Abstract:
1. A sunshade device configured to shield a window, comprising: a pair of rails disposed so as to have a gradually decreasing spacing therebetween at least at a part from a proximal end toward a distal end thereof; a windup device disposed between proximal ends of said pair of rails and including a windup shaft supported so as to rotate about an axis; a shade including a short side edge and a long side edge opposed to each other and configured to be drawn from and housed in said windup device, said long side edge being attached to said windup shaft; a stay attached to the short side edge of said shade; a pair of shafts respectively inserted into both ends of said stay so as to move along a longitudinal direction thereof and rotatably support the stay; a pair of runners respectively provided so as to move along said pair of rails and coupled to said pair of shafts; and a rotation mechanism including a protrusion and a guide recess for guiding the protrusion, one of which is provided on an inner peripheral portion of said stay and the other of which is provided on an outer peripheral portion of said shaft, and causing said stay to change a position thereof by rotating relative to said shaft, through sliding contact of said protrusion with said guide recess, upon reception of a force resulting from the movement of the shafts along the longitudinal direction of said stay due to a change of the spacing between said pair of rails as said pair of runners move along said pair of rails, wherein said stay is provided with a cover body covering gaps between the upper window located on a distal end side of said pair of rails and said stay in a state in which said shade is drawn.
