Definitions
- the present invention relates to a winding structure particularly suitable for covering areas.
- a particular type of winding structure currently available on the market generically comprises a laminar sheet of the aforementioned type for covering a given area, made of a material of suitable strength for such an application, which is usually a plastic fabric.
- the winding structure also comprises a supporting structure associated with the area to cover, the structural design of which may vary depending on the design decisions and environmental constraints of the installation.
- the supporting structure includes one or more supporting elements that are associated with a supporting surface existing in the area, such as the ground, paving or a wall of a building.
- first transmission means such as sheaves or pulleys, for instance, connected to the laminar sheet by tensioning means, generally consisting of metal cables.
- the supporting structure also includes a cylinder for supporting the laminar sheet, which identifies a longitudinal axis of rotation and is associated with the supporting surface by fixing means of various types.
- the winding structure thus includes drive means for rotating the cylinder around said longitudinal axis, and elastic means that cooperate mechanically with the drive means to unwind or wind the sheet around the cylinder.
- the drive means are installed in the vicinity of one end of the cylinder, always projecting therefrom.
- a ring-shaped seat is also provided in said terminal area of the cylinder, wherein the tensioning means are wound when the sheet is in the closed position, i.e. rewound around the cylinder.
- tensioning means One end of the tensioning means is associated with the cylinder, while the opposite end is attached to the laminar sheet by fixing means of the type known to a person skilled in the art.
- Elastic means e.g. a pair of spiral springs, are provided in line with the end of the cylinder opposite the end where the drive means are installed.
- These elastic means are connected to second transmission means placed between the drive means and the first transmission means, and are substantially of the same type as the latter.
- the tensioning means slide on the second transmission means during the unwinding and winding of the laminar sheet and, in practical terms, they occupy a position above the cylinder and the laminar sheet when it is unwound.
- the laminar sheet consists of two sheets of equal thickness and length, each having a shape, as seen from above, essentially in the form of an isosceles triangle or trapeze.
- the two sheets are attached to one another by joining means in line with the edge of the laminar sheet connected to the cylinder, whereon they are wound in opposite directions.
- the drive means turn the cylinder around its longitudinal axis, releasing the tensioning means and thus enabling the two sheets to spread out and cover the area, moving in the same plane but in opposite directions.
- the drive means turn the cylinder in the opposite direction around its longitudinal axis, rewinding the tensioning means in line with the aforesaid ring-shaped seat and withdrawing the two sheets from either side of the cylinder.
- the elastic means exert a tensile force on the laminar sheet, while the drive means simply wind and unwind the laminar sheet.
- the winding structures generally, and preferably, also include means for monitoring the weather conditions, such as anemometer, connected electrically to a central data processing unit to which the drive means are also connected.
- means for monitoring the weather conditions such as anemometer
- a first drawback is represented by the fact that the structural shape of the winding structures of known type is somewhat articulated and considerably complicates the assembly operations involved for the installer covering the area.
- a second drawback stems from the fact that the mechanical components used to construct the winding structures of known type, e.g, the drive means, the elastic means, the tensioning means and the transmission means, remain exposed to the weather.
- the laminar sheet is capable of effectively withstanding weather, such as driving rain or strong wind, only within certain limits, so it has to be closed even when the weather conditions are not particularly severe.
- the above-mentioned anemometers are currently set to operate at rather low critical wind speed values, so the central data processing unit triggers the rewinding of the laminar sheet onto the cylinder already when the wind speed reaches 40 km/h.
- a further drawback lies in the fact that the laminar sheet risks being damaged and the winding structure as a whole suffers from structural instability even in the case of sub-critical weather conditions, just because of the somewhat slack arrangement of the laminar sheet when it is spread out to cover the underlying area.
- the present invention aims to overcome the above-mentioned drawbacks of the known state of the art.
- the main object of the invention is to provide a winding structure of more straightforward design with respect to structures similar of known type.
- a second object of the invention is to make it quicker and easier to install the winding structure than is the case of the winding structures of known type.
- Another object is to achieve a greater tautness of the laminar sheet, when it is opened to cover the underlying area, than is achievable with equivalent winding structures of known type.
- a further object of the invention is to improve the stability of the winding structure as a whole, with respect to the known technique, in relation to weather conditions similar to those making it necessary to rewind the laminar sheet onto the cylinder.
- a last but not least objective of the invention is to improve the aesthetic impact of the winding structure with respect to comparable structures of known type.
- the present invention relates to a winding structure for covering areas in accordance with the corresponding main claim.
- the winding structure of the invention advantageously has a less articulated structural design, as regards the components remaining visible from the outside at least, with respect to the currently known state of the art.
- the operator can thus install the winding structure described herein more quickly and easily than similar structures of known type.
- the design of the winding structure of the invention enables the adoption of a more efficient laminar sheet unwinding system than the equivalent one of the known state of the art.
- the winding structure of the invention can thus be reasonably defined as a genuine tensegrity system, in the sense generally attributed to said term, unlike the winding structures of the known state of the art wherein the laminar sheet remains somewhat slack when open.
- this enables the winding structure of the invention to withstand weather conditions nearing the critical parameters at which the rewinding of the laminar sheet is programmed, more effectively and safely than equivalent structures of known type.
- the invention carries fewer risks of damage to the laminar sheet, which is tauter, and the transmission of more moderate tensile strains to the winding structure, which becomes structurally more stable.
- the greater tautness of the laminar sheet achieved by the invention advantageously enables higher critical values to be set for the parameters used to measure the weather conditions at which the cylinder has to be rewound, by comparison with the known state of the art.
- the value of the wind speed that prompts the rewinding of the laminar sheet is set at 60 km/h, instead of the 40 km/h typical of similar structures of known type.
- Another advantage of the invention is associated with the appearance of the winding structure, which is far more attractive and better than that of the known state of the art.
- the open laminar sheet also contributes towards the achievement of this aesthetic impact because it is tauter than with the known state of the art and enables for particularly stylish architectural shapes to be obtained.
- winding structure of the invention is illustrated in figures 1 and 2 , where it is globally indicated by the numeral 1, respectively in the situation of intended use and in the situation of non-use, installed in an area A to cover.
- the winding structure 1 comprises:
- the elastic means 12 are contained inside one of the component parts of the supporting structure 3 and are associated with means of rotation, globally indicated by the numeral 13, operatively connected to the drive means 11, that are used to load/release the elastic means 12 during the unwinding/winding of the laminar sheet 2.
- the elastic means 12 are contained inside the cylinder 9 and the drive means 11 are installed in the supporting elements 4, 5, while the cylinder 9 constitutes the means of rotation 13.
- the elastic means may be contained inside the supporting element and the drive means may be associated with the cylinder, e.g. by keying them or otherwise connecting them to its outer wall.
- Such structural solutions wherein the means of rotation are in the form of the transmission means instead of the cylinder and a single motor overcomes the resistance of the elastic means associated with one or more supporting elements, are suitable for winding structures of more limited size than the structure 1, which is designed to cover medium to large areas.
- the winding structure 1 comprises a central data processing unit 14 of known type available to the user, that is electrically connected to the drive means 11 and used to automatically control the unwinding/winding of the laminar sheet 2.
- Figures 1 and 2 also show that the winding structure 1 comprises means for monitoring the weather conditions, globally numbered as 15 and consisting, for instance, of an anemometer, electrically connected to the central unit 14.
- the laminar sheet 2 is a sheet of plastic material, preferably but not necessarily polyamide, also known by the commercial name of nylon, that is waterproof and particularly water-resistant and suitable for silkscreen printing with symbols, patterns, wording and the like for decorative or advertising purposes.
- the laminar sheet 2 is attached to the cylinder 9 by connection means, generally indicated by the numeral 16, situated on one edge 2a of the laminar sheet 2.
- the laminar sheet 2 is composed of two sheets 21 , 22, of substantially the same size, joined together near the edge 2a by joining means, globally indicated by the numeral 17, and wound in opposite directions onto the cylinder 9.
- the joining means 17 consist, in the example described herein, of a seam of stitches 18 extending the full width L of the laminar sheet 2, but slightly less than the length of the cylinder 9, but in other embodiments these joining means may naturally be of any other type.
- connection means 16 comprise a shaped cavity 19 open on one side 19', in the side wall 9a of the cylinder 9, to allow for the insertion of a cylindrical core 20 contained inside a fold 23 stitched in the vicinity of the edge 2a along the full width L of the laminar sheet 2.
- the profile 19' of the shaped cavity 19 is in the form of an incomplete circle comprising at least 180° of its circumference so as to substantially define a "C" shape.
- the cylindrical core 20 is made of plastic and, at one end 20a, it has an internally threaded hole 24, wherein a screw 25 engages to exert a tensile force on the laminar sheet 2.
- each of these contains an electric motor of the type used for operating roller blinds, complete with a limit switch associated with the drive means 11.
- the supporting element 4 consists of a tubular element 26, which identifies a second longitudinal axis of rotation Y and is attached by supporting means globally indicated by the numeral 29 to a first upright 28 coming to bear on the supporting surface S.
- the supporting element may consist of a container situated inside the supporting surface, e.g. a concrete pit sunk in the ground, which contains a low-voltage (e.g. 24V) electric motor associated with the transmission means by suitable drive gearing, easily identifiable by a person skilled in the art.
- a low-voltage (e.g. 24V) electric motor associated with the transmission means by suitable drive gearing, easily identifiable by a person skilled in the art.
- the supporting means 29 comprise a shaped bracket 30 and a pair of shaped arms 31, 32, arranged above said shaped bracket 30, and projecting from the outer wall 28a of the first upright 28.
- the tubular element 26 has its base 26a resting on the shaped bracket 30 and, near the top 26b it is connected laterally to the shaped arms 31, 32 by restraining means, jointly numbered as 33.
- the transmission means 6, associated with the supporting element 4, are situated above the top 26b of the tubular element 26, in the same way as the transmission means 7 are associated with the supporting element 5 on the corresponding tubular element 56 on the other side of the winding structure.
- the transmission means 6 comprise a plastic pulley 34, coaxial to the tubular element 26, which has a continuous, spiral shaped groove 35 on the outer surface 34a, in which the tensioning means 8 are contained during the winding of the laminar sheet 2.
- the above-mentioned restraining means 33 consist of screw means 37 inserted in two through slots 38, 39, each obtained on one of the arms 31, 32, and two threaded holes 401, 402 communicating respectively with the through slots 38, 39 and obtained in a metal ring 40, illustrated in the enlargement in fig. 6 , coupled coaxially and externally to the tubular element 26.
- the screw means 37 have a screw head 37a projecting from the side 31a, 32a of the arms 31, 32, while the threaded holes 401, 402 are diametrically opposite one another.
- the through slot 38, 39 has an elongated shape with a slightly arched profile so as to enable the angular adjustment of the tubular element 26 with respect to the first upright 28.
- this design solution enables the tubular element 26, and the drive means 11 contained therein, to be tilted with respect to the first upright 28 at an angle a, which may range from 0° to 15°, between the longitudinal axis 'Y' of the former and the longitudinal axis Y of the latter, in order to keep the longitudinal axis Y' of the tubular element 26 substantially at right angles to the supporting surface S and the tensioning means 8, thereby facilitating the proper winding of the pulley 34 in the continuous groove 35 during the unwinding of the laminar sheet 2.
- the first upright 28 is also complete with a pair of shaped wings 41, 42, projecting from the outer wall 28a of the first upright 28 on the side opposite the shaped arms 31 , 32.
- Tensioning means globally indicated by the numeral 43 and of known type, e.g. metal cables, are fixed to said shaped wings 41, 42 and permanently attached to the ground, or any other surface, being designed to contrast the force exerted by the tensioning means 8 during the winding of the laminar sheet 2.
- these consist of metal cables 6 typical of such constructions, having one end 36a attached to the side rim 34b of the pulley 34 and the opposite end 36b attached to the laminar sheet 2.
- fig. 7 shows that these comprise a pair of second uprights 44, 45, which come to bear on the supporting surface S, having at their free end 44a, 45a a female thread, not illustrated, whereon one of the threaded pins 46, 47 projecting coaxially from the ends 9b, 9c of the cylinder 9 engages.
- Each of the threaded pins 46, 47 is fixed to one of the second uprights 44, 45 by means of a locking nut, only one of which is illustrated, indicated by the numeral 57.

- the cylindrical bumper 50 is precisely coupled to the cylinder 9, in relation to which it has a slightly smaller diameter.
- the spiral spring 51 is able to slide inside the cylinder 9.
- the internal cylinder 49 and the cylindrical bumper 50 are made of plastic, but of different types: the first is made of polyvinyl chloride (PVC), while the second is made of polyamide or nylon, which assures a smooth surface finish, particularly indicated for slidingly coupled surfaces.
- PVC polyvinyl chloride
- nylon polyamide
- the winding structure 1 comprises means, globally indicated by the numeral 54, for loading the elastic means 12, associated with the cylinder 9.
- the loading means 54 are part of a bearing block 55, with a first part 55a coupled to the second upright 44, and a second part 55b, with a threaded through hole 59 wherein the threaded pin 46 engages.
- first part 55a and the second part 55b of the bearing block 55 are connected together by hinged means, globally indicated by the numeral 60, suitable for making the shaft 48, and consequently also the cylinder 9, occupy a horizontal or tilted position, depending on installation needs.
- the unwinding of the laminar sheet 2 from the cylinder 9 is achieved by the rotation of the cylinder 9 induced by the drive means 11, and the winding of the laminar sheet 2 onto the cylinder 9 is due to the release of the mechanical energy stored by the elastic means 12 during the unwinding of said laminar sheet 2.
- the cylinder 9 turns around the first longitudinal axis Z in one direction during the unwinding of the laminar sheet 2 and in the opposite direction during the winding of the laminar sheet 2.
- the elastic means 12 are progressively loaded and released respectively during the unwinding and winding of the laminar sheet 2.
- the elastic means 12 are loaded/released due to the direct effect of the rotation of the cylinder 9, with which they are associated, around the first to longitudinal axis Z.
- the elastic means 12 are loaded as they slide in one direction along the longitudinal axis Z inside the cylinder 9, entraining the cylindrical bumper 50 attached to one of their ends.
- the elastic means 12 slide inside the cylinder 9 in the opposite direction, extending progressively to their full length and thus returning to their resting condition.
- the elastic means are loaded/released due to the effect of the rotation of transmission means, to which the elastic means are connected, around a second longitudinal axis identified by a supporting element forming part of the supporting structure, to which the transmission means are connected.
- the laminar sheet 2 is unwound from or wound onto the cylinder 9 by means of the unwinding or winding of two sheets 21, 22 of substantially the same size, that together form the laminar sheet 2, in opposite directions along the same, substantially horizontal plane, and at right angles to the first longitudinal axis Z defined by the cylinder 9.
- the rewinding of the laminar sheet 2 is obtained automatically when the parameter used to measure the weather conditions reaches or exceeds a previously-established critical value.
- Said critical value is no less than 60 km/h when the parameter considered is the wind speed.
- the unwinding or winding of the laminar sheet 2 is enabled by the user by means of the central data processing unit 14, whose functions also include controlling the operating conditions of the drive means 11.
- the central processing unit 14 also stops the other, preventing any further manoeuvres of the laminar sheet 2.
- the method for unwinding/winding the laminar sheet also comprises a procedure for loading the elastic means 12, used during the installation of the winding structure 1 with the laminar sheet 2 unwound.
- the method for unwinding/winding the laminar sheet also comprises a procedure for loading the elastic means 12, used during the installation of the winding structure 1 with the laminar sheet 2 unwound and positioned so as to cover the area A.
- Said operation consists in the operator making the shaft 48 rotate by means of the loading means 54 connected to the pin 46 so as to compress the elastic means 12, coaxially associated with the shaft 48, and thereby reduce them to their minimum length, keeping them in said position until the laminar sheet 2 has been spread out.
- the method for unwinding/winding the laminar sheet comprises a procedure for horizontally positioning the cylinder 9 that is completed before or after the operation for loading the elastic means 12.
- This consists in rotating the second part 55b of the bearing block 55, associated with the cylinder 9, through a suitable angle in relation to the first part 55a, associated with the second upright 44, by taking action on the hinged means 60.
- the winding structure of the invention enables a better runoff of rainwater in that the particular tautness of the laminar sheet prevents the formation of pockets or the hazardous accumulation of water, which is often seen in the winding structures of known type.
- Changes may be made to the winding structure of the invention in the development stage, consisting, for instance, in a supporting structure having a different composition from the one previously described.
- some supporting structures may include a different number of supporting elements, or differently shaped from those referred to in the course of the previous description and illustrated in the attached drawings.
- the drive means and elastic means may be of a different nature from those previously described, without this having any bearing on the advantages offered by the present patent.
- the means for fixing the cylinder to the supporting surface may differ from those described and illustrated in the attached drawings, while still using systems that are a part of the normal technical know-how of a person skilled in the art, and consequently come within the field of application of the present invention.
