Definitions

  • the invention relates to an awning with a wall-mounted fabric shaft, on which one end of the awning fabric is wound, a drop bar to which the other end of the awning fabric is attached, and at least two support arms, which at one end near the fabric shaft on approximately vertical axes are stored and at their other end carry the drop bar via a joint and which can be moved under the action of a spring force while simultaneously rotating the fabric shaft from a position close to the wall into an exposed position and from this by rotating the fabric shaft against the spring force into the position close to the wall.
  • the support arms are designed as articulated articulated arms, the inner lever arm of which is articulated to a wall bearing and the outer arm of which is connected to the inner arm via an articulated joint.
  • a tension spring which forms the spring force and is supported at one end in the arm. With the other end of the tension spring wire ropes are connected, which go beyond the kink are articulated and attached to the outer arm.
  • the arrangement is such that the spring force pulls the articulated arm into the extended position and tensions the awning fabric when the fabric shaft is rotated and the drop bar is raised.
  • the fabric shaft is turned in the opposite direction and the articulated arms are buckled against the spring force.
  • Such an articulated arm awning has the disadvantage that when the awning is raised, the articulated arms are kinked in every intermediate position and - since they are arranged below the awning fabric - protrude into the space spanned by the awning fabric. This not only results in an unattractive appearance, but above all an insufficient headroom combined with a risk of injury at the kink. Furthermore, since the articulated arms are constantly under considerable spring preload, a risk to persons can arise if, for example, the awning cover breaks. Even a small tear or when a seam opens, this can cause the awning to tear open over the entire width and then one or both articulated arms spring open, covering a large area and endangering every person standing in this area. A similar hazard can arise during assembly work, especially when covering the awning.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an awning so that the headroom below the awning less affected ver the risk to people wrestles and in particular a more stable construction is obtained in every position.
  • each support arm is formed from a telescope
  • the outer tube is attached to the wall and the inner tube carries the drop bar and that when unwinding the cloth shaft by means of the spring force effective between the outer and the inner tube and arranged within the same is extendable.
  • the awning according to the invention does not have articulated arms, but rather telescopic tubes which have a predominantly linear adjustment path. So that the space below the awning is less restricted in each intermediate layer of the same, so that you can move freely and safely underneath the awning. Even in cases in which the telescopic arm is extended under the action of the spring force, z. B. during assembly, covering or tearing the awning cover, the telescope describes a smaller area, so that the probability that a person standing in the area of the awning is hit when extending is less. From a manufacturing point of view, there is the advantage that the support arms cannot be formed from specially manufactured hollow profiles, as with articulated arm awnings, but from commercially available tubular profiles. In terms of design and function, there is the advantage that the support arms are not interrupted by a joint or the like, even in the extended state, so that they have a substantially greater flexural rigidity.
  • each telescope consists of three tubes, two of which can be extended one after the other.
  • the spring force can be realized in any way, but preferably by means of a gas pressure spring or a coil spring.
  • the spring is supported at one end in the wall-fixed outer tube and is provided at its other end with a roller over which a rope is guided, which has one end in the wall-fixed tube and with its other end is attached to the inner end of the inner tube.
  • the force is accordingly transmitted from the outer, wall-fixed tube to the inner tube and from this via driver or the like to the surrounding tube.
  • This design has the further advantage that a translation of the spring travel is achieved by appropriate design of the roller, so that the spring travel only has to be part of the opening length.
  • Another advantage is the fully encapsulated design, which protects all functional components against the weather.
  • the spring extends in the position of the support arm near the wall from the outer tube to the area of the outer end of the retracted inner tube.
  • a preferred embodiment is characterized in that the joints of the support arms on the drop bar and the bearing axes of the support arms on the wall form the corner points of a trapezoid in each position of the awning, and that the support arms are inclined to one another starting from the bearing axes.
  • the area spanned by the trapezium increases from a minimum value in the retracted position to one greatest value in the exhibited position, whereby the spring force ensures both the pivoting of the support arms around the approximately vertical bearing axes on the wall and the extension of the telescope.
  • the support arms enclose an angle of a few degrees with the wall in the position of the drop bar close to the wall.
  • a building wall 1 or a lintel of a building opening can be seen, to which at least two wall supports 2 are fastened.
  • a support tube 3 is arranged in the wall bearings, on which two bearing brackets 4 for a cloth shaft 5 are fastened.
  • the awning fabric 6 is wound with one end onto the fabric shaft 5.
  • the cloth shaft can be rotated by means of a rod, not shown, which is suspended in an eyelet 7, and a gear 8.
  • support arms 10 are mounted on bearings, which are pivotable in a vertical plane to adjust the inclination of the awning.
  • an adjusting pin 11 on the support arm which is supported on the wall bearing 2.
  • the other end of the awning fabric 6 is attached to a drop bar 12 which is received by the free ends of the support arms 10.
  • Each support arm 10 is formed by a telescope, which in the embodiment shown consists of three tubes, namely an outer tube 13, an intermediate tube 14 and an inner tube 15.
  • the outer tube 13 is at its end near the wall by means of eyes 31 on an approximately vertical bearing pin 28 mounted on the intermediate piece 16 stored at 9.
  • a spring 17 is arranged within the telescope, which in the exemplary embodiment shown is designed as a gas pressure spring. It is supported with its end 18 near the wall within the outer telescopic tube 13, while at its end remote from the wall it has a roller 20 carried by a piston rod 19. The roller 20 is wrapped in a rope 21, which in turn is fastened at its end 22 to the end of the outer tube 13 near the wall, while the other end 23 is fixed at the inner end of the inner telescopic tube 15.
  • the force of the spring 17 via the wire rope 21 is initially effective on the inner telescopic tube 15 when the fabric shaft 5 is rotated, so that this and thus the drop bar 12 is extended under constant tension of the awning fabric 6.
  • this telescopic tube is extended via a driver 24 at the inner end of the inner telescopic tube and a stop 25 at the outer end of the intermediate tube 14 until the stop 26 arranged at its inner end against the arranged at the outer end of the outer tube 13 stops 27.
  • the outer surfaces of the stops 24 and 26 and the inner surfaces of the stops 25 and 27 also form sliding surfaces for the telescopic tubes 14, 15. They are therefore preferably made of a plastic with sliding bearing properties.
  • FIG. 2 shows the retracted and the extended position of the awning in the preferred embodiment.
  • the bearing axles 28 near the wall and the joints 29 of the support arms form the corner points of a trapezoid, the shortest side of which is formed by the (imaginary) connecting line of the joints 29.
  • the support arms 10 are inclined to each other with their ends engaging on the joints 29 and form an angle of only a few degrees with the wall 1 in the retracted position of the awning.
  • each support arm 10 When the awning is raised, the gas pressure springs located in each support arm 10 cause both the pivoting movement of the support arms about the bearing axes 28 and the extension of the inner telescopic tube 15 and the intermediate tube 14, so that the awning finally unwinds into the position shown in dashed lines when the fabric shaft is unwound reached.
