Description

Technical area

The invention relates to a large umbrella with a binding system, in particular a large umbrella with a textile fabric roof, according to the preamble of claim 1.

State of the art

Large umbrellas must be closed in adverse climatic conditions, in particular in strong winds and thunderstorms approaching, in order to protect the screen against damage, but also to protect the surrounding persons and objects from the dangers of e.g. to keep the umbrella moving through the wind.

From the DE 20 2008 005 081 U1 is a corresponding security system known with which a large screen can be secured in the closed state. The application of the security system of DE 20 2008 005 081 U1 May be suitable for umbrellas up to a certain size. In the case of large rectangular screens, however, the closing height of the short struts may be so high that the rounding of the umbrella sections and the correct attachment of a binding belt-as in the US Pat DE 20 2008 005 081 U1 suggested - not without aids, such as a ladder, is possible.

From the patent application JP-2012/192073 A is known a binding system for a hand screen, which has a ring 21 and a securing device. The ring is pushed on the closed screen of the crown in the direction of strut ends 10 and holds there the fabric pieces together. To open the umbrella, the ring is pushed up over the crown, whereupon the umbrella struts can be spread and the panels are released. The safety device prevents the ring from being lost. The fuse element consists of one or more tapes or cords, which limit the range of motion of the ring, or of limiting elements such as a Rondelle, which is greater than the passage width of the ring. The bands do not serve to hold the screen fabric together and are neither wound in opposite directions nor crossed around the screen. For a large umbrella offers the JP-2012/192073 A due to the dimensions and weights, no solution or solution approaches.

Presentation of the invention

The object of the invention is therefore to propose a binding system for a large screen, in which even smaller persons can bind the screen comfortably and without climbing aid and correctly, so that no wind damage in the sense described above, ie damage to the screen, as well as the surrounding people and Objects arise.

The object of the invention is achieved by a large screen with a binding system according to claim 1. The measures of the invention result in that the binding belt or the tie straps in the open state of the screen, so preferably in the provision position of the straps lie on a roof strut and are fixed there in the upper and lower attachment point. In the closed state of the screen, when the security system is activated, the binding harness or the tie straps are spirally wound around the umbrella from the upper attachment point to the middle attachment point and fastened there.

The binding system of the large umbrella of the invention consists of several bands with which the closed screen in opposite directions, that is wrapped in a cross-over from top to bottom and thus hold the fabric together. The binding system of the present invention has stepped change attachment points B and C to which the tie straps 1 are attached with the umbrella open (point B) or bonded umbrella (point C). Furthermore, the invention comes without a moving tool (eg ring), which is the umbrella pole axis 2 along, between the upper end 3 and shield struts tips 10 would have to be moved. Furthermore, the invention does not require a security device, which limits the range of motion.

Basically, you can use a single tie. It is advantageous if the tie straps consist of two or even more sections. These cuts can be made e.g. be distributed over two opposite or more roof struts of the large umbrella.

Normally, it is expedient for the binding straps to be provided for a full 360 ° wrapping of the umbrella by assigning the three fastening points for a binding segment of the same roof strut. If, for certain applications, more or less than an entire wrapping of the screen is appropriate, the middle attachment point can be mounted on another roof strut.

An advantageous embodiment can be provided by the tie straps are guided in two layers on the respective roof strut and the two strap parts can wrap around the screen symmetrically in opposite directions.

In the upper attachment point, it will be advantageous if the tie straps there have an eyelet or loop, which fixes the tie strap by means of a fixing screw on a mounting bracket attached to the roof strut.

At the middle and lower attachment points advantageously a mounting bracket are also provided, which are provided with one or more clamping rings with which the binding straps, which have adhesive closures at their lower ends, can be braced. Alternatively, however, buckles, etc. may be provided.

It may be particularly advantageous if, in particular, for a large screen in which the cover fabric does not cover the long roof struts, but is attached to the sides of the long roof struts by means of Kederleisten and thus the top of the roof struts is free - the binding system is designed as a retrofit kit ,

A further embodiment results when the large screen is designed such that the cover is stretched over the roof struts. Then it is advantageous if at predetermined, non-displaceable attachment points clamping rings are arranged above the fabric of the large umbrella and are connected through the fabric through with the roof strut.

The above-mentioned as well as the claimed and described in the following embodiments, according to the invention to be used elements are subject to their size, shape design, material usage and their technical conception no special conditions of exception, so that the well-known in the respective field of application selection criteria can apply without restriction.

Ways to carry out the invention

The in FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrated large screen 2 has a binding system with tie straps. In this embodiment, the binding straps 1 are lashed to open the screen 2, so in the staging state on two opposite long corner struts 5, 5 'of the umbrella with a square roof. The attachment points are provided as a solid means with a displaceable and lockable trained mounting bracket 10. The lower attachment points B and B 'are - as in the Figures 1 and 2 shown - in the present embodiment, on the same roof struts we the upper attachment points A and A 'arranged and indeed approximately at the strut end. By this arrangement, the tie straps 1 are in the ready state, ie in the openable screen 2, always perpendicular to the screen 2 and can neither be lost nor misplaced.

In the closed state of the screen 2, the tie straps 1 wrap around the screen 2 and the umbrella cover 5 spirally. They run from the upper attachment point A, A 'to the middle attachment point C, C'. Due to the distribution of the support points along the spirally placed binding straps 1, only little pressure is produced per support point, which substantially reduces the risk of wear of the umbrella cover 8.

In the present embodiment, all three or because of the double design six attachment points A, A ', B, B', C and C 'mounting bracket 10. In the upper attachment point A, A 'of the tie strap 1 is fixed by means of a loop or eyelet 14 and a fixing screw 11. In contrast, the other two (or four other) attachment points B, B 'and C, C' additionally formed as a clamping anchor clamping rings 12, where the ends of the tie straps 1, which - FIG. 5 is shown - can be fixed by means of a hook closure (Velcro) 15 to the clamping rings 12 by the Velcro portion 15b is connected to the hook portion 15a.

As in FIG. 6 is shown, the umbrella cover 8 by means of a Kederleiste on the profiles of the roof struts 5, 5 'attached longitudinally, wherein the profiles have a receiving groove. As a result, the strut top is free in this embodiment of the screen cover 8. This makes it possible to attach the mounting bracket 10 to umbrellas in which the binding system was originally not factory provided, as a retrofit kit.
