CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
BACKGROUND OF THE DISCLOSURE
Field of the Disclosure
[0002] The present disclosure relates to an awning for a vehicle.
Description of the Related Art
[0003] In general, an awning serves as a tent, a sun shelter, a weatherproof tent, and the
like. Recently, various types of awnings for vehicles have been developed, which may
be installed more conveniently by using vehicles.
[0004] An awning for a vehicle in the related art has a structure installed on a roof of
the vehicle by using the vehicle as a part of a support. For example, the awning for
a vehicle may be installed on a roof rack of the vehicle and fixed by poles standing
in a state in which the awning is unfolded when the awning is used.
[0005] Meanwhile, there is a tendency that as a region that the awning may cover increases,
an overall size of the awning increases in proportion to the increase in region covered
by the awning. Various leisure items need to be loaded into a limited space in the
vehicle to allow a user to perform leisure activities. For this reason, various leisure
items are loaded onto the roof of the vehicle. However, there is a problem in that
it is difficult to load other leisure items because of a volume occupied by the awning.
[0006] Accordingly, there is a need for the development of an awning for a vehicle, which
is capable of covering a sufficient region, being minimized in size when stored, and
being easily installed on the vehicle or the like.

[0039] An end of the first horizontal rod 221 of the first pole 220 may be rotatably connected
to the first bracket 210 by means of a first rotary hinge 221a. In the unfolded mode,
the first horizontal rod 221 may rotate by means of the first rotary hinge 221a. In
this case, a rotation radius of the first horizontal rod 221 may be adjusted by the
first stopper 214. In other words, the first horizontal rod 221 may rotate until the
first horizontal rod 221 comes into contact with the first stopper 214. The rotation
of the first horizontal rod 221 may be restricted after the first horizontal rod 221
comes into contact with the first stopper 214.
[0040] FIG. 9 is an enlarged view of part D in FIG. 3, FIG. 10 is a partially exploded view
of FIG. 9, and FIG. 11 is a partial perspective view illustrating a state in which
the first door is removed from the awning for a vehicle according to the embodiment
of the present disclosure.
[0041] Referring to FIGS. 9 to 11, the second pole assembly 300 may include a second bracket
350 fixedly installed on the inner surface of the housing 100, and one or more second
poles 310, 320, and 330 rotatably connected to the second bracket 350 and configured
to rotate to be accommodated in the housing 100 or exposed to the outside of the housing
100.
[0042] In case that the second poles 310, 320, and 330 are provided as a plurality of second
poles 310, 320, and 330, the plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330 may have
the same shape. Therefore, for convenience of description, a configuration of the
second pole, which is designated by reference numeral '310' among the second poles,
will be described below.
[0043] The second bracket 350 may be configured to support the second pole 310 and fix the
second pole 310 to the inner surface of the housing 100, more specifically, to the
inner surface of the body 110.
[0044] For example, the second bracket 350 may include a second fixing piece 351 coupled
to the inner surface of the body 110, a second bracket outer casing 352 seated on
and coupled to an upper surface of the second fixing piece 351, and second bracket
inner casings 353 coupled to an upper inner surface and a lower inner surface of the
second bracket outer casing 352.
[0045] The second pole 310 may be rotatably connected to the second bracket 350. For example,
the second pole 310 may be rotatably connected to the second bracket 350 by means
of a second rotary hinge 31 0a. Meanwhile, in case that the second pole 310 is provided
as a plurality of second poles, the second rotary hinge may also be provided as a
plurality of second rotary hinges 310a, 320a, and 330a, and the plurality of second
rotary hinges 31 0a, 320a, and 330a may respectively have inherent rotation axes C2,
C3, and C4. In this case, the rotation axes C2, C3, and C4 may be disposed in parallel
with one another and spaced apart from one another at predetermined distances in a
width direction of the housing 100. Because the rotation axes C2, C3, and C4 are disposed
to be spaced apart from one another at predetermined distances in the width direction
as described above, the plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330 may be accommodated
in the housing 100 without interfering with one another in the stored mode.
[0046] Furthermore, the rotation axes C2, C3, and C4 of the second rotary hinges 310a, 320a,
and 330a may also be disposed in parallel with a rotation axis C1 of the first rotary
hinge 221a of the first pole 220 and spaced apart from the rotation axis C1 at predetermined
distances in the width direction of the housing 100.
[0047] Therefore, when the first pole 220 and the second pole 310 are accommodated in the
housing 100, the first pole 220 and the second pole 310 may be accommodated side by
side in the housing 100 without interfering with each other.
[0048] Meanwhile, an auxiliary pole 340 may be rotatably provided on at least one of the
plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330. For example, the auxiliary pole 340 may
be rotatably and hingedly coupled to the second pole 330 disposed at an outermost
side among the plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330.

the first horizontal rod 221 may rotate by means of the first rotary hinge 221a. In
this case, a rotation radius of the first horizontal rod 221 may be adjusted by the
first stopper 214. In other words, the first horizontal rod 221 may rotate until the
first horizontal rod 221 comes into contact with the first stopper 214. The rotation
of the first horizontal rod 221 may be restricted after the first horizontal rod 221
comes into contact with the first stopper 214.
[0076] FIG. 25 is an enlarged view of part D in FIG. 19, FIG. 26 is a partially exploded
view of FIG. 25, and FIG. 27 is a partial perspective view illustrating a state in
which the first door is removed from the awning for a vehicle in FIG. 15.
[0077] Referring to FIGS. 25 to 27, the second pole assembly 300 may include a second bracket
350 fixedly installed on the inner surface of the housing 100, and one or more second
poles 310, 320, and 330 rotatably connected to the second bracket 350 and configured
to rotate to be accommodated in the housing 100 or exposed to the outside of the housing
100.
[0078] In case that the second poles 310, 320, and 330 are provided as a plurality of second
poles 310, 320, and 330, the plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330 may have
the same structure. In this case, the plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330
may have the same structure, but overall lengths of the plurality of second poles
310, 320, and 330 may be equal to or different from one another.
[0079] Therefore, for convenience of description, a configuration of the second pole, which
is designated by reference numeral '310' among the second poles, will be described
below.
[0080] The second bracket 350 may be configured to support the second pole 310 and fix the
second pole 310 to the inner surface of the housing 100, more specifically, to the
inner surface of the body 110.
[0081] For example, the second bracket 350 may include a second fixing piece 351 coupled
to the inner surface of the body 110, a second bracket outer casing 352 seated on
and coupled to an upper surface of the second fixing piece 351, and second bracket
inner casings 353 coupled to an upper inner surface and a lower inner surface of the
second bracket outer casing 352.
[0082] The second pole 310 may be rotatably connected to the second bracket 350. For example,
the second pole 310 may be rotatably connected to the second bracket 350 by means
of a second rotary hinge 310a. Meanwhile, in case that the second pole 310 is provided
as a plurality of second poles, the second rotary hinge may also be provided as a
plurality of second rotary hinges 310a, 320a, and 330a, and the plurality of second
rotary hinges 310a, 320a, and 330a may respectively have inherent rotation axes C2,
C3, and C4. In this case, the rotation axes C2, C3, and C4 may be disposed in parallel
with one another and spaced apart from one another at predetermined distances in a
width direction of the housing 100. Because the rotation axes C2, C3, and C4 are disposed
to be spaced apart from one another at predetermined distances in the width direction
as described above, the plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330 may be accommodated
in the housing 100 without interfering with one another in the stored mode.
[0083] Furthermore, the rotation axes C2, C3, and C4 of the second rotary hinges 310a, 320a,
and 330a may also be disposed in parallel with a rotation axis C1 of the first rotary
hinge 221a of the first pole 220 and spaced apart from the rotation axis C1 at predetermined
distances in the width direction of the housing 100.
[0084] Therefore, when the first pole 220 and the second pole 310 are accommodated in the
housing 100, the first pole 220 and the second pole 310 may be accommodated side by
side in the housing 100 without interfering with each other.
[0085] Meanwhile, an auxiliary pole 340 may be rotatably provided on at least one of the
plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330. For example, the auxiliary pole 340 may
be rotatably and hingedly coupled to the second pole 330 disposed at an outermost
side among the plurality of second poles 310, 320, and 330.
[0086] FIG. 28 is an enlarged view of part E in FIG. 19, FIG. 29 is a partially exploded
view of FIG. 28, and FIG. 30 is an enlarged view of part F in FIG. 19.
[0087] Referring to FIGS. 28 to 30, the first pole 220 may include: the first horizontal
rod 221 having a first vertical rod accommodation groove 221b therein and having one
end connected to the first bracket 210 so as to be rotatable in a horizontal direction;
the first vertical rod 222 connected to the other end of the first horizontal rod
221 so as to be rotatable in a vertical direction and having a first auxiliary vertical
rod accommodation groove 222b therein, the first vertical rod 222 being configured
to rotate to be accommodated in the first vertical rod accommodation groove 221b or
exposed to the outside of the first horizontal rod 221; and the first auxiliary vertical
rod 223 slidably connected to the first vertical rod 222 and configured to slide such
that a length of the first auxiliary vertical rod 223 accommodated in the first auxiliary
vertical rod accommodation groove 222b is adjusted.
[0088] The first horizontal rod 221 may be rotatably connected to the first bracket 210
and rotate in the horizontal direction. In this case, the horizontal direction may
mean a direction in which the first horizontal rod 221 rotates in parallel with a
x-y plane based on FIG. 15.
[0089] The first vertical rod 222 may be provided at the other end of the first horizontal
rod 221 so as to be rotatable in the vertical direction. To this end, a hinge part
222a may be formed at an end of the first vertical rod 222. In the stored mode, the
first vertical rod 222 may rotate upward to be accommodated in the first vertical
rod accommodation groove 221b.
[0090] The first auxiliary vertical rod 223 may be slidably provided on the first vertical
rod 222. For example, the first auxiliary vertical rod 223 may slide in a longitudinal
direction of the first vertical rod 222 in a state in which at least a part of the
first auxiliary vertical rod 223 is inserted into the first auxiliary vertical rod
accommodation groove 222b of the first vertical rod 222. The first auxiliary vertical
rod 223 may include a fixing dial 223a. The fixing dial 223a may rotate in one direction
to bind the first auxiliary vertical rod 223 to the first vertical rod 222 or rotate
in the other direction to allow the first auxiliary vertical rod 223 to be slidable.
[0091] Meanwhile, the second pole 310 may include: the second horizontal rod 311 having
a second vertical rod accommodation groove therein and having one end rotatably connected
to the second bracket 350; the second vertical rod 312 connected to the other end
of the second horizontal rod 311 so as to be rotatable in the vertical direction and
having a second auxiliary vertical rod accommodation groove therein, the second vertical
rod 312 being configured to rotate to be accommodated in the second vertical rod accommodation
groove or exposed to the outside of the second horizontal rod 311; and the second
auxiliary vertical rod 313 slidably connected to the second vertical rod 312 and configured
to slide such that a length of the second auxiliary vertical rod 313 accommodated
in the second auxiliary vertical rod accommodation groove is adjusted. In other words,
the second pole 310 included in the second pole assembly 300 may have the same structure
as the first pole 220. Therefore, the repetitive descriptions of the identical configurations
will be omitted, and the descriptions of the identical configurations will be replaced
with the above-mentioned description.
[0092] FIG. 31 is a schematic exploded perspective view of the bracket module in FIG. 15,
FIG. 32 is a schematic exploded side view of the bracket module in FIG. 15, FIG. 33
is a schematic side view illustrating a state in which the housing and the bracket
module are separated in the awning for a vehicle in FIG. 15, and FIG. 34 is a schematic
cross-sectional view actual G-G' in FIG. 15.
[0093] The bracket module 500 may be provided on one surface of the housing 100. The bracket
module 500 may connect the housing 100 to the fixing object such as the roof rack
of the vehicle.
[0094] For example, the bracket module 500 may include: a first fixing bracket 510 slidably
inserted into one surface of the housing 100 and fixed to a predetermined position;
a second fixing bracket 520 including a first fixing part 521 detachably fixed to
one surface of the first fixing bracket 510 and a first bent part 522 bent and extending
from one end of the first fixing part 521 and detachably fastened to the fixing object;
and a third fixing bracket 530 including a second fixing part 531 detachably coupled
to one surface of the first fixing bracket 510 and a second bent part 532 bent and
extending from one end of the second fixing part 531 and configured to come into contact
with one surface of the first bent part 522.
[0095] The first fixing bracket 510 may be coupled to the housing 100, more specifically,
to one surface of the body 110 while sliding, and may be fixed to a predetermined
position after sliding and being coupled. To this end, the bracket guide slit 111b
may be provided in one surface of the body 110. For example, the first fixing bracket
510 may be fixed to one surface of the body 110 by means of fastening means 540. In
this case, the fastening means 540 may include a bolt 541 and a nut 542. A head of
the bolt 541 may be inserted into the bracket guide slit 111b of the housing 100 and
slide. When the bolt 541 moves along the bracket guide slit 111b and reaches a predetermined
position, the bolt 541 and the nut 542 may be fastened, such that the first fixing
bracket 510 may be fixed to the housing 100.
[0096] The fastening means 540 may be connected to an upper end of the first fixing bracket
510. For example, first insertion grooves 513 may be formed at the upper end of the
first fixing bracket 510, and the fastening means 540 may penetrate the first insertion
grooves 513 and be connected to the housing 100. In this case, one end of the first
insertion groove 513 may be opened.
[0097] The first fixing bracket 510 may include at least one spacer 511. The spacer 511
may protrude from one surface of the first fixing bracket 510. A fastening means arrangement
space may be defined between the housing 100 and one surface of the first fixing bracket
510 by the spacer 511. The spacer 511 may be formed by attaching a separate structure
to the first fixing bracket 510, causing a part of the first fixing bracket 510 to
protrude (see 511a), or bending a part of the first fixing bracket 510 (see 511b).
[0098] A housing support rail 512 may protrude from a lower end of one surface of the first
fixing bracket 510 that faces the housing 100, and the seating protrusion 111a of
the housing 100 may be seated on and caught by the housing support rail 512. The housing
support rail 512 may include a groove 512a into which the seating protrusion 111a
is inserted.
[0099] The second fixing bracket 520 may be a member connected to the fixing object and
include the first fixing part 521 detachably fixed to one surface of the first fixing
bracket 510, and the first bent part 522 bent and extending from one end of the first
fixing part 521 and detachably fastened to the fixing object. Therefore, the second
fixing bracket 520 may have a '

' shape as a whole. The first bent part 522 may have a relatively longer length than
the first fixing part 521 so that the first bent part 522 is easily fastened to the
fixing object.
[0100] The second fixing bracket 520 may include a rigidity reinforcing support 523. The
rigidity reinforcing support 523 may press the first fixing part 521 and the first
bent part 522, thereby preventing the first fixing part 521 and the first bent part
522 from being bent by an external force. The rigidity reinforcing support 523 may
be inserted into and coupled to at least one of the first fixing part 521 and the
first bent part 522. For example, the rigidity reinforcing support 523 may be inserted
into and coupled to a rigidity reinforcing support insertion groove 521a formed in
the first fixing part 521.
[0101] Meanwhile, third insertion grooves 521b may be formed at one end of the first fixing
part 521 which is not connected to the first bent part 522, and the third insertion
grooves 521b may correspond to the first insertion grooves 513. One end of the third
insertion groove 521b may be opened. In case that the second fixing bracket 520 is
connected to the fixing object, when the vertical arrangement direction of the second
fixing bracket 520 and the third fixing bracket 530 needs to be changed (see FIG.
35), as necessary, the fastening means 540 may be penetratively coupled to the third
insertion groove 521b and the first insertion groove 513.
[0102] The third fixing bracket 530 may include: the second fixing part 531 detachably coupled
to one surface of the first fixing bracket 510; and the second bent part 532 bent
and extending from one end of the second fixing part 531 and configured to come into
contact with one surface of the first bent part 522. The third fixing bracket 530
may have a '

' shape as a whole.
[0103] Second insertion grooves 531a may be formed at one side of the second fixing part
531 of the third fixing bracket 530 and have shapes corresponding to the first insertion
grooves 513. The fastening means 540 may penetrate the first insertion groove 513
and the second insertion groove 531a and be connected to the housing 100.
[0104] Hereinafter, a method of installing the housing 100 to the fixing object R by means
of the bracket module 500 will be described with reference further to FIG. 36. In
this case, an example will be described in which a roof rack provided on an upper
portion of the vehicle is used as the fixing object.
[0105] First, it is possible to perform a step of coupling the first fixing bracket 510
and the second fixing bracket 520 by means of fastening means such as screws or the
like. In this case, the first fixing bracket 510 and the second fixing bracket 520
may be coupled after the rigidity reinforcing support 523 is coupled to the second
fixing bracket 520. Alternatively, the rigidity reinforcing support 523 may be coupled
to the second fixing bracket 520 after the first fixing bracket 510 and the second
fixing bracket 520 are coupled.
[0106] Thereafter, it is possible to perform a step of temporarily fixing the second fixing
bracket 520 to the roof rack of the vehicle. The step of fixing the second fixing
bracket 520 to the roof rack of the vehicle may be performed by using the fastening
means such as screws or the like.
[0107] Next, the fastening means 540 may be inserted into the bracket guide slit 111b of
the housing 100. In this case, the head of the bolt 541 of the fastening means 540
may be coupled to the bracket guide slit 111b while sliding. The bolt 541 may slide
along the bracket guide slit 111b to a predetermined position at which the bracket
module 500 needs to be coupled.
[0108] Thereafter, the seating protrusion 111a of the housing 100 may be inserted into the
housing support rail 512 of the first fixing bracket 510. Next, the third fixing bracket
530 may be disposed to adjoin one surface of the first fixing bracket 510 and an upper
surface of the second fixing bracket 520. In this case, the bolt 541 may be disposed
to penetrate the first insertion groove 513 and the second insertion groove 531a.
Next, the first fixing bracket 510 may be coupled to the housing 100 by fastening
the nut 542 to the bolt 541.
[0109] Finally, the second fixing bracket 520 may be coupled to the roof rack by completely
fastening the fastening means of the second fixing bracket 520 that is temporarily
fixed to the roof rack.
[0110] After the awning 1' for a vehicle is fixed to the roof rack of the vehicle by the
above-mentioned method, the mode of the awning 1' for a vehicle may be switched to
the unfolded mode. Next, the first door 120 and the second doors 130 may be opened,
and then the first pole assembly 200 and the second pole assembly 300 may be unfolded.
[0111] The first horizontal rod 221 of the first pole assembly 200 may be rotated in the
horizontal direction, and then the first vertical rod 222 may be rotated downward.
Next, the first auxiliary vertical rod 223 may be slid to be fixed to the ground surface.
[0112] Likewise, the second horizontal rod 311 of the second pole assembly 300 may be rotated
in the horizontal direction, and then the second vertical rod 312 may be rotated downward.
Next, the second auxiliary vertical rod 313 may be slid to be fixed to the ground
surface.
[0113] The first pole assembly 200 and the second pole assembly 300 are unfolded, such that
the sun shelter 400 may be unfolded to the outside of the housing 100. In this case,
the sun shelter 400 may further include an auxiliary sun shelter 410. One side of
the auxiliary sun shelter 410 may be connected to the first pole assembly 200 or the
second pole assembly 300, and the other side of the auxiliary sun shelter 410 may
be provided as a free end. A user may connect the free end of the auxiliary sun shelter
410 to a hood part of the vehicle or other portions where the free end of the auxiliary
sun shelter 410 may be fixed. Then, the user may fix the auxiliary sun shelter 410
to the roof rack by using a separate rope 410 or the like.
[0114] As described above, the awning 1' for a vehicle according to the embodiment of the
present disclosure may include the bracket module 500 having a simple structure, such
that the awning 1' for a vehicle may be easily coupled to or separated from the fixing
object such as the roof rack of the vehicle.
[0115] In addition, the awning 1' for a vehicle according to the embodiment of the present
disclosure may include the housing 100 having a thin column shape, which makes it
possible to minimize a volume occupied when the awning 1 is loaded onto the vehicle.
In addition, the first pole 220 and the second pole 310 may be rotatably provided,
but the rotation axes of the first and second poles 220 and 310 may be spaced apart
from each other at a predetermined distance in the width direction of the housing,
