PARASOL PERFECCIONADO PARA VEHÍCULOS PERFECTED PARASOL FOR VEHICLES
DescripciónDescription
El Modelo de Utilidad a que se refiere la presente memoria tiene por objeto un nuevo tipo de PARASOL PERFECCIONADO PARA VEHÍCULOS, cuyas características técnicas implican un importante avance y mejora respecto de los artículos similares ya existentes.,The Utility Model referred to in this report is aimed at a new type of PERFECTED PARASOL FOR VEHICLES, whose technical characteristics imply an important advance and improvement with respect to similar items already in existence.
El Nuevo Parasol de referencia ha sido técnicamente estudiado y desarrollado con la intención de mejorar el problema persistente en vehículos automóviles, referente a los parasoles o viseras actualmente existentes en el mercado, que si bien mitigan en parte el deslumbramiento producido por los rayos solares en las horas crepusculares, no son todo lo eficaces que serían de desear.The New Parasol of reference has been technically studied and developed with the intention of improving the persistent problem in motor vehicles, referring to the parasols or visors currently existing in the market, which although partially mitigate the glare produced by the sun's rays in the Twilight hours are not as effective as they would wish.
Uno de los mayores inconvenientes que estos parasoles presentan es su colocación en el vehículo y su sistema de utilización por movimiento bascular, ya que son interceptados en su trayectoria por el espejo retrovisor, quedando en el cristal parabrisas un espacio por cubrir, por lo que según el ángulo de rayo solar que incida en el vehículo, el conductor se sentirá molesto por la incidencia óptica de la percepción de los diferentes rayos solares que dificultan la visión, representando un elevado riesgo la circunstancia de conducir muchos kilómetros en estas condiciones; ya que en ocasiones las zonas de riesgo inminentemente inmediatas son muy mal controladas ópticamente por los conductores; amen de las alteraciones psicológicas (nerviosismo, tensión , fatiga, etc.), clínicamente contrastadas que presuponen el ejercicio de cualquier actividad en condiciones, sino adversas, cuando menos dificultosas e incómodas.One of the biggest drawbacks that these parasols have is their placement in the vehicle and their use system by tilting movement, since they are intercepted in their trajectory by the rearview mirror, leaving a space to be covered on the windshield glass, so according to the angle of solar ray that affects the vehicle, the driver will feel annoyed by the optical incidence of the perception of the different solar rays that make vision difficult, representing a high risk the circumstance of driving many kilometers in these conditions; since sometimes imminently immediate risk zones are very poorly controlled optically by drivers; Amen of the psychological alterations (nervousness, tension, fatigue, etc.), clinically contrasted that presuppose the exercise of any activity in conditions, but adverse, when less difficult and uncomfortable.
De ello se infiere que las viseras o parasoles existentes, al parecer, sólo cumplen con los requisitos mínimos exigidos por nuestro Código de la Circulación, pues los constructores no han evolucionado en dicho dispositivo. Es necesario, por tanto, desarrollar un nuevo parasol perfectamente adaptable a las condiciones físicas de cualquier conductor, hecho que debe conseguirse a partir de una regulación total de su posición en el vehículo, adecuándose a la estatura de cualquier conductor, circunstancia ésta que no se consigue con las viseras o parasoles con que, actualmente, vienen equipados los vehículos automóviles, que por sus características de basculación y opacidad, bien no ofrecen protección a la percepción óptica de los rayos solares, sobre todo desde el amanecer hasta media mañana y desde el atardecer hasta el crepúsculo, bien deben posiciones en inclinación tal que, de ofrecer la protección para que han sido diseñado, reducen sensiblemente la distancia de visibilidad del conductor.It follows that existing visors or parasols, apparently, only meet the minimum requirements required by our Traffic Code, as the builders have not evolved in said device. It is necessary, therefore, to develop a new sunshade perfectly adaptable to the physical conditions of any driver, a fact that must be achieved from a total regulation of their position in the vehicle, adapting to the height of any driver, a circumstance that is not achieved with the visors or parasols with which, currently, are equipped with motor vehicles, which due to their characteristics of tilting and opacity, do not offer protection to the optical perception of solar rays, especially from sunrise to mid-morning and from the dusk until dusk, they should well tilt positions such that, if they offer protection for which they have been designed, they significantly reduce the visibility distance of the driver.
El nuevo Parasol perfeccionado para vehículos que se presenta en esta memoria permite resolver todos estos problemas, aportando sensibles mejoras sobre lo conocido en cuanto a viseras o parasoles, cuyas nuevas características de sencillez en su diseño, facilidad de colocación y precisión en la forma de incidir en el cristal parabrisas, permiten la obtención de un nuevo objeto auxiliar de gran utilidad para ser empleado como parasol para coche, que cumple a la perfección la misión para la que específicamente ha sido concebido, con una seguridad y eficacia máximas, en aras a conseguir una conducción confortable garantizando en mayor grado de visibilidad aun en condiciones adversas y al no ocultar nada de la superficie del parabrisas, éste queda libre para poder ver constantemente los semáforos y las señales verticales, que con el anterior quedan ocultos.The new Parasol perfected for vehicles presented in this report allows to solve all these problems, providing significant improvements on what is known in terms of visors or parasols, whose new features of simplicity in its design, ease of placement and precision in the way of affecting in the windshield glass, they allow obtaining a new auxiliary object of great use to be used as a car sunshade, which perfectly fulfills the mission for which it has been specifically designed, with maximum safety and efficiency, in order to achieve a comfortable driving guaranteeing a greater degree of visibility even in adverse conditions and not hiding anything from the surface of the windshield, it is free to be able to constantly see the traffic lights and vertical signals, which with the former are hidden.
La innovación preconizada consiste en un bastidor en forma de abrazadera auto pinzante, con guía laminar transparente deslizable, de modo que el susodicho bastidor se abrocharía o sujetaría por los medios precisos al techo o tejadillo del vehículo en cuestión, o bien entre el tapizado y la plancha del techo, ya que el grosor del conjunto lo permite, quedando a la vista del conductor y ocupante el dispositivo de corredera y fijación de la visera, consistente en una lámina, preferentemente de acetato de celulosa azul ya que permite reducir sensiblemente la incidencia de los rayos del sol sobre los ojos del conductor en las horas crepusculares. La bondad del susodicho material se acredita mediante Certificación de Pruebas Espectro-Radiométricas expedida por el Catedrático de Universidad de Barcelona Profesor D. Jerónimo Lorente Castelló que, junto con Análisis de la Transmisividad de Diversos Materiales a la Radiación Solar Ultravioleta, entre otros del mismo autor, se acompañan a esta memoria. De esta forma se conseguirá una mayor seguridad en las horas en que estadísticamente la conducción es más peligrosa, quedando más disminuida la zona de riesgo ópticamente mayor para el conductor, reduciendo el número de accidentes al conducir más descansado y con mayor comodidad.The recommended innovation consists of a frame in the form of a self-clamping clamp, with transparent sliding laminar guide, so that the aforementioned frame would be fastened or fastened by the precise means to the roof or roof of the vehicle in question, or between the upholstery and the ceiling plate, since the thickness of the assembly allows it, leaving the visor sliding and fixing device in sight of the driver and occupant, consisting of a sheet, preferably of blue cellulose acetate since it allows to significantly reduce the incidence of the sun's rays over the driver's eyes in the twilight hours. The goodness of the aforementioned material is accredited by Certification of Spectrum-Radiometric Tests issued by the Professor from the University of Barcelona Professor D. Jerónimo Lorente Castelló that, together with the Analysis of the Transmissivity of Various Materials to Ultraviolet Solar Radiation, among others by the same author, are accompanied by this report. In this way, greater safety will be achieved in the hours in which the driving is statistically more dangerous, the area of optically greater risk for the driver being reduced, reducing the number of accidents when driving more rested and with greater comfort.
El uso de este parasol perfeccionado es muy sencillo. El bastidor es solidario a los medios precisos que permiten su sujeción al techo del vehículo o bien al parasol ya existente en el mismo vehículo. Este bastidor incorpora en ambos laterales un sistema de guías en las cuales se desliza una prolongación laminar rígida, dotada de un saliente o tope en su parte superior y solidaria con una prolongación transversal en su parte inferior, de modo que esta prolongación transversal funciona a su vez como tope inferior . Esta pieza laminar está insertada en el parasol propiamente dicho, actuando como nexo de unión entre el bastidor y el parasol, y funcionando de hecho como corredera entre ambos, permitiendo el recorrido en sentido ascendente y descendente del parasol con el objeto de adecuarse al físico de cada conductor.The use of this improved lens hood is very simple. The frame is integral to the precise means that allow it to be attached to the roof of the vehicle or to the sunshade already existing in the same vehicle. This frame incorporates on both sides a system of guides in which a rigid laminar extension slides, provided with a projection or stop in its upper part and integral with a transverse extension in its lower part, so that this transverse extension works at its Once as a bottom stop. This sheet piece is inserted in the sun visor itself, acting as a link between the frame and the sun visor, and in fact functioning as a slide between them, allowing the upward and downward travel of the sunshade in order to adapt to the physical of each driver
Dado que el objeto de esta invención es permitir que el parasol se adecué a la altura del conductor, puede substituirse la lámina rígida corredera por una estructura tubular flexible y móvil que permita variar el posicionamiento del susodicho parasol.Since the object of this invention is to allow the lens hood to adapt to the driver's height, the rigid sliding sheet can be replaced by a flexible and mobile tubular structure that allows the positioning of the aforementioned lens hood to be varied.
Para facilitar una mayor comprensión del objeto de esta innovación, se adjunta a la memoria descriptiva una lámina de dibujos, únicamente a título de ejemplo y en ningún caso con carácter limitativo o restrictivo.To facilitate a better understanding of the purpose of this innovation, a sheet of drawings is attached to the descriptive report, by way of example only and in no case limited or restrictive.
Figura 1.- Vista del parasol perfeccionado en posición de reposo Figura 2.- Vista del parasol perfeccionado en posición extendida Figura 3.- Corte lateral del parasol perfeccionado Tal como se detalla en las figuras 1, 2 y 3 este parasol perfeccionado está configurado a partir de un bastidor (1) o soporte que incorpora los medios precisos (7) para sujetarse o adaptarse al techo o parasol ya existente del vehículo, en este caso presenta una prolongación curvada con este fin, presentado dicho bastidor (1) unas guías laterales (6), en las que se desliza una lámina rígida y transparente (2) , que actúa como nexo de unión entre el bastidor(l) y el parasol (3) propiamente dicho. Esta lámina (2) rígida incorpora en un extremo una prolongación transversal(4) y en el otro una protuberancia (5), las cuales actúan a modo de topes, bloqueando el movimiento de la lámina (2) entre el bastidor (1) y la visera-parasol (3). El extremo de la lamina (2) dotada de la protuberancia(5) se engarza en las guías (6) del bastidor (1) mientras que el extremo opuesto es solidario con la pieza a modo de visera o parasol (3). El recorrido de la pieza laminar rígida (2) queda limitado por los topes antedichos (4) y (5), de modo que el posicionamiento de la visera (3) puede variar en altura en función de las condiciones físicas del conductor. El recorrido del parasol (3) o visera queda limitado por el propio parabrisas o cristal delantero del vehículo, ya que la visera (3) no basculante se desliza por el susodicho parabrisas que actúa como freno.Figure 1.- View of the improved sun visor in rest position Figure 2.- View of the perfected sun visor in extended position Figure 3.- Side section of the perfected sun visor As detailed in Figures 1, 2 and 3, this improved sun visor is configured from a frame (1) or support that incorporates the precise means (7) to hold or adapt to the existing roof or sunshade of the vehicle, in this This case presents a curved extension for this purpose, said frame (1) presenting lateral guides (6), in which a rigid and transparent sheet (2) slides, which acts as a link between the frame (l) and the sun visor (3) proper. This rigid sheet (2) incorporates at one end a transverse extension (4) and at the other a protuberance (5), which act as a stop, blocking the movement of the sheet (2) between the frame (1) and the sun visor (3). The end of the sheet (2) provided with the protuberance (5) is engaged in the guides (6) of the frame (1) while the opposite end is integral with the piece as a visor or sun visor (3). The path of the rigid sheet piece (2) is limited by the above stops (4) and (5), so that the positioning of the visor (3) can vary in height depending on the physical conditions of the driver. The path of the sun visor (3) or visor is limited by the windshield itself or front glass of the vehicle, since the non-tilting visor (3) slides along the above windshield that acts as a brake.
El movimiento de la visera (3) será accionado manualmente, pero este parasol perfeccionado puede incorporar asimismo un motorreductor que permita accionar el movimiento del parasol y graduar su recorrido.The movement of the visor (3) will be activated manually, but this improved sunshade can also incorporate a gearmotor that allows the sunshade movement to be activated and its path adjusted.
Igualmente, cabe señalar que el sistema laminar (2) descrito puede ser substituido por una estructura tubular rígida pero moldeable que permita mover y situar la visera en una posición u otra.Likewise, it should be noted that the laminar system (2) described can be replaced by a rigid but moldable tubular structure that allows the visor to be moved and placed in one position or another.
Son variables las circunstancias de tamaño, forma y material particularmente referidas a cada uno de los elementos que integran el conjunto, en el que podrá ser variado todo aquello que no suponga una alteración de la esencialidad del objeto expuesto en la pasada descripción, la cual deberá de ser considerada en su más amplio sentido y no como una limitación de posibilidades de realización, no afectando en absoluto al espíritu de las reivindicaciones.
