Abstract:
A sunshade (10) incorporating a folding aid allows pliant sunshade material (16) to be expanded and collapsed. The folding aid includes stiffening means in the form of rods (12) joined by biasing means in the form of helical springs (14) which bias or urge the material (16) to an expanded form, but which allow ready manipulation of the material, and the sunshade (10), to a collapsed form. The rods (12) are contained within channels extending along edges of the material (16), substantially the length of the rods (12). The channels are formed by stitching a continuous closed pocket around the edge of the material (16).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a light-protection device for the windscreen of a vehicle, wherein said device comprises an embossed cloth comprising embossments which exhibit a sawtooth profile and have their generatrix perpendicular to the upper and lower edges of said cloth. The device further includes fixation members for attaching the cloth on the inner side of the windscreen, wherein said members are made in the form of suction cups provided with lugs on their back surface. The upper angles of the cloth include openings that co-operate with the hook-shaped lugs of the suction cups, while the lower edge of the cloth, when in use, is placed in the vicinity of the windscreen on the instrument panel so as to be brought into contact with the same. Information can further be applied on one at least of the cloth surfaces.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a temporary surface covering in particular for machines moving on sandy, muddy or marshy ground, such as one with a woven structure (1) formed of warp yarns and weft yarns and whereof the armour is such that each warp yarn is interwoven with the weft yarns along, preferably and more or less, half of the intersections of the armour rows and columns, the warp yarn being down in the remaining intersections, so as to obtain, for each warp yarn, at least a single and tight armour zone followed by a float zone. The invention is characterised in that a second auxiliary woven structure (2) is placed on top and comprises a lap of warp yarns and a lap of weft yarns, the link between the two woven structures (1, 2) being produced during a common simultaneous weaving process interlacing the structures, so as to form between the two structures, here and there, tubular pockets (3, 3') oriented along the warp yarns or along the weft yarns, said pockets being used as housing for receiving elements (4, 4') directly mounted for various purposes.
Abstract:
A high impact barrier (12, 24) for the exterior components of an automobile body (10) to enable lightweight automobiles to better withstand collisions and provide a protective enclosure of the passenger compartment, accomplished by bonding precut sheets of heavy gauge polyprene (12) onto the outer surfaces of the body panels (14, 16, 18). Clear sheets of polyprene (24, 32, 34) are also bonded to the interior and exterior windshield (26) and rear glass surfaces (28), and to the outer surfaces of bumpers (36) and headlight lenses (38).
Abstract:
A shell-type covering for protecting vehicles, machines or objects against floods or various splashes, is installed from the base upwards, and is characterised by a construction wherein a floor sheet (A) is sealingly connected with accordion-pleated walls (B) folded on the floor before use. In use, the covering forms a shell which can be covered by a closure sheet (E) sealingly attached to the top of the walls (B) so as to afford efficient protection against the above aggressions. The installation of the covering can be improved by means of a dismountable structure allowing the walls (B) to be erected with a single pulling action, wherein said walls (B) can be replaced by manually or automatically inflatable members connected to the floor sheet in the same way as the walls.
Abstract:
An apparatus for covering a car body (10) with a capability of automatically covering or uncovering the car body (10) is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a driving means (21; 62, 67), means (16, 17; 63, 68) operatively connected to the driving means for transferring a driving force generated from the driving means, a cabinet (11) disposed at center of the car body and having a receiving space (12) therein with an upper opening, a guide post (13; 60) fixedly provided within the cabinet (11), moving means (30, 34; 65, 70a, 70b) movably connected with the guide post (13; 60), and covering means (40) having a cover (50) and a plurality of knuckle bars (40a, 40b) and movably and pivotally connected to the moving means (30, 34; 65, 70a, 70b).
Abstract:
A cover system for an automobile includes a flexible cover (6), preferably of nylon, having leading, trailing and side edge portions (12, 16, 14) and of a suitable dimension to fit over the entire car body from the rear bumper to the front bumper and sides thereof. The flexible cover includes an elastic leader segment (10) attached at a first end (10') to the cover and spaced from the trailing edge (16) thereof. A second end (11) of the leader segment is attached to a rotatable spool (9) housed in a containment tube (8). The spool is rotated for storing in the cover by a motor, by a spring-biased shaft arrangement or by a manually turnable crank, or combinations thereof. The containment tube (8) may be pivotally mounted by straps (26) within the interior of the trunk for storage therein and is adapted to be pivotally swung outwardly from the trunk to an operable position at the rear of the trunk lid. After the cover is applied to the automobile, the containment tube is swung back to the trunk compartment for safe storage.
Abstract:
A protective cover (10) for a vehicle has a folding accordion-like structure of joined rectangular panels (12) which can be extended from a folded position stored within a trunk lid mounted container (17) longitudinally across the passenger compartment, including front windshield, of the vehicle. Coated wire cords (23) extend longitudinally at opposite sides of the structure and attach to alternating joined panel edges (14) to keep the structure from marring the vehicle and to limit the degree to which the structure is unfolded so air circulation between the vehicle and the structure is ensured. Extensions (22) of the cords beyond the front of the structure have knots (44), loops (45) and hooks (46) to secure the structure in its deployed position by closing the extensions in the front doors of the vehicle. The front panel (12a) is mated with the cover of the container and provided with tabs (33) and rotating closure elements (35) that cooperate with slots (34, 36) in laterally extending sides of the container. Sheet spring belts (46) attach in hinging manner to the longitudinally extending sides (30) of the container to permit the container to be pivoted from an in-trunk mounted storage position to a trunk top usable position. Other embodiments permit deployment from an in-trunk position.
