Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
The automobile curtain device 1 according to the embodiment corresponds to the rear window 2 of the automobile. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the curtain frame 3 having a ring shape in front view and the curtain frame 3 The curtain member 4 attached is generally configured.

  The curtain frame 3 has a shape that can be substantially fitted into an inner peripheral step 5 (see FIG. 5) that originally exists on the inner side of the rear window 2 of the automobile, and at least the distance between the upper side 3a and the lower side 3b is the rear window. 2 is formed in a ring shape that is slightly larger than the vertical width of the inner peripheral step portion 5.

  The curtain frame 3 is formed by bending a wire made of, for example, metal or synthetic resin, which has elasticity appropriately with respect to a bending load, into a shape slightly larger than the inner contour of the rear window 2 of the automobile, and both ends thereof are shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 5, the cylindrical joint member 6 is inserted into and connected to both ends, and is thus formed into a continuous ring shape. Accordingly, at least the distance between the upper side 3a and the lower side 3b is made small (narrow) so that an appropriate restoring elasticity acts on the displacement in the direction of crushing the ring. Although the curtain frame 3 is formed of a wire having a circular cross section in the embodiment, the curtain frame 3 may be a single wire or a plurality of overlapping plate spring materials, which are stronger in that case. Restoring elasticity can be obtained.

  The curtain frame 3 is provided with, for example, three elastic members 3d, 3d, and 3d that are elastically deformed and fitted into at least the upper side 3a at an appropriate interval. The elastic members 3d, 3d, 3d are made of, for example, urethane, and in the embodiment, are formed in a short cylinder shape as shown in the enlarged view of FIG. 5, but preferably the entire circumference of the outer peripheral surface of the short cylinder or It is preferable to form a groove on a part of the peripheral surface to form a spline shaft. By doing so, since the frictional resistance of the elastic members 3d, 3d, 3d increases, the difficulty of coming off (supporting force of the curtain frame 3) in the state of being fitted to the inner peripheral step portion 5 is improved.

  The curtain member 4 is formed of two curtain constituent half members 40 and 40 attached to the curtain frame 3 as shown in FIG. Each of the curtain constituent half members 40, 40 has a shape obtained by dividing the curtain frame 3 into two substantially right and left, and is appropriate between the opposing edges of the curtain constituent half members 40, 40 when attached to the curtain frame 3. The size is set so that a wide gap 7 is formed.

  The curtain member 4 is made of lace fabric, and a cylindrical frame through 4d is formed in series on the upper side 4a, the lower side 4b, and the vertical side 4c corresponding to the vertical sides 3c on both sides of the curtain frame 3. The curtain frame 3 passes through the through 4d. Therefore, the edges other than the mutually opposing edges of the curtain constituent half members 40, that is, the upper side 4a, the lower side 4b, and the vertical side 4c are attached to the upper side 3a, the lower side 3b, and the vertical side 3c of the curtain frame 3, respectively. .

  In order to pass the curtain frame 3 through the frame thread 4d, as shown in FIG. 4 (b), one of the joint members 6 is removed and a part of the ring is opened, and the curtain constituting half member is opened in the opened part. The frame frame 4d of 40 and 40 is put in, the curtain frame 3 is passed therethrough, and then the joint member 6 is connected as shown in FIG.

  In addition, in FIG. 5, reference numeral 8 denotes a rear seat of the automobile, and reference numeral 9 denotes a substantially horizontal rear base (rear parcel shelf) provided immediately below the rear window 2 and the rear seat 8.

Since the automotive curtain device 1 of the present invention is configured as described above, the distance between the upper side 3a and the lower side 3b of the curtain frame 3 is set above and below the inner peripheral step portion 5 that originally exists on the inner inner periphery of the rear window 2. When the hand is forcedly deformed to be smaller than the width and fitted into the inner peripheral step portion 5 and released in that state, it is locked in the inner peripheral step portion 5 by being restored by the restoring elasticity of the curtain frame 3.
In this state, if the tension force of the curtain frame 3 is weak and the mounting strength is insufficient (the interval between the upper side 3a and the lower side 3b of the curtain frame 3 is the same as the vertical width of the inner peripheral step portion 5 of the rear window 2). If the amount of deformation is small, it is conceivable that if the elastic member 3d is pushed into the recess of the inner peripheral step portion 5 and is elastically deformed as shown in the enlarged view of FIG. Good.

  When the automobile curtain device 1 according to the present invention is mounted on the rear window 2 in this manner, the curtain member 4 keeps the privacy in the vehicle and suppresses the entry and exit of heat to some extent, thereby exhibiting an energy saving effect. The gap 7 between the curtain constituent half members 40, 40 can be adjusted to some extent by sliding the curtain constituent half members 40 in the lateral direction along the curtain frame 3. In addition, when the curtain constituent half members 40, 40 are moved toward the center to reduce the gap 7, the vertical sides 4c of the curtain constituent half members 40, 40 are attached to the vertical sides 3c of the curtain frame 3 and do not move. An unsightly gap does not occur at the end of the curtain member 4.

  On the other hand, when the automobile curtain device 1 becomes unnecessary or needs to be washed, the inner peripheral step 5 of the rear window 2 can be simply deformed by holding down the upper side 3a of the curtain frame 3 and pressing it downward. It can be removed easily without leaving a mark. At this time, when the elastic member 3d is fitted to the inner peripheral step portion 5, it can be removed by an operation of pushing down the curtain frame 3 to deform it.

  Next, when the curtain member 4 is washed, the joint member 6 of the curtain frame 3 of the automotive curtain device 1 removed from the rear window 2 is removed as shown in FIG. The curtain constituent half members 40, 40 are removed from the laundry and washed, and then the curtain member 4 is returned to the curtain frame 3. Then, the automotive curtain device 1 is mounted on the rear window 2 in the above manner.
