The present invention has the following structure as means for solving the above-mentioned problems. still,
The present invention is directed to an automobile covering sheet for covering an upper part of an automobile. The automobile covering sheet according to the first aspect of the present invention is a waterproof sheet having a predetermined area, and a plurality of thin plates divided into a predetermined area in front, rear, left and right on a back surface of a roof covering portion for covering an automobile roof. And a fixing means for fixing the covering sheet in a state where the covering sheet is covered on the roof of an automobile.

As a waterproof sheet, a sheet made of plastic (for example, made of polyester) is suitable, but a sheet obtained by subjecting a cloth material to waterproof treatment may be used. The waterproof sheet is a single flat sheet and has an area capable of covering at least almost the entire surface of the roof of the automobile (the roof at the upper part of the room).

[0006] The thin plate attached to the back of the waterproof sheet,
For example, it is formed in a rectangular shape with a suitable thin plate material (approximately 1 to 4 mm in thickness) such as a rubber plate, a corrugated cardboard plate, a plastic plate, a veneer plate, and a metal plate. In addition, this thin plate is used by arranging a plurality of thin plates in front, back, left and right on one waterproof sheet. For example, when two thin plates are used in front, back, left and right (total of 4 sheets), one side is 30 to A rectangular area of about 40 cm is suitable. Each thin plate is mounted on the back surface of the waterproof sheet with a slight space in front, rear, left and right (a space of about 3 to 5 cm required for bending).
As a means for attaching each of the thin plates, an adhesive is generally used, but may be sewn with a sewing thread. Further, each of the thin plates may be mounted in a bare state on the lower surface side of the waterproof sheet, or may be wrapped with the waterproof sheet and the backing cloth. When the thin plate is attached to the lower surface of the waterproof sheet in a bare state, the thin plate comes into direct contact with the upper surface of the automobile roof during use. Therefore, the thin plate is formed of a relatively soft material that does not damage the upper surface of the roof. Use things.

[0007] As a fixing means for fixing the covering sheet to the roof of an automobile, for example, an appropriate number (for example, two) of strings can be attached to the left and right side edges of the waterproof sheet. Then, each of the cords can fix the covering sheet by sandwiching the covering sheet between the upper side frames of the left and right doors of the vehicle and the side edges of the roof in a state where the covering sheet is placed on the roof of the car.

In the automobile covering sheet according to the first aspect of the present invention, when not in use, the waterproof sheet portion between the adjacent thin plates in front, rear, left and right is folded such that the thin plates are vertically overlapped.
In this case, since each thin plate has a shape-retaining property, the work of folding the covering sheet is simplified, and each thin plate portion is superimposed neatly. Therefore, the covering sheet can be folded into a small area slightly larger than one thin plate. In order to use this covering sheet, each thin plate is developed from the folded state, and is spread on the roof of the automobile such that the waterproof sheet is on the upper surface side. At this time, since the thin plate is attached to most of the area of the waterproof sheet, the waterproof sheet portion is stabilized (no flickering), and the covering sheet can be easily covered. When the covering sheet is fixed by the fixing means, the covering operation is completed. As described above, in the use state of the cover sheet, since each thin plate is covered with the waterproof sheet, even if each thin plate is exposed on the lower surface side of the waterproof sheet, the thin plate does not get wet with rainwater or the like. If a string (on each side of the waterproof sheet) is used as the fixing means,
With each door of the automobile open, each string is hung down from the side edge of the roof, and when each door is closed in this state, each string is placed between the side edge of the roof and the upper frame of the door. It is sandwiched and held.

In the use state of the covering sheet, it is possible to prevent the roof of the automobile from being heated by the solar heat, particularly during the daytime in summer, and to alleviate the rise in the temperature inside the automobile. The invention according to claim 2 of the present invention is the vehicle covering sheet according to claim 1, wherein the waterproof sheet covers a door glass covering portion covering left and right door glasses of the vehicle and a windshield of the vehicle. It is characterized in that a windshield coating portion and a rear glass coating portion for coating a rear glass of an automobile are respectively extended.

[0010] In the automobile covering sheet of the second aspect,
In addition to the function of the above claim 1, since the door sheet covering portion, the front glass covering portion, and the rear glass covering portion are respectively extended on the waterproof sheet, when the automobile covering sheet is put on the roof of the automobile, Door glass with each coating part,
The outer surfaces of the front glass and the rear glass can be respectively coated. Therefore, it is possible to prevent sunlight from irradiating the interior of the vehicle with each covering portion, and it is possible to prevent frost and snow from directly adhering to the window glass in winter. The invention according to claim 3 of the present invention is directed to the automobile covering sheet according to claim 2, wherein a plurality of front and rear glass covering portions of the waterproof sheet are divided into predetermined left and right areas by predetermined areas. It is characterized by attaching two thin plates.

Each of the thin plates attached to the front glass covering portion and the rear glass covering portion is divided into at least two parts at right and left, and is also divided into the thin sheets of the roof covering portion. Each thin plate of the front glass covering portion and the rear glass covering portion can be folded together with the thin plate of the roof covering portion.
