Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8901445A1] This automobile car cover (10) is tailored to conform approximately to the shape of an automobile and is made with an impervious film material with a reflective external surface for rejecting incident sunlight. The internal surface of the car cover has sufficiently greater roughness than an automobile surface to avoid adhesion to the surface and permit air permeation between the automobile surface and internal surface of the cover. This air between the cover and automobile is also believed to serve as an insulating function. Means (24, 26) are provided at an upper portion of the car cover for venting air from beneath the cover and resisting intrusion of water. Tests have shown that such a car cover can maintain a car as much as 45 DEG C cooler than a like automobile also parked in the sun but without a cover.
