Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to an awning housing assembly comprising a support and incline-adjustment device, and more specifically to an awning housing assembly with a support device comprising angular position adjustment means for changing the angular position of the housing in relation to support pieces adapted to be fixed in relation to a wall or another structure, and locking means for locking the housing in relation to said support pieces in a selected angular position.
  • a type of awning comprising a canvas, a winding tube on which said canvas is wound, a load bar joined to a front end of the canvas and extensible articulated arms connected to the load bar and elastically pushed to extend the canvas as it is unwound and to keep the canvas taut.
  • a manual or motor-driven mechanism allows making the winding tube rotate so as to extend or draw in the canvas of the awning.
  • This housing is generally formed by an elongated casing provided with a front longitudinal opening through which the canvas passes, the load bar being configured to close said longitudinal opening in a folded awning situation, in which the arms are folded and housed inside the casing.
  • the casing is closed at both side ends by end plates that are respectively pivot connected to a pair of support pieces adapted to be fixed in relation to a wall or another structure.
  • Adjustment means allow adjusting and fixing the angular position of the end plates, and therefore of the housing, in relation to the support pieces.
  • European patent application EP 03380120.0 discloses a inclination-adjustable awning support device comprising a pair of support pieces fixed in relation to a wall or another structure, between which a protecting casing or housing for the awning is supported.
  • the mentioned housing comprises a longitudinal profile laterally closed by a pair of end plates that are pivot connected to said support pieces.
  • Each of these end plates of the casing includes, at its inner part, a support for a winding tube for a canvas, a hinging bracket for connecting a corresponding arm, and at its outer part, a projecting central stud passed through an opening of the corresponding support piece.
  • a toothed wheel sector is formed in this projecting stud and meshed with a movable rack housed and guided in the support piece.
  • the mentioned rack is formed in a piece coupled to a screw which can be actuated from outside to move the rack and thus make the toothed wheel and the housing rotate.
  • Locking means for locking the end plates, and thus the housing, in relation to the support pieces in a selected angular position are also provided.
  • An objective of the present invention is to contribute to overcoming the previous drawbacks by providing an awning housing assembly comprising a support and incline-adjustment device including a configuration for concealing and protecting the gap between the support pieces and the end plates and a toothed wheel and rack mechanism with a new arrangement allowing for a larger radius for the toothed wheel compared to the prior art devices.
  • an awning housing assembly comprising a support and incline-adjustment device, of the type comprising, for each end of said housing, a support piece, adapted to be fixed in relation to a wall or another structure, and an end plate fixed to the corresponding end of the housing closing it laterally and coupled to said support piece such that it can rotate in relation to an axis.
  • the device includes locking means for locking said end plate in relation to the support piece in a selected angular position, and is characterized in that the end plate has formed, around said rotation axis, a recessed zone adapted to house a flat portion of the support piece, the depth of said recessed zone of the end plate being equal to or greater than the thickness of said flat portion of the support piece.
  • a central opening concentric with the rotation axis In said flat portion of the support piece there is formed a central opening concentric with the rotation axis, and in said recessed zone of the end plate there is formed a central opening concentric with the rotation axis, and therefore coaxially aligned with said central opening of the support piece.
  • the flat portion of the support piece has an edge having a circumference arch shape concentric with the rotation axis, said edge being facing a step having a circumference arch shape also concentric with the rotation axis and delimiting the recessed zone of the end plate.
  • This non-recessed part of the end plate further has sufficient thickness to optionally house a part of the angular position adjustment means including a toothed wheel and rack mechanism actuated by a screw to change the angular position of said end plate in relation to the support piece.
  • the mentioned locking means conventionally comprise at least one elongated hole with a circumference arch shape concentric with the rotation axis formed in the flat portion of the support piece, at least one fixing hole formed in the recessed zone of the end plate and facing said elongated hole of the support piece, and a lock screw installed through the elongated hole and the fixing hole such that upon being tightened, it presses the end plate against the support piece and thus locks them to one another by friction.
  • other locking means using a strap for example, are known in the state of the art, and are also applicable in the present invention.
  • a sector of said toothed wheel is formed in the peripheral zone of the support piece, whereas said rack is formed in a sliding piece housed in a cavity of the end plate formed next to the recessed zone.
  • the rack and the toothed wheel sector are mutually meshed through a passageway between the mentioned cavity and the recessed zone.
  • the mentioned sliding piece includes a longitudinal threaded through hole in which said screw is coupled, said screw being trapped in the mentioned cavity by stops defined therein.
  • the screw is prevented from moving in the cavity, although it can rotate about its longitudinal axis.
  • the screw has a head with a coupling configuration adapted to be coupled by a tool, and the end plate comprises a passage communicating an outer edge of the end plate with the cavity. Said tool can thus access from the outside, through said passage, the mentioned coupling configuration of the screw head.
  • a rotation of the screw in either direction will move the sliding piece in which the rack is formed and the later, due to the mentioned meshing, will make the corresponding end plate rotate in either direction.
  • the rotation of one of the end plates of the housing involves a change in the angular position of the housing assembly including the folding arms, which position determines the direction in which the canvas will extend.
  • the device includes several of the mentioned elongated holes in the form of a concentric arch, although only one would be enough.
  • the path of each elongated hole coincides with the position of a corresponding fixing hole formed in the end plate in a range of angular positions of the end plate in relation to the support piece.
  • the special configuration of the device of the present invention does not prevent the mentioned paths of the elongated holes from having a relatively large radius, which allows obtaining a sufficiently large braking torque due to the friction between the support piece and the end plate by means of a reasonable tightening torque of the screws.
  • each of said fixing holes has, on a side opposite to the support piece, a mouth defining a housing for a nut in which said lock screw passed through the elongated hole and through the fixing hole is coupled.
  • the nut is obviously polygonal-shaped and is made from a sufficiently resistant material, and the housing prevents its rotation while the screw is tightened.
  • FIG 8 it shows an end of an awning provided with a housing 40 equipped with a support device with incline-adjustment according to the present invention.
  • the awning comprises a winding tube 25 on which a canvas 26 of the awning is wound.
  • a front end of the canvas 26 is joined to a load bar 42.
  • Articulated folding arms 24 (of which only the elbow of one of them can be seen in Figure 8 ) are connected to the load bar and elastically pushed to extend the canvas as it is unwound and to keep the canvas taut at all times.
  • a manual actuation mechanism (of which only a coupling 29 can be seen in Figure 8 ) allows making the winding tube 25 rotate to extend or draw in the canvas 26 of the awning.
  • the mentioned actuation mechanism can be a motor-driven mechanism comprising an electric geared motor housed inside the winding tube without this altering the object of the present invention.
  • the mentioned housing 40 comprises an elongated casing 41 provided with a front longitudinal opening through which the canvas 26 can pass when the awning is in a completely or partially unfolded situation, and the load bar 42 is configured to close said longitudinal opening in a folded awning situation shown in Figure 8 , at the same time enclosing the folding arms 24 folded inside the housing 40.
  • the casing 41 is closed at both side ends by end plates 2 (only one of which is shown in Figure 8 ).
  • the end plates 2 are fixedly joined to the elongated casing 41 by conventional means to form the housing 40.
  • Each end plate 2 is pivot connected to a corresponding support piece I adapted to be fixed in relation to a wall or another structure.
  • the housing 40 is thus supported between two support pieces 1 (only one of which is shown in Figure 8 ), being able to rotate about an imaginary rotation axis.
  • the device comprises angular position adjustment means for changing the angular position of the end plates 2, and therefore of the housing 40, in relation to the support pieces 1, and locking means for locking the end plates 2, and therefore the housing 40, in relation to the support piece I in a selected angular position.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show the assembly of the support device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention without angular position adjustment means, applied to an end of the housing 40, for example.
  • the end plate 2 has formed around said rotation axis a recessed zone 8 adapted to house a flat portion 66 of the support piece 1, such that a non-recessed part 49 of the end plate 2 conceals a gap between the support piece 1 and the end plate 2 from the front view.
  • the depth of said recessed zone 8 of the end plate 2 is preferably equal to or greater than the thickness of said flat portion 66 of the support piece 1.
  • a surface of the non-recessed part 49 of the end plate 2 is thus flush with or slightly more outward than a surface of the support piece 1.
  • the mentioned non-recessed part 49 of the end plate 2 projects in front of the support piece 1.
  • a central opening 10 concentric with the rotation axis is formed in said flat portion 66 of the support piece 1.
  • a central opening 11 concentric with the rotation axis is formed in said recessed zone 8 of the end plate 2.
  • the flat portion 66 of the support piece I has a peripheral edge 47 with a circumference arch shape concentric with the rotation axis and the recessed zone 8 of the end plate 2 is delimited by a step 48 with a circumference arch shape concentric with the rotation axis.

  • Figures 3 to 7 show the assembly of a support device according to another exemplary embodiment of the present invention including the mentioned angular position adjustment means, applied to the other opposite end of the housing 40, for example.
  • a toothed wheel sector 3 is formed in a segment of the peripheral edge 47 of the support piece I having a circumference arch shape.
  • a cavity 7 housing a sliding piece 12 having a toothing of rack 4 formed therein is formed in the non-recessed part 49 of the end plate 2, next to the step 48 delimiting the recessed zone 8.

  • the end plate 2 and the inner cover 39 comprise, for example, respective holes 45, 46 for installing fixing screws (not shown).
  • a rotation of the screw 5 inside the cavity 7 causes a movement of the sliding piece 12 together with the rack 4, and the movement of the rack 4 causes a rotation of the end plate 2 and therewith the movement of the entire housing 40, in relation to the support piece 1.
  • the head 15 of the screw 5 comprises a coupling configuration 18 adapted to receive the coupling of a work head of a tool.
  • a passage 19 communicating an outer edge of the non-recessed part 49 with the cavity 7 is formed in the end plate 2. Through said passage 19 the mentioned tool can access said coupling configuration 18 of the head 15 of the screw 5 from the outside.
