A protective cover system for a motor vehicle includes a first roller, a first cover wound onto the first roller, a second roller and a second cover wound onto the second roller. The protective cover system also includes a control module for displacing the covers between stowed and deployed positions covering one or both of the motor vehicle bumper and an interior cargo floor of the motor vehicle.

A cover for a vehicle having a first compartment and a second compartment includes a first section, a second section and an intermediate section. The first section includes at least one connector and is adapted to overlie the first compartment. The second section includes at least one connector and the intermediate section is located between the first section and the second section. In a first position the cover defines a first effective surface area, and the first section is in a first position, the second section is in a first position, and the intermediate section is not parallel to the first section and second section. In a second position, the cover defines a second effective surface area that is less than the first effective surface area, and either or both of the first section and the second section is in a second position.

The vehicle sunshade is adapted for use as a sunshade within a vehicle. The vehicle sunshade is a retractable shade that is mounted in the vehicle where front windshield meets the roof of the vehicle. The shade contained on the retractable shade is adapted to fit around the rearview mirror mounted on the windshield of the vehicle and to extend laterally to partially block sunlight from passing through the front windows. The vehicle sunshade comprises a roller, a shade, a first clip, and a second clip.

A roof mounted retractable car cover. The cover includes front and rear cover portions independently extended and retracted into a housing. The housing preferably includes a springed retractions mechanism and the front and/or rear portions include folded panels to cover side windows of a vehicle. The housing may be integrated into a roof rack to utilized a single mounting system.

Various embodiments are directed to an anti-icing and ultra-violet (UV) reflective apparatus for vehicle windshields and windows. The apparatus may include a housing including a hinged door covering interior components contained therein. The components may include a cover component coupled to an interior of the housing that stores a cover for covering a vehicle windshield and vehicle windows and that reflects UV radiation. The components may further include a roller component, coupled to an interior of the housing, that stores a set of rollers in an anti-freezing compound utilized for coating the cover. The components may also include a turning mechanism coupled to the cover component through an exterior side of the housing that extends the cover onto the vehicle windshield and/or the vehicle windows to protect the at least one of the vehicle windshield and the one or more vehicle windows against freezing and the UV radiation.

This present invention relates to a top-mounted vehicle cargo securing system used to firmly secure luggage containers and protect them from inclement weather atop of a vehicle, as well as to cover a vehicle windshield when the vehicle is not in use. Each of the protective cover and the windshield cover are repositionable between a stowed positioned within the housing of the vehicle cargo securing system, and a deployed position over the respective cargo and windshield, respectively. Each of the protective cover and the windshield cover are repositionable either manually or remotely, and may further comprise a UV protective coating and/or an anti-microbial coating.

A truck bed cover includes rails attached along truck bed side tops, slats residing laterally between the rails, end caps attached to opposite ends of each slat sliding forward and rearward in the rails, and flexible joiner hinges attaching consecutive ones of the slats. A cover holder resided between truck sides against a truck cab. The cover slides into the holder for storage, and rolls into a spiral inside the holder. Each slat includes two end walls and a center wall. The center wall includes a center “C” shaped portion and vertical portions reaching up from the center “C” shaped portion to a slat top surface and down from the center “C” shaped portion to a slat bottom surface. The slat top is cambered to reduce or eliminate water pooling on the cover.

The electrical system between the battery and the tarp motor uses a significant amount of heavy cabling to deliver the power required. Disclosed are electrical systems to reduce the amount of wire necessary by employing the vehicle body for the electrical ground; momentarily configuring the battery bank to raise the voltage; and a control system to simplify the user interface.

A bed cover assembly for a pickup truck may include cover guides coupled to upper ends of both body sides of a pickup truck and having guide means such as a guide rail formed inward of the truck; a bed cover coupled between the cover guides to slide along the guide means; and rotary guide rail assemblies hinged to both body sides of the rear of the truck, wherein when the bed cover moves rearward, the rotary guide rail assemblies rotate upward about respective hinge axes thereof and the bed cover moves along guide means formed at the rotary guide rail assemblies.

A motorized sunshade to optionally cover at least a portion of a windshield of an automobile, the motorized sunshade including a roller rod removably disposed on a top edge of an exterior surface of the windshield, a rolling shade disposed within an interior portion of the roller rod to cover the windshield in response to a movement of the rolling shade from a first position to a second position and to expose the windshield in response to a movement of the rolling shade from the second position to the first position, and a plurality of tracks disposed at side edges of the windshield and removably connected to the roller rod, such that the rolling shade slides between and at least partially within each of the plurality of tracks.
