Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] To provide a frost protector and sunshade for an automobile windshield, which prevents frost from forming on the windshield in winter, prevents direct sunlight from entering the interior of the automobile in summer, and prevents the dashboard, steering wheel, etc. from becoming excessively hot, and which is equipped with a buzzer to notify when the cover body is lifted and removed. [Background technology]

[0002] In the coldest seasons, the surface of a car's windshield freezes, forcing people to do the tedious and time-consuming work of pouring hot water over it before going to work or scraping it off with an ice scraper, which are widely available at gas stations and car shops.In addition, in the summer, the steering wheel, seats, etc. inside the car become so hot due to the radiant heat of the sun that they become impossible to touch.For this reason, some car windshield covers made of insulating material sheets have become known, with the aim of preventing the windshield from freezing and insulating it. The easiest and least expensive method is to use cardboard sheets or blankets, but they are not often used because they look unsightly, are tedious to install and remove, and require a lot of work to clean up wet surfaces. Some of the previously known types include a suction cup type that has two suction cups for temporarily attaching the cover to the top of the inside of the windshield and two suction cups for setting the cover on what will become the inside of the windshield, and a magnetic type that uses magnets to set the cover on the left and right support pillars of the windshield.

[0003] A known automobile windshield cover for the above purpose is described in JP 2006-213155 A. This consisted of a sheet large enough to cover the automobile windshield, which was attached to both edges of the windshield with hook-and-loop fasteners.

[0004] However, with this method, it is necessary to attach the hook-and-loop fasteners to both side edges of the windshield of the automobile every time it is used, and then remove the hook-and-loop fasteners after use, which is extremely troublesome.

[0005] There is also a known product described in the public notice of Utility Model Registration No. 3237323 as a defroster for automobile front windshields. This product is a resin sheet half the size of a car's windshield, covering the right and left sides, fixed at the top with suction cups, and fixed at the bottom with wipers, and the sheet can be folded in half for storage.

[0006] However, in the winter when frost falls and temperatures drop below zero, the suction cups harden and come off, rendering them useless. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0006] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2006-213155 [Patent Document 2] Utility Model Registration No. 3237323 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007] The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its object is to provide a new windshield frost protector and sunshade for an automobile that is easy to attach and detach from an automobile, is foldable, and is lightweight. [Means for solving the problem]

[0007] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention uses a cover body 1 made of plastic cardboard material that is water-resistant, hollow, insulating, and lightweight, and has cutouts 10 along the entire vertical length of the cover body 1 to make it foldable, and the cover body 1 is fixed to the windshield with suction cups 2 on both sides of the cover body 1 to prevent it from coming off, and is fixed by hooking it onto the car's door mirror with elastic strings 4, and an elastic ball 5 is attached to a hole on the bottom of the cover body 1 to prevent it from shifting and to act as a weight, and it is also equipped with a detection buzzer 7 to sound when the cover body 1 floats or comes off. [Effects of the Invention]

[0008] According to the present invention, the cover body 1 is made of plastic cardboard, which provides a frost-proof effect, and its lightweight hollow structure allows even women to easily lift it and install / remove it. Furthermore, the hollow structure of the cover body 1 provides insulation in the summer, and the gap between the car's windshield and the cover body 1, combined with the hollow gap in the plastic cardboard, provides double insulation. The cover body 1 is a light-blocking color, which blocks sunlight, making it usable in both summer and winter.

[0009] In the summer, the cover body 1 is secured to the windshield of the car with suction cups 2 to prevent it from coming off, and in the winter, when defrosting, the cover body 1 can be secured by hooking it onto the door mirror with rubber string 4. On windy days, both the suction cups 2 and rubber string 4 can be used. The elastic ball 5 attached to the lower hole of the cover body 1 fits into the cowl top cover of the car, making it less likely to slip off, and is effective in preventing the cover body 1 from coming off due to wind.

[0010] When attaching the cover body 1 to a car, the folded cover body 1 is opened, held with both hands, placed on the car's cowl top cover and leaned against the top of the windshield, and can be easily installed like leaning a bamboo blind against something.

[0011] A buzzer operated by a lever switch 8 is installed on the back of the cover body 1, and the buzzer sounds to warn when the cover 1 lifts off the windshield of the car. The power switch for the buzzer uses a system where a pin is removed and a switch is turned on when the string is pulled, like the security buzzers attached to children's school bags. Once the buzzer sounds, it cannot be stopped without the pin, which is effective in preventing tampering. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0012] [Figure 1] This is a photo of the product of the present invention installed in a car. [Figure 2] FIG. 2 is a plan view showing a state in which parts are attached to the front and back surfaces of the cover body 1. [Figure 3] This is a diagram showing a cover body 1 with a cutout 11. [Figure 4] FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the cover body 1 folded in three. [Figure 5] This is an eye mesoscopic diagram of a rubber ball 5 with two skewers 6 inserted into it. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0013] The present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings. Figure 1 shows a state in which a cover body 1 of the present invention is attached to the windshield of an automobile. The wiper is also covered by the cover 1 and fixed with a suction cup 2 and a rubber string 4.

[0014] Figure 2 shows the surface of the cover body 1 of the present invention in an unfolded state. Suction cups 2 are inserted from the back side onto both sides of the cover body 1 to secure it in place. Rubber string 4 is passed through holes in resin block 3 and its end is tied to prevent it from coming off. The length of rubber string 4 is set so that it can be placed under the door mirror. Two skewer rods 6 inserted into elastic balls 5 are inserted into holes on the bottom of the cover body 1 to secure it in place.

[0015] The back of cover body 1 in Figure 2 contains a battery, power switch, and buzzer in the detection buzzer section, which is connected to lever switch 8 with electric wire 9, and is designed so that the buzzer sounds when the power switch is turned on and the lever part that is in contact with the windshield is removed from the windshield. The power switch is a pin switch like the security buzzers that children have, so that only the person with the pin can stop the buzzer when it is ringing.

[0016] Figure 3 shows the cover body 1 with cutouts 10 made in it. There are two cutouts 10 along the entire length in the vertical direction, but the position and spacing of the cutouts 10 change depending on whether the cover is folded in three or four.

[0017] Figure 4 shows the cover body 1 folded in thirds across its width. A notch 10 is made along the entire length of the cover 1 in the vertical direction so that it can be folded in the opposite direction from the fold. This is so that when the cover body 1 is unfolded and held, it becomes a single plate that does not fall toward the notch, making it easier to set on the windshield from the side of the car. It is also possible to fold it in fourths by making three vertical notches.

[0018] Figure 5 shows an eye meso diagram in which two skewer rods 6 are inserted and fixed into a rubber ball 5, and the protruding parts of the skewers are inserted into the holes on the bottom of the cover body 1 to be integrated with the cover body 1. The material of the skewer rods 6 should be light and unbreakable, such as wood, bamboo, or resin.

[0019] To install the cover body 1 of the present invention on a car, stretch the cover body 1 widthwise, place the elastic ball 5 on the car's cowl top cover, and then tilt it down onto the windshield to cover the entire surface of the windshield, including the car's wipers, and then secure it with the suction cups 2 and rubber strings 4. To remove the cover body 1, follow the steps in reverse to the installation and then fold it down to complete the process. [Explanation of symbols]
