A device for screening a window (F) of a vehicle (V) includes a frame configured to be stably engaged with the vehicle (V), a first rail disposed between a first and a second upright of the frame, and a retractable screen with a front edge free to slide on the first rail and a rear edge attached to the second upright. A connecting rod is hinged with a first end thereof to the front edge of the screen, and a bracket is hinged to a second end of the connecting rod.

An overmold is disclosed, wherein the overmold may be incorporated into a window assembly. The overmold comprises a base portion and a receiving portion. The receiving portion may comprise a notch or a channel operable to receive a window. The window may be such that when coupled with the overmold, the sides of the overmold and the window are substantially co-planar. Accordingly, window may comprise a first and a second substrate, wherein the second substrate is coupled to a first side of the first substrate. Further, the first substrate may extend beyond the second substrate. Therefore, the overmold, when in abutting contact with the window, may extend onto the first side of the first substrate up to the second substrate.

A vehicle window vent is shaped and sized to fit in the opening left when the vehicle window is lowered or retracted. The vent fits in the opening, and its edges are captured by channels that hold the window when the window is closed. Along one edge, the vent comprises a channel, similar to the window-opening channel, so that the vent can accept an edge of the window. Thus, when the window is opened and then partially closed on the vent, the window and vent together are held securely in the window opening. The vent comprises louvered openings to allow air in and out of the vehicle. The openings may be covered with screen or mesh to prevent insects from entering the vehicle. Other features may be provided as well. An efficient method for manufacturing the vents is also described and claimed.

Wheel carriage assemblies and related fabric deployment systems and methods are disclosed. A wheel carriage assembly comprising at least one wheel with ball bearings on the interior of each wheel, and a pivot point that allows for position independence, is configured with a hembar coupled to a piece of fabric to allow a surface of varying shape to be covered. The system provides the ability to cover both traditional window shapes as well as surfaces of irregular shape or inclined orientation, and reduces and evens the amount of wear on certain components to extend system life.

A sunshade structure is disclosed. The sunshade structure includes a sunshade; a guide rail; a sunshade stopper configured to stop a movement of the sunshade, the sunshade stopper including a first side wall and a second side wall; and an end cap configured to cap an end of the guide rail, the end cap including a bottom plate, a first sunshade stopper retention wall extending vertically from the bottom plate and configured to extend around the first side wall a second sunshade stopper retention wall extending vertically from the bottom plate and configured to extend around a junction of the first side wall and the second side wall a third sunshade stopper retention wall extending vertically from the bottom plate and configured to extend around the second side wall; and a fourth wall extending vertically from the bottom plate and configured to extend from an end of the second side wall to the end of the guide rail.

A car window and door guard has an upper or window portion configured to be mounted over the window frame surrounding the window of a car door, and a lower or door portion or cover configured to be lie over the door panel. The window portion has a front panel and a rear panel to form a sleeve. The window portion is generally see-through or transparent. The door includes an upper strip or section and a series of window tabs. Each window tab has a generally flat or planar portion extending from an elongated upper channel portion. The channel portion captures the door window slot or surround to prevent the window tab from being moved upward during the raising of the window. The door portion also has a lower section extending downwardly from the upper section that drapes over the car's door panel to protect the door panel.

A door curtain hook device for a vehicle may include a frame mount configured to be fixed to a door frame of the vehicle; a curtain hook having a wedge portion configured to be coupled with the frame mount and a curtain locking portion in which a door curtain is hooked integrally formed thereon; and a door curtain mounting gap formed to have a hook structure in the curtain locking portion.

A shading device includes a retractable and deployable shading curtain that includes at least one shading layer and has a first longitudinal side and a second longitudinal side opposite to the first longitudinal side; a drawing device configured to deploy the shading curtain; and a first guide rail having a groove configured to receive and guide the first longitudinal side of the shading curtain. A deployed section of the first longitudinal side of the shading curtain is at least partially received in the groove when the shading curtain is in a partially or finally deployed state. The first longitudinal side has support members, by way of which the first longitudinal side is receivable and guidable in the groove.
