BARRIER APPARATUS

摘要

A barrier apparatus partially covers a window in a vehicle. A panel extends and retracts at a parallel spacing to the window. The panel provides shade against light passing through the window. The panel retracts and extends to the shape and width of the window. The panel can be rolled and stored in a storage portion above the window frames, within a ceiling region of the vehicle. The panel includes a first end that joins with the storage portion. A slit in the ceiling enables at least partial passage of the panel during retraction and extension. A second end of the panel is tapered to restrict passage through the slit. A telescoping rod joins the panel with a track that aligns with the window edges. The length of the telescoping rod adjusts relative to the width of the window so the panel contours the window edges.

主权项

1. An apparatus comprising:
a panel configured to at least partially form a barrier, said panel comprising a first end, said panel further comprising a second end, said second end comprising a tapered portion, said panel further comprising a pair of lateral ends; a storage portion disposed to join with said first end of said panel, said storage portion configured to extend and retract said panel; a track disposed to extend in at least partial alignment with said pair of lateral ends of said panel; and a telescoping rod disposed to join said panel with said track, said telescoping rod configured to adjustably increase and decrease in length in coordination with the extension and retraction of said panel.
