DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0019] In order to solve the technical problems in the prior art that the opening and closing of the sunroof of a motor vehicle is achieved by an electric system controlling a hydraulic rod to pull up the sunroof, the cost of the electric system is high and after a power outage in the vehicle, the electric system cannot control the hydraulic rod to open and close the sunroof, the present invention provides a sunroof that can realize manual mechanical opening or closing of the window, does not require the setting of a complex electric control system, saves costs, and is not affected by power outages in the motor vehicle.
[0020] It should be noted that the sunroof described in the present invention is used for but not limited to motor vehicles, etc. Motor vehicles can be but not limited to private cars, buses or locomotives, etc. For the convenience of explanation, in the present invention, only the application of the sunroof to a motor vehicle is used as an example for explanation, and the principles of applying the sunroof to other types of equipment are essentially the same as those applied to motor vehicles, and will not be elaborated here.
[0021] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 The schematic diagram of the structure of a skylight in an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The skylight 100 includes a window frame 1, a window cover 2, and an elastic component 3. The window frame 1 is hollow and has a window 11 formed therein. One side of the window cover 2 is rotatably connected to the window frame 1 to open or close the window 11. One end of the elastic component 3 is rotatably connected to the window frame 1, and the other end is rotatably connected to the window cover 2. The elastic component 3 can first accumulate elastic force and then release the elastic force when the window cover 2 is rotated to open the window 11.
[0022] In this embodiment, the window cover 2 is rotatably connected to the window frame 1 , which can be understood as the window cover 2 is directly rotatably connected to the window frame 1 , or the window cover 2 is indirectly rotatably connected to the window frame 1 through other components. Figure 1 One side of the window cover 2 of the illustrated embodiment is rotatably connected to the window frame 1 via two elastic components 3, so that the window cover 2 is rotated relative to the window frame 1 via the two elastic components 3, so that one side of the window 11 is opened or closed. In addition, the other side of the window cover 2 is also rotatably connected to the window frame 1 via the two elastic components 3, and the window cover 2 can be rotated relative to the window frame 1 via the two elastic components 3 on either side, so that one side of the window cover 2 opens or closes the window 11, thereby achieving ventilation on one side of the window 11; the window cover 2 can also be rotated via the elastic components 3 on both sides at the same time, so that both sides of the window cover 2 open or close the window 11, thereby achieving ventilation on both sides of the window 11.
[0023] When the window 11 is in a closed state, the elastic component 3 limits the window cover 2 by elastic force, so that the window cover 2 is stably maintained in the closed position. When the window 11 is in an open state, the elastic component 3 limits the window cover 2 by elastic force, so that the window cover 2 is stably maintained in the open position.
[0024] When the window cover 2 rotates from the closed position to the open position, the window cover 2 first compresses the elastic component 3 to accumulate elastic force, and when the elastic component 3 is compressed to the limit position, the window cover 2 continues to rotate, and the elastic component 3 gradually releases the elastic force until it is completely released to drive the window cover 2 to rotate to the open position. Similarly, when the window cover 2 rotates from the open position to the closed position, the change process of the elastic component 3 is the same.
[0025] In one embodiment, see Figures 1 to 3The window cover 2 includes a cover body 21 and a handle 22. One end of the handle 22 is connected to the cover body 21 and the other end is connected to the elastic component 3. A pull-out 23 is formed between the handle 22 and the cover body 21. The end of the elastic component 3 away from the window frame 1 is rotatably connected to the handle 22. In this embodiment, the handle 22 is roughly U-shaped, and its open end is connected to the cover body 21. A closed pull-out 23 is formed between the handle 22 and the cover body 21. The user can insert his hand into the pull-out 23 to drive the cover body 21 to rotate to open or close the window 11. The present embodiment has two handles 22. According to actual ventilation needs, one or both of the handles 22 can be manipulated to ventilate one or both sides of the skylight at the same time. If the handle 22 on one side of the skylight is manipulated to be opened, ventilation can be achieved on that side of the skylight. If both handles 22 are manipulated to be opened, ventilation can be achieved on both sides of the skylight. For example Figure 2 Both sides of the skylight in the illustrated embodiment are opened, allowing ventilation on both sides. Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, only one side of the sunroof is opened, and the opened side can be ventilated, and the handle 22 on the unopened side is only slightly rotated, and the elastic force exerted by the elastic component 3 on the handle 22 on this side is very small and can be ignored, and does not affect the opening of the other side of the sunroof. Therefore, the user can selectively open one side of the sunroof or open both sides of the sunroof at the same time according to the ventilation direction required in the car to achieve one-side ventilation or double-side ventilation.
[0026] In one embodiment, the elastic component 3 is a spring, one end of the spring is rotatably connected to the handle 22, and the other end is rotatably connected to the window frame 1. When the cover 21 rotates, the spring can be compressed to accumulate elastic force. When the spring is compressed to the shortest, the spring gradually extends to release the elastic force to drive the cover 21 to continue to rotate until the spring completely releases the elastic force. At this time, the spring can limit the cover 21 by its elastic force to prevent the cover 21 from rotating accidentally. The elastic component 3 of this embodiment is only one spring, with a simple structure, easy disassembly and assembly, and low cost.
[0027] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 and Figure 4The elastic component 3 includes an elastic member 31, a first slide 32, and a second slide 33. The elastic member 31 is a spring. One end of the first slide 32 is rotatably connected to the handle 22, and the other end of the first slide 32 is slidably connected to the second slide 33. The end of the second slide 33 away from the first slide 32 is rotatably connected to the window frame 1, and the elastic member 31 connects the first slide 32 and the window frame 1. In this embodiment, when the user holds the handle 22 to drive the cover body 21 from the closed position to the open position, the handle 22 drives the first slide 32 to slide close to the second slide 33, and at the same time, the handle 22 drives the elastic member 31 to be compressed to accumulate elastic force. When the elastic member 31 is compressed to the shortest, the elastic member 31 releases the elastic force to drive the handle 22 to continue to rotate, and the handle 22 drives the first slide 32 to gradually slide away from the second slide 33 until the elastic member 31 completely releases the elastic force. Compared with the previous embodiment, the present embodiment adds a first slide cylinder 32 and a second slide cylinder 33 to make the rotation of the window cover 2 more stable. The first slide cylinder 32 and the second slide cylinder 33 can also limit the window cover 2 to a certain extent, thereby preventing the window cover 2 from shaking left and right.
[0028] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The handle 22 is provided with a fixing member 24 and a first latch 25, an installation space is formed between the fixing member 24 and the handle 22, an end of the first slide 32 is located in the installation space, and the first latch 25 penetrates the handle 22 and the first slide 32. In this embodiment, the handle 22 and the first slide 32 are rotatably connected by the first latch 25, and the disassembly and assembly are convenient.
[0029] In one embodiment, see Figure 1 The window frame 1 is provided with a U-shaped member 12 and a second latch 13, the second slide 33 is located in a U-shaped groove formed by the U-shaped member 12, and the second latch 13 passes through the U-shaped member 12 and the second slide 33. In this embodiment, the window frame 1 is provided with a U-shaped member 12, and the U-shaped member 12 is rotatably connected to the second slide 33 through the second latch 13, which is not only stable in connection, but also convenient for assembly and disassembly.
[0030] In one embodiment, see Figure 4 The skylight 100 further includes an elastic sealing ring 4, which is annular and arranged around the peripheral edge of the window frame 1. The elastic sealing ring 4 can elastically abut the cover body 21 when the cover body 21 covers the window frame 1, so as to waterproof the window 11. In other embodiments, the elastic sealing ring 4 can also be arranged on the window cover 2, specifically, on the side of the cover body 21 facing the window frame 1, and its installation position on the cover body 21 corresponds to the peripheral edge of the window frame 1, so that when the cover body 21 closes the window 11, the elastic sealing ring 4 can elastically press the peripheral edge of the window frame 1 to completely seal the window 11, play a waterproof role, especially on rainy days to prevent rainwater from entering the car.
[0031] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 , Figure 1 The handle 22 of the illustrated embodiment is rotatably connected to the window frame 1 via two elastic components 3, so that when the window 11 is opened or closed, multiple elastic components 3 can simultaneously limit the window cover 2, so that the window cover 2 can be stably fixed in the open position or the closed position.
[0032] In one embodiment, see Figure 5 , Figure 5 Another embodiment of the skylight 100 is shown. In this embodiment, only one handle 22 is provided. The side of the cover 21 away from the handle 22 is rotatably connected to the window frame 1 through the rotating shaft 5, so that the cover 21 can be rotated to open or close the window 11. In this embodiment, when opening or closing the window 11, only the handle 22 needs to be operated. The side of the skylight close to the handle can be ventilated. As needed, the ventilated side of the skylight can be directed to the front or rear of the motor vehicle to achieve the desired ventilation effect. Compared with the above-mentioned embodiment in which two handles 22 and multiple elastic components 3 are provided, this embodiment has a simpler structure and is more convenient to use.
[0033] In a second aspect, the present invention further provides a motor vehicle, comprising a vehicle body and the above-mentioned skylight 100, wherein a vent is provided on the roof of the vehicle body, and the skylight is provided at the vent. The vent is connected to the vehicle interior and the window 11 of the skylight 100, and when the vehicle interior needs to be ventilated, a person in the vehicle can hold the handle 22 of the skylight 100 to drive the window cover 2 to rotate, so as to open the window 11 and ventilate the vehicle interior. One side or both sides of the skylight 100 can be selectively opened as needed, which is convenient to use.
[0034] In order to better understand the present invention, the following Figures 1 to 5 The technical solution of the present invention is described in detail: The window frame 1 of the skylight 100 provided by the present invention can be installed on the vent of the roof of the motor vehicle. When the vehicle needs to be ventilated, the window cover 2 can be rotated relative to the window frame 1 to open the window 11. When the vehicle needs to be shielded from wind and rain, the window cover 2 can be covered on the window frame 1. In the process of opening the window 11, the window cover 2 rotates relative to the window frame 1, and the window cover 2 first causes the elastic component 3 to accumulate elastic force. After crossing the limit position of the elastic component 3, the elastic component 3 releases the elastic force to support the window cover 2, so that the window cover 2 can be kept in an open state. In the process of closing the window 11, the window cover 2 rotates in the opposite direction relative to the window frame 1, and the window cover 2 first causes the elastic component 3 to accumulate elastic force. After crossing the limit position of the elastic component 3, the elastic component 3 releases the elastic force to apply a limiting force to the window cover 2 to prevent the window cover 2 from opening the window 11. It can be seen that the window cover 2 of the present application only needs to be manually operated to open or close the window 11, and the window 11 is stably kept in an open or closed state by the elastic component 3. There is no need to set up a complex power control system, the cost is low, and it is not affected by the lack of power in the motor vehicle.
[0035] The specific implementation of the present invention described above does not constitute a limitation on the protection scope of the present invention.
