  • Patent number: 4607875
    Abstract: In order to provide a readily detachable sunscreen for any window, including the windshield, of a vehicle such as an airplane, car, or truck, a sheet of perforated mylar, preferably having a reflective coating on its outwardly facing surface, is integrated with a plurality of suction cup assemblies which are employed to attach the sunscreen to the interior surface of the window such that the mylar sheet is disposed closely spaced from and generally parallel to the surface. The suction cup assemblies include integral means for quickly and easily relieving the interior vacuum of the suction cups to permit easy removal of the sunscreen. The short edges of the sunscreen are reinforced with rigid strips to facilitate rolling the removed sunscreen into a convenient generally cylindrical package for temporary storage.
