  • Patent number: 5154473
    Abstract: A sun screen and windbreaker panel for a chair in which the panel is at the back of the chair. An overhead panel part can be used as a sun shade. The panel in one embodiment has a front surface provided with an inverted pocket which fits over the back of the chair. Bungee cords are used to couple the lower margins of the panel with the front of the chair. The panel has a resilient rod, in a bent condition near and along the outer periphery of the panel so that the panel will be stretched. The panel can be rectangular and can have a pair of resilient cross rods greater in length than the distance between the diagonal ends of the panel so that the rods, when in end pockets on the panel, will stretch the panel. In another embodiment, the panel is rolled up in the same manner as a window shade and pulled outwardly from a shaft to a predetermined length. Tie-down devices anchor the panel over a frame coupled to the back of a chair, and the shaft of the panel is rotatably mounted on the chair.
