It is understood that it is possible to make the at least one connecting element 6 in other metal materials, such as steel, or in high-strength thermoplastic materials such as, for example, PVC.
  • the at least one connecting element 6 comprises a first connecting hook 27, a second connecting hook 28, placed at the opposite ends of the at least one connecting element 6 itself, and a central portion 29 interposed between them (see Figure 6 ).

  • the second connecting hook 28 is configured to couple, by means of a shape coupling, with the first curved element 14 at the top portion 11 of the lath 2. In particular, the second connecting hook 28 engages the curved seat at the portion at the top 11 of the lath 2.
  • the first connecting hook 27 protrudes from a top end of the at least one connecting element 6 while the second connecting hook 28 protrudes from a bottom end of the at least one connecting element 6 (see Figure 6 ).

  • the first connecting hook 27 defines a concavity facing the bottom end of the at least one connecting element 6 while the second connecting hook 28 defines a concavity facing the top end of the at least one connecting element 6.
  • the at least one connecting element 6 has a cross section, that is, a section along a plane orthogonal to the longitudinal direction along which the at least one connecting element 6 itself develops, substantially shaped like a "C".
  • the at least one connecting element 6 differs from the hooks 4 as well as for the extension along the first direction 7 also for the conformation of the central connection portion 29.
  • the first connecting hook 27 and the second connecting hook 28 have a smaller separation distance than that between the first hooking element 24 and the second hooking element 23 of the hooks 4. Consequently, the maximum separation distance at which two laths 2 connected to each other through a connecting element 6 can be arranged is lower than that which can be obtained through the use of hooks 4 for the connection of two blades 2 consecutive to each other.
  • the at least one connecting element 6 extends along a longitudinal direction which in the mounting configuration of the shutter 1 is aligned to the first direction 7.
  • the at least one connecting element 6 is configured to keep the laths 2 closer together, when provided in the winding configuration around the winding roller 3, with respect to the inclined configuration between the laths 2 which are connected by hooks 4 (see for example the configurations assumed between two blades 2 illustrated in the attached Figures 11c and 12c ).
  • the use of at least one connecting element 6 is preferable for the connection between the laths 2 arranged at the top portion of the shutter 1 connected to the winding roller 3 through the first top lath 2'.
  • the number of such laths 2 belonging to the top portion of the sunshade 1 can vary according to specific requirements of use, with reference to the overall weight of the shutter 1 or to its extension along the first direction 7.
  • the at least one connecting element 6 extends along the entire length of the shutter 1 along the first direction 7 and, therefore, provides a stiffening element capable of ensuring a stable connection of the laths 2, 2' in proximity to the winding roller 3 which, in use, are subjected to greater stresses than the laths 2 distal therefrom.
  • the use of the at least one connecting element 6 allows the laths 2 of the top of the shutter 1 to be arranged substantially against the winding roller 3, during the winding phase, thus reducing the size of the shutter 1 in a rolled-up use configuration (see the diagram in Figure 10 ).
  • This conformation allows the use of the shutter 1, if desired, in traditional type boxes, promoting the use of the shutter 1 also as a replacement of a rolling shutter or traditional type shutter, already installed.
  • the at least one connecting element 6 comprises a third connecting hook 30 which protrudes from the first connecting hook 27 similarly to what is described in relation to the third curved element 19 of the hooks 4 (see Figure 6 ), to which reference should be made.
  • the third connecting hook 30 is configured to abut against the third curved element 19 of the lath 2 in the phase of maximum rotation between two contiguous laths 2 (see Figure 11c ). In this way the mechanical connection of the laths 2 which, during the winding step, is subjected to high stresses due to the weight of the underlying part of laths 2 of the shutter 1, is firm and resistant.

  • the at least one gasket 31 has an arched or substantially arched section and is sized to abut against the bottom portion 12 of a lath 2 mounted above, thus attenuating any noises due to the impact between these portions during the stacking between 2 consecutive blades.
  • the at least one gasket 31 is preferably made of extruded plastic material, such as rigid plastic material.
  • the at least one gasket 31 acts as a spacer element, along the first direction 7, between the hooks 4 engaged along the same blade 2.
  • the at least one gasket 31, in fact, is housed along the curved seat present in the top portion 11 of the lath 2, in a position interposed between two hooks 4 engaged in the curved seat itself (see for example Figure 2 ).
  • the at least one gasket 31, therefore, keeps two hooks 4 engaged along the same curved seat at a predefined distance, equal to the length of the at least one gasket 31 itself along the first direction 7.

  • the terminal elements comprise first terminal elements 32 and second terminal elements 33, configured to each other in a specular way, and designed to be connected to a respective end of the lath 2 (see Figures 2 , 3 and 6 ).
  • the first terminal element 32 has a shaped portion comprising a raised profile comprising, in turn, at least one shaped protuberance 34 complementary to the cross section of the channel 21, to be engaged inside it.
  • the raised profile of the first terminal element 32 has in addition to the at least one protuberance 34 also a second protuberance 35 configured to engage, by means of a shape coupling, an end of the second channel 22.
  • the first terminal element 32 then has a third protuberance 36 configured to engage with a shape coupling, if desired sealed, in the curved seat delimited in correspondence with the top portion 11 of the lath 2.
  • the protuberances 34, 35 and 36 sealingly engage the respective cavities present at the end of the lath 2, thus preventing dirt or debris from penetrating inside the cavities present along the lath 2 itself.
  • the presence of foreign bodies or the accumulation of dirt inside the cavities present in the lath 2 could in fact limit the mobility of the hooks 4 or of the at least one connecting element 6 movably engaged in the lath 2 itself, compromising the correct operation of the shutter 1.
  • Each terminal element 32, 33 also has, on a face facing the lath 2, a support plane 37 for abutment against a respective flat end of the lath 2 and at least two profiles 38 raised with respect to said support plane 37 (see Figure 6 ).
  • the profiles 38 are shaped to adhere to the external geometry of the lath 2 in a coupling phase, in such a way as to ensure a shape coupling between the parts, as well as the occlusion of any points of light between each terminal element 32, 33 and the ends of the lath 2.
  • the lath 2 comprises a cylindrical or substantially cylindrical seat 39, advantageously in correspondence with the first partition 10, configured to delimit a housing which can be engaged by means of a screw 40 adapted to connect the first terminal element 32 and the second terminal element 33 to respective ends of the lath 2 (see for example Figures 3 and 6 ).
  • the seat 39 in fact develops for the entire length of the lath 2 along the first direction 7, thus being accessible to both ends of the lath 2 itself.
  • the seat 39 defines a through groove which extends along the entire length of the seat 39 itself along the first direction 7.
  • a seat 39 thus configured allows a limited compliance at the ends of the lath 2 promoting the engagement of the screw 40 in the seat 39 itself and the recovery of any geometric tolerances.
