[0043] Figures 3 to 5 show three usage states of the canopy device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. To better understand the technical solution of the present invention, the embodiments shown in Figures 3 to 5 are used as examples to illustrate three commonly used usage modes of the canopy device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention.
[0044] Figure 3 shows the canopy device 1 in its first usage state. The user can accommodate the fourth covering part 19 (in this embodiment, a mosquito net, but the invention is not limited thereto) in the receiving part 18 and close the opening of the receiving part 18. For example, in the embodiment shown in Figure 3, the closing member 181 at the opening of the receiving part 18 is closed, thereby concealing the mosquito net within the receiving part 18, resulting in a smooth, simple, and aesthetically pleasing appearance for the canopy device 1. The first usage state of the canopy device 1 can be used when the mosquito net is not needed, but sunlight or other light is strong, or when it is raining or snowing.
[0045] Figure 4 shows the canopy device 1 in its second usage state. The user can move the first folding member 145 to the vicinity of the second folding member 147 (Figure 2), and then make the first folding member 145 and the second folding member 147 cooperate to fold and hide the third covering part 13. Obviously, at this time, the receiving part 18 and its closing member 181 (if present), as well as the curtain housed in the receiving part 18, are all hidden. In this state, the canopy device 1 still maintains a smooth, simple, and beautiful appearance. When the curtain is not needed, and the sunlight or other light is not strong or there is no wind or rain, the second usage state of the canopy device 1 can be used to provide children with a better view.
[0046] Figure 5 shows the canopy device 1 in its third usage state. The user can separate the first closing member 145 and the second closing member 147, then push the first closing member 145 away from the second closing member 147, and then open the closure member 181 to remove the mosquito net. The first fixing member 191 of the mosquito net is then fitted onto the footrest 21, and the second fixing member 193 of the mosquito net is engaged and secured with the corresponding element on the side of the canopy device 1, thus forming the state shown in Figure 5 where the canopy device 1 fully encloses and covers the interior space of the vehicle. When the mosquito net is needed, the third usage state of the canopy device 1 can be used to prevent mosquitoes and insects and provide comprehensive protection for children.
