ABSTRACT:
A protective cover for a motor vehicle, particularly for a motorcar, in the form of a strip of a length commensurate with the length of the motorcar and of a width slightly smaller than the width of the baggage compartment of the motorcar. The cover includes a number of stiff rectangular panels connected along their long sides by flexible joints, which permits the cover to be folded into a close stack, to be stored inside the baggage compartment of the motorcar and to be pulled out and to be stretched over the body of the motorcar. The strip is provided with a mechanism for attaching its near end to the inside of the baggage compartment and a mechanism for attaching its far end to the front of the motorcar. The cover further includes two lengths of strip or string having their two ends attached to points proximate two corners of each pair of panels, the strip being of a length commensurate with the distance between the points on the panels in the fully stretched state of the cover. The cover further includes elastic members connecting the centers of each two lengths of strip or string adapted to pull the two strips or strings towards the center line of the cover and thereby pull each pair of panels into mutual contact and all the panels of the cover into a close stack.
