ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a window tinting apparatus (10) which comprises an outer window (16A) and an inner window (16B) having a window cavity (16C) there between. The window tinting apparatus (10) further comprises a first primary polarized panel (12A) securely affixed to the window (16A, 16B). The first primary polarized panel (12A) comprises a plurality of first primary polarized panel longitudinal polarization lines (12AA) therein. The window tinting apparatus (10) further comprises a secondary polarized panel (14) slidably mounted within the window cavity (16C). The secondary polarized panel (14) comprises a plurality of secondary polarized panel longitudinal polarization lines (14B). The secondary polarized panel (14) further comprises a secondary polarized panel ledge (14A) attached at a distal edge. The secondary polarized panel longitudinal polarization lines (14B) and the first primary polarized panel longitudinal polarization lines (12AA) are parallel to one another. The window tinting apparatus (10) further comprises a motor (18) which comprises a motor cam (18A) positioned adjacent to and contacting with the secondary polarized panel ledge (14A). When the at least one motor control panel ON/OFF switch (18CA) is primarily activated by a user, the motor (18) turns the motor cam (18A) to a pre-determined position where the secondary polarized panel longitudinal polarization lines (14B) and the first primary polarized panel longitudinal polarization lines (12AA) are parallel and overlaying or striping each other functioning as window tinting.
