Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention


This invention relates to a sun visor for an automobile window, particularly to one able to achieve decorative effect and elevate whole external beauty.


2. Description of the Prior Art


Generally, for air circulation, the windows of an automobile are most probably moved downward to form gaps so that air inside and outside the automobile can carry out convection. However, when it is raining, rain will get into the automobile through the opened gaps of the windows and wet the persons in the automobile, or when an automobile is driven at high speeds, wind will blow into the automobile through the opened gaps and form strong wind pressure to rock the automobile and mess up a person's hair. Or if the sunlight is strong, the sunlight will shine into the automobile through the opened gaps. Therefore, an automobile is additionally installed with a sun visor on the upper edge of the outer side of a window. A conventional sun visor integrally made of acrylic material is directly glued on the frame edge of an automobile window for obstructing sunlight, rain and wind; nevertheless, the conventional sun visor for an automobile window does not have decorative effect in external look and hence appears extremely disharmonious.


SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The objective of this invention is to offer a sun visor for an automobile window, having decorative effect for beautifying its external look.


The sun visor for an automobile window in the present invention, which is formed integrally and has a shape matching that of the upper edge of an automobile window frame, has its upper rim and two sides formed with a smooth combining portion, a bulgy and arc-shaped screening portion formed to extend downward from a lower section of the combining portion and a glue sheet adhered on an inner side of the combining portion.


The feature of this invention is that a decorative bar is provided on the outer side of the combining portion of the sun visor and has its opposite ends respectively covered with a protective member having an inner side formed with an engage groove for each end of the decorative bar to be engaged therein. The protective member has its upper edge formed with a stop surface for resisting against the top edge of both the decorative bar and the combining portion of the sun visor.

The sun visor 1 has an upper rim and two sides formed with a smooth combining portion 10, a bulgy and arc-shaped screening portion 11 formed to extend downward from a lower section of the combining portion 10, and a glue sheet 2 adhered on an inner side of the combining portion 10. A decorative bar 3 is installed on the outer side of the combining portion 10, having its opposite ends respectively covered with a protective member 4 that has its inner side formed with an engage groove 40 and its upper edge formed with a stop surface 41.


In assembling, referring to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, firstly, the decorative bar 3 is firmly glued on the outer side of the combining portion 10 of the sun visor 1, and the two protective members 4 are respectively adhered to the opposite ends of the decorative bar 3 to have the two ends of the decorative bar 3 respectively engaged in the engage groove 40 of the two protective members 4. At this time, the stop surface 41 of the protective members 4 will resist on the stop edges of both the decorative bar 3 and the combining portion 101 to prevent the two ends of the decorative bar 3 from bending upward and produce decorative effect, thus finishing assembly of the sun visor for an automobile window.


In using, referring to FIG. 4, the sun visor 1 has the inner side of the combining portion 10 firmly stuck to the upper edge 50 of the window frame of an automobile 5 by means of the glue sheet 2. Thus, when the automobile window is moved downward to form a gap, the screening portion 11 of the sun visor 1 will produce a marked effect, able to maintain air circulation inside the automobile during running of the automobile, no mater what the weather is, impossible to affect driving of the automobile. In addition, the decorative bar 3 provided on the upper edge of the combining portion 10 is able to beautify the external look of the sun visor 1, having decorative effect for elevating external appearance and matching the integral look of an automobile.
