Definitions
- the invention relates to a rail device for parasols with at least one rail.
- umbrellas for shading terraces, swimming pools or gardens, the problem is that they are due to their large attack surface for wind movements on the one hand sufficiently secure and on the other hand due to the sun gear for repositioning still moving.
- Such umbrellas may, for example, be center-floor umbrellas, foldable central floor umbrellas and umbrella umbrellas.
- the traffic light umbrellas can be designed as Freiarmcape or side mast umbrellas.
- the base in the clamped state can be square, rectangular, circular or oval. Therefore, it is known to provide water-filled umbrella stand made of plastic on one side with rollers so that they can be lifted on the other side and rolled for repositioning.
- From the DE29915303U1 is a rotatable berth known, which has a turntable with a U-shaped guide ring on a bottom plate. In the middle of the bottom plate is a receptacle for a parasol.
- a rail device according to claim 1 is provided according to the invention.
- the rail device is to be firmly fixed on the terrace or the lawn during assembly. Due to the cross-section C-shape, a roller arranged in the rail can be used to transfer the force with which the rail is fastened to the substrate to the parasol if it threatens to tip over due to wind movements.
- the parasol is thus no longer fixed by means of a dozen kilos heavy base on the ground, but rather the attachment via rollers in rails. Not all rollers used to move the sunshade must be anchored in the rail of the rail device, at least one roller in a rail is sufficient. If further rollers are provided for locomotion of the screen, they can also be unrolled outside the rail, for example on the terrace floor or the ground.
- the stand can be constructed with a minimum weight, it merely has to ensure the transmission of power from the roll to the screen. Therefore, for example, a light metal such as aluminum can be used for the construction.
- a light metal such as aluminum can be used for the construction.
- the weight of the umbrella including the stand can be reduced to a fraction of the previous total weight, which makes the umbrella extremely easy to move.
- the reorientation of the sunshade for tracking the sun's movement is extremely simplified.
- the actual support is provided by the subsoil itself, which, like the terrace, effortlessly exceeds the above-mentioned mass of 180kg and so, given the sufficient stability of the rails, provides even greater stability.
- the rail device may be bent and shaped as a circular arc perimeter segment. It is understood, of course, that each individual rail is bent and shaped as a circular arc perimeter segment. Due to the bending of the rails it is achieved that the screen, provided it is to achieve maximum shadow in the upper part of the stem was angled, the further movement is automatically changed from the angular position ago so that at any time of the day a maximum shadow is achieved.
- the opening of the rail can face upwards.
- the width of the rail can be reduced, so that the required installation space is minimized. This is particularly useful when retrofitting the rail device, as the rails are then easier to insert in already laid terrace tile structures.
- the rail may have holes / openings on the side facing the bottom or downwards, which allow water and dirt particles to fall through downwards. The holes / openings are appropriate to be sized so that the rail or its stability is not unduly weakened.
- the invention relates to a sliding device for a sunshade having at least two struts which enclose a predetermined angle with each other, wherein it has at least one roller which is insertable and movable in a C-shaped rail of a rail device. Accordingly, the displacement device is not pressed by gravity onto the ground, but is anchored by the rollers in the rails.
- two crossed struts are to be provided, wherein the base area spanned by the struts comprises at least one triangle or quadrangle.
- the struts may for example be arranged T, L or X-shaped.
- the X-shape can be designed so that the struts substantially enclose a right angle and the crossing point of the struts or the end points of a strut are arranged on one or two rails. At the crossing point or the end points, movable rollers are mounted in the rails. Alternatively, the included angle can be over or under 90 °, depending on your view. The end points of both struts are then provided with rollers movable in the rails and the sunshade is mounted on the crossing point of the struts.
- the displacement device can have as a strut a cross member and a substantially perpendicular thereto arranged longitudinal strut. These can form a T or L shape in addition to the described X-shape.
- the shifter no longer has to secure the parasol by force of weight against tipping, it can be much more compact and constructed with lighter materials than those from the DE 202009017625 U1 known displacement device. As a result, the area occupied by the displacement device can be reduced to less than 0.1 m 2 .
- anodized aluminum can be used for the rails, which makes them more resistant to abrasion and can be adapted by the color to the surrounding soil such as the terrace covering.
- the rolling surface of the roller made of plastic or rubber.
- the friction can be reduced within the rail when rolling, whereby the movement of the parasol is further facilitated.
- the squeaking noises that can occur when rubbing metal on metal can be avoided.
- the number of rollers can also be selected depending on the maximum load capacity of the displacement device. The more roles are provided, the better distributed the weight of the parasol and the heavier the umbrella can be. In particular, a role below the point of support of the parasol on the displacing device increases the overall stability of the umbrella stand.
- the displacement device may comprise a holder for sunshades, which is adaptable to the diameter of the standpipe of the parasol.
- a holder for example consist of an adjusting screw, at the end within the holder is a curved plate in the form of a cylinder perimeter segment.
- This plate itself is rotatably mounted on the adjusting screw, which is why the plate can be moved by rotation from outside within the holder.
- This allows all standpipes, which can basically be incorporated into the holder, fix by means of the plate. As a result, almost all existing parasols can continue to be used with the displacement device.
- the displacement device may have a tilting aid for tipping over the sunshade, which cushions a tilting of the sunshade by means of a gas spring.
- the gas spring is attached to two hinged pipes and acts when pushed together due to a folding of the parasol damping.
- the pipes are pipe sections of the standpipe of the parasol.
- the gas spring uses a pressurized gas to provide the spring force.
- the gas spring makes it possible that the screen can be tilted to expand without the risk of falling when loosening a corresponding lock immediately.
- the gas spring can also be used to the umbrella safely and without much physical exertion to be able to lay aside quickly, without removing the screen from the bracket. This allows the rapid folding, for example, in a storm or the simplified dismantling during prolonged absence.
- the displacement device can have two longitudinal struts and one transverse strut, wherein the longitudinal struts can be moved essentially via one respective rail.
- the sunshade can be arranged in principle at any point of the transverse strut or one of the longitudinal struts or the holder of the parasol.
- the holder of the parasol is located on one of the two crossing points of the longitudinal and transverse struts so as to avoid unnecessary leverage.
- the so-called free longitudinal strut can then also have a smaller length than the longitudinal strut on which the holder of the parasol is attached.
- At least one longitudinal strut can have at least one double slide carriage.
- Double Rollers have four in a rail movable rollers and allow improved fixation and improved running characteristics of the displacement device on the rail, which also contributes to increase the stability and safety.
- the displacement device may comprise at least one run on a rail roller.
- the roller may have a guide spring, but this is unnecessary due to the existing anyway leadership of the displacement device when using two rails.
- the displacement device may have a locking device for locking the displacement device.
- a locking device for example in the form of a compression spring with engaging from below into the rail brake shoes. It can also be simple locking devices are used for example in the form of locking screws, but compression springs can be adjusted so that they can be solved with a certain force. This makes it possible to solve the compression spring, for example, by draining, the force to be applied can be adjusted so that only young people and adults bring the necessary weight to achieve a solution of the compression spring. This will prevent children from inadvertently releasing the compression spring.
- the design of the locking device as a compression spring thus allows a dirt-resistant locking, which also has the advantage that the locking effect is enhanced, for example, in attacking wind.
- the compression spring can be equipped with a releasable pedal. The pedal for releasing the lock can by a Plug-in connection are introduced into the locking mechanism. Thus, the displacement of the parasol by unauthorized persons, for example in restaurants by removing the pedal can be prevented.
- the cross strut may be adjustable in length.
- all cross braces must be adjustable in length in order to adapt the displacement device to different track distances can.
- the rail distances vary, for example, with decking board widths or tile sizes, provided that the rails are created when you create a new terrace. In this case, then no longer the tiles or floorboards must be adapted to the rails, but the rails are simply each incorporated between two rows of tiles. It is then irrelevant how wide the tiles are exactly. Only due to the adjustability of the cross braces given minimum value and maximum value must not be exceeded or exceeded, but this is easily feasible.
- transverse struts may consist, for example, of an inner tube and an outer tube, the inner tube being fastened to one longitudinal strut and the outer tube to the other longitudinal strut.
- the inner tube is inserted into the outer tube for mounting and is simply moved to the correct position.
- the cross strut may be provided a Querbarangenarrettechnik, but it is also conceivable to leave the cross strut without locking, since it is anyway fixed on the rollers and the longitudinal struts anyway. It is only for the sake of completeness pointed out that this configuration is particularly helpful in a rail device with two rails, which is why it can be assumed that two longitudinal struts.
- the displacement device may comprise at least one brushing device for cleaning a rail surface or rail inner surface.
- a brushing device for cleaning foliage that is on the track surface for a long time, for example, by the displacement device itself or by persons pushed into the rail. If the contamination is already inside the rail, a brushing device inside the rail can prevent it from getting into the rollers. The dirt is then pushed to the end of the rail before the shifter, where it is then deposited. When accumulating larger amounts of protection then only the rail ends are to be cleaned, whereby the maintenance can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, jamming or other failure of the rollers can be avoided, which also reduces the maintenance of the displacement device.
- the brushing devices can be designed as passive or active brushing devices.
- Passive brushing devices are rigidly connected to the displacing device and are displaced with the displacing device.
- active brushing devices are rotatably mounted and can be driven via a toothed wheel attached to the displacement device, which is connected, for example, to a roller. By this rotational movement, the cleaning effect is increased.
- the invention relates to an umbrella stand for umbrellas. This is characterized in that it comprises a rail device and a displacement device, both as described above.
- FIG. 1 shows an umbrella stand 1 in overall view.
- the umbrella stand 1 consists of rails 2 and a displacement device 3. Since the rails 2 have a C-shaped profile in which at least a part of the rollers of the displacement device 3, namely the rollers 5, is moved, the displacement device 3 without additional weight or liquid tank get along for the weighting.
- the sunshade 4 is simply attached to the displacement device 3, wherein the tipping of the sunshade 4 is prevented by the anchoring of the rollers 5 in the rails 2.
- the structure is designed so that the sunshade 4 is positioned on the displacement device 3, that the displacement device 3 together with the sunshade 4 is stable without external force and does not tip over.
- the sunshade 4 is preferably positioned at a crossing point of the transverse axis 6 and one of the longitudinal axes 7 or 8.
- the overall structure of the displacement device 3 and sunshade 4 is in a stable position, which only to compensate for external force such as a gust of wind or the force that may occur when moving the displacement device.
- the rolling resistance of the rollers 5 of the displacement device 3 is reduced by the rails 2, whereby the displacement device 3 is easily movable.
- the use of the rails 2 also allows the shifting device 3 to be automatically driven by means of a motor, as will be described in more detail below.
- FIG. 2 shows a rail 2 in cross-sectional view.
- the opening 9 is located at the top of the rail 2, so that the connection 10 between the roller 5 and the frame of the displacement device 3 can be passed.
- the opening 9 is to be dimensioned such that the roller 5 is not transmitted and thus anchors the displacement device 3 and the parasol 4 in the rail 2.
- the material of the rail 2 may be made of metal or plastic, but the bending resistance of the rail also depends on the choice of material, which is particularly important on the upper side.
- angles or stiffeners can be installed, which consist of a heavier and more stable material, while the main load of the rail is made of a lightweight material such as aluminum or plastic.
- FIG. 3 shows an alternative embodiment of the rail 2, which has the advantage that it has a design better stability than the rail according to FIG. 2 ,
- the rail 2 it is advantageous if on the side of the opening 9, an L-shaped or inverted L-shaped extension of the rail exists to protect the connecting part 10.
- rollers 5 can be moved on the underside of the rail 2. In the presence of other rollers on the top of the rail 2 or the rails 2, for example rollers 39 as described in more detail below, but the rollers 5 can also roll on the inner surface of the top of the rail 2, so as to a greater fixation of the displacement device 3 to reach.
- a C-shaped design of the rail is understood to mean not only rounded configurations but in particular also angular configurations. Also, the edges of the rail at the opening may be extended inwardly or downwardly.
- FIG. 4 shows a known per se sketchbittbaren sunshade in cross-sectional view. This has an at least two-part standpipe 12, which consists of a lower pipe section 13 and an upper pipe section 14. For the actual shadow cast is the in FIG. 4 clamped screen cover 15 is provided.
- FIG. 5 shows an embodiment of the umbrella stand 1 with a parasol 4 in different positions, with which an optimization of the shadow is possible.
- the sun 16 is known to migrate from east to west during the day. Due to the described path The shadow 17 generated by a sunshade 4 wanders around the sunshade. This principle is exploited for example in sundials. In parasols, however, the movement of the sun 16 leads to the problem described above that the position of the sunshade 4 is to be aligned with the position of the sun, for example to keep a lounger shaded. Alternatively, of course, can be slipped on the couch, but this is not possible with any object to be shaded. Therefore, the rail 2 or the rails 2 can be bent.
- the bend must at least roughly represent a segment of a circle with the center of the circle at the position of the object to be shaded. This ensures that when moving the parasol 4 by means of the displacement device 3 always the same place is shaded.
- the shadow can be optimized so that the sunshade 4, as in FIG. 4 shown, kinked on the displacement device 3 is mounted. Since the course of the sun does not change from east to west, the displacement device 3 can advantageously have a motor with which the displacement device 3 is automatically positioned as a function of the time of day.
- the corresponding control device can be configured such that, for example, the rail length and other relevant parameters can be entered.
- the tilt angle between lower tube section 13 and upper tube section 14 can also be adjusted by motor control. This setting depends on latitude, for example. At 6 o'clock at the equator an angle of 90 °, at noon an angle of 0 ° and in the evening an angle of 90 ° in order to maximize the shadow. The angle information changes depending on the degree of latitude and can be easily determined. Since it is a plan view, the lower pipe section 13 is not shown.
- an umbrella stand 1 with straight rails 2 in the shadow are optimized by the fact that the orientation of the parasol 4 itself is adjusted.
- another motor for daytime-dependent turning of the sunshade 4th provided.

- each double dolly 20 and rollers 39 which connect the displacement device 3 with the rails 2.
- rollers which roll on the inner and the outer surface of the top of the rail 2
- an improved fixation of the displacement device 3 is achieved.
- the rolling units used are arranged at the end of the longitudinal strut 8 and in the middle of the longitudinal strut 7. This is possible because the longitudinal strut 7 is shorter than the longitudinal strut 8.
- a rolling units can each have a role 5 or a double roller carriage 20 or a combination of Doppelrollwagen 20 and roller 39.
- the resulting three roll units stretch to three Points on a triangular base, on the one hand guarantees the stability of the structure and on the other hand has the best rolling properties.
- a displacement device 3 with four rolling units or general rolling support points could tend to tilt, especially in the case of bumps and corresponding alignment of the rails 2.
- FIG. 8 shows a cross-sectional view of the rail 2, the longitudinal strut 8 and the holder 18 thereon, of which only the adapter plate 30 is shown, and the compression spring 19.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schienenvorrichtung für Sonnenschirme mit wenigstens einer Schiene.The invention relates to a rail device for parasols with at least one rail.
Bei großflächigen Sonnenschirmen zur Beschattung von Terrassen, Schwimmbädern oder Gärten besteht das Problem, dass diese aufgrund ihrer großen Angriffsfläche für Windbewegungen einerseits ausreichend zu befestigen und andererseits aufgrund des Sonnenlaufs zur Umpositionierung trotzdem noch beweglich sind. Bei derartigen Schirmen kann es sich beispielsweise um Mittelstockschirme, knickbare Mittelstockschirme und Ampelschirme handeln. Die Ampelschirme können als Freiarmschirme oder Seitenmastschirme ausgebildet sein. Die Grundfläche im aufgespannten Zustand kann quadratisch, rechteckig, kreisförmig oder oval sein. Daher ist es bekannt, mit Wasser zu befüllende Schirmständer aus Kunststoff auf einer Seite mit Rollen zu versehen, so dass diese auf der anderen Seite hochgehoben und zur Neupositionierung gerollt werden können.
Aus der
From the
Trotzdem ist eine erhebliche Kraft in einer rückenbelastenden, gebückten Körperhaltung nötig, um das zum Beispiel mit Wasser gefüllte Behältnis überhaupt anheben zu können. Daher ist es aus der
Es besteht daher Bedarf an einer Schienenvorrichtung, bei der der Schirm auch ohne Sockelgewichte von ca. 180kg ausreichend befestigt werden kann.There is therefore a need for a rail device in which the screen can be sufficiently secured even without base weights of about 180kg.
Zur Lösung dieses Problems ist erfindungsgemäß eine Schienenvorrichtung nach Anspruch 1 vorgesehen.To solve this problem, a rail device according to
Die Schienenvorrichtung ist bei der Montage fest auf der Terrasse oder dem Rasen zu fixieren. Aufgrund der im Querschnitt vorhandenen C-Form kann eine in der Schiene angeordnete Rolle dazu verwendet werden, die Kraft, mit der die Schiene am Untergrund befestigt ist, auf den Sonnenschirm zu übertragen, wenn dieser aufgrund von Windbewegungen umzukippen droht. Der Sonnenschirm wird also nicht mehr mittels eines Dutzende Kilo schweren Sockels am Boden befestigt, vielmehr erfolgt die Befestigung über Rollen in Schienen. Es müssen nicht alle Rollen, die zur Bewegung des Sonnenschirms verwendet werden, in der Schiene der Schienenvorrichtung verankert sein, wenigstens eine Rolle in einer Schiene reicht aus. Sind weitere Rollen zur Fortbewegung des Schirms vorgesehen, so können diese auch außerhalb der Schiene beispielsweise auf dem Terrassenboden oder dem Erdboden abgerollt werden. Der Ständer kann infolgedessen mit einem minimalen Gewicht konstruiert werden, er muss lediglich die Kraftübertragung von der Rolle zum Schirm gewährleisten. Daher kann beispielsweise auch ein Leichtmetall wie Aluminium zur Konstruktion herangezogen werden. Infolgedessen kann das Gewicht des Schirmes samt Ständer auf einen Bruchteil des vorherigen Gesamtgewichts reduziert werden, wodurch sich der Sonnenschirm extrem leicht bewegen lässt. Damit wird das Neuausrichten des Sonnenschirms zur Nachverfolgung der Sonnenbewegung extrem vereinfacht. Den eigentlichen Halt liefert der Untergrund selbst, der wie die Terrasse die oben genannte Masse von 180kg mühelos überschreitet und so, die genügende Stabilität der Schienen vorausgesetzt, damit eine noch größere Stabilität bietet.The rail device is to be firmly fixed on the terrace or the lawn during assembly. Due to the cross-section C-shape, a roller arranged in the rail can be used to transfer the force with which the rail is fastened to the substrate to the parasol if it threatens to tip over due to wind movements. The parasol is thus no longer fixed by means of a dozen kilos heavy base on the ground, but rather the attachment via rollers in rails. Not all rollers used to move the sunshade must be anchored in the rail of the rail device, at least one roller in a rail is sufficient. If further rollers are provided for locomotion of the screen, they can also be unrolled outside the rail, for example on the terrace floor or the ground. As a result, the stand can be constructed with a minimum weight, it merely has to ensure the transmission of power from the roll to the screen. Therefore, for example, a light metal such as aluminum can be used for the construction. As a result, the weight of the umbrella including the stand can be reduced to a fraction of the previous total weight, which makes the umbrella extremely easy to move. Thus, the reorientation of the sunshade for tracking the sun's movement is extremely simplified. The actual support is provided by the subsoil itself, which, like the terrace, effortlessly exceeds the above-mentioned mass of 180kg and so, given the sufficient stability of the rails, provides even greater stability.
Vorzugsweise kann die Schienenvorrichtung gebogen und als Kreisbogenumfangsegment geformt sein. Dabei ist selbstverständlich gemeint, dass jede einzelne Schiene gebogen und als Kreisbogenumfangsegment geformt ist. Durch die Biegung der Schienen wird erreicht, dass der Schirm, sofern er zur Erzielung eines maximalen Schattenwurfs im oberen Bereich des Stiels abgewinkelt wurde, bei der Weiterbewegung automatisch von der Winkelstellung her so geändert wird, dass zu jeder Tageszeit ein maximaler Schattenwurf erzielt wird.Preferably, the rail device may be bent and shaped as a circular arc perimeter segment. It is understood, of course, that each individual rail is bent and shaped as a circular arc perimeter segment. Due to the bending of the rails it is achieved that the screen, provided it is to achieve maximum shadow in the upper part of the stem was angled, the further movement is automatically changed from the angular position ago so that at any time of the day a maximum shadow is achieved.
Vorzugsweise kann die Öffnung der Schiene nach oben weisen. Bei dieser Ausrichtung der Öffnung kann im Gegensatz zu einer Öffnung der Schiene zur Seite hin die Breite der Schiene verringert werden, so dass der benötigte Einbauraum minimiert wird. Dies ist insbesondere beim nachträglichen Einbau der Schienenvorrichtung praktisch, da die Schienen dann leichter in bereits verlegte Terrassenplattenaufbauten einzufügen sind. Alternativ oder zusätzlich kann die Schiene auf der zum Boden bzw. nach unten weisenden Seite Löcher/Öffnungen aufweisen, die Wasser und Schmutzpartikel nach unten durchfallen lassen. Die Löcher/Öffnungen sind zweckmäßig so zu bemessen, dass die Schiene bzw. deren Stabilität nicht übermäßig geschwächt wird.Preferably, the opening of the rail can face upwards. In this orientation of the opening, in contrast to an opening of the rail to the side, the width of the rail can be reduced, so that the required installation space is minimized. This is particularly useful when retrofitting the rail device, as the rails are then easier to insert in already laid terrace tile structures. Alternatively or additionally, the rail may have holes / openings on the side facing the bottom or downwards, which allow water and dirt particles to fall through downwards. The holes / openings are appropriate to be sized so that the rail or its stability is not unduly weakened.
Daneben betrifft die Erfindung eine Verschiebevorrichtung für einen Sonnenschirm mit wenigstens zwei Streben, die einen vorgegebenen Winkel miteinander einschließen, wobei sie wenigstens eine Rolle aufweist, die in eine C-förmige Schiene einer Schienenvorrichtung einbringbar und darin verfahrbar ist. Die Verschiebevorrichtung wird dementsprechend nicht mittels Gewichtskraft auf den Boden gepresst, vielmehr ist sie durch die Rollen in den Schienen verankert. Zur Herstellung einer stabilen Grundfläche sind zwei gekreuzte Streben vorzusehen, wobei die durch die Streben aufgespannte Grundfläche wenigstens ein Dreieck oder Viereck umfasst. Die Streben können beispielsweise T, L- oder X-förmig angeordnet sein. Dabei kann die X-Form so gestaltet sein, dass die Streben im Wesentlichen einen rechten Winkel einschließen und der Kreuzungspunkt der Streben oder die Endpunkte einer Strebe über einer bzw. zwei Schienen angeordnet sind. Am Kreuzungspunkt oder den Endpunkten sind dann in den Schienen verfahrbare Rollen montiert. Alternativ kann der eingeschlossene Winkel 90° je nach Sichtweise über- oder unterschreiten. Die Endpunkte beider Streben sind dann mit in den Schienen verfahrbaren Rollen versehen und der Sonnenschirm wird auf dem Kreuzungspunkt der Streben montiert.In addition, the invention relates to a sliding device for a sunshade having at least two struts which enclose a predetermined angle with each other, wherein it has at least one roller which is insertable and movable in a C-shaped rail of a rail device. Accordingly, the displacement device is not pressed by gravity onto the ground, but is anchored by the rollers in the rails. To produce a stable base area, two crossed struts are to be provided, wherein the base area spanned by the struts comprises at least one triangle or quadrangle. The struts may for example be arranged T, L or X-shaped. In this case, the X-shape can be designed so that the struts substantially enclose a right angle and the crossing point of the struts or the end points of a strut are arranged on one or two rails. At the crossing point or the end points, movable rollers are mounted in the rails. Alternatively, the included angle can be over or under 90 °, depending on your view. The end points of both struts are then provided with rollers movable in the rails and the sunshade is mounted on the crossing point of the struts.
Vorzugsweise kann die Verschiebevorrichtung als Streben eine Querstrebe und eine im Wesentlichen senkrecht dazu angeordneten Längsstrebe aufweisen. Diese können neben der beschriebenen X-Form auch eine T- oder L-Form bilden. Die T-Form, bei der die Querstrebe in der Mitte der Längsstrebe befestigt ist, ist im Hinblick auf die wirkenden Kräfteverhältnisse vorzuziehen.Preferably, the displacement device can have as a strut a cross member and a substantially perpendicular thereto arranged longitudinal strut. These can form a T or L shape in addition to the described X-shape. The T-shape, in which the transverse strut is fixed in the middle of the longitudinal strut, is preferable in view of the force relationships.
Da die Verschiebevorrichtung den Sonnenschirm nicht mehr mittels Gewichtskraft gegen ein Umkippen sichern muss, kann sie viel kompakter und auch mit leichteren Materialien konstruiert werden als die aus der
Vorzugsweise kann die Rollfläche der Rolle aus Kunststoff oder Gummi bestehen. Durch diese Materialien kann die Reibung innerhalb der Schiene beim Rollen verringert werden, wodurch das Verschieben des Sonnenschirms nochmals erleichtert wird. Auch lassen sich die Quietschgeräusche vermeiden, die beim Reiben von Metall auf Metall entstehen können. Die Anzahl der Rollen kann auch in Abhängigkeit der maximalen Tragkraft der Verschiebevorrichtung gewählt werden. Je mehr Rollen vorgesehen sind, desto besser verteilt sich das Gewicht des Sonnenschirmes und desto schwerer kann der Sonnenschirm ausfallen. Insbesondere eine Rolle unterhalb des Auflagepunkts des Sonnenschirms auf der Verschiebevorrichtung erhöht die Gesamtstabilität des Schirmständers.Preferably, the rolling surface of the roller made of plastic or rubber. By these materials, the friction can be reduced within the rail when rolling, whereby the movement of the parasol is further facilitated. Also, the squeaking noises that can occur when rubbing metal on metal can be avoided. The number of rollers can also be selected depending on the maximum load capacity of the displacement device. The more roles are provided, the better distributed the weight of the parasol and the heavier the umbrella can be. In particular, a role below the point of support of the parasol on the displacing device increases the overall stability of the umbrella stand.
Mit besonderem Vorteil kann die Verschiebevorrichtung eine Halterung für Sonnenschirme aufweisen, die an den Durchmesser des Standrohrs des Sonnenschirms anpassbar ist. Eine derartige Halterung kann beispielsweise aus einer Verstellschraube bestehen, an deren Ende innerhalb der Halterung sich eine gebogene Platte in Form eines Zylinderumfangsegmentes befindet. Diese Platte selbst ist drehbar an der Verstellschraube befestigt, weshalb die Platte durch Drehung von außen innerhalb der Halterung verschoben werden kann. Damit lassen sich alle Standrohre, die sich grundsätzlich in die Halterung einbringen lassen, mittels der Platte fixieren. Dadurch lassen sich fast alle bereits vorhandenen Sonnenschirme mit der Verschiebevorrichtung weiter verwenden.With particular advantage, the displacement device may comprise a holder for sunshades, which is adaptable to the diameter of the standpipe of the parasol. Such a holder may for example consist of an adjusting screw, at the end within the holder is a curved plate in the form of a cylinder perimeter segment. This plate itself is rotatably mounted on the adjusting screw, which is why the plate can be moved by rotation from outside within the holder. This allows all standpipes, which can basically be incorporated into the holder, fix by means of the plate. As a result, almost all existing parasols can continue to be used with the displacement device.
Vorzugsweise kann die Verschiebevorrichtung eine Kipphilfe zum Umkippen des Sonnenschirms aufweisen, die mittels einer Gasfeder ein Kippen des Sonnenschirms abfedert. Die Gasfeder ist an zwei mittels Scharnier verbundenen Rohren befestigt und wirkt beim Zusammenschieben infolge eines Umklappens des Sonnenschirms dämpfend. Die Rohre sind Rohrabschnitte des Standrohrs des Sonnenschirms. Die Gasfeder nutzt ein unter Druck stehendes Gas zur Bereitstellung der Federkraft. Die Gasfeder ermöglicht es dabei, dass der Schirm zum Ausbau gekippt werden kann, ohne dass beim Lösen einer entsprechenden Arretierung sofort die Gefahr des Umfallens besteht. Weiterhin kann die Gasfeder auch benutzt werden, um den Schirm sicher und ohne große körperliche Anstrengung schnell zur Seite umlegen zu können, ganz ohne den Schirm aus der Halterung auszubauen. Dies erlaubt das rasche Umklappen beispielsweise bei einem Unwetter oder das vereinfachte Abbauen bei längerer Abwesenheit.Preferably, the displacement device may have a tilting aid for tipping over the sunshade, which cushions a tilting of the sunshade by means of a gas spring. The gas spring is attached to two hinged pipes and acts when pushed together due to a folding of the parasol damping. The pipes are pipe sections of the standpipe of the parasol. The gas spring uses a pressurized gas to provide the spring force. The gas spring makes it possible that the screen can be tilted to expand without the risk of falling when loosening a corresponding lock immediately. Furthermore, the gas spring can also be used to the umbrella safely and without much physical exertion to be able to lay aside quickly, without removing the screen from the bracket. This allows the rapid folding, for example, in a storm or the simplified dismantling during prolonged absence.
Mit besonderem Vorteil kann die Verschiebevorrichtung zwei Längsstreben und eine Querstrebe aufweisen, wobei die Längsstreben im Wesentlichen über jeweils eine Schiene verfahrbar sind. Dabei kann der Sonnenschirm grundsätzlich an jeder Stelle der Querstrebe oder auch einer der Längsstreben bzw. die Halterung des Sonnenschirms angeordnet werden. Bevorzugt ist jedoch, dass die Halterung des Sonnenschirms sich auf einem der beiden Kreuzungspunkte von Längs- und Querstrebe befindet, um so unnötige Hebelkräfte zu vermeiden. Die sozusagen freie Längsstrebe kann dann auch eine geringere Länge aufweisen als die Längsstrebe, auf der die Halterung des Sonnenschirms befestigt ist. Dieser Gesamtaufbau ermöglicht, wie bereits beschrieben, eine verbesserte Kräfteverteilung, wodurch wiederum die Sicherheit erhöht werden kann.With particular advantage, the displacement device can have two longitudinal struts and one transverse strut, wherein the longitudinal struts can be moved essentially via one respective rail. In this case, the sunshade can be arranged in principle at any point of the transverse strut or one of the longitudinal struts or the holder of the parasol. However, it is preferred that the holder of the parasol is located on one of the two crossing points of the longitudinal and transverse struts so as to avoid unnecessary leverage. The so-called free longitudinal strut can then also have a smaller length than the longitudinal strut on which the holder of the parasol is attached. This overall design allows, as already described, an improved distribution of forces, which in turn can be increased security.
Mit besonderem Vorteil kann wenigstens eine Längsstrebe wenigstens einen Doppelrollwagen aufweisen. Doppelrollwägen besitzen vier in einer Schiene verfahrbare Rollen und erlauben eine verbesserte Fixierung und verbesserte Laufeigenschaften der Verschiebevorrichtung an der Schiene, was ebenfalls zur Erhöhung der Stabilität und Sicherheit beiträgt.With particular advantage, at least one longitudinal strut can have at least one double slide carriage. Double Rollers have four in a rail movable rollers and allow improved fixation and improved running characteristics of the displacement device on the rail, which also contributes to increase the stability and safety.
Vorzugsweise kann die Verschiebevorrichtung wenigstens eine auf einer Schiene verfahrbare Laufrolle aufweisen. Die Laufrolle kann eine Führungsfeder aufweisen, diese ist aufgrund der sowieso vorhandenen Führung der Verschiebevorrichtung bei Verwendung zweier Schienen aber unnötig.Preferably, the displacement device may comprise at least one run on a rail roller. The roller may have a guide spring, but this is unnecessary due to the existing anyway leadership of the displacement device when using two rails.
Mit besonderem Vorteil kann die Verschiebeeinrichtung eine Arretiervorrichtung zum Feststellen der Verschiebevorrichtung aufweisen. Wie bereits ausgeführt wurde, erlaubt die erfindungsgemäße Verschiebevorrichtung ein extrem leichtes und komfortables Verschieben des Sonnenschirms. Damit dieser nicht bei der geringsten Windbewegung weggerollt wird, ist eine Arretiervorrichtung beispielsweise in Form einer Druckfeder mit von unten in die Schiene eingreifenden Bremsbacken vorzusehen. Es können auch einfache Arretiervorrichtungen beispielsweise in Form von Feststellschrauben verwendet werden, jedoch können Druckfedern so eingestellt werden, dass sie mit einer bestimmten Kraft lösbar sind. Dadurch ist es möglich, die Druckfeder beispielsweise durch Drauftreten zu lösen, wobei die aufzuwendende Kraft so eingestellt werden kann, dass nur Jugendliche und Erwachsene das nötige Gewicht mitbringen, um eine Lösung der Druckfeder zu erreichen. Dadurch wird vermieden, dass Kinder versehentlich die Druckfeder lösen. Dadurch, dass die Druckfedern alleine mittels Gewichtskraft lösbar sind, wird auch vermieden, dass Personen mit geringeren Kraftreserven die Lösung der Arretiervorrichtung nicht vollbringen. Dieses Problem kann beispielsweise bei Feststellschrauben bestehen, die von Personen mit großer Kraft derart festgezogen werden können, dass sie für andere nicht mehr lösbar sind. Auch könnte das Gewinde durch häufiges Benutzen beschädigt werden. Die Ausgestaltung der Arretiervorrichtung als Druckfeder erlaubt somit eine schmutzunempfindliche Arretierung, die zudem den Vorteil aufweist, dass die Arretierwirkung beispielsweise bei angreifendem Wind noch verstärkt wird. Die Druckfeder kann mit einem lösbaren Pedal ausgestattet sein. Das Pedal zum Lösen der Arretierung kann durch eine Steckverbindung in den Arretiermechanismus eingeführt werden. So kann das Verschieben des Sonnenschirms durch Unbefugte beispielsweise in Gaststätten durch Entfernen des Pedals verhindert werden.With particular advantage, the displacement device may have a locking device for locking the displacement device. As already stated, the sliding device according to the invention allows an extremely easy and comfortable shifting of the sunshade. So that this is not rolled away at the slightest wind movement, a locking device is provided, for example in the form of a compression spring with engaging from below into the rail brake shoes. It can also be simple locking devices are used for example in the form of locking screws, but compression springs can be adjusted so that they can be solved with a certain force. This makes it possible to solve the compression spring, for example, by draining, the force to be applied can be adjusted so that only young people and adults bring the necessary weight to achieve a solution of the compression spring. This will prevent children from inadvertently releasing the compression spring. The fact that the compression springs are solvable by weight alone, it is also avoided that people with lower power reserves do not accomplish the solution of the locking device. This problem may, for example, consist of locking screws that can be tightened by persons with great force so that they are no longer solvable for others. Also, the thread could be damaged by frequent use. The design of the locking device as a compression spring thus allows a dirt-resistant locking, which also has the advantage that the locking effect is enhanced, for example, in attacking wind. The compression spring can be equipped with a releasable pedal. The pedal for releasing the lock can by a Plug-in connection are introduced into the locking mechanism. Thus, the displacement of the parasol by unauthorized persons, for example in restaurants by removing the pedal can be prevented.
Vorzugsweise kann die Querstrebe längenverstellbar sein. Bei Vorsehen mehrerer Querstreben müssen selbstverständlich alle Querstreben längenverstellbar sein, um die Verschiebevorrichtung an unterschiedliche Schienenabstände anpassen zu können. Die Schienenabstände variieren beispielsweise mit Terrassendielenbreiten oder Fliesengrößen, sofern die Schienen beim Neuanlegen einer Terrasse mit angelegt werden. In diesem Fall müssen dann nicht mehr die Fliesen oder Dielen an die Schienen angepasst werden, vielmehr werden die Schienen einfach jeweils zwischen zwei Reihen Fliesen eingearbeitet. Dabei ist es dann unerheblich, wie breit die Fliesen genau sind. Lediglich aufgrund der Verstellbarkeit der Querstreben vorgegebener Minimalwert und Maximalwert dürfen nicht unter- und überschritten werden, was jedoch leicht realisierbar ist. Zur Realisierung der Längenverstellbarkeit der Querstreben können diese beispielsweise aus einem Innenrohr und einem Außenrohr bestehen, wobei das Innenrohr an der einen Längsstrebe und das Außenrohr an der anderen Längsstrebe befestigt sind. Das Innenrohr wird zur Montage in das Außenrohr gesteckt und wird einfach an die richtige Position verschoben. Zur Arretierung der Querstrebe kann eine Querstangenarretierung vorgesehen sein, es ist jedoch auch denkbar, die Querstrebe ohne Arretierung zu belassen, da sie letzen Endes über die Rollen und die Längsstreben sowieso fixiert ist. Es sei lediglich der Vollständigkeit halber darauf hingewiesen, dass diese Ausgestaltung insbesondere bei einer Schienenvorrichtung mit zwei Schienen hilfreich ist, weshalb auch vom Vorhandensein zweier Längsstreben ausgegangen werden kann.Preferably, the cross strut may be adjustable in length. When providing a plurality of cross braces of course, all cross braces must be adjustable in length in order to adapt the displacement device to different track distances can. The rail distances vary, for example, with decking board widths or tile sizes, provided that the rails are created when you create a new terrace. In this case, then no longer the tiles or floorboards must be adapted to the rails, but the rails are simply each incorporated between two rows of tiles. It is then irrelevant how wide the tiles are exactly. Only due to the adjustability of the cross braces given minimum value and maximum value must not be exceeded or exceeded, but this is easily feasible. To realize the length adjustability of the transverse struts, these may consist, for example, of an inner tube and an outer tube, the inner tube being fastened to one longitudinal strut and the outer tube to the other longitudinal strut. The inner tube is inserted into the outer tube for mounting and is simply moved to the correct position. For locking the cross strut may be provided a Querbarangenarretierung, but it is also conceivable to leave the cross strut without locking, since it is anyway fixed on the rollers and the longitudinal struts anyway. It is only for the sake of completeness pointed out that this configuration is particularly helpful in a rail device with two rails, which is why it can be assumed that two longitudinal struts.
Vorteilhafterweise kann die Verschiebevorrichtung wenigstens eine Bürstvorrichtung zum Reinigen einer Schienenoberfläche oder Schieneninnenfläche umfassen. Dadurch kann vermieden werden, dass beispielsweise Laub, das sich längere Zeit auf der Schienenoberfläche befindet, beispielsweise durch die Verschiebevorrichtung selbst oder auch durch Personen in die Schiene hineingeschoben wird. Befindet sich die Verschmutzung bereits innerhalb der Schiene, kann eine Bürstvorrichtung innerhalb der Schiene verhindern, dass diese in die Rollen gerät. Die Verschmutzung wird dann bis zum Ende der Schiene vor der Verschiebevorrichtung hergeschoben, wo sie dann abgelagert wird. Bei Ansammlung größerer Schutzmengen sind dann lediglich die Schienenenden zu reinigen, wodurch der Wartungsaufwand erheblich verringert werden kann. Weiterhin kann auch ein Verklemmen oder sonstiger Ausfall der Rollen vermieden werden, was ebenfalls den Wartungsaufwand der Verschiebevorrichtung verringert. Die Bürstvorrichtungen können als passive oder aktive Bürstvorrichtungen ausgebildet sein. Passive Bürstvorrichtungen sind starr mit der Verschiebevorrichtung verbunden und werden mit der Verschiebevorrichtung mitverschoben. Aktive Bürstvorrichtungen sind dagegen drehbar angebracht und können über ein an der Verschiebevorrichtung angebrachtes Zahnrad, das beispielsweise mit einer Laufrolle verbunden ist, angetrieben werden. Durch diese rotatorische Bewegung wird die Reinigungswirkung noch erhöht.Advantageously, the displacement device may comprise at least one brushing device for cleaning a rail surface or rail inner surface. This can be avoided, for example, foliage that is on the track surface for a long time, for example, by the displacement device itself or by persons pushed into the rail. If the contamination is already inside the rail, a brushing device inside the rail can prevent it from getting into the rollers. The dirt is then pushed to the end of the rail before the shifter, where it is then deposited. When accumulating larger amounts of protection then only the rail ends are to be cleaned, whereby the maintenance can be significantly reduced. Furthermore, jamming or other failure of the rollers can be avoided, which also reduces the maintenance of the displacement device. The brushing devices can be designed as passive or active brushing devices. Passive brushing devices are rigidly connected to the displacing device and are displaced with the displacing device. On the other hand, active brushing devices are rotatably mounted and can be driven via a toothed wheel attached to the displacement device, which is connected, for example, to a roller. By this rotational movement, the cleaning effect is increased.
Daneben betrifft die Erfindung einen Schirmständer für Sonnenschirme. Dieser zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass er eine Schienenvorrichtung und eine Verschiebevorrichtung, beide wie oben beschrieben, aufweist.In addition, the invention relates to an umbrella stand for umbrellas. This is characterized in that it comprises a rail device and a displacement device, both as described above.

Bei Vorhandensein von weiteren Rollen auf der Oberseite der Schiene 2 oder der Schienen 2, beispielsweise Laufrollen 39 wie weiter unten ausführlicher beschrieben, können die Rollen 5 aber auch auf der Innenfläche der Oberseite der Schiene 2 abrollen, um so eine größere Fixierung der Verschiebevorrichtung 3 zu erreichen.The
