A shade device for a vehicle includes: a shade; a retracting mechanism attached to a base end of the shade and retracting the shade in a stored state; a stay attached to a tip end of the shade; an extractable constant force spring; a rod, its tip end portion being attached to the stay and its base end portion being connected to the constant force spring, biased in a deploying direction of the shade by biasing force of the constant force spring, and transmitting the biasing force to the stay; a guide rail that stores the rod and an extracted portion of the constant force spring in the stored state of the shade, and guides the rod when the shade shifts from the stored state to the deploying state; and a locking mechanism that locks movement of the rod in the stored state of the shade.

WINDING DEVICE

The present invention discloses a winding device that includes a screen, a shaft portion to which one end of the screen is fastened, a rotary shaft member that fits to an end portion of the shaft portion so that the rotary shaft member is rotated around a rotation axis along an axial direction of the shaft portion, and a biasing portion that biases the rotary shaft member in a rotation direction for winding the screen. A relative rotation restriction structure and a movement restriction structure are formed on a fitting portion between the shaft portion and the rotary shaft member. The relative rotation restriction structure restricts a relative rotation of the shaft portion with respect to the rotary shaft member. The movement restriction structure restricts a movement of the shaft portion in the axial direction with respect to the rotary shaft member.
