ABSTRACT:
An automobile window sunshade having a particularly simple structure and capable of easily being folded into a compact configuration for storage is provided. The sunshade comprises a single elongated loop of a thin strip of spring-like material covered by a sheet of one or more layers of a flexible material. The shape of the elongated loop can vary from a generally rectangular shape with slightly rounded corners to an oval or generally elliptical shape. One or both of the two major surfaces of the sheet are adapted to reflect light and heat radiation from the sun. In its normally open configuration, the sunshade is placed against the inside surface of an automobile windshield or window with a reflective surface facing outward. The single elongated fabric-covered loop of the sunshade can be easily twisted and folded into a compact configuration consisting of a series of smaller concentric loops and fabric layers. The sunshade may additionally comprise a means for maintaining the compact configuration for storage.
