Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of outdoor products technology, and in particular to a folding and telescopic vehicle-mounted canopy. Background Technology

[0002] Vehicle-mounted awnings (carside tents) are a common outdoor driving device for sun and rain protection, and are loved by many outdoor enthusiasts. Unlike traditional awnings that are set up independently on the ground, vehicle-mounted awnings use the vehicle as a support point and a natural extension of the shelter. Moreover, vehicle-mounted awnings do not take up space inside the vehicle. When in use, simply pull out the awning and extend the support legs to use it directly. The operation is convenient and simple.

[0003] Currently, due to legal restrictions that limit the length of vehicle sunroofs to the length of the vehicle roof itself, most vehicle sunroofs on the market are constructed using support poles of fixed length and width. This results in a narrower coverage area and insufficient scalability in different usage locations. Furthermore, in rainy weather, existing vehicle sunroofs tend to accumulate a lot of water on top, potentially causing them to collapse due to excessive load. Therefore, it is necessary to improve existing vehicle sunroofs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a foldable and retractable vehicle sunroof that can be expanded to increase the coverage area and avoid water accumulation at the top.

The housing has an internal space for accommodating the wing-shaped support frame, the telescopic support frame, and the strut support frame. The wing-shaped support frame and the telescopic support frame are rotatably connected to both sides of the accommodating space. The wing-shaped support frame and the telescopic support frame can be extended outwards relative to the housing or retracted into the accommodating space. When retracted, the wing-shaped support frame is in a facing position, and the telescopic support frame is in a stacked position. Two sets of strut support frames are provided, each rotatably connected to the telescopic support frame on both sides. When the telescopic support frame is extended outwards, the ends of the two sets of strut support frames can be inserted to form an upward arched shape.

[0021] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 12 A folding and retractable vehicle-mounted sunroof includes a housing 100, a wing-shaped support 200, a telescopic support 300, and a strut support 400. The housing 100 has an internal accommodating space for storing the wing-shaped support 200, the telescopic support 300, and the strut support 400. The wing-shaped support 200 and the telescopic support 300 are rotatably connected to both sides of the accommodating space. The wing-shaped support 200 and the telescopic support 300 can be extended outwards relative to the housing 100 or stored within the accommodating space. When the wing-shaped support 200 is stored, it is in a facing position; when the telescopic support 300 is stored, it is in a stacked position. Two sets of strut supports 400 are provided and rotatably connected to the telescopic supports 300 on both sides. When the telescopic supports 300 are extended outwards, the ends of the two sets of strut supports 400 can be inserted to form an upward arched shape.

[0023] Specifically, in this embodiment, the box 100 is installed on the top side of the vehicle, and the wing bracket 200 and telescopic bracket 300 are rotatably connected to both sides of the accommodating space inside the box 100. When the vehicle-mounted sunroof is used, the wing bracket 200 and telescopic bracket 300 on both sides are unfolded outwards. The wing bracket 200 can rotate 180° to unfold to both sides of the box 100, while the telescopic bracket 300 unfolds to the front of the box 100 and forms two support points with the vehicle. After the telescopic brackets 300 on both sides are unfolded into place, the strut brackets 400 on the two telescopic brackets 300 are rotated so that the two sets of strut brackets 400 are inserted into each other. After the two sets of strut brackets 400 are inserted, they will form an upward arched state. Then, one end of the sunroof is connected to the box 100 and the wing brackets 200 on both sides. The other end is stretched and fixed along the telescopic bracket 300, thereby enabling the vehicle sunroof to be unfolded and used, making it convenient and simple to unfold and use, and can be operated by one person. When the vehicle sunroof is not needed, the sunroof is rolled up and placed in the accommodating space of the box 100, and the support bracket 400 is rotated so that it is in the same direction as the telescopic bracket 300. Then, the wing bracket 200 and the telescopic bracket 300 are folded and stored in the accommodating space of the box 100. After storage, the wing brackets 200 on both sides are in a facing state, and the telescopic brackets 300 on both sides are in a stacked state. This makes the structure of the wing bracket 200, the telescopic bracket 300, the support bracket 400 and the sunroof compact after being stored in the accommodating space, thereby reducing the overall volume of the box 100, making the box 100 more compact, and easy to install and fix on vehicles of various models.

[0024] Furthermore, by extending the wing brackets 200 on both sides outward, the overall length of the vehicle-mounted sunroof during use can be effectively increased, thereby expanding the coverage area. The wing brackets 200 can also be stored in the storage space, so they will not affect the length of the box 100 itself, thus ensuring that the overall length of the vehicle-mounted sunroof does not exceed the length of the vehicle itself, meeting usage requirements. At the same time, by connecting the support rod brackets 400 to the telescopic brackets 300 on both sides, when the telescopic brackets 300 are extended outward, the two sets of support rod brackets 400 will interlock with each other and form an upward arch. The two sets of support rod brackets 400 can arch the top of the sunroof upward, allowing rainwater to slide down and preventing water accumulation on the top of the sunroof.

[0025] In addition, to facilitate the unfolding or folding of the vehicle-mounted sunroof, the box 100 in this embodiment includes a main box 110, a top cover 120, and a side cover 130. The top cover 120 is hinged to the top of the main box 110, and the side covers 130 are hinged to both sides of the main box 110. The top cover 120 and the side covers 130 can be flipped open or flipped closed relative to the main box 110 to form an accommodating space. Pivot seats 140 are respectively provided on both sides of the lower part of the accommodating space. The wing support 200 and the telescopic support 300 are rotatably connected to the pivot seats 140. The middle part of the accommodating space is provided with a connecting part 150 for installing the sunroof, and the connecting part 150 is provided with a slot 151. A fixing block 160 is provided at the top of the accommodating space.

[0026] The wing support 200 and the telescopic support 300 are rotatably connected to the pivot seat 140. The pivot seat 140 allows the wing support 200 and the telescopic support 300 to be rotated and stored in the lower part of the accommodating space, below the connecting part 150. After storage, the wing support 200 is positioned above the telescopic support 300, while the tarpaulin, when rolled up, is positioned above the connecting part 150. The tarpaulin is secured by passing straps through the fixing block 160. Finally, the side cover 130 and the top cover 120 are sequentially attached to the main box 110. The box 100 is folded down to store the vehicle-mounted sunroof and ensure that its overall length meets the requirements. When unfolded for use, the top cover 120 and the side cover 130 are flipped open in sequence to unfold the telescopic bracket 300 and the wing bracket 200 outward. The side cover 130, which is hinged on both sides, avoids obstructing the wing bracket 200, allowing it to unfold smoothly outward. This makes the structural design of the vehicle-mounted sunroof reasonable. The slot 151 of the connecting part 150 can be used to lock and install the first end of the sunroof to support it.

[0027] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In order to enable the unfolding of the wing support 200 and ensure its stability after unfolding without easy rotation, the wing support 200 in this embodiment includes a wing rod 210, a wing pivot 220, a fixed bushing 230, and a locking unit 240. The wing rod 210 is connected to the wing pivot 220, and the wing pivot 220 is rotatably inserted into the fixed pivot 230. A locking groove 221 is provided on the side wall of the wing pivot 220. The locking unit 240 is located outside the fixed bushing 230 and cooperates with the locking groove 221 to lock or unlock the wing rod 210 in the retracted and unfolded states.

[0028] The fixed bushing 230 is installed on the pivot seat 140, and the wing-shaped rotating shaft 220 is rotatably inserted into the fixed bushing 230. After insertion, the bottom of the wing-shaped rotating shaft 220 is limited by a retaining spring to prevent the wing-shaped rotating shaft 220 from disengaging from the fixed bushing 230. In addition, the wing rod 210 is connected to the wing-shaped rotating shaft 230. The wing rod 230 can be rotated outward to unfold or rotated inward to retract through the wing-shaped rotating shaft 220. When unfolded, the wing rod 210 will move to both sides of the box body 100, and the wing rod 210 on both sides will retract through the box body 100. The overall length can be increased, allowing for the installation of longer canopies (the length of the canopy extends along the axial direction of the box body), thereby increasing the coverage area. In addition, locking grooves 221 can be set at multiple angles on the wing pivot 220. By cooperating with the locking unit 240 and multiple locking grooves 221, the wing rod 210 can be locked at multiple angles of deployment. By locking it, it is ensured that the wing rod 210 will not easily rotate without external force, thereby ensuring the stability of the wing bracket 200 in use and storage.

[0029] Meanwhile, in order to facilitate the user to rotate and unfold the wing support 200 from the accommodating space, a handle 211 is provided on the wing rod 210 in this embodiment. The handle 211 allows the user to easily pull the wing rod 210 outward to make the wing rod 210 rotate at multiple angles and unfold the wing rod 210 at multiple angles. In addition, the handle 210 can also cooperate with the fixing block 160 at the top of the accommodating space to facilitate the fixing of the straps, thereby limiting and fixing the rolled-up canopy cloth above the accommodating space through the straps.

[0030] Furthermore, a locking groove 212 is provided on the wing rod 210. The locking groove 212 can also be used to easily install the first end of the canopy. The locking groove 212 on the wing rod 210 cooperates with the locking groove 151 of the connecting part 150 in the accommodating space. The locking groove 151 of the connecting part 150 in the accommodating space can be used to lock and install the middle part of the first end of the canopy, while the locking groove 212 on the two wings 210 can be used to lock and install the two sides of the first end of the canopy, thereby forming support for the first end of the canopy. The cooperation between the locking groove 212 and the locking groove 151 makes it easy and simple to lock and install the first end of the canopy. The locking groove 212 and the locking groove 151 are conventional locking methods on the market, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0031] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5To enable one-click unlocking of the wing support 200, the locking unit 240 in this embodiment includes a locking arm 241, a locking pin 242, a first elastic element 243, and a pressing element 244. A fixing plate 231 is provided on the outer wall of the fixing bushing 230. The middle part of the locking arm 241 is rotatably connected to the fixing plate 231. The locking pin 242 is provided at one end of the locking arm 241. The first elastic element 243 is located at the other end of the locking arm 241, and both ends of the first elastic element 243 abut against the locking arm 241 and the fixing bushing 230, respectively. The pressing element 244 is provided in the housing 100 and cooperates with the end of the locking arm 241 that has the first elastic element 243.

[0032] When the wing lever 210 needs to be extended outward, the user can press the pressing member 244. The pressing member 244 will act on the lower part of the locking arm 241, thereby causing the locking arm 241 to compress the first elastic member 243. The middle part of the locking arm 241 will swing around the fixed plate 231 to disengage the locking pin 242 on the upper part of the locking arm 241 from the locking groove 221 of the wing pivot 220. At this time, the user can rotate the wing lever 210 to extend it outward. After the wing lever 210 is extended into place, the upper part of the locking arm 241 will... The locking pin 242 will re-engage into the locking groove 221 at other angles of the wing pivot 220, thereby locking the wing rod 210 and ensuring the stability of the wing rod 210 during deployment. Furthermore, by setting the pressing part 244 on the housing 100, the pressing part 244 and the housing 100 can form an integral whole, making the housing 100 aesthetically pleasing and without gaps. At the same time, when unlocking, the user only needs to press the pressing part 244 to unfold or retract the wing rod 210, realizing the one-button unlocking function of the wing bracket 200, making the vehicle sunroof easy and simple to operate during use.

[0033] Please see Figures 6 to 10 In this embodiment, the box body 100 and the wing support 200 can serve as one of the support points for the canopy, while the telescopic support 300 can serve as the other support point for the canopy, so as to achieve the support of the canopy. In order to facilitate the storage and unfolding of the telescopic support 300, the telescopic support 300 includes a telescopic unit 310, a support unit 320 and a connecting rod 330. One end of the telescopic unit 310 is connected to a rotating seat 340, and the support unit 320 is rotatably connected to the other end of the telescopic unit 310 to unfold or retract. The telescopic unit 310 is fitted with a plug 350, which is located at the connection between the telescopic unit 310 and the support unit 320. When the telescopic units 310 and the support unit 320 on both sides are unfolded, the two ends of the connecting rod 330 are detachably connected to the plug 350 on the telescopic unit 310.

[0034] One end of the telescopic unit 310 is connected to the rotating seat 340, which is rotatably connected to the pivot seat 140 within the accommodating space. The other end of the telescopic unit 310 is rotatably connected to the support unit 320. When the telescopic bracket 300 needs to be unfolded, the rotating seat 340 drives the telescopic unit 310 to rotate, causing the telescopic unit 310 to rotate to the front of the housing 100. Then, the telescopic unit 310 and the support unit 320 are extended. After being extended to a certain length, the support unit 320 can be rotated to support the ground. When both the telescopic unit 310 and the support unit 320 are unfolded and extended to their positions, the two ends of the connecting rod 330 are respectively assembled with the plug-in parts 350 on the telescopic units 310 on both sides, thereby realizing the telescopic bracket 300. When the telescopic bracket 310 is unfolded and used, the connecting rod 330 is horizontally installed between the telescopic units 310 on both sides to limit and fix the telescopic units 310 and the support unit 320 on both sides, so as to ensure the stability between the telescopic units 310 and the support unit 320 and avoid the vehicle-mounted skylight from shaking during use. When the telescopic bracket 310 is stored, the connecting rod 330 is removed first, and then the support unit 320 and the telescopic unit 310 are retracted in sequence, so that the support unit 320 is retracted into the telescopic unit 310. Then, the telescopic unit 310 is rotated by the rotating seat 340 to store the telescopic unit 310 into the accommodating space. The telescopic units 310 on both sides will be stacked and stored, while the connecting rod 330 can roll up the skylight and store it together with the skylight into the upper part of the accommodating space.

[0035] In addition, the telescopic unit 310 in this embodiment is formed by a plurality of telescopic rods 311 sleeved together. Adjacent telescopic rods 311 are fixed together by locking members 360, and the extension position of the telescopic rods 311 is locked by locking members 360. The support unit 320 in this embodiment is formed by a plurality of support rods 321 sleeved together. The height of adjacent support rods 321 is adjusted and fixed together by through holes 322 on the support rods 321 and ball bearings 323 installed in the support rods 321.

[0036] For further details, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8In this embodiment, the connecting rod 330 includes a connecting main rod 331 and a connecting secondary rod 332. The two ends of the connecting main rod 331 are respectively hinged to the connecting secondary rod 332. The connecting secondary rods 332 at both ends can be folded or unfolded relative to the connecting main rod 331, and the connecting secondary rods 332 at both ends are in a relative state after being folded. By unfolding the connecting rods 332 at both ends, the overall length of the connecting rod 330 can be matched with the spacing between the telescopic units 310 on both sides, thereby ensuring that the ends of the connecting rods 320 on both sides can be inserted into the connectors 350 to assemble the connecting rod 330 and improve the overall stability of the telescopic bracket 300 during use. When storing the connecting rod 330, the connecting rods 332 at both ends of the connecting main rod 331 are folded relative to each other to reduce the overall length of the connecting rod 330. Then, the canopy is rolled up using the connecting rods 330 and stored together with the rolled-up canopy in the upper part of the box's accommodating space to facilitate the overall storage of the connecting rod 330.

[0037] To ensure rapid assembly of the connecting rod 330, the connector 350 includes an integrally formed sleeve portion 351 and a connector portion 352. The sleeve portion 351 is used to connect with the telescopic rod 311, while the connector portion 352 is provided with a mortise and tenon groove 353. Simultaneously, a mortise and tenon block 333 corresponding to the mortise and tenon groove 353 is provided at the end of the connecting auxiliary rod 332. When assembling the connecting rod 330, the connecting auxiliary rods 332 at both ends of the connecting main rod 331 are unfolded outwards, and the mortise and tenon blocks 333 at the ends of the connecting auxiliary rods 332 are directly inserted into the mortise and tenon groove 353 of the connector portion 352. This allows for rapid assembly between the connecting rod 330 and the connector 350, making operation of the vehicle-mounted panoramic sunroof convenient and simple.

[0038] Please refer to the figure. In order to achieve the tension locking between the telescopic rods 311, the locking member 360 includes a locking housing 361, a limiting clamp 362, and a second elastic member 363. A movable groove 364 is provided on the locking housing 361. The limiting clamp 362 is installed in the movable groove 364 and its top protrudes out of the movable groove 364. The second elastic member 363 is sleeved on it. A limiting block 365 is provided at the bottom of the limiting clamp 362. When the telescopic unit 310 is unfolded, the telescopic rods 311 can be pulled out sequentially. When pulled to a certain position, the limiting clamp 362 in the locking member 360, under the action of the second elastic member 363, causes its bottom limiting block 365 to engage with the next telescopic rod 311, thereby fixing the two adjacent telescopic rods 311. When it is necessary to retract, the limiting clamp 362 is pressed to make the limiting block 365 at the bottom of the limiting clamp 362 pop out from the telescopic rod 311, thus realizing the retraction between the telescopic rods 311. This makes the telescopic unit 310 convenient and quick to extend or retract, saving time and effort.

[0039] Finally, please see Figure 11 and Figure 12 Since the two sets of support rod brackets 400 will form an arched state after being plugged into each other, the support rod bracket 400 in this embodiment includes a support rod seat 410 and a support rod 420. The support rod seat 410 is made of soft material and is rotatably connected to the locking member 360. The support rod 420 is plugged into the support rod seat 410. The end of the support rod 420 in one set of support rod brackets 400 has a plug hole 421, and the end of the support rod 420 in the other set of support rod brackets 400 has a plug 422.

[0040] Inserting the support rod 420 with plug 422 into the support rod 420 with socket 421 allows the two sets of support rod brackets 400 to be interlocked. This interlocking method makes assembly of the two sets of support rods 420 simple and easy, requiring only one person. Furthermore, Velcro straps can be wrapped around the interlocking points after the two sets of support rods 420 are interlocked to improve stability. Simultaneously, because the support rod base 421 is made of a soft material, the two sets of support rods 422 will generate an interaction force after interlocking, applying pressure to the support rod base 421, thus strengthening the support rod base. 421 deforms, causing the two sets of support rods 422 to arch upwards after being inserted. When the skylight is laid on the support rod bracket 400, the top of the skylight will also arch upwards, making it easier for rainwater to slide down and preventing water accumulation on the top of the skylight when it is used in the rain. Furthermore, the support rods 420 apply pressure to the soft support rod base 410, so the support rods 420 will not damage the telescopic units 310 on both sides when they arch upwards, thus improving the service life of the car skylight.

[0041] When storing, the support rods 420 in the two sets of support rod brackets 400 are separated, and then the support rods 420 are rotated so that the direction of the support rods 420 is consistent with the direction of the telescopic rods 311 in the telescopic unit 310. Then the telescopic unit 310 is rotated into the accommodating space, and the support rods 420 are stored in the accommodating space, thereby realizing the storage of the support rod brackets 400.
