OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to a garage cover-car, whose obvious purpose is to prevent a car parked for a long period of time from becoming substantially dirty due to the accumulation of dust and dirt.

The object of the invention is to achieve a simple means of protection for the car, both from the point of view of dirt and small bumps or scratches.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

As is known, there is a large concentration of dust in garages, so a car that is parked for a long period of time is often covered with dust, to the point of not being able to see through its windshields , in addition to not being protected against small knocks of doors, scratches and similar incidents common in this type of garages.

Trying to obviate this problem are known covers for vehicles, which although they satisfactorily fulfill the function for which they have been planned, the reality is that the process of implantation and collection of the cover is extremely complex and tedious, especially when it is a large vehicle

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The car cover that is recommended solves in a fully satisfactory way the problem described above, based on a simple but effective solution.

For this, the car cover of the invention is intended to cover a car

protecting it from dust and scratches, with the particularity that it includes folding and unfolding means that make said maneuver extremely fast and simple.

More specifically, the car cover that is recommended has the particularity of being constituted from a frame fixed on the roof, and from which a curtain with four wings is suspended so that in its descent position they completely cover the car, and in position of ascent the car is free to be able to access and exit comfortably from said square, the curtain being folded and unfolded through a series of cables or ropes through a pulley system associated with a drive element, either manual or motorized, so that the collection of said cables or ropes entails the simultaneous collection of the four curtains, by way of blinds, which are wound on the corresponding drum, leaving the car free, or cover it completely when they are released / unscrewed.

The pulleys are mounted on the upper part of the frame, and the curtains or curtain (if necessary with four wings), in their deployment arrangement will define a volume of protection against dirt and possible bumps or scratches, with the particularity that Said frame can be complemented by vertical struts that will coincide with the corners of the parking space, through which the curtain wings are guided.

These struts could in turn replace the hanging means from the frame to the ceiling, said installation not being strictly necessary.

If the car seat is next to a wall, or two angled walls, the frame will have three or two sides respectively, and the curtain three or two wings.

Similarly, if the square is embedded between three walls, the frame would only have one side, and the curtain will have only one wing, although in all cases the collection and descent of the aforementioned wings of the curtain would also be carried through pulleys and cables / ropes associated with the general frame.

In this way, a structurally simple car cover is obtained, easy to handle in the folding and unfolding of the same, and that does not hinder when it is folded, not

its collection or storage being necessary.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that will then be made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical implementation thereof, a set of drawings is attached as an integral part of said description. where, for illustrative and non-limiting purposes, the following has been represented:

Figure 1 shows a top perspective view of a car cover made in accordance with the object of the present invention, establishing a kind of prismatic receptacle in which the car itself is located, and where they are clearly visible. pulleys and ropes folding and unfolding the curtain that protects the car.

Figure 2.- Shows a perspective view of a frame with the curtain folded in its entirety, and under it a car located on the corresponding parking space.

Figure 3.- Shows a perspective view of a car in an intermediate phase of covering with the curtain that participates in the device of the invention.

Figure 4.- Shows a perspective view of the rectangular prismatic receptacle that constitutes the curtain, covering and hiding the car represented in the previous figure.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the figures outlined, it can be seen how the car cover for the garage object of the invention is constituted from a frame (1), fixed on the roof of the garage itself in correspondence with the perimeter in plan of the square of parking (2) for a car (3).

A curtain (4) capable of folding and unfolding is fixed on said frame, in the first case to be placed superimposed inferiorly to the frame (1), and in the second case to unfold and reach the ground in correspondence with the limits of the square of parking (2) of the car (3), in order to cover it and protect it from chafing and dirt, with the special feature that the folding and unfolding of the curtain (4) is done by ropes or cables (5) that they are connected to the lower edge of said curtain (4) and that run on pulleys (6) provided in the frame itself (1), and which are operated through an external box (8), through which the cable / The rope goes outwards for manual operation, or in which a motorized remote control system is included.

Figure 1 shows the curtain (4) deployed superiorly, protecting the car (3) perimeter, while in figure 2 it shows the curtain (4) folded up, exposing said car so that it can exit or access said parking space (2).

The curtain is finished at the bottom by means of a hem in a tube (7) internal to said skirt, as an element in weight functions, which ensures a correct elevation and descent of the wings, in addition to preventing them from wrinkling.

The frame (1) is complemented with vertical struts (1 ') in which guides are defined for folding and unfolding the curtain itself (4), with the particularity that in the case of the parking space (2) is located next to one or more walls, then the curtain (4) will have fewer wings, since the wall itself would act as a wing, the same happening to the frame itself (1).

In short, it is a car cover consisting of a curtain that folds and unfolds on lateral guides established for this purpose in respective vertical struts, folding and unfolding carried out by pulling the ropes or cables that are linked to said curtain through pulleys, either manually, or through a motorized system, without affecting the essence of the invention.
