Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Niederschlagswasserspeichersystem für ein öffnungsfähiges Fahrzeugdach entsprechend dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The The present invention relates to a rainwater storage system for an openable vehicle roof according to the preamble of claim 1.
Niederschlagswasser, dass sich auf öffnungsfähigen Kfz-Fahrzeugdächern sammelt, wird normalerweise z.B. über die A- und/oder C-Säule und dann über den Radkasten ins Freie abgeleitet. Es ist bekannt dazu einen Wasserablauf an einem Rahmen eines Schiebedachs anzuordnen. Derartige Rahmen von Schiebedächern sind z.B. als Blechpressteil ausgebildet. Wasserführungskanäle am Rahmen dienen der Ableitung von Niederschlagswasser insbesondere Regenwasser. Eine oder mehrere der Wasserableitung dienende Ablaufeinrichtungen, z.B. Rohre oder Schläuche sind an geeigneter Stelle dicht mit dem Rahmen verbunden. Durch die Ablaufeinrichtungen wird das Wasser ins Freie geführt. Dabei sind die Ablaufeinrichtungen in den A-Säulen, den B-Säulen, den C-Säulen oder den D-Säulen des Fahrzeugs verlegt.Rainwater, that collects on openable vehicle roofs, is normally used e.g. above the A and / or C-pillar and then over Derived the wheel arch to the outside. It is known to have a water drain to arrange on a frame of a sunroof. Such framework of sunroofs are e.g. designed as a sheet metal stamping. Water ducts on the frame serve the drainage of rainwater in particular rainwater. One or more drainage devices serving to drain water, e.g. Pipes or hoses are tightly connected to the frame at a suitable location. By the drainage facilities will lead the water to the outside. there are the drainage devices in the A-pillars, the B-pillars, the C-pillars or the D-pillars of the vehicle.
Ferner ist bekannt, dass Kraftfahrzeuge üblicherweise mit einer Scheibenwaschanlage versehen sind. Kfz-Wischwasserbehälter des Standes der Technik werden mit Wasser und Reinigungsmittel oder Frostschutzmittel befüllt. Das Nachfüllen des Wassers wird in zeitlichen Abständen abhängig vom Verbrauch manuell durchgeführt.Further It is known that motor vehicles usually with a windscreen washer are provided. Automotive Wischwasserbehälter of the prior art are filled with water and detergent or antifreeze. The refill The water will be manually at intervals depending on the consumption carried out.

Die dargestellten Systeme der Wasserführung in den Wischwassertank haben den Nachteil, dass keine Einspeisung des Niederschlagswassers von einem öffnungsfähigen Fahrzeugdach berücksichtigt wird. Dieser nicht unerhebliche Teil des Niederschlagswassers bleibt somit ungenutzt.The illustrated systems of water flow in the water tank have the disadvantage that no supply of rainwater from an openable vehicle roof considered becomes. This not insignificant part of the rainwater remains thus unused.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, ein Niederschlagswasserspeichersystem für ein öffnungsfähiges Fahrzeugdach zu schaffen, dass die Nachteile des Standes der Technik verringert. Insbesondere ist es Aufgabe der Erfindung, ein Niederschlagswasserspeichersystem für ein öffnungsfähiges Fahrzeugdach zu schaffen, das die Ableitung von Niederschlagswasser von einem öffnungsfähigen Fahrzeugdach und die Zuführung des Niederschlagswassers in einen Kfz-Wischwasserbehälter ermöglicht. Eine Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es ferner, dazu beizutragen, dass der Wischwasserbehälter seltener befüllt werden muss. Ferner soll die Erfindung dazu beitragen, dass im Wischwasserbehälter sauberes, im Wesentlichen kalkfreies Wasser kostengünstig bereitgestellt wird. Zudem soll ein Rest füllvolumen im Wischwasserbehälter zum Einfüllen von Reinigungsmittel und/oder Frostschutzmittel erhalten bleiben.task Therefore, the present invention is a rainwater storage system for an openable vehicle roof to create that reduces the disadvantages of the prior art. In particular, it is the object of the invention to provide a rainwater storage system for an openable vehicle roof to create that the drainage of rainwater from an openable vehicle roof and the feeder the rain water in a car wash tank allows. An object of the invention is further to contribute to the mop water tank rare filled must become. Furthermore, the invention is intended to contribute to the fact that in the mop water container clean, essentially lime-free water is provided inexpensively. In addition, a residual filling volume in the mop water tank to fill in Detergents and / or antifreeze are retained.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch ein Niederschlagswasserspeichersystem für ein öffnungsfähiges Fahrzeugdach nach den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen angegeben.These Task is by a rain water storage system for an openable vehicle roof solved according to the features of claim 1. Further advantageous embodiments are in the dependent claims specified.
Insbesondere wird die Aufgabe gelöst durch ein Niederschlagswasserspeichersystem für ein öffnungsfähiges Fahrzeugdach mit einer Ablaufeinrichtung, einem Filter und einer Wasserauffangvorrichtung zum Auffangen von Niederschlagswasser, wobei das Niederschlagswasser vom öffnungsfähigen Fahrzeugdach über die Ablaufeinrichtung durch den Filter wenigstens teilweise dem Wasserauffangbehälter zugeführt wird.Especially the task is solved by a rainwater storage system for an openable vehicle roof with a Drainage device, a filter and a water collecting device for catching rainwater, the rainfall from the openable vehicle roof over the Drain device through the filter is at least partially supplied to the water collecting container.
Das Niederschlagswasser wird von dem öffnungsfähigen Fahrzeugdach über einen Filter dem Wasserauffangbehälter zugeführt. Das so aufbereitete und gesammelte Wasser kann dann weiterverwendet werden.The Rainwater is from the openable vehicle roof over a Filter the water collector fed. The treated and collected water can then continue to be used become.
Ist der Wasserauffangbehälter gleichzeitig der Wischwasserbehälter, kann das Wasser zur Reinigung bevorzugt der Fahrzeugscheiben oder auch der Scheinwerfer verwendet werden. Durch das Auffüllen des Wischwasserbehälters mit gefiltertem Niederschlagswasser muss der Wischwasserbehälter seltener manuell befüllt werden. Ferner hat das Niederschlagswasser den Vorteil, dass es nur in sehr geringem Maße Kalk enthält, der der Scheibenwischanlage zusetzt und zu Kalkablagerungen auf den Scheiben führt. Gegenüber der Verwendung von destilliertem Wasser ergibt sich ein Kostenvorteil.is the water collector simultaneously the mop water container, The water may be preferred for cleaning the vehicle windows or for cleaning also the headlight can be used. By filling up the Washer fluid container with filtered rainwater the mop water tank must be rare filled manually become. Furthermore, the rainwater has the advantage that it only to a very small extent Contains lime, the added to the windscreen wiper system and limescale on leads the discs. Across from the use of distilled water results in a cost advantage.
Im Folgenden sollen weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung anhand der Figur erläutert werden. Hierbei zeigt:in the Following are further advantageous embodiments of the invention explained with reference to the figure become. Hereby shows:
