Abstract

PCT No. PCT/DE92/00155 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 27, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 27, 1992 PCT Filed Feb. 25, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO92/15218 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 17, 1992.In the case of an umbrella, in particular a stand umbrella, sunshade, garden umbrella and the like, having a framework, a roof construction and an umbrella roof, in which the roof rods (5) are articulated on a pole part (2), which is displaceable telescopically in relation to the stand tube (1) and bears a crown (3), and displaceable along the stand tube (1) is a runner (4), on which supporting struts (6) articulated on the roof rods (5) act in a jointed manner, crown (3) and runner (4) moving oppositely upon opening and closing of the umbrella, for simpler opening of the umbrella and tensioning of the umbrella roof there is provided an auxiliary strut (8), which is jointedly arranged above the runner (4) between umbrella pole (1) and at least one roof rod (5), and the runner (4) is provided with a locking device (12), by which said runner can be arrested in its upper position and the umbrella roof can be tensioned.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Schirm, insbesondere Standschirm, Großsonnenschirm, Gartenschirm und dergleichen mit einem Gestell, einer Dachkonstruktion und einem Schirmdach, bei dem die Dachstangen an einem zu dem Standrohr teleskopartig verschiebbaren, eine Krone tragenden Stockteil angelenkt sind und längs des Standrohres ein Läufer verschiebbar ist, an dem an den Dachstangen angelenkte Stützstreben gelenkig angreifen, wobei Krone und Läufer sich beim Öffnen und Schließen des Schirmes gegenläufig bewegen.The invention relates to a screen, in particular a parasol, large parasol, garden umbrella and the like with a frame, a roof structure and a canopy, in which the roof poles are articulated to a pole part which can be displaced telescopically to the standpipe and carries a crown and a runner along the standpipe is displaceable, on the support struts articulated on the roof rods, the crown and rotor move in opposite directions when opening and closing the screen.

Es sind Schirme als Garten- oder Marktschirme der vorstehenden Art bekannt, bei denen die Bewegungen des Schirmstockes und des Läufers in Abhängigkeit voneinander durch zwangsgebundene Mittel erfolgen, z.B. mittels einer Gewindespindel, wobei der Läufer mit dem Standrohr mittels eines über eine Umlenkrolle geführten flexiblen Zuggliedes verbunden ist. Weiterhin sind Gartenschirme oder dergleichen bekannt, bei denen die Bewegungen der Krone und des Läufers in gegenseitiger Abhängigkeit voneinander gegenläufig erfolgen. Hierbei ist die Konstruktion so ausgebildet, daß bei der Gegenläufigkeit der Schwerpunkt der Dachkonstruktion mindestens annähernd auf gleicher Höhe bleibt, so daß für das Öffnen und das Schließen des Schirmes nur so kleine Kräfte aufzuwenden sind, daß sie manuell ohne weiteres aufgebracht werden können. Eine solche Schirmbauart hat den Nachteil, daß man das Hochschieben des Läufers von Hand bewirken kann, nicht aber das Spannen des Schirmdaches, dessen Kraftaufwand ein Vielfaches der für das Öffnen des Schirme aufzuwendenden Kraft erfordert. Ein solcher Schirm ist nicht wind- und sturmsicher.Umbrellas are known as garden or market umbrellas of the above type, in which the movements of the umbrella stick and the runner are dependent on one another by means of restraint, for example by means of a threaded spindle, the runner being connected to the standpipe by means of a flexible tension member guided over a deflection roller is. Furthermore, garden umbrellas or the like are known in which the movements of the crown and the rotor take place in opposite directions, mutually dependent. Here, the construction is designed so that in the opposite direction, the center of gravity of the roof structure remains at least approximately at the same height, so that only small forces have to be applied for opening and closing the screen that they can be applied manually without further notice can. Such an umbrella design has the disadvantage that the runner can be pushed up by hand, but not the tensioning of the umbrella roof, the effort of which requires a multiple of the force required to open the umbrella. Such an umbrella is not wind and storm proof.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, einen Standschirm, insbesondere einen Großsonnenschirm, zu schaffen, bei dem das Öffnen des Schirmes und das erforderliche Spannen des Schirmdaches für eine Sturmsicherheit desselben leicht und auf einfache Weise vorgenommen werden kann. Die Erfindung der genannten Art zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß eine Hilfsstrebe oberhalb des Läufers zwischen Standrohr und mindestens einer Dachstange gelenkig angeordnet ist und daß der Läufer mit einer Verriegelungsvorrichtung versehen ist, die mit einem am Standrohr befestigten Haltearm zusammenwirkt und mit der der Läufer in seiner oberen Lage arretierbar und das Schirmdach spannbar ist.The object of the invention is to provide a parasol, in particular a large parasol, in which the opening of the parasol and the necessary tensioning of the parasol roof can be carried out easily and in a simple manner for storm safety. The invention of the type mentioned is characterized in that an auxiliary strut is articulated above the runner between the standpipe and at least one roof rod and that the runner is provided with a locking device which cooperates with a holding arm attached to the standpipe and with which the runner in its the upper position can be locked and the canopy can be tensioned.

Durch eine solche Ausbildung und Gestaltung des Großschirmes wird erreicht, daß der Großschirm sich leicht öffnen läßt und daß zugleich die Möglichkeit gegeben ist, das Schirmdach an dem Großschirm so zu spannen, daß der Schirm im ganzen wind- und sturmsicher ist. Dies ergibt sich durch Anwendung einfacher Mittel, die ebenfalls von Hand betätigt werden können, ohne daß mehr oder weniger komplizierte und kostspielige Getriebe verwendet werden müssen. Der Großschirm bzw. der Standschirm bleibt im Gewicht verhältnismäßig leicht, so daß er von einer Person transportiert werden kann. Die Verriegelungsvorrichtung befindet sich an dem Standschirm etwa in Brusthöhe der Bedienungsperson, so daß die Vorrichtung einerseits gut überwacht und andererseits wegen der entsprechenden Höhe leicht bedienbar bleibt. Die Verriegelungsvorrichtung selbst ist einfacher Bauart und damit preiswert. Vor allem ist die Gewähr gegeben, daß das Schirmdach mit einfachen, von Hand zu bedienenden Mitteln äußerst straff gespannt werden kann, was bei einem Allwetterschirm vonnöten ist.Such a design and design of the large screen ensures that the large screen can be opened easily and that at the same time there is the possibility of tensioning the umbrella roof on the large screen so that the screen as a whole is wind and storm-proof. This results from the use of simple means, which can also be operated by hand, without the need to use more or less complicated and expensive gears. The large screen or the parachute remains relatively light in weight so that it can be transported by one person. The locking device is located on the parachute approximately at the breast level of the operator, so that the device is well monitored on the one hand and remains easy to operate on the other hand because of the corresponding height. The locking device itself is simple and therefore inexpensive. Above all, there is a guarantee that the Canopy can be stretched extremely tight with simple, hand-operated means, which is necessary for an all-weather umbrella.

Für die Verriegelungsvorrichtung ist ein Spannhebelverschluß vorgesehen. Bei diesem ist ein fest angeordnetes Widerlager vorhanden sowie ein mit dem Wiederlager zusammengreifendes Spannelement.A clamping lever lock is provided for the locking device. This has a fixed abutment and a clamping element that engages with the abutment.

Das Widerlager befindet sich vorteilhaft an dem Standrohr. Die Befestigung desselben erfolgt zweckmäßig mittels eines Haltearms, der nach unten geführt wird. Der Halterarm ist bevorzugt oberhalb des Läufer-Verschiebeweges an dem Standrohr befestigt und wird durch eine Bohrung, einen Schlitz oder dergleichen an dem Läufer hindurchgeführt.The abutment is advantageously located on the standpipe. The same is expediently fastened by means of a holding arm which is guided downwards. The holder arm is preferably fastened to the standpipe above the runner displacement path and is passed through a bore, a slot or the like on the runner.

Weiterhin ist zur Erleichterung der Handhabung für den Öffnungs- und Schließvorgang des Schirmes der Läufer mit einem als Rohr ausgebildeten Ansatz versehen, an dem das Spannelement des Spannhebelverschlusses angebracht werden kann. Dadurch ist die Möglichkeit gegeben, daß die Verriegelung des in der oberen Lage befindlichen Läufers etwa in Brusthöhe der Bedienungsperson erfolgen kann.Furthermore, to facilitate handling for the opening and closing process of the screen, the rotor is provided with a projection designed as a tube, to which the tensioning element of the tension lever lock can be attached. This makes it possible for the runner located in the upper position to be locked approximately at the operator's chest height.

The invention is explained below using an exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing:

schematically illustrates a detail of the standpipe with locking device on a larger scale.

Der Schirm der Erfindung weist ein Standrohr 1 auf, in den ein Stockteil 2 teleskopartig verschiebbar gelagert ist. Der Stockteil 2 ist mit einer Krone 3 versehen, an dem die Dachstangen 5 angelenkt sind. Ein Läufer 4 ist längs des starren Standrohres 1 verschiebbar gelagert. Zwischen dem Läufer 5 und den Dachstangen befinden sich beidseitig angelenkte Stützstreben 6. Die Anlenkpunkte an den Dachstangen sind mit 7 bezeichnet.The screen of the invention has a standpipe 1, in which a stick part 2 is telescopically mounted. The stick part 2 is provided with a crown 3, on which the roof rods 5 are articulated. A rotor 4 is slidably mounted along the rigid standpipe 1. Between the runner 5 and the roof poles there are support struts 6 articulated on both sides. The articulation points on the roof poles are designated by 7.

Weiterhin sind Hilfsstreben 8 vorhanden, und zwar rundum in gleichmäßiger Verteilung oder mindestens in der Anzahl von zwei in radialer Ebene zueinander angeordnet. Die Hilfsstrebe ist einerseits bei 9 an das Standrohr 1 und andererseits bei 10 an den Dachstangen angelenkt.In addition, auxiliary struts 8 are present, arranged all around in a uniform distribution or at least in the number of two in a radial plane to one another. The auxiliary strut is articulated on the one hand at 9 to the standpipe 1 and on the other hand at 10 on the roof poles.

Der Läufer 4 ist mit einem zum unteren Stockende verlaufenden rohrförmigen Ansatz 4a versehen, der zur Erleichterung der Handhabung für die Verschiebung des Läufers 4 dient. An dem rohrförmigen Handhabungs-Ansatz 4a befindet sich der Spannhebelverschluß 12. Dieser arbeitet mit einem Widerlager 11 zusammen, das sich am Ende eines starren Halterarms 13 befindet, der oberhalb des Verschiebeweges des Läufers 4 fest an dem Standrohr 1 bei 15 angebracht ist. Mit 14 ist das Schirmdach bzw. der Schirmbezug bezeichnet.The rotor 4 is provided with a tubular extension 4a running to the lower end of the stick, which serves to facilitate handling for the displacement of the rotor 4. The clamping lever lock 12 is located on the tubular handling attachment 4a. This works together with an abutment 11, which is located at the end of a rigid holder arm 13, which is fixedly attached to the standpipe 1 at 15 above the displacement path of the rotor 4. With 14 the umbrella roof or the umbrella cover is designated.

Beim Schließen bzw. Öffnen des Schirms bewegen sich Krone 3 und Läufer 4 zwangsläufig aufeinander zu bzw. entfernen sich voneinander. Die zwangsläufige Gegenläufigkeit von Krone und Läufer wird infolge der Gestellkonstruktion und der hier diametral angeordneten Hilfsstreben 8 erzeugt, die bei 9 fest an dem Standrohr 1 angelenkt sind und bei 10 an den Dachstangen angreifen. Beim Schließen wird der Läufer 4 mit dem Rohransatz 4a nach unten gezogen, worauf die Hilfsstrebe 8 die Stützstrebe 6 bis in Richtung zum Standrohr bewegt. Dadurch wird der Teleskopstock 2 mit der Krone 3 nach oben verschoben, was ein Anlegen der Dachstangen an das Standrohr stock 1 zur Folge hat. Der Läufer 4 mit dem als Handhabe dienenden Rohransatz 4a wird bei geschlossenem Schirm mit zunächst bis zur fast vollständigen Öffnung des Schirms unter sehr geringem Kraftaufwand nach oben geschoben. Sobald und wenn beim Hochschieben des Läufers 4, 4a die erste Handwiderstandsveränderung wahrnehmbar ist (Beginn der eigentlichen Dachspannphase) läßt sich der umlegbare Spannfederbügel 16 des Spannhebelverschlusses 12 in das Widerlager 11 einklinken, und zwar mittels des Handhebels 17. Damit ist zunächst die Tendenz des Läufers 4, 4a, nach dem Loslassen seines nach unten verlängerten, als Handhabe dienenden, Ansatzes 4a wieder nach unten zu fahren, gestoppt. Danach wird der eigentliche Handhebel 17 des Spannhebelverschlusses 12 unter Überwindung eines Druckpunktes nach unten umgelegt, was von Hand z.B. mittels des Handballens durchgeführt werden kann. Mit diesem Umlegevorgang des Spannhebels 17 läßt sich diejenige Kraft erzeugen, die erforderlich ist, den restlichen Hebelweg des Läufers 4 und den damit verbundenen mechanischen Widerstand zu überwinden, der sich beim eigentlichen Spannen des Schirmdaches aufbaut.When the umbrella is closed or opened, the crown 3 and the rotor 4 inevitably move towards one another or move away from one another. The inevitable counter-rotation of crown and rotor is generated due to the frame construction and the diametrically arranged auxiliary struts 8, which are articulated at 9 on the standpipe 1 and act at 10 on the roof poles. When closing the rotor 4 is pulled down with the tube extension 4a, whereupon the auxiliary strut 8 moves the support strut 6 in the direction of the standpipe. As a result, the telescopic stick 2 with the crown 3 upwards moved, which results in the roof poles being placed on the standpipe stock 1. The rotor 4 with the tube extension 4a serving as a handle is pushed upwards with the umbrella closed and initially until the umbrella is almost completely opened with very little effort. As soon as and when the first hand resistance change is perceptible when the rotor 4, 4a is pushed up (beginning of the actual roof tensioning phase), the foldable spring clip 16 of the clamping lever lock 12 can be latched into the abutment 11, specifically by means of the hand lever 17. This is the tendency of the rotor first 4, 4a, after releasing his downwardly extended, serving as a handle, approach 4a down again stopped. Then the actual hand lever 17 of the tension lever lock 12 is turned down while overcoming a pressure point, which can be carried out manually, for example by means of the ball of the thumb. With this folding process of the tensioning lever 17, that force can be generated which is necessary to overcome the remaining lever travel of the rotor 4 and the associated mechanical resistance which builds up when the sunshade roof is actually tensioned.

Der für das Spannen des Schirmdaches 14 erforderliche Kraftaufwand beträgt ein Vielfaches (je nach Schirmgröße das 10 bis 30fache) der für das Öffnen des Schirms, d.h. das Heben des Läufers (entfalten/spreizen der Dachkonstruktion einschließlich der Dachhaut) erforderlichen Handkraft. Diese manuell nicht aufbringbare Kraft (zum endlichen Spannen des Schirmdaches) läßt sich zum endlichen Spannen des Schirmdaches mittels des Handhebels 17 des Spannhebelverschlusses 12 mühelos erzeugen.The force required for tensioning the canopy 14 is a multiple (depending on the size of the canopy 10 to 30 times) that for opening the canopy, i.e. the lifting of the runner (unfolding / spreading the roof structure including the roof skin) requires the necessary manual force. This force that cannot be applied manually (for finite tensioning of the canopy) can be easily generated for finite tensioning of the canopy by means of the hand lever 17 of the tensioning lever lock 12.

Das "restliche" Öffnen, zugleich das endliche Spannen des Schirmdaches mittels des Spannhebelverschlusses 12 hat außerdem den Sinn, dem Benutzer des Schirms die Entscheidung darüber abzunehmen, ob und wann der Schirm ausreichend gespannt und in welchen endlichen Öffnungsgrad die Dachkonstruktion in Abhängigkeit vom statischen Spannkraftpotential zu bringen ist.The "remaining" opening, at the same time the finite tensioning of the canopy by means of the tension lever lock 12 also has the meaning, the user of the umbrella the decision to determine whether and when the screen is sufficiently tensioned and to what finite degree of opening the roof structure is to be made depending on the static tension potential.

Die Länge der Stützstreben 6 und ihre Anlenkpunkte 7 an den Dachstangen 5, ebenso die Länge der Hilfsstreben 8 und die Lage ihrer Anlenkpunkte 10 an den Dachstangen 5 sind so zu wählen, daß der Schwerpunkt der Dachkonstruktion mindestens annähernd so weit aus der gleichen bzw. gleichgewichtigen Höhe nach unten auswandert, daß sich der geöffnete Schirm nach Entspannen und Entriegeln seines Spannhebelverschlusses 12 selbsttätig schließt. Außerdem sind sie so zu wählen, daß die resultierende maximale vertikale Verschiebestrecke des verschiebbaren Stockteils 2 in jedem Falle kürzer bzw. kleiner ist als diejenige des Läufers 4, 4a.The length of the support struts 6 and their articulation points 7 on the roof poles 5, as well as the length of the auxiliary struts 8 and the position of their articulation points 10 on the roof poles 5 are to be chosen such that the center of gravity of the roof construction is at least approximately as far from the same or equivalent Height migrates downwards that the opened screen closes automatically after relaxing and unlocking its tension lever lock 12. In addition, they are to be selected so that the resulting maximum vertical displacement distance of the displaceable stick part 2 is in any case shorter or smaller than that of the rotor 4, 4a.

Das Widerlager 11 ist mit seinem vertikal freihängenden Tragarm 13 mit dessen oberem Ende am äußeren Standrohr 1 exzentrisch zur vertikalen Mittelachse des Standrohres aufzuhängen bzw. zu befestigen. Die Länge des Tragarms 13 und die Lage seines oberen Aufhängepunktes 15 an dem äußeren Standrohr, ebenso die Gesamtlänge des Läuferwegs 4 sind so zu wählen, daß der maximale vertikale Verschiebeweg zwischen der geschlossenen Position des Spannhebelverschlusses 12 und dem Widerlager 11 mindestens annähernd gleich dem maximalen vertikalen Verschiebeweg des Läufers 4 auf dem Standrohr 1 ist.The abutment 11 is to be suspended or fastened with its vertically freely suspended support arm 13 with its upper end on the outer standpipe 1 eccentrically to the vertical central axis of the standpipe. The length of the support arm 13 and the position of its upper suspension point 15 on the outer standpipe, as well as the total length of the runner path 4 are to be chosen so that the maximum vertical displacement between the closed position of the clamping lever lock 12 and the abutment 11 is at least approximately equal to the maximum vertical Displacement of the rotor 4 on the standpipe 1 is.

Die Länge des Halterarms 13 und die Lage seines oberen Befestigungsendes bzw. Aufhängepunktes an dem äußeren Standrohr 1 sind so zu wählen, daß bei manuellem Heben des Läufers 4, 4a der Spannbügel 16 des Spannhebelverschlusses 12 mindestens annähernd in diejenige räumliche Position gelangt, in der der Spannbügel 16 des Spannverschlusses 12 sich mühelos in das Widerlager 11 am unteren Ende des Tragarms 13 einklinken läßt, bevor sich beim Heben des Läufers ein auch nur entfernt höherer mechanischer Widerstand einstellt als derjenige während des reinen Hebevorganges des Läufers 4, 4a.The length of the holder arm 13 and the position of its upper fastening end or suspension point on the outer standpipe 1 are to be selected so that when the runner 4, 4a is lifted manually, the clamping bracket 16 of the clamping lever lock 12 reaches at least approximately the spatial position in which the Clamp 16 of the tension lock 12 itself can be easily latched into the abutment 11 at the lower end of the support arm 13, before a mechanical resistance which is even remotely higher is set when the runner is lifted than that during the pure lifting process of the runner 4, 4a.

Da das Wiederlager 11 und sein Haltearm 13 der Verschieblichkeit des Läufers 4 räumlich bzw. körperlich entgegenstehen, ist der Läufer 4 zwischen der oberen Befestigung 5 des Haltearms 13 an dem Standrohr und dem unteren Widerlager 11 mit einer Bohrung 18 bzw. einem offenen Längsschlitz versehen, die das freie Gleiten des Haltearms 13 gegenüber dem Verschieben des Läufers 4 praktisch reibungsfrei zuläßt. Anstelle des vorgeschriebenen Systems ist es auch möglich, ein für den Spannhebelverschluß 12 erforderliches Widerlager ohne Haltearm an dem äußeren Standrohr 1 zu befestigen. Die Verschieblichkeit des Läufers 4 wird dadurch gewährt, daß der Läufer 4, 4a auf der überwiegenden Länge seines rohrförmigen Ansatzes 4a in dessen Außenwandung eine vertikale Langlochaussparung aufweist. Eine solche Langlochaussparung kann bei einem direkt auf dem äußeren Standrohr 1 angebrachten Widerlager 11 in vertikaler Ausdehnung dann wesentlich geringer bemessen werden, wenn das Widerlager 11 gegen einer in seiner Befestigung enthaltenen Druckfeder so weit an den äußeren Standrohr 1 angepreßt werden kann, daß es infolge der Wahl der Größe und der Lage des verkleinerten Langlochs oder der verkleinerten Aussparung an der Wandung des Läuferansatzes 4a durch die Federkraft erst nach außen gedrückt und für den Spannbügel des Spannhebelverschlusses 12 zugänglich wird, wenn die Lochaussparung im nach unten verlängerten Teil des Läufers 4 beim Verschieben desselben die Position des gegen Federkraft an oder in den Schirmstock 1 angepreßten bzw. eingedrückten Widerlagers 11 erreicht hat und damit ein körperliches Herausspringen des Widerlagers 11 durch die Lochaussparung zuläßt.Since the abutment 11 and its holding arm 13 are physically or physically opposed to the displaceability of the rotor 4, the rotor 4 is provided with a bore 18 or an open longitudinal slot between the upper fastening 5 of the holding arm 13 on the standpipe and the lower abutment 11, which allows the free sliding of the holding arm 13 against the displacement of the rotor 4 practically without friction. Instead of the prescribed system, it is also possible to attach an abutment required for the clamping lever lock 12 to the outer standpipe 1 without a holding arm. The displaceability of the rotor 4 is ensured in that the rotor 4, 4a has a vertical slot opening in the outer wall of the predominant length of its tubular extension 4a. Such an elongated hole recess can be dimensioned much smaller in a vertical extension when the abutment 11 is mounted directly on the outer standpipe 1 if the abutment 11 can be pressed against the outer standpipe 1 against a compression spring contained in its fastening to such an extent that it becomes a result of the Choice of the size and position of the reduced elongated hole or the reduced cutout on the wall of the runner shoulder 4a is only pressed outwards by the spring force and is accessible to the clamping bracket of the clamping lever lock 12 when the cutout in the downwardly extended part of the runner 4 when moving it has reached the position of the abutment 11 pressed against or pressed against spring force into or into the umbrella stick 1 and thus allows the abutment 11 to physically jump out through the hole recess.

Vorteilhaft wird ein textiler Dachbezug verwendet, der aufliegend auf den Dachstangen 5 einenends im offenen Querschnitt des Profils der Dachstangen und anderenends mittels Haken befestigt ist, wobei eine radiale Vorspannung mittels auf den Unterseiten der Dachstangenenden 5 sitzender Spannverschluß z.B. ähnlich der Bauart der Spannhebelverschlüsse 12 befestigt ist.A textile roof covering is advantageously used, which is attached to the roof bars 5 at one end in the open cross-section of the profile of the roof bars and at the other ends by means of hooks, with a radial prestressing by means of a tension lock located on the undersides of the roof bar ends 5, e.g. similar to the design of the lever locks 12 is attached.
