Abstract
A portable sunshade or sunshade kit can include an expandable screen, a support rod, a connection spool, and/or a carry case. The expandable screen can have an outer wire loop that tensions a screen material and allows the screen to be folded into a collapsed configuration. The support rod can have a ductile core and a rubberized coating around the ductile core that grips a support object such as a chair or railing. A connection spool attached to the screen material can include a channel sized to at least partially receive the support rod. The connection spool can be adhered to the screen material. The carry case can be sized to receive the expandable screen in the collapsed configuration, the support rod, and the connection spool for ease of transport.
