Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a tilt and inner slide type sunroof device for an automobile.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, an opening is provided in a roof panel of a vehicle body, a slide panel is provided in the opening of the roof panel, and slides parallel to each other are provided on both sides of the opening of the roof panel along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body. The guide rails that guide the panel are provided, and the link brackets that are parallel to each other along the longitudinal direction of the guide rail are provided at the bottoms of both sides of the slide panel.The rear guide is movably provided on the guide rail. A tilt link for moving the rear end of the slide panel in the vertical direction is provided between the bracket and the rear guide, and a long hole parallel to the guide rail is provided in the rear guide, and one end of the tilt link is movably engaged with the long hole of the rear guide. , A tilt and inner slide type sunloupe in which the other end of the tilt link is rotatably connected to a link bracket. Apparatus is known.

[0003]

However, in the conventional tilt and inner slide type sunroof device,
Since the rear guide had multiple cam grooves for undulating the tilt link, the vertical width of the rear guide had to be set larger by the cam groove, and the slide panel, along with the link bracket, came out from the opening of the roof panel to the guide rail. Even if it descends toward the bottom, the space between the guide rail and the link bracket becomes wider due to the vertical width of the rear guide, and the vertical dimension of the entire device becomes large, so the ceiling of the car becomes low and the habitability in the vehicle interior is reduced. Became worse.

The object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems, and in the fully closed state in which the slide panel closes the opening of the roof panel, the first guide body is moved along the longitudinal direction of the guide rail of the vehicle body. By moving to the rear, the engaging pin of the tilt link is driven while engaging with the cam portion of the first guide body, and the first guide body moves rearward of the vehicle body with respect to the second guide body. The guide hole of the second guide body slides downward toward the guide rail while engaging the guide hole of the second guide body with the other end of the tilt link, and the second guide body moves downward toward the guide rail due to the weight of the slide panel. At the same time, the support body moves downward together with the second guide body toward the guide rail, and the slide panel descends together with the support body from the opening portion of the roof panel toward the guide rail. Large vertical width If there is no need to remove it, the distance between the guide rail and the support body becomes narrow to the width of the first guide body and the second guide body, the vertical size of the entire device is reduced, and the vehicle ceiling is low. Therefore, the comfortability of the passenger compartment is improved, and when the slide panel descends with respect to the opening of the roof panel, the guide body moves to the rear of the vehicle body along the longitudinal direction of the guide rail together with the first guide body. At the same time that the guide pin moves the first engaging portion of the slide member rearward of the vehicle body along the longitudinal direction of the guide member,
The slide member slides rearward of the vehicle body along the longitudinal direction of the guide member by the guide pin of the guide, and the second engaging portion of the slide member causes the tilt link to extend along the longitudinal direction of the guide rail via the engaging pin. (EN) Provided is a sunroof device which can be moved rearward of a vehicle body and regulate the backlash of the vehicle body relative to the first guide of the tilt link in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body by a second engaging portion of a slide member. ..

[0005]

[0006]

The first guide body movably provided on the guide rails arranged on both sides of the opening of the roof panel from the position of the fully closed state where the slide panel closes the opening provided on the roof panel of the vehicle body. When it moves to the rear of the vehicle body along the guide rail, the engagement pin at one end of the tilt link between the first guide body and the second guide bodies provided on the support bodies arranged at the lower portions on both sides of the slide panel is moved. Following the engagement with the cam portion formed on the first guide body, the first guide body separates from the second guide body toward the rear of the vehicle body and is guided by the second guide body. The hole slides downward toward the guide rail while engaging the other end of the tilt link, the second guide body moves downward toward the guide rail due to the weight of the slide panel, and at the same time, the support body moves to the second side. Moves downward along with the guide body toward the guide rail , Sliding panel is lowered toward the guide rail from the opening of the roof panel with the support.

Further, when the slide panel descends with respect to the opening of the roof panel, the dielectric disposed in front of the first guide moves together with the first guide toward the rear of the vehicle body along the guide rail, and at the same time, the dielectric. A guide pin provided on the slide member moves the first engaging portion formed on the slide member to the rear of the vehicle body along the guide member provided on the lower portion of the support,
The slide member slides toward the rear of the vehicle body along the guide member by the guide pin of the guide, and the second engaging portion formed on the slide member causes the tilt link to move rearwardly of the vehicle body along the guide rail via the engaging pin. Move to.
