The curtain can move back and forth along the guide rail to block the skylight glass or reveal the skylight glass. When the curtain blocks the skylight glass, in order to ensure the blocking effect, the curvature of the guide rail is generally required to match the curvature of the skylight glass. For skylight glasses with different curvatures, the guide rail is not universal, resulting in the need to use different jigs to manufacture a variety of different guide rails, which results in high manufacturing costs and low manufacturing efficiency for the guide rails.

[0067] To make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solution of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the specific embodiments of the present application and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0068] Figure 1 The vehicle sunshade device 1 according to one embodiment of the present application is schematically shown. The vehicle sunshade device 1 can be installed on a vehicle roof 10 (such as Figure 2a In one embodiment, for a vehicle equipped with a sunroof, the vehicle roof panel 10 may be a sunroof glass.

[0069] like Figure 1As shown, the vehicle sunshade device 1 includes a frame assembly 2, a reel assembly 3 and a drive assembly 4. The frame assembly 2 includes two substantially parallel guide rails 21 mounted on the vehicle roof 10. The drive assembly 4 is also mounted on the vehicle roof 10. The reel assembly 3 is also mounted on the vehicle roof 10 and is located at one end of the two guide rails 21. In one embodiment, the reel assembly 3 includes a reel body 3, two reel brackets 32 for supporting the two ends of the reel body 31 and a curtain (not shown in the figure). At least part of the curtain (not shown in the figure) is wound on the reel body 31, and sliding feet (not shown in the figure) are respectively provided at both ends of the free edge, and the sliding feet are connected to the drive assembly 4 and slide together with the corresponding guide rails 21. In this way, the curtain can be released from the reel body 31 and move along the two guide rails 21 to cover the skylight glass, or rolled up on the reel body 31 to reveal the skylight glass. The movement mode of the curtain is also well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be repeated here.

[0070] Next, the frame assembly 2 will be described.

[0071] Further references Figure 2b The frame assembly 2 includes not only the two guide rails 21 described above, but also a plurality of clamping members 23. The two guide rails 21 are clamped by the clamping members 23 so as to be installed on the vehicle roof 10. As shown in the figure, the clamping members 23 are spaced apart from each other. For simplicity, the installation of the guide rails is described below by taking one guide rail as an example.

[0072] The guide rail 21 is elastic. For example, the guide rail 21 is made of a plastic material. In one embodiment, the plastic material may be glass fiber reinforced nylon. The guide rail made of plastic is light in weight and low in price. Moreover, when the guide rail made of plastic collides with other components, the noise generated is small and gentle, which helps to improve the user's experience. In addition, compared with the aluminum guide rail in the prior art, the guide rail made of plastic does not need anodizing treatment, which is conducive to protecting the environment.

[0073] When the guide rail 21 is mounted on the vehicle roof 10, the clamping members 23 are first fixedly mounted at predetermined positions of the vehicle roof 10, and then the guide rail 21 is clamped on the clamping members 23. In the case where the vehicle roof 10 is in the form of a curved surface, the clamping members 23 are arranged in an arc that matches the curvature of the vehicle roof 10. In this way, the elastic guide rail 21 is automatically adjusted by the clamping members 23 to have a curvature that matches the curvature of the vehicle roof 10. This greatly simplifies the assembly operation of the guide rail 21.

[0074] For different vehicle roof panels with different curvatures, the elastic guide rails can be exactly the same (for example, the guide rails are all straight before installation) and can be universally used for these different vehicle roof panels. This is because when the guide rail 21 is installed on the vehicle roof panel 10, the plurality of clamps 23 automatically adjust the curvature of the guide rail 21 to match the curvature of the vehicle roof panel 10. As a result, multiple manufacturing tools are no longer required to manufacture multiple guide rails with different curvatures for these vehicle roof panels with different curvatures, which is conducive to improving the manufacturing efficiency of the guide rails and helping to reduce the manufacturing cost of the guide rails.

[0075] like Figure 2b As shown, each clamping member 23 is fixedly mounted on the vehicle roof 10 via a first connecting module 101, and the first connecting modules 101 for different clamping members 23 are separated from each other. For example, the first connecting module 101 is a PU (i.e., polyurethane) module. As a result, there is no need to set a PU strip with a length almost equal to the guide rail on the vehicle roof to install the guide rail as in the prior art, but only needs to set several PU modules at several preset positions on the vehicle roof. This reduces the usage of PU, and thus reduces the installation cost of the vehicle sunshade device 1. It should be understood that the first connecting module 101 can also be made of other materials, which is not limited here.

[0076] In some other embodiments, the guide rails may also be directly connected to these PU modules for installation on the roof of the vehicle, which will not be described in detail here.

[0077] like Figure 3a and Figure 3b As shown, the clamping member 23 includes a mounting plate 230 and a first clamping rib 231 and a second clamping rib 232 extending from the mounting plate 230. The mounting plate 230 is fixedly connected to the first connecting module 101 to fix the clamping member 23 to the vehicle roof 10. The first clamping rib 231 and the second clamping rib 232 are separated along the transverse direction T of the guide rail 21 (i.e., the width direction of the guide rail 21).

[0078] The second clamping rib 232 has a mating surface 235 (eg, Figure 3b shown).

[0079] Further references Figure 4a and Figure 4b The guide rail 21 includes a guide rail body 210 and a receiving groove 211 and an elastic locking rib 221 formed on the guide rail body 210. The receiving groove 211 and the locking rib 221 are separated along the transverse direction T of the guide rail, and the receiving groove 211 corresponds to the first clamping rib 231, and the locking rib 221 corresponds to the second clamping rib 232.

[0080] When the guide rail 21 is mounted on the clamping member 23 (such as Figure 5As shown in the figure, the first clamping rib 231 is locked and connected with the receiving groove 211 (for example, the first clamping rib 231 is accommodated in the receiving groove 211); the locking rib 221 abuts against the mating surface 235 of the second clamping rib 232. As a whole, the receiving groove 211 and the locking rib 221 of the guide rail 21 are generally located between the first clamping rib 231 and the second clamping rib 232 of the clamping member 23. The first clamping rib 231 applies a first thrust to the receiving groove 211, and the second clamping rib 232 applies a second thrust to the locking rib 221, and the direction of the first thrust and the direction of the second thrust are generally toward each other along the transverse direction T of the guide rail 21. As a result, the locking rib 221 and the receiving groove 211 are clamped by the first clamping rib 231 and the second clamping rib 232, and then the guide rail 21 is stably mounted on the clamping member 23, thereby preventing the guide rail 21 from shaking along the transverse direction T.

[0081] In addition, by separating the first clamping rib 231 from the receiving groove 211 and separating the second clamping rib 232 from the locking rib 221, the guide rail 21 can be separated from the clamping member 23, and then the guide rail 21 can be removed from the vehicle roof panel 10. In other words, the guide rail 21 is installed on the vehicle roof panel 10 in a detachable manner, which facilitates maintenance of the vehicle sunshade device 1 as needed. This is particularly beneficial for after-sales maintenance of the vehicle.

[0082] Also like Figure 3b As shown, the first clamping rib 231 has a first abutting surface 233 facing the second clamping rib 232 and a second abutting surface 234 away from the second clamping rib 232. Figure 4a As shown, the receiving groove 211 includes a first side wall 213 extending along the longitudinal direction L of the guide rail 21 (i.e., the length direction of the guide rail 21) and a second side wall 214 opposite to the first side wall 213. Overall, the first side wall 213 and the second side wall 214 define the receiving groove 211 together.

[0083] When the guide rail 21 is mounted on the clamping member 23, as shown in FIG. Figure 6a As shown, firstly, the receiving groove 211 is sleeved onto the first clamping rib 231, and the first side wall 213 is rotatably abutted against the first abutting surface 233 of the first clamping rib 231, and the abutting position forms a rotation fulcrum. At this time, the locking rib 221 is separated from the second clamping rib 232. Next, as Figure 6b As shown, the guide rail 21 is rotated clockwise around the rotation fulcrum to move the locking rib 221 toward the second clamping rib 232 until the top 225 of the locking rib 221 contacts the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232 (as shown in FIG. Figure 6c Then, as Figure 6dAs shown, the guide rail 21 is rotated clockwise continuously, and the locking rib 221 is pushed by the second clamping rib 232 to elastically deform substantially toward the first clamping rib 231. After the top 225 of the locking rib 221 moves over the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232, the locking rib 221 abuts against the matching surface 235 of the second clamping rib 232. At the same time, the first side wall 213 remains in abutment with the first abutting surface 233 of the first clamping rib 231, and the second abutting surface 234 of the first clamping rib 231 abuts against the second side wall 214, so as to lock the first clamping rib 231 in the receiving groove 211. In this way, the guide rail 21 is stably mounted on the clamping member 23.

[0084] The disassembly process of the guide rail 21 is opposite to the installation process of the guide rail 21. For example, first, the locking rib 221 is elastically deformed toward the first clamping rib 231, and the guide rail 21 is rotated counterclockwise around the rotation fulcrum until the locking rib 221 is separated from the second clamping rib 232. Then, the receiving groove 211 is separated from the first clamping rib 231. In this way, the guide rail 21 can be easily disassembled from the clamping member 23.

[0085] Also like Figure 3b As shown, a ball socket 237 is provided on the first abutting surface 233. For example, the ball socket 237 is formed at the connection between the first clamping rib 231 and the mounting plate 230. Figure 4b As shown, the longitudinal edge 216 of the first side wall 213 of the receiving groove 211 extending along the longitudinal direction L of the guide rail 21 forms an arcuate surface matching the ball socket 237. In this way, the longitudinal edge 216 of the first side wall 213 of the receiving groove 211 and the ball socket 237 form a connection similar to a ball hinge, so that during the installation or removal process of the guide rail 21, the guide rail 21 can easily rotate relative to the clamping member 23. Moreover, when the guide rail 21 rotates, the ball socket 237 has a retaining effect on the longitudinal edge 216 of the first side wall 213, so that the guide rail 21 and the clamping member 23 are not easily disengaged, which makes the installation of the guide rail 21 easier.

[0086] Also like Figure 4bAs shown, a first guiding slope 218 is constructed on the surface of the second side wall 214 facing the first side wall 211 (i.e., the surface of the second side wall 214 in the receiving groove 211) to expand the opening size of the receiving groove 211. In this way, from the overall point of view, the opening of the receiving groove 211 is larger, and the inner end is smaller. In the process of assembling the guide rail 21 to the clamping member 23, the first guiding slope 218 guides the first clamping rib 231 to enter the receiving groove 211, and the larger opening of the receiving groove 211 also facilitates the first clamping rib 231 to enter the receiving groove 211, thereby facilitating the installation of the guide rail 21. In addition, after the first clamping rib 231 is accommodated in the receiving groove 211, the smaller inner end of the receiving groove 211 makes the first clamping rib 231 closely abut against the second side wall 214, so that the first clamping rib 231 and the receiving groove 211 are stably locked and engaged together.

[0087] Also like Figure 4b As shown, the locking rib 221 has a weakened portion 222. The weakened portion 222 reduces the rigidity of the locking rib 221, so that the locking rib 221 is easy to bend and deform elastically. During the installation process of the guide rail 21, after the top 225 of the locking rib 221 contacts the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232, the locking rib 221 is easily pushed by the second clamping rib 232 to be elastically bent and deformed toward the first clamping rib 231. This reduces the difficulty of installing the guide rail 21 on the clamping member 23. Moreover, after the guide rail 21 is installed on the clamping member 23, the locking rib 221 is still in an elastically deformed state and thus remains stably engaged with the second clamping rib 232, which also helps to improve the stability of the guide rail 21.

[0088] In a specific embodiment, the thickness of the root 224 of the locking rib 221 (for example, the position of the locking rib 221 close to the guide rail body 210) is reduced to form a weakened portion. A recess 226 corresponding to the weakened portion 222 is provided on the side of the locking rib 221 away from the second clamping rib 232. In this way, when the locking rib 221 is elastically bent and deformed toward the first clamping rib 231, the recess 226 at the root 224 of the locking rib 221 can prevent the material of the locking rib 221 and the material of the guide rail body 210 from pushing against each other and causing adverse effects on the elastic deformation of the locking rib 221.

[0089] Also like Figure 4b As shown, a connecting groove 223 is configured on the locking rib 221. For example, the connecting groove 223 is close to the top 225 of the locking rib 221 away from the guide rail body 210 and opens toward the second clamping rib 232. Figure 5 As shown, after the guide rail 21 is installed on the clamping member 23, a portion of the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232 (for example, the corner of the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232) is snapped into the connecting groove 223, thereby achieving stable engagement of the locking rib 221 with the second clamping rib 232.

[0090] Also like Figure 4b As shown, the top 225 of the locking rib 221 is configured with a second guiding slope 227. The second guiding slope 227 matches the surface of the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232. When the guide rail 21 is installed, the second guiding slope 227 of the top 225 of the locking rib 221 contacts the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232 (as shown in FIG. Figure 6c As shown in FIG. 2 , the guide rail 21 is rotated clockwise continuously, and the top 225 of the locking rib 221 can easily slide over the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232 under the guidance of the second guide slope 227, and then the end 236 of the second clamping rib 232 is engaged with the connecting groove 223 on the locking rib 221. This makes the installation of the guide rail 21 more convenient.

[0091] Also like Figure 3b and Figure 5 As shown, the first clamping rib 231 and the second clamping rib 232 extend toward each other. Overall, the first clamping rib 231 and the second clamping rib 232 are both substantially formed in the shape of a hook. The first clamping rib 231 hooks the receiving groove 211 (or the first side wall 213 of the receiving groove 211), and the second clamping rib 232 hooks the locking rib 221. This makes the connection between the guide rail 21 and the clamping member 23 more stable, and prevents the guide rail 21 from moving downward or deforming along the vertical direction Z perpendicular to the vehicle roof 10.

[0092] Also like Figure 3a As shown, the clamping member 23 also includes a clamping rib 239. For example, the clamping rib 239 extends from the mounting plate 230 and is between the first clamping rib 231 and the second clamping rib 232. The clamping rib 239 also corresponds to the guide rail body 210. After the guide rail 21 is installed on the clamping member 23, the clamping rib 239 abuts against the guide rail body 210 and presses the guide rail body 210, which can prevent the guide rail 21 from deforming upward in the vertical direction Z. For example, when installing or removing the interior decoration parts on the guide rail 21, the guide rail 21 will be subjected to a force in the vertical direction Z. However, under the restraining action of the clamping rib 239, the first clamping rib 231 and the second clamping rib 232, the guide rail 21 will not or hardly deform or move upward or downward in the vertical direction Z.

[0093] In one embodiment, Figure 3c As shown, some clamping members 23 also include hooks 238. The hooks 238 can be used to carry or constrain the wiring harness 43 (such as Figure 1). For example, the wire harness 43 is connected to the motor 411 (described below) of the drive assembly 4 to power the motor 411. In one embodiment, the hook 238 extends from the mounting plate 230 to the outside of the guide rail 21 along the transverse direction T. In this way, the wire harness 43 deviates from the guide rail 21 along the transverse direction T to facilitate the arrangement of the wire harness 43. Of course, the wire harness can also be arranged in other positions, which is not limited here.

[0094] Next, the reel assembly 3 will be described.

[0095] As mentioned above, the reel assembly 3 includes a reel body 31, two reel supports 32 for supporting both ends of the reel body 31, and a curtain (not shown in the figure). Figure 1 As shown, each reel support 32 is fixedly mounted on the vehicle roof 10 via one or more second connection modules 102 (eg, Figure 2b For example, the second connection module 102 is also a PU module. The second connection module 102 is separate from the first connection module 101 described above, which also helps to reduce the amount of PU used when installing the vehicle sunshade device 1.

[0096] Also like Figure 7 As shown, each reel support 32 is also in contact with one end of the corresponding guide rail 21. Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, an interior decoration bracket 106 may also be fixedly arranged on the vehicle roof 10. The interior decoration bracket 106 abuts against the other end of the corresponding guide rail 21. In this way, the reel bracket 32 ​​and the interior decoration bracket 106 limit the corresponding guide rail 21 along the longitudinal direction L of the corresponding guide rail 21, thereby preventing the guide rail 21 from moving along the longitudinal direction L thereof.

[0097] It should be noted that if Figure 2b As shown, the interior trim bracket 106 is fixedly mounted on the vehicle roof panel 10 through a plurality of fifth connection modules 105 spaced apart from each other. The fifth connection module 105 may also be a PU module, thereby also helping to reduce the usage of PU.

[0098] Next, the drive assembly 4 will be described.

[0099] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2b The driving assembly 4 includes a motor bracket 412 and a motor 411 mounted on the motor bracket 412, and also includes a transmission bar 421 and a plurality of transmission bar brackets 422 carrying the transmission bar 421. The transmission bar 421 is connected to the sliding foot on the curtain and is driven by the motor 411 to move, thereby realizing that the curtain is unrolled from the reel body 31 or rolled onto the reel body 31. In one embodiment, the transmission bar 421 is a chain. Of course, the transmission bar 421 can also be in other forms, which will not be repeated here.

[0100] It should be noted that a plurality of slideways for the transmission bar 421 are provided on the guide rail 21. Figure 4a As shown, a first slideway 219a and a second slideway 219b are provided on the guide rail body 210. The first slideway 219a and the second slideway 219b both extend along the longitudinal direction L of the guide rail 21. The transmission bar 421 can reciprocate in the first slideway 219a and the second slideway 219b to pull the curtain to move. The matching mode of the transmission bar 421 and the guide rail 21 is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.

[0101] like Figure 2b As shown, the motor bracket 412 is fixedly mounted on the vehicle roof 10 through one or more third connection modules 103; each transmission bar bracket 422 is fixedly mounted on the vehicle roof 10 through one or more fourth connection modules 104. The fourth connection module 104 and the third connection module 103 can both be PU modules, and are separated from each other and the second connection module 102, which also helps to reduce the use of PU.

[0102] In addition, in the prior art, a connecting beam is connected between the two guide rails, and the motor and the transmission bar bracket are arranged on the connecting beam. In the solution of the present application, the connecting beam is omitted, so that the motor 411 (and the motor bracket 412) and the transmission bar bracket 422 are independent of each other, and can be arranged at the required position of the vehicle roof 10 according to actual conditions. This improves the flexibility of the vehicle sunshade device 1 in installing on the vehicle roof 10, and the size of the motor bracket 412 and the size of the transmission bar bracket 422 are also smaller than the connecting beam in the prior art, which helps to reduce the manufacturing difficulty and manufacturing cost of the vehicle sunshade device 1.

[0103] The above is only an embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, the present application may have various changes and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of the claims of the present application.
