[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a rooftop luggage box with a sunshade, which combines camping and sunshade functions, effectively meeting the diverse needs of users.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a roof-mounted luggage box with a sunshade, comprising:

[0006] The box body has at least one side wall with a sunshade hole.

[0007] At least one set of awning components includes a drive unit, a rolling element, and a awning cloth. The drive unit is disposed inside the housing body. The rolling element is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the awning hole, and the rolling element is a roller. The inner wall surface of the roller and the drive shaft of the drive unit form an interference fit. The first end of the awning cloth is wound around the outer wall surface of the rolling element, and the second end of the awning cloth extends out in a predetermined direction, which is perpendicular to the length direction of the awning hole.

[0008] The awning assembly further includes:

[0009] A telescopic component, one end of which is connected to the inner wall of the sunshade hole, and the other end of which extends and retracts along the predetermined direction.

[0010] The telescopic component includes a first curved arm and a second curved arm that are hinged to each other. The first end of the first curved arm is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sunshade hole, and the second end of the second curved arm is rotatably connected to the second end of the sunshade cloth.

[0011] When the sunshade is extended, a preset angle is formed between the first curved arm and the second curved arm.

[0012] The first end of the first curved arm is provided with an elastic element, which is used to apply tension to the first curved arm and the sunshade cloth.

[0013] The elastic element is a tension spring. One end of the tension spring is connected to the first end of the first curved arm, and the second end of the second curved arm is connected to a pull rope. The pull rope passes around the first end of the second curved arm and is connected to the other end of the tension spring. When the sunshade is fully unfolded, the tension spring is in a stretched state.

[0014] The inner wall of the sunshade hole is provided with a limiting block, the bottom surface of the limiting block is flush with the top surface of the sunshade hole, and the bottom surface of the limiting block abuts against the top surface of the sunshade cloth.

[0015] The second end of the sunshade cloth is connected to a front-end shielding shell, the size of which is equal to the size of the sunshade hole.

[0016] When the sunshade is retracted, the side of the front shield that is away from the sunshade is flush with the side of the box body.

[0017] This also includes:

[0018] A support column, one end of which is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the front shield shell, and the other end of which is detachably connected to the front shield shell, wherein the support column is a telescopic rod structure.

[0019] This also includes:

[0021] The secondary telescopic component includes multiple telescopic rods, the cross-sectional area of ​​which gradually decreases along the predetermined direction.

[0022] Implementing this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] According to this embodiment, the roof luggage box with a sunshade extends along the length direction perpendicular to the sunshade hole by driving the telescopic component, and drives the sunshade cloth to extend from the side wall of the box body.

[0024] When the sunshade opening is located on the side wall extending along the length of the body, the telescopic component can drive the sunshade cloth to extend from the side of the vehicle, providing an additional sunshade rest area outside the vehicle. Users can camp or rest in this additional sunshade rest area outside the vehicle, thus enabling the roof box to have a camping function by utilizing the sunshade awning assembly extending from the side of the vehicle.

[0025] When the sun vent is located on the side wall extending along the width of the cargo box, the telescopic component allows the sun vent cloth to extend from the front of the vehicle, laying it flat to cover the front and blocking direct sunlight from entering the cabin. This effectively prevents the interior temperature from becoming too high due to sun exposure when the vehicle is parked, improving passenger comfort. Furthermore, the telescopic component allows the sun vent cloth to be quickly retracted into the sun vent, making operation simple. This also enables the roof box to function as a sunshade unit, extending from the front of the vehicle.

[0026] Therefore, this embodiment provides a sunshade hole on at least one side wall of the box body and arranges a sunshade cloth and telescopic component in the sunshade hole, so that the sunshade cloth can extend from the side and / or front of the vehicle according to actual needs, enabling the roof box to have camping and sunshade functions, effectively meeting different user needs and improving the user's experience of using the roof box and the vehicle.

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following will describe this utility model in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is hereby declared that the terms "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," "back," "inner," and "outer," etc., appearing or about to appear in this document, are based solely on the accompanying drawings and are not intended to specifically limit this utility model.

[0033] The roof box with a sunshade provided by this utility model can have both camping and sunshade functions, effectively meeting the different needs of users and improving the user experience of the roof box and the vehicle.

[0034] In one specific embodiment of this utility model, such as Figures 1 to 5As shown, the roof box with a sunshade includes a box body 3 and at least one set of sunshade assemblies 4. At least one side wall of the box body 3 has a sunshade hole. The sunshade assembly 4 includes a drive member 41, a rolling member 42, and a sunshade cloth 43. The drive member 41 is disposed inside the box body 3. The rolling member 42 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sunshade hole, and the rolling member 42 is a roller. The inner wall surface of the roller and the drive shaft of the drive member 41 form an interference fit to achieve a tight connection between the two parts and ensure that the roller can rotate stably under the drive of the drive shaft. The first end of the sunshade cloth 43 is wrapped around the outer wall surface of the rolling member 42, and the second end of the sunshade cloth 43 extends out in a predetermined direction, which is perpendicular to the length direction of the sunshade hole.

[0035] According to this embodiment, the roof luggage box with a sunshade canopy is driven by the drive member 41 to rotate the rolling member 42, so as to release the sunshade cloth 43 wrapped around the outer wall of the rolling member 42, so that the second end of the sunshade cloth 43 can extend from the side wall of the box body 3 along the length direction perpendicular to the sunshade hole, or the released sunshade cloth 43 can be rewound and wrapped around the outer wall of the rolling member 42.

[0036] Specifically, when the sunshade hole is located on the side wall of the body 3 extending along the length direction, the sunshade cloth 43 extends from the side of the vehicle, and the sunshade cloth 43 provides an additional sunshade rest area outside the vehicle on the side of the vehicle. Users can camp or rest in the additional sunshade rest area outside the vehicle, so the roof luggage box can be equipped with camping function by using the sunshade cloth 43 extending from the side of the vehicle.

[0037] When the sunshade hole is located on the side wall of the body 3 extending along the width direction, the sunshade cloth 43 extends from the front of the vehicle and is laid flat to cover the front of the vehicle. The sunshade cloth 43 blocks sunlight from directly entering the vehicle, effectively preventing the vehicle from becoming too hot due to sun exposure when parked, and improving the user's riding comfort. Thus, the sunshade cloth 43 extending from the front of the vehicle enables the roof luggage box to have a sunshade function.

[0038] Therefore, in this embodiment, by providing a sunshade hole on at least one side wall of the box body 3 and arranging a sunshade awning assembly 4 in the sunshade hole, the sunshade cloth 43 can extend from the side and / or front of the vehicle according to actual needs, so that the roof box can have camping and sunshade functions, effectively meeting the different usage needs of users and improving the user's experience of using the roof box and the vehicle.

[0039] Preferably, the driving component 41 is a drive motor. The housing of the drive motor can be fixed inside the housing body 3 by a bracket, or the housing of the drive motor can be directly installed inside the housing body 3 by bolts or other fasteners. The specific configuration can be made according to the actual situation.

[0040] It should also be noted that, for ease of explanation, the sidewall extending along the width direction of the box body 3 is designated as the first sidewall, and the sidewall extending along the width direction of the box body 3 is designated as the second sidewall. The box body 3 has two opposing first sidewalls and two opposing second sidewalls. When the sunshade 43 extends from the front of the vehicle, both first sidewalls can form sunshade holes, and a set of sunshade awning components 4 is provided in each of the sunshade holes of the two first sidewalls.

[0041] Since the front of most vehicles is usually longer and more complex than the rear, in order to fully shade the front of the vehicle, the extension length of the sunshade cloth 43 in the sunshade assembly 4 facing the front of the vehicle is L1, and the extension length of the sunshade cloth 43 in the sunshade assembly 4 facing the rear of the vehicle is L2. L1 is greater than L2, so as to ensure that the coverage area of ​​the sunshade cloth 43 on the front of the vehicle is greater than the coverage area of ​​the sunshade cloth 43 on the rear of the vehicle, thereby ensuring that the sunshade cloth 43 fully protects the front of the vehicle from direct sunlight.

[0042] Furthermore, to ensure that the sunshade 43 remains taut when extended or retracted, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the sunshade assembly 4 also includes a telescopic member 44. One end of the telescopic member 44 is connected to the inner wall of the sunshade hole, and the other end of the telescopic member 44 extends and retracts in a predetermined direction. Thus, when the sunshade cloth 43 extends or retracts, the bottom of the sunshade cloth 43 can be supported by the telescopic member 44, ensuring that the sunshade cloth 43 can extend or retract in a direction perpendicular to the length direction of the sunshade hole, while keeping the sunshade cloth 43 taut, ensuring that the sunshade cloth 43 can maintain a certain stability and firmness when it is extended.

[0043] In another embodiment of this utility model, the sunshade assembly 4 may not have the telescopic member 44. The sunshade assembly 4 may also include a shielding frame. Two shielding frames are arranged, and the two shielding frames are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two sides of the sunshade hole. An unfolding groove is formed on the inner side of the shielding frame. When it is necessary to release the sunshade cloth 43, the shielding frames on both sides can be rotated out of the sunshade hole and made perpendicular to the length direction of the sunshade hole. The second end of the sunshade cloth 43 is then inserted into the unfolding groove. The limiting effect of the unfolding groove allows the sunshade cloth 43 to extend along the length direction perpendicular to the sunshade hole. At the same time, the shielding frame can be used to maintain the stability of the sunshade cloth 43 when it is extended.

[0044] Specifically, such as Figure 3As shown, the telescopic component 44 includes a first curved arm 441 and a second curved arm 442 that are hinged to each other. The first end of the first curved arm 441 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the sunshade hole, and the second end of the second curved arm 442 is rotatably connected to the second end of the sunshade cloth 43. The first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442 gradually unfold when the sunshade cloth 43 is extended and gradually retract when the sunshade cloth 43 is retracted. The operation of the drive component 41 ensures that the sunshade can be flexibly unfolded and retracted, and ensures that the unfolding and retraction of the sunshade is smooth, so as to avoid affecting the user's use.

[0045] When the sunshade cloth 43 is extended, a preset angle is formed between the first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442 to increase the support area of ​​the first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442 on the sunshade cloth 43, disperse the load of the sunshade cloth 43, and make the sunshade cloth 43 more stable and less prone to deformation under the external force of wind pressure.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, an elastic element 443 is provided at the first end of the first curved arm 441. The elastic element 443 is used to apply tension to the first curved arm 441 and the sunshade cloth 43, so that when the sunshade cloth 43 extends or retracts, the elastic element 443 can ensure that the sunshade cloth 43 has a certain tension, and ensure that the sunshade cloth 43 can be smoothly extended or retracted.

[0047] Specifically, the elastic element 443 is a tension spring. One end of the tension spring is connected to the first end of the first curved arm 441, and the second end of the second curved arm 442 is connected to a pull rope 444. The pull rope 444 passes around the first end of the second curved arm 442 and is connected to the other end of the tension spring. When the sunshade 43 is fully unfolded, the tension spring is in a stretched state, so as to store or release elastic potential energy using the tension spring and pull rope 444 between the first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442, ensuring that tension can be applied to the sunshade 43.

[0048] When the sunshade 43 is not unfolded, the second curved arm 442 stretches the tension spring via the pull rope 444, and the tension spring has its longest extension length, meaning that the elastic potential energy stored in the tension spring is at its maximum. When the first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442 unfold, the extension length of the tension spring gradually decreases, and the elastic force released by the tension spring acts on the sunshade 43 through the first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442, ensuring that the sunshade 43 remains taut throughout its unfolding process. Even when the sunshade 43 is fully unfolded, the elastic force of the tension spring still ensures that the sunshade 43 remains taut, thereby improving... It provides a good sunshade effect; when the first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442 are retracted, the pull rope 444 re-stretches the tension spring, so that the tension spring re-stores elastic potential energy. At the same time, the first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442 are still subjected to the outward elastic force applied by the tension spring. Under the simultaneous action of the first curved arm 441 and the second curved arm 442 on both sides, the sunshade cloth 43 is still subjected to tension force on both sides of the sunshade cloth 43 when it is retracted, so that the sunshade cloth 43 can also remain taut when it is retracted, effectively reducing the wrinkles caused by the slack when the sunshade cloth 43 is retracted, and avoiding the deformation of the sunshade cloth 43.

[0049] The inner wall of the shading hole is equipped with a limiting block (not shown in the figure). The bottom surface of the limiting block is flush with the top surface of the shading hole, and the bottom surface of the limiting block abuts against the top surface of the shading cloth 43. The limiting block restricts the extension direction of the shading cloth 43, ensuring that the shading cloth 43 can extend from the shading hole and accurately cover the area requiring shading, thus guaranteeing the shading effect of the shading cloth 43. At the same time, when the shading cloth 43 is retracted, the limiting block can be used to ensure that the shading cloth 43 can be neatly wound onto the roll without leaving gaps or wrinkles, avoiding affecting the subsequent extension and unfolding of the shading cloth 43.

[0050] In this embodiment, as Figure 5 As shown, the second end of the sunshade cloth 43 is connected to a front cover 45, the size of which is equal to the size of the sunshade hole. When the sunshade cloth 43 is retracted, the side of the front cover 45 facing away from the sunshade cloth 43 is flush with the side of the box body 3, so that the sunshade hole can be covered by the front cover 45 after the sunshade cloth 43 is retracted, preventing the sunshade hole from being exposed and ensuring the overall aesthetic appearance of the box body 3.

[0051] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 5As shown, the roof box with a sunshade also includes a support column 46. One end of the support column 46 is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the front awning 45, and the other end of the support column 46 is detachably connected to the front awning 45. The support column 46 is a telescopic tube structure. Therefore, when the support column 46 is needed, the telescopic tube at the other end of the support column 46 can be detached from the front awning 45, and one end of the support column 46 can be rotated away from the front awning 45. The telescopic length of the support column 46 can be adjusted according to actual needs to provide support for the sunshade 43. When the support column 46 is not needed, it can be rotated towards the front awning 45, and the rear end of the support column 46 can be connected to the front awning 45, thus facilitating the quick storage of the support column 46.

[0052] By using the support column 46 to support the sunshade cloth 43 when it is extended, the stability of the sunshade cloth 43 when it is extended is significantly enhanced, effectively preventing the sunshade from being blown over or damaged by the wind.

[0053] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, pivots are formed on both sides of the bottom surface of the front shield shell 45, and the telescopic tube at the front end of the support column 46 is rotatably connected to the front shield shell 45 through the pivots. An overlapping boss 474 is formed in the middle of the bottom surface of the front shield shell 45. When the support column 46 is housed in the front shield shell 45, the telescopic tube at the rear end of the support column 46 extends out and overlaps between the overlapping boss 474 and the bottom surface of the front shield shell 45. When the support column 46 is needed to support the sunshade cloth 43, the telescopic tube at the rear end of the support column 46 can be retracted into the telescopic rod 475 at the front end of the support column 46, and the telescopic tube at the front end of the support column 46 can be rotated relative to the front shield shell 45 so that the sunshade cloth can be supported by the support column 46.

[0054] In another embodiment of this utility model, to further increase the sunshade area of ​​the roof luggage compartment, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the roof box with a sunshade also includes a secondary sunshade assembly 4. The secondary sunshade assembly 4 includes a secondary sunshade cloth 471 and a secondary telescopic component 472. The first end of the secondary sunshade cloth 471 is rotatably connected to the front cover shell 45 via a secondary roller. One end of the secondary telescopic component 472 is connected to the front cover shell 45, and the other end of the secondary telescopic component 472 is connected to the second end of the secondary sunshade cloth 471. Therefore, when it is necessary to increase the sunshade area of ​​the roof box, the secondary roller can be driven to rotate, releasing the secondary sunshade cloth 471, and the secondary telescopic component 472 can be used to extend the secondary sunshade cloth 471 further, thereby increasing the sunshade space below the sunshade cloth 43 and further meeting the user's requirements for the size of the sunshade rest area.

[0055] Specifically, the drive structure between the secondary shading cloth 471 and the secondary roller preferably adopts a drive motor. The drive shaft of the drive motor and the inner wall surface of the secondary roller are also interference-fitted to drive the secondary roller to rotate, thereby realizing the release and retraction of the secondary shading cloth 471.

[0056] The front shading housing 45 has a secondary shading hole formed on the side opposite to the shading cloth 43, and the secondary shading cloth 471 can extend from the secondary shading hole. A flip cover is arranged on the side wall of the secondary shading hole so that the secondary shading hole can be covered by the flip cover when the secondary awning assembly 4 is not in use.

[0057] Furthermore, the secondary telescopic component 472 includes multiple telescopic rods 475, the cross-sectional area of ​​which gradually decreases along a predetermined direction, so that the extension or retraction of the multiple telescopic rods 475 can drive the secondary sunshade cloth 471 to extend or retract.

[0058] The above description is the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the protection scope of this utility model.
