Compact fold windshield sunshade

Abstract

A windshield sunshade for placement behind the windshield of an automobile, truck, boat or other vehicle that blocks and reflects hot radiation from the sun that otherwise greatly overheats a vehicle interior during hot sunny days. The sunshade is made up of connected and hinged planar parallelograms each having spaced parallel side edges but with the vertically extended edges at an angle relative to the generally horizontal upper and lower edges other than perpendicular. Other than at overall sunshade outer side edges and top and bottom edges the parallelograms are joined in horizontal tiers and side by side in vertical columns. There is a top center cut out to accomodate rear view mirror structure with part of the windshield sunshade still positionable to extend between the back of the rear view mirror and the windshield. The vertically tiered and joined parallelogram structure of heavy paper, plastic or cardboard lends itself to being folded and unfolded, as needed, between a very compact storage state to an expanded use state with the parallelogram structure expandable and contractable to fit window positions and snappable through a flat planar state between joined parallelogram segments to a reverse crease bent position holding state.
