JPS58118419A - Spoiler type sun-roof - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To minimize curtailment in room space as well as to secure such a sun roof as being excellent in rigidity and vibro-resistance with a lightweight, inexpensive construction, by causing the rear end of a cover body movably covering the opening part of a car roof to be retractably projected upward to the roof at will. CONSTITUTION:An opening part 3 made up on a roof of a car body is movably covered with a cover body 4, composing a sun roof. At this time, a frame 5 is installed inside the opening part 3 and a concave is formed up there while a window hole 6 interconnecting the interior of a room with the open air through is set up in this frame 5, and guide rails 7 are as well laid down at both sides of the frame. In addition, a supporting member 9 is installed in front of the cover body 4 which is fitted in the guide rails 7 to be free of longitudinal motion. And, the supporting member 9 is made up of a rotary supporting body 10 and a lifting body 11, and the rear part of the cover body 4 is rotatably supported by the rotary supporting body 10 while the lifting body 11 is so constituted that its slider 13 retracts on the guide rail 7 whereby a cam block 12 is to go up by means of cam action.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention relates to a spoiler type sunroof.

As is well known, sunroofs installed on vehicle roofs include removable sunroofs that have an integrated cover that can be opened and closed to open and close the roof opening, slide-type sunroofs that slide the integrated cover backwards, and sunroofs that are removable. There are tilt-type models that allow the rear part to be rotated upwards.Removable-type models require the cover to be removed each time the cover is opened, making handling operations cumbersome.

There are two types of sliding types: one in which the cover slides on the underside of the roof, and one in which the cover slides on the top of the roof.In the case of sliding on the bottom of the roof, a large frame must be installed on the bottom of the roof to accommodate the cover. However, the disadvantages were that the vehicle was heavy, expensive, and the space inside the vehicle was extremely small.

In addition, in the case of sliding RJ7J on the roof, the guide rail is provided in an exposed manner on the top surface of the roof.
It was unsightly, and the rear part of the cover protruded from the rear part of the roof when fully opened, which was not desirable in terms of appearance.

The tilt type has a simple structure, but the opening cannot be opened completely.

Therefore, the present invention eliminates each of the above-mentioned conventional drawbacks, minimizes the sacrifice of interior space, has a structure that is as light and inexpensive as possible, does not make the appearance bad, and has a structure that does not cause instability in terms of rigidity and can withstand vibrations. The goal is to provide a spoiler-type sunroof that is durable. Therefore, the key point is to raise and lower the left and right image side front ends of the cover so that the rear end of the cover that can open and close the opening of the vehicle roof can freely protrude above the roof. The support member is rotatably and fixedly supported, and the supporting member is provided so as to be horizontally movable in the front and back direction on guide members that extend in the front and rear directions on both left and right sides of the opening.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings.

In Fig. 1, (1) is a passenger car, (2) is a vehicle roof, and an opening (3) is provided in the roof (2), and this opening (3) can be opened and closed with a cover (4). It can be closed freely,
A sunroof is configured.

As shown in Figure 2, there is a frame (
6) is provided, and the frame (6) allows the roof opening (
3) A recess is formed within. A window hole (6) is opened in this frame (6) to communicate the room and the outside. Guide rails (7) are laid on both left and right sides of the frame (6) inside the opening (3).

The frame (6) may be integrated with the roof (2) as shown in Figure 3 (1), or may be separate from the roof (2) as shown in Figure 3 (1). 2) may be welded to the bolt (8), as shown in Figure 3 (3).
) It may be tightened.

As shown in the 4th @, the roof opening (3) has an integrated cover (4
) is fitted inside. A support member (9) is provided at the front of the integral cover (4), and the support member (9) is fitted to the guide rail (7) so as to be horizontally movable in the front and rear direction. This horizontal movement is performed by a drive device (not shown).

The support member (9) consists of a rotating support +101 at the front and a lifting body (11) provided at the rear thereof. The rotation support body utm supports the rear part of the cover unit (4) so that it can freely rotate upward. The lifting body (11) has an integrated cover (
4) Cam block H provided on the lower surface and the block 0
The cam block 02 is made up of a slider (1 m long) that is slidably fitted into the cam block 02, and when the slider moves backward on the guide rail (7), the cam block 02 moves upward by the cam action. .

FIG. 4 (1) shows a state in which the opening (3) is covered by an integral cover (4), and the integral cover (4) and the roof (ri) are in the same plane.

As shown in Fig. 4 (2), by moving the slider (I field backward and lifting the cam block O), the cover unit (4) is rotated upwardly around the pivot support. The fitting with the opening (3) is released.

As shown in FIG. 3 (3), by moving the slider o:1 further backward, the cam block θ moves backward together with the slider 01, so that the cover unit (4) is placed in an inclined position. It will hold and move backwards. As a result, the window hole (6) of the frame (6) opens and the sunroof is fully opened.

Figure 4 (4) shows a conventional sliding sunroof, where the distance n from the rear end of the roof to the rear end of the cover is required by the seven-lung length of the roof structural materials and frame, so the window hole length l
is subject to restrictions. Furthermore, the frame will protrude significantly into the room. In contrast, in the embodiment of the present invention, if the length of the window hole (6) is set to l, which is the same as that of the conventional one, and the supporting member (9) is provided within the range of length m, the frame (ltl is l
! 10m) is sufficient, and the cover (4) is sufficient for the roof (2).
) does not protrude from the rear end 0 As detailed above, according to the present invention, the integral cover does not protrude from the roof when fully closed, which is preferable for appearance, and the integral cover has its front S supported by a support member. Therefore, even if the guide member is installed inside the opening, it can be opened and closed sufficiently, and the frame that protrudes toward the indoor side can be made small, making it possible to use a large amount of indoor space and save a lot of money in practical use. It is effective.
