Mosquito net

Description:

The invention relates to an enclosing insect screen a bed or the like made of a light- and air-permeable, e.g. textile material web with sufficient small openings, e.g. sufficiently small mesh size.

Known insect protection nets regularly require a more or less complicated support frame.

For example, DE-GbmS 83 21 403 describes a mosquito tent made of a fine-meshed sheet of material that forms the tent walls , for indoor accommodation and in particular above Beds known, being two arch-shaped, at their apex Crossing rods that are spanned by the length of fabric are and lie with their ends approximately in a common plane. This is to ensure that it is at The lowest possible weight and the smallest possible dimensions offer significantly better protection against vermin than

this was the case with previously known mosquito tents. Furthermore, this mosquito tent should easily be carried by travelers and can be used without the use of additional facilities.

DE-GbmS 83 21 238 discloses a device for shielding of the volume of space surrounding one or more lying surfaces against the penetration of flies known, the two A-shaped or Contains similarly designed support frames which are spatially spaced one behind the other and in their crest area are mechanically connected to one another by at least one longitudinal rod, with at least one leg that is oriented in the same way each support frame an arm of a U-shaped bracket is pivotable and mounted so that its longitudinal strut is at least extends approximately parallel to the longitudinal rod connecting the two support frames to one another, and wherein the so formed Unit carries a net completely surrounding the lying surface.

The production costs for such known insect protection nets are therefore expensive because of the necessary support frames. Since the insect protection net is not required during the entire season, at least in our latitudes, it must be during which can be stowed in a space-saving manner in the meantime. The respective support frame is disadvantageous because of its bulkiness. If it is collapsible, special mechanisms such as joints or the like are again required.

The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a more cost-effective An insect protection net that is easy to manufacture in its position of use and can be accommodated in a space-saving manner to propose.

This object is achieved in an insect protection net of the generic type with the feature of the characterizing part of claim 1. The insect protection net according to the invention thus manages completely without a support frame. It only requires a few fastening points on the ceiling for its arrangement in the position of use above a bed or the like. It can simply be hung up on these and easily removed again. The insect protection net can also, since it has no special support frame, simply be washed, for example like a curtain, without the need for special handling, such as detaching it from a support frame or the like. The erfindungsgffimäß insect protection net also offers great security, since it closes the lounge in which the bed or the like is located on all sides, including the ceiling, so that between the wall material web sections and the ceiling despite the flexibility of the insect protection net in its entirety no gaps for insects such as flies, gnats or the like to slip through. It is also easy to adapt the insect protection net according to the invention to the respective bed size or the like. The same applies to the shape of the base of the bed to be spanned or the like. The sky material web section only needs to be cut accordingly with regard to its shape and its area size.

The insect protection net according to the invention further developed according to claim 2 represents a special embodiment for a usual in its base rectangular bed, with a minimum of suspension means are sufficient if they are in Area of the four corners of the sky material path section provided because the sky material web section is sufficiently tensioned when the hooks intended for suspension are on are attached at a suitable distance from the ceiling.

With the measure of claim 3 it is ensured that one side, whose wall material web section is divided, easily into the lounge within the insect protection net can lie, so for example easily through the side Pushing away a partial material web section can get into the bed standing under the insect screen. The overlap of the two partial material web sections ensures that the insect protection net is in the closed state here as well no insects can enter the lounge within the insect protection net.

According to claim 4, especially if the closure means, such as the Velcro fastener, run over the entire height, one achieve an effective seal against the penetration of insects.

The measure of claim 5 ensures access to the lounge within by the possibility of hanging up of the insect protection net for a longer period of time, for example for making beds.

The ruffle band provided according to the claim is not only used as Jewelry, i.e. the aesthetic impression of the insect protection net; with it, a slight sagging of the sky material web section can also be achieved something to be concealed.

Further objects, features, advantages and possible applications of the present invention emerge from the following Description of an exemplary embodiment based on the accompanying drawing. All of them are described and / or figurative Characteristics shown on their own or in any meaningful combination also form the subject matter of the present invention regardless of their summary in the claims or their reference.

The only figure, seen at an angle from above, illustrates a the invention exhibiting insect protection net.

The illustrated insect protection net 1 for enclosing a bed od. The insect protection net 1 has a material web section 2 forming the sky, the area size of which corresponds at least approximately to the base area of the bed to be enclosed or the like. In the case shown, the sky material web section 2 is rectangular. At its four corners, the canopy material web section 2 carries loops 4 for hanging on a ceiling or the like above the bed and holding the canopy material web section 2 in a substantially tensioned state on the ceiling when the fastening hooks on the ceiling are in the required distance. Instead of the loops 4, straps for tying to ceiling joists have also proven particularly useful, since these can be used to easily correct the insect protection net 1. The front and longitudinal outer edges 5 of the headlining material web section 2 are essentially perpendicular to the floor on which the bed or the like is standing, depending material web sections 6, which form the walls of a lounge in which the bed or the like. like. stands. As a result, the lounge is hermetically sealed. The front wall material web section 6 is divided, starting from the headlining material web section 2 up to its lower end, into two partial material web sections ^{6 ′, 6 ′ 1.} The two partial material web sections 6 ', 6 ·' partially overlap in the middle. This creates access to the lounge within the insect protection net 1, which can be used, for example, to

At the same time, the sufficiently large overlap area of the two partial material web sections 6 ', 6 "ensures a good seal against the ingress of insects at this point; this can be further improved if the two parts -Material web section 6 ', 6 "in the overlap area a closure means, for example a Velcro fastener. On the two front partial material web sections 6 ·, 6 ¹¹ are each attached a band 7, with which the respective partial material ^{web section 6 ·, 6 11} can be tied up so that the lounge within the insect protection net 1 is accessible for a longer period of time, for example to make beds. Such straps 7 can also be provided on the other sides of the insect protection net 1. The straps 7 are in the illustrated embodiment for the sake of simplicity in the seam between sky material web section 2 and wall material web absc Sewn in 6 or 6 ", 6". In the area of the outer edges 5 of the sky material web section 2 and the upper edges of the wall material web sections 6, a circumferential frill band 8 is provided, which can be attached to the ceiling when the insect protection net 1 is hung on the ceiling.
