Definitions

  • This invention relates to cover apparatus and methods of sheltering objects from over exposure to environmental elements such as the sun and damaging hail storms. More particularly, the present invention relates to portable cover apparatus and methods for sheltering objects as noted above. Even more particularly, the present invention relates to portable shade cover apparatus and methods of sheltering vehicles from over exposure to the sun and of sheltering humans from damaging sunlight when engaged in outdoor activi t ies .
  • the unpredictable nature of the environment has caused humans to find shelter from its elements such as the rain, snow and sun.
  • the shelters traditionally are permanent such as a house for humans and garages for personal property, such as the vehicles used by humans for transportation. Since humans tend to move about in daily life, shelter from the environment is still desireable, i.e. an umbrella provides a suitable shelter from rain or sun, the vehicle's cab provides better shelter than an umbrella while moving about, a tent or canopy may provide the necessary shelter if stopping outdoors for recreation purposes, or another permanent shelter may be used to work in during the day. If stopping for recreation purposes, dedicated tent shelters are used by humans to shelter from the sun or rain, or other environmental elements.
  • the transportation means also needs shelter, so permanent and temporary tents have been provided for these transportation means, be it animal or vehicular.
  • the shelter desired by humans for themselves or for their transportation means is not always provided due to the combination of the shelter's bulkiness, heavy weight. awkwardness of assembly and oftentimes a high cost.
  • humans are continually searching for portable shel ter to cover themselves or their transportation means in todays mobile society.
  • the efforts expended in solving a portable shelter problem are typically frustrated by redesign of a particular transportation means, thereby making the shelter solution obsolete.
  • the duality of the portable shelter problem is compounded, i.e. there is still a need for a portable shelter for the human and a portable shelter for the transportation means.
  • U.S. Patent Nos. 553,735, 2,515,993, E,605,778 and 3,304,035 pertain to umbrella type structures including fabric cover in combination with mechanical parts that articulate to permit occupancy of persons beneath the umbrella.
  • structure that allows articulation of the umbrella member about an anchor object is that structure that allows articulation of the umbrella member about an anchor object. While these patents solve a shelter problem, their means of anchoring is for a particular end use device, generally requiring a tubular structure, such as those found in bicycles and carts, or the like.
  • U.S. Patent Nos. 2,798,501, 3,036,583, 3,463,174, 4,834, 128 and 4,886,083 are example solutions of portable vehicle covers teaching the use of the vehicle's weight to anchor a framework and cover combination that completely encloses the vehicle in a cocoon-like manner.
  • the framework/cover structure of these solutions while providing adequate sheltering for an enclosed vehicle, is viewed as awkward for storing and generally fail to provide an appealing portable cover structure.
  • the enclosed nature is not particularly appealing when shading the vehicle from the sun is the only objective of a user. In all likelihood, a high cost is associated with the cocoon-like structure that outweighs serious consideration in using.
  • Another disadvantage is its dedicated nature for vehicular use, see U.S. Patent No. 2,480,509 where the use of a vehicle is taught to anchor a side tent structure for human use. See also the CARBANA protection system currently being marketed by Carbana Inc, from Syosset New York.
  • U.S. Patent Nos. 2,508,757 and 4,655,236 teach portable cover apparatus that shelters a vehicle, but lack versatility in use for other than vehicular application in that a base for the mast is adapted for attaching to a particular part of a vehicle.
  • the parts of the vehicle are the front and rear bumper, while in the case of U.S. Patent No. 4,655,236, the part of the vehicle is the body of the tire to which the base structure must be attached.
  • the '236 Patent specifically teaches away from mast base structures that have platforms onto which the vehicle must be driven to anchor or support the masts.
  • the '236 Patent does teach the advantage of having the masts at an incline, there is no mention of having arcuate adjustment coacting with the telescoping mast to simultaneously accommodate different cover sizes at different heights. Also the multiple parts that have to be assembled to form the mast base presents a certain degree of complexity that detracts from the portable nature for quick assembly and use. Further, the attachment method of the '236 Patent lacks appeal in that a user appears to have to wrestle a traditionally dirty vehicle tire to install the cover, which upper part of the tire is not readily accessible in many vehicles.
  • a need is seen to exist for a portable cover apparatus that is easily setup without repeated assemblage of parts and that can be anchored by mere placement of weighted objects on platform base portions.
  • a need is seen to exist for a portable vehicle shade system that meets the fast setup objective of the foregoing by driving onto a platform and that can accommodate a plurality of cover sizes.
  • a need is seen to exist for a portable vehicle shade system that meets the fast setup objective, that is provided with alternate anchor means that allows the vehicle being driven off to form an outdoor shade structure.
  • a need is seen to exist for a portable vehicle cover system that meets the foregoing and that is sized to fit in a carrying bag in acceptable luggage-type or duffel bag sizes to promote portability.
  • the primary object of the present invention is to provide a portable cover apparatus that is primarily suited for vehicular shelter applications but that can also be readily utilized for human outdoor shelter applications.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable cover apparatus that is easily setup without repeated assemblage of parts and that can be anchored by mere placement of weighted objects on platform base portions.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable vehicle shade system that meets the fast setup objective of the foregoing by driving onto a platform and that can accommodate a plurality of cover sizes.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable vehicle shade system that meets the fast setup objective, that is provided with alternate anchor means that allows the vehicle being driven off to form an outdoor shade structure.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable vehicle cover system that meets the foregoing and that is sized to fit in a carrying bag in acceptable luggage-type or duffel bag sizes to promote portability.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a portable shade apparatus that meets the foregoing fast setup and versatile base features of having both platform and stake type of anchoring and that allows use of a wide variety of cover shapes.
  • a related object of the present invention is to provide a portable cover apparatus for a vehicle that makes use of traditional vehicle rooftop flanges for mounting in a piggy-back manner.

  • Platform 111 is preferably designed having a width d1 such that when base means 110a is positioned forward of a tire T, mast means 110b is offset away from side of vehicle V to prevent interference and inadvertent contact with the paint and other finished body parts of vehicle V, see Figs. 2 and 5.
  • base member 110a also includes a mast attachment portion 112 having compensating means in the form of arcuately arranged holes 112a and pivot hole 112b, for coacting with mast member 110b to accommodate placement of a variety of fixed shaped cover means over an object being sheltered.
  • cover means 130 as shown in Fig. 4 is a rectangularly shaped cover means having a length 1 and a width w. In a vehicular application, width w would probably remain constant, typically seven feet, while the length 1 would vary depending on whether a van, a pick-up, a sub-compact, compact, medium or luxury vehicle is to be sheltered, typically twelve (12) feet to eighteen (18) feet.
  • FIGS. 5 and 6 show mast upper end portion 114 capable of being telescopically adjusted, as indicated by arrow A1, and being secured by a retaining pin 115.
  • Mast bottom end portion 113 which is pivotally coupled to pivot hole 112b using pivot bolt PB, is capable of being arcuately adjusted about holes 112b, as indicated by arrows A, and being securedly attached, using secure bo l t SB , to a corresponding one of the plural i ty of arcuatel y arranged holes 112a upon reaching the desired height.
  • the articulation sequence may be reversed at user's discretion.
  • the arcuate angular spacing is approximately 15 degrees to get plus/minus 45 degrees from a 12 o'clock position of mast member 110b.
  • the coacting feature of base member 110a with mast member 110b on every mast means 110, when arranged with other mast means 110, as shown in Fig. 1, can accommodate many height settings h of a particularly sized cover means 130.
  • the arcuate compensating holes 112a are particularly useful when mast means 110 are placed inward of corner eyelets 131 of cover means 130, see Fig.1. A placement of mast means 110 directly beneath a corner eyelet 131 at different height settings, would only require telescoping adjustment of mast member 110b, leaving bolt SB set at 12 o'clock arcuate adjustment position, see Fig. 9.
