do they need to perform complicated fixing operations. They only need to put the wheel covering part on the wheel, and fix it by the wheel covering part itself, thereby saving time and energy. In addition, since no additional wheel fasteners are required, the installation and removal of the car cover can be completed more easily, and there is no need to worry about the loss or damage of the fasteners, and the operability is excellent.

[0058] Hereinafter, the technical solutions of the present disclosure will be more clearly illustrated by describing specific embodiments of the present disclosure with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0059] It should be noted that the drawings in the present disclosure are only schematic diagrams for the purpose of clearly showing the parts related to the scheme of the present disclosure, and some non-essential parts that may exist are not shown. Therefore, these drawings should not be understood as limitations on the present disclosure, and they may be different from the actual structure when used. In addition, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "back", etc. that may appear in the following description to indicate orientation or position are for the purpose of convenience of description and are not restrictive. Similarly, for the sake of clarity and conciseness, the description of well-known functions and structures is omitted in the following description.

[0060] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a car cover according to an embodiment of the present disclosure viewed from the left front of the car; Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a state in which some sheets of a car cover are opened; Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a car cover according to an embodiment of the present disclosure viewed from the right rear of the car; and Figure 4 yes Figure 3 Schematic diagram of a car cover with some sheets opened.

[0061] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a car cover 100 for covering the outside of a car. Different from the traditional one-piece car cover, the car cover 100 of this embodiment is constructed of a plurality of sheets that can be connected to each other, and at least two adjacent sheets of the plurality of sheets can be connected to each other in a free opening and closing manner by using a connecting portion 16. The plurality of sheets are, for example, the base sheet 10, the first sheet 11, the second sheet 12, the third sheet 13, the fourth sheet 14 and the fifth sheet 15 shown in the figure, which will be described in detail later. Of course, it can be understood that the base sheet 10, the first sheet 11, the second sheet 12, the third sheet 13, the fourth sheet 14 and the fifth sheet 15 cited here are all examples, not restrictive, and the car cover can be divided according to different parts of the car as needed, so as to include the required number, shape and position of each sheet.

[0062] According to the car cover 100 of this embodiment, it is divided into a plurality of sheets that can be connected to each other by freely opening and closing the connecting part 16. Therefore, when the plurality of sheets are connected together, Figure 1 As shown, it is equivalent to a traditional car cover and can cover the car to protect it and keep it confidential.

[0063] On the other hand, when it is necessary to charge the car, perform software update test, and perform various operations on the main driver's seat and the co-driver's seat, the car cover 100 of this embodiment does not need to be disassembled as in the traditional way, and the car cover is reinstalled. It is only necessary to open the corresponding connection part 16 so that the required part of the sheet becomes an independent movable sheet, and then it can move with the corresponding parts of the vehicle, such as the door 120, the hood 110, the cover (charging cover) 130, etc. or detach from the corresponding parts of the vehicle. Therefore, the car cover will not become an obstacle to various operations. When necessary, it is not necessary to disassemble the entire car cover 100, and the operator can complete the above-mentioned various operations while the car cover 100 is still installed on the car. Using the car cover disclosed in the present invention, various operations such as opening the door, charging, software update, etc. can be performed without disassembling the car cover, which greatly saves time and labor costs; moreover, the operator's operation can be performed while the car cover is still fully covering and protecting the car, ensuring the confidentiality of the vehicle appearance and preventing the leakage of confidential information. In addition, by using the car cover disclosed in the present invention, the position and shape of each sheet can be designed as needed, and the design freedom and operability are excellent.

[0064] In addition, in addition to the use scenarios in the research and development stage, the car cover 100 of the disclosed embodiment can also play a good role in the daily use scenarios of car owners and other users. For example, when the user needs to temporarily enter or exit the vehicle, it is convenient to enter or exit without disassembling the entire car cover, which improves the user experience.

[0065] Regarding the division of the individual sheets in the automobile cover 100, in this embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, it may include: a first sheet 11 corresponding to the cabin cover 110, and a connecting portion 16 of the first sheet 11 (a connecting portion between the first sheet 11 and the base sheet 10) is arranged at a position corresponding to the front edge of the cabin cover 110 and a pair of side edges of the cabin cover 110, so that when the connecting portion of the first sheet 110 is opened, the cabin cover is as shown in FIG. Figure 2 The second sheet 12 corresponding to the driver's door, i.e., the left front door 120, and the connecting portion 16 of the second sheet 12 (the connecting portion between the second sheet 12 and the base sheet 10) is arranged at a position corresponding to the front edge of the hinge side, the rear edge of the handle side, and the lower edge of the door 120, so that when the connecting portion 16 of the second sheet 12 is opened, the door 120 is as shown. Figure 2As shown, it can be opened and closed freely; and a third sheet 13 corresponding to a cover plate 130 such as a charging port protective cover or a fuel filler port protective cover, and a connecting portion 16 of the third sheet 13 (a connecting portion between the third sheet 13 and the base sheet 10) is arranged at a position corresponding to the periphery of the cover plate 130 such as the charging port protective cover or the fuel filler port protective cover, so that when the connecting portion 16 of the third sheet 13 is opened, the cover plate 130 such as the charging port protective cover or the fuel filler port protective cover is as shown. Figure 2 In addition, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the car cover 100 may further include a fourth sheet 14 and a fifth sheet 15 divided by a connecting portion 16 disposed at the rear of the car.

[0066] Figure 2 The figure briefly shows that the connection between the first sheet 11, the second sheet 12 and the third sheet 13 and the connecting portion 16 of the connected sheet is released, so that the first sheet 11, the second sheet 12 and the third sheet 13 can be opened independently. Figure 2 As shown, when the first sheet 11, the second sheet 12 and the third sheet 13 can be opened independently, the opened sheets can be rolled up for the convenience of operation of the vehicle (see Figure 2 The second sheet 12, the third sheet 13), and the corresponding sheet that rolls up is tied and bound by the unshown binding tape etc. that is arranged on the sheet. Of course, it is not restrictive that the opened sheet is rolled up, and it is also possible not to perform any operation after opening.

[0067] Since the sheet material of the car cover 100 of the present embodiment includes the first sheet material 11, the second sheet material 12 and the third sheet material 13 as described above, when the car cover 100 is not disassembled, Figure 2 As shown, the design of the first sheet 12 enables the bonnet 110 to be opened and closed freely. When the bonnet 110 needs to be opened, the user only needs to simply open the connecting portion 16 of the first sheet 11 to easily access the bonnet 110 without disassembling the entire car cover 100, which not only saves time and energy but also ensures the stability and integrity of the car cover 100 when the bonnet 110 is opened; the design of the second sheet 12 enables the driver's door 120 to be opened and closed freely, allowing the user to easily open the door 120 when needed. Keeping the other parts of the car cover 100 tightly fitted to the car not only facilitates the user's entry and exit, but also prevents the car cover from loosening or being damaged due to the opening of the car door 120; the design of the third sheet 13 enables convenient access to the cover 130 of the charging port / fuel port protective cover. When charging or refueling is required, the user only needs to open the connecting part 16 of the third sheet 13 to easily access the charging port or fuel port, which not only improves the convenience of operation, but also ensures the stability and safety of the car cover 100 during the charging or refueling process.

[0068] In addition, for the divided sheets, in addition to the first sheet 11, the second sheet 12, and the third sheet 13, other sheets that can be opened and closed freely can be provided as required, for example Figure 3 It is shown that a connection portion 16 can be provided at the rear of the automobile, so that the parts on both sides of the connection portion 16 become the fourth sheet 14 and the fifth sheet 15 which can be opened and closed freely. Figure 4 As shown, the fourth sheet 14 on the left side of the connecting portion 16 is turned over to the upper left, and the fifth sheet 15 on the right side of the connecting portion 16 is turned over to the upper right, so that the corresponding operation can be performed. In addition, due to different models, some models may have the charging port / fueling port set on the right side. Therefore, considering the versatility, Figure 3 As shown, a similar Figure 1 The third sheet 13.

[0069] It can be understood that the above-mentioned division of sheets is only an example, and various divisions can be made as needed. For example, in the present embodiment, no separate sheet is divided at the passenger door, but, of course, the car cover can also be separated at the passenger door to form a sheet similar to the first sheet; for example, corresponding sheets can also be divided at the tailgate of the car, and so on.

[0070] Next, a configuration example of the connection portion 16 for connecting adjacent sheets according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described.

[0071] Example 1

[0072] In Example 1, the connection portion 16 of at least two adjacent sheets includes: a first chain belt provided at the connection portion of one of the two sheets; and a paired second chain belt provided at the connection portion of the other of the two sheets. The two sheets can be freely opened and closed by closing the first chain belt and the second chain belt or opening the first chain belt and the second chain belt by a zipper head.

[0073] According to the structure of the connecting portion 16 in Example 1, the zipper head, as a key component for connecting and separating the two chain straps, can easily pull the first chain strap and the second chain strap together, so that the two sheets of material fit tightly together to form a complete protective cover. Similarly, when the sheet needs to be opened, the two chain straps can be easily separated by pulling the zipper head in opposite directions, so that the sheet can be opened and closed freely. Therefore, only a simple pulling and closing operation is required to quickly connect and separate the sheets, providing the operator with a more convenient and efficient use experience. For example, in the present embodiment, the zipper-type connecting portion 16 is used for the first sheet 11, the second sheet 12, and the third sheet 13, but this is of course not restrictive.

[0074] Example 2

[0075] In Example 2, the connection portion 16 of at least two adjacent sheets may include: round bristles arranged at the connection portion of one of the two sheets; and bristles arranged at the connection portion of the other one of the two sheets, wherein the free opening and closing of the two sheets is achieved by adhesion and separation between the round bristles and the bristles.

[0076] According to the structure of the connecting portion 16 in Example 2, Velcro is a key component for connecting and separating two sheets. By simply pressing, the round hairs can be tightly attached to the bristles, thereby achieving a tight connection between the two sheets. Similarly, when the sheets need to be separated, the round hairs and the bristles can be easily separated by gently tearing them, thereby achieving free opening and closing of the sheets. Therefore, only a simple pressing or tearing operation is required to quickly achieve connection and separation between sheets, providing the operator with a more convenient and efficient use experience. For example, in this embodiment, for the connecting portion 16 of the fourth sheet 14 and the fifth sheet 15 at the rear of the car, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, this type of Velcro is used, wherein the connecting portion 16A is one of round hairs and bristles, and the connecting portion 16B is the other of round hairs and bristles, although this is not restrictive.

[0077] Example 3

[0078] In Example 3, the connecting portion 16 of at least two adjacent sheets includes: a first magnet arranged at the connecting portion of one of the two sheets; and a second magnet arranged at the connecting portion of the other one of the two sheets, wherein the free opening and closing of the two sheets is achieved by adsorption and separation between the first magnet and the second magnet.

[0079] According to the structure of the connecting part 16 in Example 3, the magnet is a key component for connecting and separating the two chains. When two sheets need to be connected together, just bring the first magnet and the second magnet close together, and they will automatically align and fit tightly due to the attraction of the magnetic force. Similarly, when the sheets need to be separated, just pull them apart with a little force to overcome the magnetic force and achieve free opening and closing. Therefore, only simple alignment or tearing operations are required to quickly achieve the connection and separation between sheets, providing operators with a more convenient and efficient use experience.

[0080] Other Examples

[0081] In addition to the above examples 1, 2 and 3, the connection portion 16 may also be formed by other feasible methods such as connection between snaps, buttonholes, connection between hooks and loops, connection between straps, etc., which are not limited here.

[0082] In addition, for the car cover 100, a certain example of the connecting part 16 can be used alone, for example, the connecting part 16 is all composed of the zipper form of Example 1; or two or more examples of the connecting part 16 can be used in combination, for example, a certain connecting part 16 is the zipper form of Example 1, while a certain connecting part 16 is the Velcro form of Example 2, and a certain connecting part 16 is the magnetic form, and so on.

[0083] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, in the car cover of this embodiment, the car cover further includes a locking portion 17, and the locking portion 17 can lock the connecting portion 16 to prevent the sheets from opening. The locking portion 17 is, for example, a lock.

[0084] In the present embodiment, when the connecting portion 16 of the first sheet 11 and the connecting portion 16 of the second sheet 12 are formed by a zipper, the lock can be passed through the zipper rings of each zipper head and locked, such as Figure 1 As shown; moreover, the same lock can be used to lock the connecting parts of multiple sheets, that is, the connecting parts of the first sheet 11 and the second sheet 12, thereby saving the number of parts and having excellent operability. When the connecting part 16 is composed of forms other than a zipper, a keyhole in the form of a through hole or a sewn lock ring can be provided at one or more positions in the middle of the connecting part of a certain sheet, so that the connecting part can be locked by passing the keyhole or the lock ring through the lock. For example, for the first sheet 11, a lock can be provided at one or more positions on the front side or on the left and right sides, so that the first sheet 11 will also become unable to be opened. At this time, since the connecting part is locked, the connecting part 16 cannot be pulled open, and the sheet cannot be opened at will. For another example, Figure 3 and Figure 4 FIG. 1 shows that the connection portion 16 between the fourth sheet 14 and the fifth sheet 15 is in the form of Velcro. In this case, the corners of the fourth sheet 14 and the corners of the fifth sheet 15 can be provided with lock holes 14A and 15A. When the fourth sheet 14 and the fifth sheet 15 are connected together, the lock holes 14A and 15A of the fourth sheet 14 and the fifth sheet 15 are located at the lower side of the vehicle chassis. The lock 17 (see FIG. 1 ) can be used to lock the fourth sheet 14 and the fifth sheet 15. Figure 3 ) is locked, thereby fixing the entire car cover to the vehicle chassis. Only when the lock 17 is unlocked can the cover be removed from the car, thereby improving safety.

[0085] In this embodiment, by providing the locking portion 17, the confidentiality performance of the car cover 100 is greatly improved, ensuring that the sheet will not be opened at will, and also ensuring that the car cover cannot be removed from the car at will, thereby providing a higher level of privacy protection for the user. The locking portion 17 enables the sheets of the car cover 100 to form a stable closed structure. Through the locking mechanism, the connection between the sheets becomes tight and difficult to be easily opened by external forces, effectively preventing unauthorized peeping and entry, and ensuring the safety of the vehicle appearance, privacy in the car, and sensitive information. The design of the locking portion 17 not only improves the physical safety of the car cover, but also enhances the psychological security of the user. The user does not need to worry that the car cover will be opened at will when unattended, so that the car can be safely parked at the R&D test site, outdoors, or other occasions where privacy protection is required.

[0086] In addition, in this embodiment, the car cover 100 covers the appearance of the car including at least the upper part of the windshield and wheels, or in other words, at least the part from the top to the chassis of the car is fully covered, and the lower part of the car cover 100 can be wrapped on the chassis of the car and can be locked by the locking part as described above. Therefore, the car cover basically adopts a full-coverage design, which can closely fit and wrap the general appearance of the car, including key parts such as the windshield, windows, body and wheels, effectively blocking the view inside the car, so that the outside world cannot peek into the appearance of the vehicle and any situation inside the car, thereby greatly improving the confidentiality of the vehicle.

[0087] As shown in the figure, in the car cover 100 of this embodiment, the portion of the car cover 100 corresponding to the headlights and taillights can be configured as a transparent material to form a transparent portion 18, and the portion corresponding to the car license plate can be configured as a transparent portion 18. Figure 3 As shown, the second transparent part 20 can also be set, and the other parts are made of opaque materials. By adopting a design combining transparent and opaque materials, during the research and development test stage, there is no need to operate the sheet of the headlight part, and the working condition of the headlight can be observed from the appearance, which is convenient for testing and observation. At the same time, since the material of other parts is opaque, confidentiality can be guaranteed. In addition, the second transparent part 20 can also be set to an opaque material.

[0088] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the front part of the car cover 100, at a position corresponding to the car grille, a plurality of through holes 19 can be provided so as not to affect air intake, heat dissipation, etc. during starting the car for R&D testing.

[0089] In addition, the above car cover 100 may include a wheel covering portion, and the car cover is fixed to the car by covering the wheels of the car with the wheel covering portion.

[0090] Other embodiments

[0091] and Figure 1 Different from the embodiment shown, for the opening and closing structure of the automobile, such as the door 120, the cutting method of the second sheet 12 or the setting position of the connecting portion may not be Figure 1 Instead, the connection portion is arranged so as to correspond to the open end edge of the door, that is, to the end edge other than the hinge side. Moreover, a magnet or the like may be sewn on the inner side of the corresponding sheet material so that the corresponding sheet material can be adsorbed on the door. According to the method of this embodiment, the second sheet material 12 is actually equivalent to being integrated with the door. When the connection portion is opened so that the second sheet material does not hinder the free opening and closing of the door, the second sheet material can move with the door because it is adsorbed on the door, and there is no need to perform other operations such as folding or rolling up the untied second sheet material.

[0092] The car cover 100 of the present embodiment has been described above with reference to the accompanying drawings, which effectively solves the inconvenience of traditional car covers during installation and removal, reduces the labor and time costs of R&D personnel, improves the efficiency and flexibility of the car R&D stage, and enhances confidentiality. The car cover 100 does not require frequent installation and removal, and can cover the vehicle to ensure protection and confidentiality while facilitating charging, software flashing, and various operations on the main driver's seat and the co-driver's seat, providing R&D personnel with a more convenient and efficient use experience.

[0093] In addition, although in the above embodiments, the car cover is applied to a car in the R&D and testing stage and is used for confidentiality purposes, it can be understood that the car cover can also be used in daily scenarios.

[0094] Next, a method for manufacturing the automobile cover 100 of this embodiment is briefly described.

[0095] First, prepare a common one-piece car cover that matches the target vehicle. Then, for example, with the goal of facilitating work, conceive the appearance of the car cover and design the composition of each sheet. After that, according to the concept, cut or trim the obtained common one-piece car cover to form the required sheets, and sew or attach zippers, Velcro, and other connecting parts of the above forms to the connecting parts of adjacent sheets, and add locks, etc. Then, cut the corresponding parts of the headlights, replace them with transparent materials, and cut through holes. In this way, the car cover of the embodiment can be produced. Of course, there is no special restriction on the execution order of the steps of forming the connecting part and the steps of forming the transparent part, and they can be executed as needed.
