The present invention provides a roll-up shade apparatus for a vehicle with enhanced assemblability. This roll-up shade apparatus includes a shade that opens and closes an internal opened part of a roof; a retractor that rolls up the shade from a base-end thereof; second wire drums disposed in coaxial with the retractor, a wire being wound around each of the second wire drums that winds up or feeds the wire together with an opening/closing of the shade; elastic members that engage the retractor with the second wire drums. The retractor includes a pipe retractor and cap retractors in a cylindrical shape each having a bottom, which are fit inside the pipe retractor, and each of the elastic members is installed inside the cap retractor in such a manner that one end of the elastic member is engaged with one of the second wire drums and the other end of the elastic member is engaged with the bottom of the cap retractor, and each of the cap retractors locked to each opening end portion of the pipe retractor so as to rotate together with the pipe retractor.

Roll-up shade apparatus for a vehicle

There is provided a roll-up shade apparatus which can ensure a larger open dimension of a shade. The roll-up shade apparatus comprises a pair of first wire drums which travel and rotate in a wire wind-up direction or a wire feed direction when the shade is moved in the open direction or the closing direction, a pair of second wire drums which are coupled to a retractor so as to be rotatable together with the retractor, and which are rotatably provided at both sides of the retractor coaxially therewith so that a wire wind-up direction becomes opposite to a shade wind-up direction of the retractor, and a pair of wires suspended between the respective first and second wire drums so that the second wire drums rotate in a wire feed direction or in a wire wind-up direction when the first wire drums rotate in the wire wind-up direction or in the wire feed direction, respectively.

Roll-up shade apparatus for vehicle

A roll sunshade device, which includes a screen for shadowing an inner opening of a roof of a vehicle, a rotating body which is disposed ahead of the inner opening or behind the inner opening in a front-rear direction of the vehicle and rotates freely around an axis in a vehicle width direction, a turning member which is disposed at a predetermined distance from the rotating body in the front-rear direction of the vehicle and rotates freely around an axis in the vehicle width direction, and two circular wires which are disposed on both sides of the inner opening in the vehicle width direction, respectively and hung between the rotating body and the turning member, in which both edge portions of the screen in the vehicle width direction are supported by the two circular wires, respectively, and when the screen is slid in the front-rear direction of the vehicle from a state where the screen shadows the inner opening, the screen is folded along an outer circumferential surface of the turning member.
