[0017] The umbrella-type car sunshade described in claim 5 has the same features as the umbrella-type car sunshade described in claim 3, but the outer fabric has increased light blocking properties, and the lining fabric has reduced light reflection efficiency, which can suppress temperature increases inside the vehicle. [Effects of the Invention]

[0018] According to the umbrella-type automobile sunshade described in claim 1, the umbrella-type automobile sunshade is placed on the interior side of the front window of an automobile and includes a sunshade body made of a substantially rectangular shading sheet, a handle that protrudes from the center of the sunshade body toward the backside and is configured to be flexible, and a plurality of ribs that are foldably attached to the top of the handle, the sunshade body being formed into a two-layer structure of an outer layer and a lining, with the ribs interposed between the outer layer and the lining, and the sunshade body being foldably attached to the ribs as the ribs are folded. Therefore, the handle that protrudes from the center of the sunshade body toward the backside and is configured to be flexible, and the plurality of ribs that are foldably attached to the top of the handle make it possible to store and transport it compactly, and because the sunshade body is formed into a two-layer structure of an outer layer and a lining, with the ribs interposed between the outer layer and the lining, an air layer is created between the layers, which more efficiently prevents the temperature inside the automobile from rising.

[0019] According to the umbrella-type car sunshade of claim 2, in the umbrella-type car sunshade of claim 1, the ribs are attached so that the tip, center, and base ends can each rotate and be foldable, and the outer fabric and the lining are sewn to the tip, center, and base ends of the ribs, respectively, and a space is provided between the outer fabric and the lining. Therefore, the sunshade can be stored and carried compactly with the extendable handle that protrudes from the center of the sunshade body toward the back surface and the multiple ribs that are foldably attached to the top of the handle. Furthermore, the sunshade body is formed with a two-layer structure of the outer fabric and the lining, and the ribs are interposed between the outer fabric and the lining, so that an air layer is created between the layers. Furthermore, since the edges of the outer fabric and the lining are only sewn together at the tips, air can flow from the outside into the space between the outer fabric and the lining, which more efficiently prevents the temperature inside the vehicle from rising.

[0020] According to the umbrella-type car sunshade of claim 3, in the umbrella-type car sunshade of claim 1 or 2, a bag portion into which the tips of the umbrella ribs are inserted is formed at the back edge of the outer fabric.Since the bag portion formed at the back edge of the outer fabric is designed to allow the tips of the umbrella ribs to be inserted, the tips of the umbrella ribs do not protrude outward from the sunshade body made of a shading sheet, and this prevents the windshield of the car from being damaged or the fingers from being injured when folding or opening the umbrella.

[0021] According to the umbrella-type car sunshade of claim 4 or 5, in the umbrella-type car sunshade of any one of claims 1 to 3, the outer material is made of a white-based sheet material with high solar light reflection efficiency, and the lining is made of a black-based sheet material with high heat absorption rate, so that the outer material has high light blocking properties, while the lining has low light reflection efficiency, thereby suppressing temperature rise inside the vehicle.

[Figure 5] 1 is a simplified diagram showing the folded state of the umbrella-type car sunshade according to the present invention; BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0023] Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.

[0024] FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the rear side of the umbrella-type car sunshade of the present invention, showing the outer fabric and the ribs and handle attached to it; FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the rear side of the umbrella-type car sunshade of the present invention; and FIG. 3 is an enlarged perspective view of the area around the rearview mirror axis relief portion.

[0025] In Figures 1 to 3, A is an umbrella-shaped automobile sunshade that is placed against the inside of the windshield FG of an automobile (inside the vehicle) to block sunlight (see Figure 4).The umbrella-shaped automobile sunshade A is formed in a roughly rectangular shape when viewed from the front so that it can cover almost the entire inner surface of the windshield FG and match the shape of the windshield FG.

[0026] The umbrella-shaped sunshade A for automobiles comprises a sunshade body 14 consisting of an outer fabric 20 and a lining 21, a handle 10 attached to the sunshade body so as to protrude from the center to the back side, and a foldable umbrella rib 13 formed from the upper end of the handle 10.

[0027] 1 and 2, the handle 10 is formed from a cylindrical handle body 12 and a telescopic handle 12 that is telescopically housed in the handle body, and a folding umbrella rib 13, which has the same structure as a general folding umbrella, is attached to the upper end of the handle body 12 so that it can be opened and closed. The folding umbrella rib 13 is formed so that it can be folded in two stages, with a rib base end 13c extending from the handle body 12, a rib center portion 13b attached foldably upward relative to the rib base end 13c, and a rib tip end 13a attached foldably downward from the rib center portion 13b.

[0028] The folding umbrella ribs 13 consist of ten ribs attached at approximately equal intervals in a conical shape to the upper end of the handle body 12, each extending to the edge of the sunshade body 14. The tips of the rib tips 13a are housed in and sewn to a bag-like attachment part 20a formed in the shape of a rectangular cylinder with a bottom attached to the underside of the edge of the outer fabric 20, and are also sewn to the outer fabric 20 at approximately the center (binding point 30) between the rib base end 13c and the rib center part 13b.

[0029] Furthermore, the lining 21 is sewn and attached to the foldable umbrella ribs 13 so as to sandwich the ribs 13 between the outer rib 20. The lining 21 is sewn at the binding points 30 shown in Fig. 2, at the tip of the rib tip 13a, the rib base 13c, and the approximate center of the rib center 13b (binding points 30), in the same manner as the outer rib 20.

[0030] In the sunshade body 14, the outer fabric 20 is made of a white-based sheet material to increase the light (sunlight) reflection efficiency and suppress the temperature rise inside the vehicle, while the lining 21 is made of a black-based sheet material to decrease the light (sunlight) reflection efficiency and suppress the temperature rise inside the vehicle. In addition, rearview mirror axis relief portions 22 and 23 are formed at the center of the upper end of the sunshade body 14, each of which is cut downward to allow the axis of the automobile rearview mirror BM to pass through.

[0031] The umbrella-type car sunshade A according to the present invention is constructed as described above. When in use, as shown in Figure 4, the folding umbrella ribs 13 are opened and placed inside the windshield FG of the car so that it conforms to the shape of the windshield FG. At this time, the telescopic handle 11 is extended and placed so that the lower end comes into contact with the dashboard.

[0032] The sunshade body 14 is formed in a two-layer structure of the outer material 20 and the lining material 21, and the folding umbrella ribs 13 are interposed between the outer material 20 and the lining material 21. As shown in Figure 3, an air layer S can be created between the outer material 20 and the lining material 21. The edges of the outer material 20 and the lining material 21 are sewn and fixed only at the tip of the base end 13c of the umbrella ribs, so the remaining edges are open, allowing outside air to be introduced and effectively preventing the temperature inside the vehicle from rising.

[0033] Furthermore, the outer surface 20 is made of a sheet material with a white base that has high solar light reflection efficiency, and the lining 21 is made of a sheet material with a black base that has high heat absorption rate, so that the outer surface 20 has high light blocking properties, while the lining 21 has low light reflection efficiency, thereby suppressing temperature increases inside the vehicle.

[0034] 4 is a perspective view showing the folding umbrella ribs 13 folded in two stages. The folding umbrella ribs 13 of the umbrella-type car sunshade A according to the present invention can be folded in two stages and tied together with the folding tie members 24 attached to the lining 21, making it very compact for storage and transportation.
