Protective device for a loading space
View Patent ↗A protective device for a loading space of a motor vehicle has at least one sheet-like structure that can be transferred alternatively into a vertical or into a horizontal protective position. The sheet-like structure has at least reduced light permeability in its horizontal protective position and increased light permeability in its vertical protective position. It is important that the sheet-like structure is configured as a spacer structure.
1. A protective device for a loading space of a motor vehicle, the protective device comprising:
at least one sheet-shaped structure being transferable alternatively into a vertical protective position or into an approximately horizontal protective position, said sheet-shaped structure having reduced light permeability in said horizontal protective position and increased light permeability in said vertical protective position, said sheet-shaped structure configured as a spacer structure, said spacer structure having two parallel, textile surface structure sections and spacers connecting said textile surface structure sections said textile surface structure sections having apertures formed therein at least in some sections, said spacer structure being constructed so that respective ones of said apertures of said two textile surface structure sections are congruent in said vertical protective position and are not congruent in said horizontal protective position.
2. The protective device according to claim 1 , wherein a first of said textile surface structure sections is formed from a light, reflective material and a second of said textile surface structure sections is formed from a dark material.
3. The protective device according to claim 1 , further comprising a housing into which said sheet-shaped structure can be at least one of rolled up, compressed and folded in a not-in-use position.
4. The protective device according to claim 1 , wherein an orthogonal distance between said two textile surface structure sections is in a range of 1.5 mm to 2.5 mm.
5. The protective device according to claim 1 , wherein said sheet-shaped structure has at least one of warp threads, weft threads, and spacers made of yarn.
