Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0001] This claims priority from Japanese Application No. 2020-24988, filed Feb. 18, 2020, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present invention relates to an awning for a cruiser, to be attached to an open cabin formed by opening an upper side of a cabin of a cruiser.

BACKGROUND ART

[0003] Conventionally, there are cruisers having cabins whose upper sides are open (cabins of this kind are collectively called open cabins), such as a cruiser that has a main cabin with a steering which is opened to the air, and a cruiser that has a flying deck (called a flying bridge, also) with a steering which is provided on the roof of a main cabin.

[0004] Since such an open cabin has the upper side opened, a steersman can enjoy a refreshing sense of exhilaration while steering.

[0005] However, when steering in an open cabin, a steersman is exposed to strong headwinds, splashing waves, or exposed to sunlight, so an enclosure is installed in the open cabin in order to enclose the steering seat and protect the steersman.

[0006] There are various types of enclosures, and most of them are formed so that transparent vinyl sheets are extended via fasteners on the front face and both side faces of a main frame constructed in the form of a box on an open cabin, and a light shielding sheet is extended on the top face of the main frame. Therefore, such an enclosure does not have a good external appearance since the box-shaped enclosure projects from the streamlined hull.

[0007] Furthermore, ventilation can be allowed to blow into the enclosure by opening the fasteners of the transparent vinyl sheets, however, generally, the cruiser is anchored while being left exposed to the weather in a marina, and the transparent vinyl sheets may deform due to temperature changes and other various conditions making the fasteners difficult to be smoothly opened and closed, so that usability is low.

[0008] Therefore, as disclosed in Patent Literature 1, the inventor of the present invention developed an awning configured so that, in an awning provided with a transparent window panel that slides to open and close a space between the front end of a roof cover and an open cabin front portion provided in front of the roof cover front end at the front of the light shielding roof cover disposed at an upper side of an open cabin of a cruiser, the roof cover is inclined to slope down forward and the window panel is inclined continuously from the inclination of the roof cover, slide rails with a constant space from side frames are disposed below the side frames supporting the roof cover, and left and right sides of the window panel are attached slidably to the slide rails.

[0009] This awning has many features such as a feature in which opening and closing operability of the window panel is excellent, and in particular, when the window panel is closed, the awning has an appearance having a streamlined form from the window panel to the roof cover to direct air to blow down forward, and these features have been well-received by consumers.

[0010] Further, as disclosed in Patent Literature 2, the inventor of the present invention has automated window panel opening and closing operations by attaching an exclusive window regulator in the awning described in Patent Literature 1, thereby eliminating the inconvenience of manual operation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Problem to be Solved by the Invention

[0013] Recently, cruisers have increased in size, and correspondingly, awnings disclosed in Patent Literatures 1 and 2 listed above have inevitably increased in size, and accordingly, separate manufacturing/storage facilities and transportation means for large-sized awnings suitable for large cruisers are necessary, and this has led to a problem in which awning costs have increased.

[0014] Therefore, an object of the present invention is to reduce costs required from manufacturing to attachment of an awning to a cruiser by configuring an awning adapted to various sizes by dividing the awning that had been manufactured by attaching sheets to a frame, into a plurality of divided body portions made of fiber-reinforced plastic, and connecting these divided body portions.

Means for Solving the Problem

[0015] In view of the problem described above, an awning for a cruiser according to the present invention is configured so that a light shielding roof panel made of fiber-reinforced plastic to be disposed at the top of an open cabin of a cruiser is divided parallel to a central axis in a front-rear direction into three divided bodies in a plan view including a central divided body and left and right-side divided bodies bilaterally symmetric via the central divided body, and the central divided body and the left and right-side divided bodies are respectively divided at an appropriate straight line orthogonal to the central axis into two parts respectively including a central divided body front portion and a central divided body rear portion, and left and right-side divided body front portions and left and right-side divided body rear portions.

[0016] The roof panel is curved in the front-rear direction at a predetermined downward inclination at a front side, and is provided with a window opening frame that is enclosed by a roof panel front end, a cross bar disposed at an open cabin front portion in a front lower portion of the roof panel front end, and side pillars extending so as to descend forward from left and right-side ends of the roof panel front end and supporting both ends of the cross bar, and in the window opening frame, a transparent front window that slides forward and rearward to open and close the window opening frame is provided to incline so as to be continuous with the downward inclination of the roof panel, and the cross bar consists of an intermediate portion having an end-to-end dimension equal to a horizontal width of the central divided body and regarded as a portion of the central divided body front portion, and left and right end portions divided bilaterally symmetrically via the intermediate portion and formed integrally and continuously with the side pillars of the left and right-side divided bodies.

[0017] Further, the central divided body front portion is set to have a predetermined constant shape and size, and the central divided body rear portion, the left and right-side divided body front portions and the left and right-side divided body rear portions are formed to fit the shape and size of the central divided body front portion and have predetermined appropriate shapes and sizes set according, to the shape and size of the open cabin.

Effects of the Invention

[0018] In short, in the present invention, a light shielding roof panel made of reinforced-fiber plastic to be disposed at the top of an open cabin of a cruiser is divided parallel to a central axis in the front-rear direction into three divided bodies in a plan view including a central divided body and left and right-side divided bodies bilaterally symmetric via the central divided body, and the central divided body and the left and right-side divided bodies are respectively divided at an appropriate straight line orthogonal to the central axis into two parts respectively including a central divided body front portion and a central divided body rear portion, and left and right-side divided body front portions and left and right-side divided body rear portions, and therefore, the awning can be manufactured, stored and transported in a divided state of the roof panel, and only by assembling the divided body portions transported to a storage site of the cruiser such as a marina, the awning adapted to the size of the open cabin can be attached, and separate manufacturing/storage facilities and transportation means responding to an increase in size of the awning are not required, so that costs required from manufacturing to attachment of the awning to a cruiser can be reduced.

[0019] The roof panel is curved in the front-rear direction at a predetermined downward inclination at a front side, and is provided with a window opening frame that is enclosed by a roof panel front end, a cross bar disposed at an open cabin front portion in a front lower portion of the roof panel front end, and side pillars extending so as to descend forward from left and right ends of the roof panel front end and supporting both ends of the cross bar, and in the window opening frame, a transparent front window that slides forward and rearward to open and close the window opening frame is provided to incline so as to be continuous with the downward inclination of the roof panel, and the cross bar consists of an intermediate portion having an end-to-end dimension equal to a horizontal width of the central divided body and regarded as a portion of the central divided body front portion, and left and right end portions divided bilaterally symmetrically via the intermediate portion and formed integrally and continuously with the side pillars of the left and right-side divided bodies, and therefore, an awning in which the divided body portions of the roof panel and the front window are assembled is comparable to the forms described in Patent Literatures 1 and 2, and relieves air resistance of headwinds against the open cabin by the inclination of the roof panel and reduces sway of the cruiser caused by the headwinds and makes steering excellent, and in comparison with a conventional box-shaped enclosure, the awning harmonizes with a streamlined cruiser, and can be used as an extremely attractive roof.

[0020] In addition, a transparent front window that slides forward and rearward to open and close the window opening frame at the front side of the roof panel is continuous with the inclination of the roof panel, so that as compared with troublesome opening and closing means using fasteners in the conventional enclosure, the window opening frame can be opened and closed by an easy operation of sliding the front window, and in a closed state of the front window, the awning assumes an appearance with a streamlined form in which the inclination of the roof panel is continuous from the front window and is attractive in comparison with the conventional box-shaped enclosure, realizes excellent visibility and shields against strong headwinds and splashing waves, so that a steersman can steer the cruiser without trouble, and in an opened state of the front window, ventilation can be allowed to blow in a steering seat in the open cabin, and a steersman can feel a refreshing sense of exhilaration.

[0021] The central divided body front portion is set to have a predetermined constant shape and size, and the central divided body rear portion, the left and right-side divided body front portions and the left and right-side divided body rear portions are formed to fit the shape and size of the central divided body front portion and have predetermined appropriate shapes and sizes set according to a shape and a size of the open cabin, and therefore, it becomes possible to provide a plurality of awnings suitable for shapes and sizes of open cabins, and the central divided body front portion with constant shape and size can be used in common without dimensional changes, so that only one kind of mold is used for the central divided body front portion, which brings about significant practical effects such that costs can be reduced correspondingly.

MODES FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

[0033] Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention is described based on the drawings.

[0034] In an awning 1 according to the present invention, a light shielding roof panel 2 made of fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) to be disposed at the top of an open cabin C1 of a cruiser C shown in FIG. 7 is formed into a substantially rectangular shape that is long in the front-rear direction, bilaterally symmetric, and curvedly projects at the front and rear sides in a plan view so as to correspond to the size of the open cabin C1, and is divided parallel to a central axis X in the front-rear direction into three divided bodies including a central divided body 3 and left and right-side divided bodies 4 bilaterally symmetric via the central divided body 3, and the central divided body 3 and the left and right-side divided bodies 4 are respectively divided at an appropriate straight line Y orthogonal to the central axis X into two parts respectively including a central divided body front portion 3a and a central divided body rear portion 3b, and left and right-side divided body front portions 4a and left and right-side divided body rear portions 4b.

[0035] The cruiser C in FIG. 7 is a type provided with a flying deck (open cabin C1) on a roof of a main cabin, and as a matter of course, the awning 1 is applicable to a cruiser other than the cruiser C of this type as long as the cruiser has an open cabin that is a roofless open type.

[0036] The roof panel 2 is formed so that a front side and a rear side are curved in the front-rear direction at a predetermined downward inclination, and is provided with a window opening frame 6 that is enclosed by a roof panel front end 2a bilaterally symmetric in a plan view and curvedly projecting forward, a cross bar 5 disposed so as to curvedly project forward as with the roof panel front end 2a at an open cabin Cl front portion in a front lower portion of the roof panel front end 2a, and side pillars 2b extending so as to descend forward along the curve in the front-rear direction from left and right ends of the roof panel front end 2a and supporting both ends of the cross bar 5.

[0037] In the window opening frame 6, a transparent front window 7 that slides forward and rearward to open and close the window opening frame 6 is provided to incline so as to be continuous with the downward inclination of the roof panel 2 in a closed state of the window opening frame.

[0038] As shown in FIG. 6, the cross bar 5 consists of an intermediate portion 5a having an end-to-end dimension D in a plan view equal to a horizontal width W of the central divided body 3, and regarded as a portion of the central divided body front portion 3a, and left and right end portions 5b divided bilaterally symmetrically via the intermediate portion 5a and formed integrally and continuously with the side pillars 2b of the left and right-side divided bodies 4.

[0039] Therefore, the roof panel 2 consists of seven pieces including the central divided body front portion 3a, the central divided body rear portion 3b, the intermediate portion 5a, the left divided body front portion 4a, the left divided body rear portion 4b, the right divided body front portion 4a, and the right divided body rear portion 4b (hereinafter, referred to as divided body portions 3, 3a, 4a, 4b, and 5a, also), and each of the divided body portions 3, 3a, 4a, 4b, and 5a is formed of a hollow double wall structure provided with an inner wall and an outer wall facing each other via a gap (refer to FIG. 9), and therefore, even when the roof panel is increased in size, it can be made light in weight and high in strength.

[0040] At peripheral edges of the portions 3, 3a, 4a, 4b, and 5a, hanging walls H are formed, and in the hanging walls (hereinafter, referred to as connecting walls H1) that come into contact with the divided body portions 3, 3a, 4a, 4b, and 5a in the hanging walls H in an assembled state where the divided body portions are assembled, a plurality of bolt insertion holes (not shown) are formed, and a bolt B is inserted through bolt insertion holes that communicate with each other due to the contact between the connecting walls H1 of the divided body portions 3, 3a, 4a, 4b, and 5a, and by fastening nuts N to the bolts B, the divided body portions 3, 3a, 4a, 4b, and 5a adjacent to each other are connected to constitute the roof panel 2.

[0041] Between the connecting walls H1, a waterproof treatment is applied by filling a silicon-based sealing material (not shown).

[0042] The central divided body 3 is formed into a rectangular shape long in the front-rear direction in a plan view, and has a slightly small terrace portion 8 provided to bulge upward on the outer wall.

[0043] On the inner wall of the central divided body front portion 3a, at a position corresponding to the terrace portion 8, a recessed portion 9 having an upper surface curved along the curved shape of the roof panel 2 in the front-rear direction is recessed, and inside the recessed portion 9, a window regulator 10 (for the sake of description, not shown in FIG. 4 but shown only in FIGS. 2 and 9) having the same configuration as that disclosed in Patent Literature 2 is stored and retained along the curved shape of the recessed portion.

[0044] This window regulator 10 is provided with a transfer 10a projecting downward from the window regulator so as to freely reciprocate forward and rearward along the curved shape of the roof panel 2 in the front-rear direction, and the transfer 10a is linked to the front window 7 as described later.

[0045] The front window 7 is made of plastic such as polycarbonate, and has an area substantially matching the window opening frame 6, and is formed into a substantially horizontally long rectangular shape in a front view that is curved like an arch in the same manner as the cross bar 5 in the left-right direction, and on a back surface of the front window, a pipe-shaped window frame 11 is installed along a peripheral edge shape of the front window 7.

[0046] At the front and rear (the upper side and the lower side) of the left and right sides 11a of the window frame 11, as shown in FIG. 10, brackets 12 shaped into L-shaped plates whose tip ends are bent upward are provided to project outward, and to the tip ends of the brackets 12, rollers 13 are attached, and the rollers 13 are fitted so as to freely travel on the left and right edges of the inner wall of the roof panel 2, more specifically, on arc-shaped tracks 14 installed along the curved shape from the front ends of the side pillars 2b to the rear sides of the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a.

[0047] Each track 14 is a pipe rail having a C-shaped section formed by forming a slit 14a through which the tip end of the bracket 12 is inserted with play across the lengthwise direction of the bottom portion, and tip ends of the brackets 12 are inserted in the slits 14a and the rollers 13 are brought into contact with the insides of the pipe rails (tracks) 14, and accordingly, the front window 7 is guided to slide forward and rearward along the tracks 14 so as to open and close the window opening frame 6.

[0048] Then, by pivotally fitting and joining the transfer 10a projecting downward from the window regulator 10 to a projection piece 15 provided to project rearward from an intermediate portion of the rear side (upper side) 11b of the window frame 11 corresponding to an upper edge of the front window 7 via a connection rod 16, the transfer 10a and the front window 7 are linked to each other, and accordingly, the front window 7 is configured to automatically slide to open and close the window opening frame 6 in response to movement of the transfer 10a.

[0049] In other words, in a state where the window opening frame 6 is closed by the front window 7 as shown in the drawings, the front side 11c and the rear side lib of the window frame 11 are disposed to respectively overlap an upper portion of the cross bar 5 and a lower portion of the roof panel front end 2a, and on the other hand, in a state where the front window 7 is slid rearward and the window opening frame 6 is opened (not shown), the front window 7 is disposed to overlap and be parallel to the lower portion of the roof panel 2 at a constant interval.

[0050] At appropriate positions on the rear sides of the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a, short-length rear legs 17 having inverted truncated square pyramid shapes whose lower end faces are made horizontal are provided to project downward.

[0051] The rear legs 17 and appropriate portions of the left and right-side divided body rear portions 4b at the rear of the rear legs respectively fix upper ends of ladder-structured support legs 18 erected on left and right appropriate portions of the open cabin Cl (refer to FIGS. 7 and 9).

[0052] Then, in the open cabin C1, the cross bar 5 at the front side of the roof panel 2 is joined to and supported on upper ends of a plurality of support columns 19 erected at predetermined intervals along an inner periphery of a front face portion of an existing windshield panel C2 circumferentially provided at the front side of the open cabin.

[0053] Accordingly, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the awning 1 to which the divided body portions 3, 3a, 4a, 4b, and 5a and the front window 7 are assembled as described above is comparable to the forms described in Patent Literatures 1 and 2, and is fixed to the top of the open cabin C1 so that the inclination of the awning is continuous above the windshield panel C2, and relieves air resistance of headwinds against the open cabin C1 by the inclination of the roof panel 2 to reduce sway of the cruiser C caused by the headwinds and realize excellent steering, and in comparison with a conventional box-shaped enclosure, the awning harmonizes with the streamlined cruiser C, and can be used as an extremely attractive roof.

[0054] In addition, the transparent front window 7 that slides forward and rearward to open and close the window opening frame 6 at the front side of the roof panel 2 is provided continuous with the inclination of the roof panel 2, so that as compared with troublesome opening and closing means using fasteners in the conventional enclosure, the window opening frame 6 can be opened and closed by an easy operation of sliding the front window 7, and in a closed state of the front window 7, the awning assumes an appearance with a streamlined form in which the inclination of the roof panel 2 is continuous from the front window 7 and looks good in comparison with the conventional box-shaped enclosure, realizes excellent visibility and shields against strong headwinds and splashing waves, so that a steersman can steer the cruiser C without trouble, and in an opened state of the front window 7, wind can be allowed to blow in a steering seat in the open cabin C1, and a steersman can feel a refreshing sense of freedom.

[0055] The opening and closing operations of the front window 7 are automated by the window regulator 10, and by sliding rearward the front window 7 by the transfer 10a in the window regulator 10 via the connection rod 16, the window opening frame 6 is continuous above the windshield panel C2 is fully opened.

[0056] In order to close the front window 7 from the fully opened state, by moving the transfer 10a forward by the window regulator 10, the front window 7 is slid forward and closed.

[0057] During the opening or closing operation of the front window 7, by stopping the transfer 10a, the window opening frame 6 can be opened at a predetermined opening degree.

[0058] The awning 1 configured as described above can be manufactured, stored and transported in the divided state of the roof panel 2 as described above, and only by assembling the divided body portions 3a, 3b, 4a, 4b, and 5a and the front window 7, etc., transported to a storage site of the cruiser C such as a marina, the awning 1 adapted to the size of the open cabin C1 can be attached, and does not require separate manufacturing/storage facilities and transportation means responding to an increase in size of the awning 1, so that costs required from manufacturing to attachment of the awning to the cruiser can be reduced.

[0059] The shape and size of the awning 1 must be made to correspond to an open cabin C1 that varies in shape and size according to the type of the cruiser C, and without changing the shapes and sizes of all the divided body portions 3, 3a, 4a, 4b, and 5a constituting the roof panel 2, only the central divided body front portion 3a (including the intermediate portion 5a) is set to have a predetermined constant shape and size and is used in common in roof panels 2 with different shapes and sizes, and accordingly, only one mold is used for the central divided body front portion 3a and the intermediate portion 5a, and costs can be reduced correspondingly.

[0060] Therefore, in the roof panel 2, the central divided body rear portion 3b, the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a, and the left and right-side divided body rear portions 4b are continuous in shape and size and made in proportion to the shape and size of the central divided body front portion 3a including the intermediate portion 5a, and set to have predetermined appropriate shapes and sizes according to the shape and size of the open cabin C1 (refer to FIG. 11).

[0061] Specifically, as shown in FIG. 11 in which two awnings 1 sharing the central divided body front portion 3a including the intermediate portion 5a and different in shape and size from each other are shown by solid lines and alternate long and two short dashed lines, in the awnings 1 respectively having large and small sizes different from each other, the shapes and sizes of left and right connecting walls H1 of the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a are formed into the same curved band plate shapes as the left and right connecting walls H1 of the central divided body front portion 3a to be directly connected to the left and right connecting walls H1 of the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a, and the front ends of the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a are set to have the same curvature as that of the front end of the central divided body front portion 3a so that the roof panel front end 2a has a continuous curve, and the shapes and horizontal widths in the left-right direction of the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a are appropriately set in accordance with the horizontal width of the open cabin C1.

[0062] Further, in the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a, the left and right end portions 5b continuous with the left and right sides of the intermediate portion 5a to constitute the cross bar 5 have small end faces (connecting walls H1) that are to be respectively brought into contact with and connected to the left and right ends of the intermediate portion 5a and are set to have the same shapes as the left and right ends, and are set to have the same curvature as that of the intermediate portion 5a so that the cross bar 5 has a continuous curve, and have lengths according to the horizontal width of the open cabin C1.

[0063] The central divided body rear portion 3b that follows and is connected to the central divided body front portion 3a has the same horizontal width as that of the central divided body front portion 3a, and a shape and a length in the front-rear direction are appropriately set according to the total length of the open cabin C1.

[0064] The left and right-side divided body rear portions 4b are formed into curved band plate shapes having the front end connecting wall H1 and the left and right connecting walls H1 that have the same shapes and sizes as those of the rear end connecting walls H1 of the left and right-side divided body front portions 4a and the left and right connecting walls H1 of the central divided body rear portion 3b that are directly connected to the front end connecting walls H1 and the left and right connecting walls H1 of the left and right-side divided body rear portions 4b, and have rear ends set to have the same curvature as that of the rear end of the central divided body rear portion 3b so that the roof panel rear end has a continuous curve, and have shapes and horizontal widths in the left-right direction appropriately set according to the horizontal width of the open cabin C1.
