Description

Lifting roof for pleasure boats.

Object of the invention

This utility model refers to a lifting roof for pleasure boats.

Background to the invention

On boats of a certain size, about all from 9 meters in length, it is normal that in the part of the ceiling is enabled a seating area and at the same time from where Pilot the boat.

In this space the position of government, various seats, one or several tables for different uses and sunbeds, always depending on space available.

All this entails the need to cover it and uncover it daily with tarps and covers individually to protect the elements from rain, dust and feces from seagulls, among other factors. This is therefore a problem since which is a cumbersome operation and does not cover all of the area but only the elements. These inconveniences are solved with the lifting roof of the invention covering the entire area of be and pilot the boat providing shade and eventually protects from rain and folding the roof achieves Enjoy the sun when you want.

Description of the invention

The object of the invention is simple in that constructive and very easy to manipulate.

The roof of the invention is of the sliding type and also in accordion that slides from front to back or if desired that the sun enters the back and no shadows are cast on This area can be opened from back to front, so we have This area practically in the sun.

The elements to cover this equipment can be varied, the structure that forms in the area can be polyester reinforced with fiberglass, steel, aluminum or even wood.

Roof lift systems can be by means of gas compensating springs, pneumatic cylinders, hydraulic or combined, as well as rack systems or by pulleys or scissor systems, driven by any mechanical marking device.

When the roof is raised you may suffer swings of the wind, which will depend on the speed of the boat, to minimize these movements some will be installed diagonal tensioners, which can form a scissor in all four sides of the roof, so that they will act as tense winds, avoiding the swing.

These tensioners can be made of steel cable or simply nylon.

According to the invention the roof consists of a vertically movable structure by a mechanism of the pneumatic, hydraulic, electric or mechanical type. The object of roof is to protect the dust jacket when the structure is in its closed position and when the structure is raised it get enough height for the passage of people in the dust jacket.

The roof is defined by a folding awning through a system of sliding guides and articulated bars for to be able to open the roof in the sun or close it in order to shade the dust jacket, at the user's choice.

Description of a practical example of realization of the invention

On a pleasure boat 1, known in itself and which is not an object of the invention, a lifting roof 2 is provided arranged on vessel 1 in the area where the same.

The boat in that area has mounted a structure 3 in which the lifting roof 2 is coupled which is driven for example by pneumatic cylinders 4 or by scissors 5 driven by pneumatic cylinders 6.

The roof has a laterally arranged awning 7 in two parallel profiles 8 with double guide 9 and 10 for which bearings 11 and 12 are mounted on supports 13 integral to articulated bars 14 on which the awning 7 is mounted.

All this is represented in figures 4, 5, 6 and 7 and in the detail of figure 8.

Figure 8 shows how the awning is It is positioned and guided by the double bearing 11 and 12 mounted on each of guides 9 and 10 of each profile 8 of the two parallels through which the awning runs in its two positions, folding and folding.

Describe sufficiently the nature of the invention, as well as how to perform it in practice, should be noted that the provisions indicated above and represented in the attached drawings are susceptible to modifications of detail as long as they do not alter the principle fundamental.
