Description
BACKGROUND
[0001] The present invention relates to fresh air ventilation for
automobiles, more specifically, a device to provide fresh air
ventilation into a vehicle while preventing insects from entering
into the vehicle.
[0002] The inventor of this invention realized that there is a need
to screen insects from entering into a vehicle while the vehicle
has its glass windows open. She realized that during certain days
of the year, insects are more abundant that others. The inventor
enjoys driving her vehicle with her windows down, and on occasions,
insects have entered her vehicle. To her this was an inconvenience,
for there was nothing more she enjoyed than cruising the roadways
with the windows down.
[0003] The inventor knew that she had to invent a device that would
keep insects out of her vehicle, while allowing her to enjoy fresh
air. The inventor, being a mother, is very concerned about insects
entering her vehicle, because of the dangers insects pose the
occupants of her vehicle. A danger being that a driver of a vehicle
might be distracted by an insect and this might lead to an
accident. Another danger is the risk posed by insect bites. An
occupant highly allergic to insect bites might experience an
adverse reaction.
[0004] The inventor also realized, that a window screen could also
prove to be beneficial to animal owners, for on occasions, she has
temporarily had to leave her animals within her vehicle. The
dangers to this were documented in U.S. Pat. No. 6,796,358 B1. The
inventor's invention provides a further solution to the problem
addressed in the above Patent. The U.S. Pat. No. 6,796,358 B1
solves the problem described in the same Patent, but does not
disclose what a user might do when driving the vehicle during a
sudden downpour. In a downpour, the user would have to stop the
vehicle, remove the patented device, and then raise the automobile
window. This might not be a large burden if faced on rural roads,
but can prove to be a hazard if the vehicle is on the highway at
the time of the downpour.
SUMMARY
[0005] The present invention is directed to a vehicle window screen
system that prevents insects from entering into a vehicle when the
glass windows of the vehicle are down. This invention also allows a
vehicle owner to leave an animal within a vehicle for short periods
of time when the glass windows of the vehicle are down.
[0006] An embodiment of the vehicle window screen system for
preventing insects from entering into the vehicle comprises a
housing, the housing has a thin opening along its length and has
two ends along its width, the housing attaches to a vehicle door at
a location interior to a glass window of the vehicle door and
attaches to the door at the lower window opening of the door, a
spool is attached to the ends of the housing, a screen, the screen
having upper, lower and two side sides, and the lower side of the
screen attaches to the spool, two flexible guides attach to the
sides of the screen, a screen cap attaches to the upper side of the
screen, wherein the screen cap has at least one loop for hooking, a
plurality of rails attached on the borders of the opening of the
vehicle door, wherein the guides of the screen are placed within
the rails, and at least one hook attaches to the upper window door
so that at least one loop of the screen cap can be hooked on at
least one hook when the screen is in the up/closed position.
[0007] In the above embodiment of the vehicle window screen system,
the vehicle window screen system can be either permanently attached
to the vehicle door or be removable. One makes the embodiment
removable by either using magnets or VELCRO materials to attach the
window screen system to the vehicle door. It is known in the art
how to permanently attach the window screen system to the door.
[0008] The screen of the vehicle window screen system can be made
of materials readily available. The screen might be made of mesh,
fiberglass, or aluminum. The screen can be colored to esthetically
enhance the value of the vehicle window screen system. The screen
can also be shaded to protect the occupants of the vehicle from
ultraviolet rays.
[0009] The above embodiment can easily be modified to cover the
same area that a sunroof covers.
[0010] In another embodiment of the invention, the vehicle window
screen system for preventing insects from entering into a vehicle
comprises a glass window system and a screen system being housed
adjacent to each other within an opening of a vehicle. The glass
window system comprises a window, a plurality of window guides, a
plurality of glass window rails, a window regulator, and a window
switch, the window attaches to the window guides, the window
inserts within the window rails, the window regulator connects to
the window guides, and the glass window switch connects to the
window regulator. The screen system is located adjacent to the
glass window system, the screen system comprises a screen, a screen
skeleton, a plurality of screen guides, a plurality of screen
rails, a screen regulator, and a screen switch, the screen attaches
to the screen skeleton, the screen skeleton attaches to the screen
guides, the screen skeleton inserts within the screen rails, the
screen regulator connects to the screen guides, and the screen
switch connects to the screen regulator.
[0011] This embodiment of the window screen system might further
comprise a precipitation detector, wherein the precipitation
detector attaches to the glass window switch and when the
precipitation detector detects precipitation, the detector sends a
message to the glass window switch, the glass window switch
activates the glass window system to close the glass window system.
In an embodiment, the precipitation detector shall be on the
screen.
[0012] The screen system of the vehicle window screen system can be
placed inward or outward of the glass window system 402 in relation
to the interior of the vehicle.
[0013] The above embodiment can easily be modified to cover the
same area that a sunroof covers.

[0046] In a further embodiment of the window screen system 700 seen
in FIGS. 6-7b, the vehicle window screen system 700 comprises a
precipitation detector 714, wherein the precipitation detector 714
attaches to the glass window switch 612 and when the precipitation
detector 714 detects precipitation, the detector 714 sends a
message to the glass window switch 612, the glass window switch 612
activates the glass window system 602 to close. In an embodiment,
the precipitation detector 714 shall be on the screen 704.
[0047] The screen system 702 of the vehicle window screen system
700 can be placed inward or outward of the glass window system 602
in relation to the interior of the vehicle.
[0048] The above embodiment can easily be modified to cover the
same area that a sunroof covers.
[0049] In the above embodiment, the glass motor 611 and the screen
motor 711 can be one and the same.
[0050] An advantage to this invention is that it allows a driver to
drive with his vehicle with the glass windows open.
[0051] Another advantage of this invention is that it prevents
insects from entering into a vehicle.
[0052] A further advantage of this invention is that it allows a
driver of a vehicle to leave a pet for short periods of time within
the vehicle.
[0053] Another advantage of this invention, when using the
embodiment that uses the precipitation detector, a driver does not
have to pull a vehicle over when a sudden downpour occurs, for the
detector will activate the glass window to close.
[0054] Although the present invention has been described in
considerable detail with reference to certain preferred versions
thereof, other versions are possible. Therefore the spirit and the
scope of the claims should not be limited to the description of the
preferred versions contained herein.
