Description

DESCRIPTION

Hiding Device Cloth

[0001] The present invention relates to a concealment device cloth, as well as a concealment device comprising said cloth.

[0002] This invention relates to the field of concealment device manufacturing, especially consisting of a rolling shutter or the like. Said concealment device comprises a cloth made up of a plurality of slats, on the one hand, fixed slats and, on the other hand, slats movable with respect to these fixed slats, in the deployed position of this cloth.

[0003] Concealment devices of this type are already known, and they comprise side rails, as well as a cloth that has lateral ends that slide inside these side rails, during the deployment and folding maneuvers of this cloth. In the unfolded position of this cloth, the lateral ends of this cloth are thus fitted inside these lateral rails and the cloth extends in a general plane of extension.

[0004] This cloth also includes fixed blades, as well as means, especially in the form of a chain or the like, designed to connect the lateral ends of at least two fixed blades of this cloth to each other in order to allow maneuvers of the cloth. These connection means are therefore equipped at the lateral ends of the cloth and, furthermore, they are designed to slide and be placed inside the lateral rails.

[0005] In the same way, this cloth comprises mobile blades, means for the articulated mounting of said mobile blade on said fixed blade, as well as means for controlling the movement of these mobile blades with respect to the fixed blades, between an open position and a closed position of these mobile slats.

[0006] It will be seen that, in the unfolded position of the cloth, the fixed blades extend in the general plane of extension of the cloth, while the mobile blades are articulated between the closed position in which these mobile blades extend in the general plane of extension of the cloth and the open position in which these mobile slats are inclined with respect to this general plane of extension and form an angle with it, to give the cloth a configuration of total concealment, respectively, an openwork configuration.

[0007] As regards the means for the articulated mounting of a mobile slat on a fixed slat, these comprise, on the one hand, a hooking means equipped at an upper longitudinal end of a mobile slat and, on the other hand first, a complementary hooking means, equipped at a lower longitudinal end with a fixed blade located on said mobile blade, and designed to cooperate with the hooking means of said mobile blade.

[0008] This movable slat further comprises a lower longitudinal end, opposite its upper longitudinal end, and designed to be positioned facing an upper longitudinal end comprising another fixed slat located under this movable slat, at least in a closed position of said mobile slat and during cloth unfolding / folding maneuvers.

[0009] According to another characteristic, the concealment device further comprises a drawer, mounted on the side rails, which has an opening through which the cloth extends, which receives a tree on which it is wound inside. and from which the cloth is unrolled, and inside which this cloth is rolled. Also, this device may comprise cloth guide pins at the outlet of said side rail.

[0010] In this sense, it will be seen that, independently of the concealment device that comprises a cloth made up of a plurality of slats, these slats, between the exit of the rails and the shaft, undergo bending due to the displacement between this shaft and the exit of the rails (especially due to the displacement between this shaft and the pins equipped on these rails) and / or due to the weight of the cloth, during the deployment and folding maneuvers of said cloth.

[0011] In the case of a cloth comprising movable slats, the absence of union between the lower longitudinal end of a movable slat and the upper longitudinal end of a fixed slat located immediately below this movable slat, said flexing is considerably accentuated and it leads to a bad winding / unwinding of the cloth followed by a blocking of this cloth inside the drawer and / or the rails, causing a risk of deterioration of the concealment device.

[0012] This phenomenon of bending can be found in all types of concealment devices, although it is especially marked in concealment devices that include large cloths, especially with mobile slats, and are equipped, for example, in large windows.

[0013] Document FR-1,251,335 describes a concealing device cloth which, in its deployed position, extends in a general plane of extension. This cloth comprises lateral ends designed to slide on lateral rails that comprise the concealment device. This cloth it further comprises fixed blades comprising lateral ends designed to slide on the lateral rails of the concealment device and which, in the unfolded position of the cloth, extend in the general plane of extension of this cloth. Furthermore, this cloth comprises mobile slats, each interposed between two fixed slats, and which, in the unfolded position of the cloth, are articulated between a closed position in which said mobile slat extends in the general plane of extension of the cloth and an open position in which said movable slat is inclined with respect to this general plane of extension and forms an angle with it. Furthermore, this cloth comprises, interposed between the lateral ends of this cloth, at least one device for the connection between two fixed blades of the cloth, said connection device comprising means for its connection to these two fixed blades. Finally, this cloth comprises complementary connection means, which comprise the fixed blades, and which are designed to cooperate with the connection means comprising the connection device.

[0014] Document WO95 / 14152 refers to a concealment device cloth comprising movable blades, each consisting of a plurality of movable blade portions. In the same way, this cloth comprises at least one connecting element, conceived to ensure the connection between two parts of the same movable slat, presenting, on both sides, a part intended to fit inside said movable slat portion, and comprising a longitudinal end provided with a hook hook. Likewise, this cloth comprises at least one traction chain link comprising, on the one hand, a first longitudinal end provided with a hooking hook and, on the other hand, a second longitudinal end, opposite to the first longitudinal end, provided with a hooking groove, intended to cooperate with a hooking hook comprising another link of the traction chain hooked below this link. Furthermore, said traction chain link comprises, behind the first longitudinal end, a longitudinal hook-shaped rim. Lastly, this cloth comprises means for mounting a connecting element on a traction chain link, articulated and rotating about an axis.

[0015] The present invention aims to overcome the drawbacks of the state of the art concealment devices and the cloths that comprise said devices.

To this end, the invention relates to a concealment device cloth which, in its deployed position, extends in a general plane of extension and which comprises:

- lateral ends designed to slide on lateral rails comprising the concealment device;

- fixed slats comprising lateral ends designed to slide on the lateral rails of the concealment device and which, in the unfolded position of the cloth, extend in the general plane of extension of this cloth;

- interposed between the lateral ends of this cloth, at least one device for the connection of two fixed blades of the cloth to each other, said connection device comprising means for its connection to these two fixed blades;

- complementary connection means, which comprise the fixed blades, and which are designed to cooperate with the connection means comprising the connection device;

- mobile slats, each interposed between two fixed slats and which, in the unfolded position of the cloth, articulate between a closed position in which said mobile slat extends in the general plane of extension of the cloth and an open position in the that said movable slat is inclined with respect to this general plane of extension and forms an angle with it;

- means for connecting the lateral ends of at least two fixed slats of the cloth to each other.

[0017] This cloth is characterized by the fact that it comprises means for mounting said movable slat on said fixed slat, articulated and in rotation about an axis, these means comprising, on the one hand, mounting means for articulation equipped at a longitudinal end of said mobile slat and, on the other hand, complementary articulation means, equipped at a longitudinal end of said fixed slat, designed to cooperate with the articulating means of the mobile slat, and constituted by the means of complementary connection that includes this fixed slat.

[0018] According to another characteristic, the device for connecting two fixed blades comprises longitudinal ends that receive the connection means, while the fixed blades comprise longitudinal ends that receive the complementary connection means.

[0019] A further feature is that the means for mounting a movable slat in an articulated manner on a fixed slat comprise, on the one hand, articulating means equipped on said movable slat and, on the other hand, complementary articulating means equipped in a fixed blade and constituted by the complementary connection means comprising this fixed blade.

[0020] Another additional feature refers to the fact that the movable blades each have, on the one hand, a first longitudinal end provided with articulation means that constitute at least in part the means for mounting said movable blade in a hinged manner on a fixed blade and, on the other hand, a second longitudinal end, opposite to the first longitudinal end, and provided with a hooking means designed to cooperate with a complementary hooking means comprising a fixed blade, only when said movable blade is in the closed position.

[0021] Furthermore, the mobile slats each comprise a first portion and a second portion that extend along the same axis and in the same plane, while the cloth comprises at least one shutter, interposed between the first and the second portion of said movable blade, and integral with this first and second movable blade portion by means of solidarity.

[0022] Finally, the shutter is hingedly mounted and rotated about an axis with respect to the connection device, by means of means for mounting, in a hinged manner and in rotation about an axis, a slat mobile on a fixed slat.

[0023] The cloth according to the present invention comprises a device for the connection between two fixed slats that comprise this cloth. This connection device is interposed between the lateral ends of this cloth and comprises means for its connection to these two fixed slats.

[0024] Advantageously, the presence of this connection device and its connection means makes it possible to ensure a permanent connection of these two fixed slats to each other and, by extension, of all the fixed slats of the cloth, two by two.

[0025] Said permanent connection advantageously makes it possible to avoid any risk of disengagement or decoupling of the fixed slats of the cloth, especially between the rails and the shaft. Therefore, the permanence of this connection advantageously makes it possible to guarantee the integrity of the cloth.

[0026] Furthermore, this connection device advantageously allows to fix the width between the fixed slats.

[0027] The presence of said connection device allows, in the same way and advantageously, to increase the rigidity of the cloth, both in the longitudinal direction of the cloth slats and in a direction perpendicular to the general plane of extension of this cloth.

[0028] Likewise, the presence of said connection device, together with the stiffness of the slats, advantageously makes it possible to increase the resistance of the cloth, especially against an attempted robbery perpetrated on this cloth, and / or to prevent the formation of a through hole in the middle of the cloth.

[0029] Finally, the presence of this connection device advantageously allows to provide a wheel or a roller, especially equipped in the drawer of the concealment device (more specifically, the underside of this drawer), and designed to prevent a collapse of the cloth in the drawer (more specifically, on the underside of this drawer). In fact, said roller (or said wheel) can be located facing said connection device and, thus, be designed to roll under this connection device and so that this connection device rests on this roller during the unfolding / folding of the cloth , which has the effect of preventing the cloth from sinking.

[0030] Likewise, the cloth comprises means for mounting, in an articulated manner and on a fixed slat, a mobile slat. Advantageously, said feature allows the orientation function of said mobile slat to be preserved to allow, depending on the case, a closure configuration (total concealment) or an opening configuration (openwork) to be conferred on a cloth.

[0031] Additionally, the movable blade comprises a second longitudinal end provided with a hooking means designed to cooperate with a complementary hooking means comprising a fixed blade, only when said mobile blade is in the closed position. This feature advantageously allows to improve the insulation (especially thermal) of the cloth (in the unfolded position). Likewise, this feature allows a hitch to be carried out between a movable slat and a fixed slat located under this fixed slat, during the cloth folding / unfolding maneuvers, more specifically when these slats are located between the side rails and the shaft. winding / unwinding, thus preventing bending of the cloth.

[0032] Other purposes and advantages of the present invention will appear throughout the description that follows, which are related to the embodiments, which are provided only by way of indicative and non-limiting examples.

[0034] The present invention relates to the field of the manufacture of concealment devices, especially constituted by a rolling shutter or the like, and designed to be equipped in a building.

[0035] Said concealment device 1 comprises a cloth 2, as well as side rails (3; 3 ’) inside which the lateral ends (20; 20’) of this cloth 2 are placed and slide.

[0036] This concealment device 1 further comprises a drawer 4, mounted on the side rails (3; 3 '), and which receives inside a tree (not shown), connected to the cloth 2, and on which it is rolled up and from which this cloth 2 is unwound. More specifically, inside this drawer 4 and on this tree, at least in part, the cloth 2 is rolled up in the folded position of this 2.

[0037] Furthermore, the concealment device 1 comprises means (not shown) for the rotational control of the winding / unwinding shaft of the cloth 2, said control means being especially of a motorized type.

[0038] With particular regard to cloth 2, it is capable of adopting a folded position (at least in part inside drawer 4), as well as an unfolded position (figure 1) in which this cloth 2 extends in a general plane of extension.

[0039] Furthermore, as can be seen in figure 1, this cloth 2 comprises a plurality of slats (5; 6).

[0040] Specifically, this cloth 2 comprises fixed slats 5 which, in the unfolded position of cloth 2, extend in the general plane of extension of this cloth 2.

[0041] These fixed slats 5 comprise lateral ends designed to be placed and slide on the lateral rails (3; 3 ’) of the concealment device 1.

[0042] These fixed blades 5 are connected to each other through means (not shown) designed to connect the lateral ends of at least two fixed blades 5 to each other, including the lateral ends of the set of fixed blades 5 of the cloth 2, to allow the maneuvers of this cloth 2.

[0043] In fact, more specifically, this cloth 2 comprises said connection means which are therefore equipped at the lateral ends (20; 20 ') of this cloth 2 and which are designed to slide and be placed in the inside of the side rails (3; 3 '). According to a specific embodiment, these connection means can take the form of a chain or the like.

[0044] This cloth 2 also comprises mobile slats 6, each one interposed 6 between two fixed slats 5 and which, in the unfolded position of the cloth 2, are articulated between a closed position in which these mobile slats 6 extend in the general plane of extension of the cloth 2 (figures 1, 5 and 6) and an open position in which these mobile slats 6 are inclined with respect to this general plane of extension and form an angle with it (figures 3 and 4) .

[0045] In order to carry out said articulation, the cloth 2 comprises means 7 designed to mount said mobile slat 6 on said fixed slat 5, articulated and in rotation about an axis.

[0046] Finally, the concealment device 1 comprises means (not shown) for controlling the inclination of the mobile slats. Said control means may be constituted by a strap or the like, in contact with each of the movable slats 6, and associated (especially through a sliding assembly) with the means for connecting the lateral ends of the fixed slats together. 5.

[0047] According to the invention, the cloth 2 of the concealment device 1 comprises at least one device 8 for the connection between two fixed blades 5 of this cloth 2.

[0048] Said connection device 8 is interposed between the lateral ends (20; 20 ’) of this cloth 2, more specifically, between the lateral ends of the fixed slats 5 that this cloth 2 comprises.

[0049] This connection device 8 comprises means (80; 80 ') for its connection to these two fixed blades 5, while these fixed blades 5 therefore comprise complementary connection means (50; 50') designed to cooperate with the connection means (80; 80 ') comprising the connection device 8.

To this end, it should be noted that the connection device 8 comprises longitudinal ends (81; 81 ') where, on the one hand, a first longitudinal end 81, oriented in the direction of the fixed blade 5 located above of this connection device 8, equipped in the upper part of this connection device 8, and called upper longitudinal end 81 and, on the other hand, a second longitudinal end 81 ', opposite the first longitudinal end 81, oriented in the direction of the fixed blade 5 located under the connection device 8, equipped at the bottom of this connection device 8, and called the lower longitudinal end 81 '.

[0051] As regards the fixed blades 5, these also comprise longitudinal ends (51; 51 ') where, on the one hand, a first longitudinal end 51, oriented in the direction of the connection device 8 located below it fixed blade 5, equipped at the bottom of this fixed blade 5, and called the lower longitudinal end 51 and, on the other hand, a second longitudinal end 51 ', opposite the first longitudinal end 51, oriented in the direction of the connecting device 8 located above this fixed blade 5, equipped on top of said fixed blade 5, and called the upper longitudinal end 51 '.

[0052] Furthermore, and according to another characteristic of the invention, it is especially the longitudinal ends (81; 81 ') of the connection device 8 that receive the connection means (80; 80'), while the longitudinal ends (51 ; 51 ') of the fixed blades 5 receive the complementary connection means (50; 50').

[0053] According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the connection device 8 takes the form of a link 82 intended to extend in the general plane of extension of the cloth 2 which is at least parallel (even, and preferably, confused) to the general plane of extension of link 82 itself, in the unfolded position of cloth 2. This link 8 adopts, like the fixed blades 5 of cloth 2, a general flexed shape and comprises an outer wall (intended to be oriented in a opposite direction of the winding / unwinding shaft when the cloth 2 is wound on this shaft) which takes a convex shape.

[0054] This connection device 8 comprises a first longitudinal end 81 (more specifically, an upper longitudinal end) that receives a first connection means 80 in a first fixed blade 5 (especially located on this connection device 8), more specifically at a first longitudinal end 51 (more specifically, a lower longitudinal end) comprising said fixed blade 5 and receiving a first complementary connection means 50 designed to cooperate with the first connection means 80 of the connection device 8.

[0055] This connection device 8 also comprises a second longitudinal end 81 '(more specifically, a lower longitudinal end) that receives a second connection means 80' in a second fixed blade 5 (especially located below this device connection 8), more specifically at a second longitudinal end 51 '(more specifically, an upper longitudinal end) comprising said fixed blade 5 and receiving a second complementary connection means 50' designed to cooperate with the second means of connection 80 'of the connection device 8.

[0056] A further feature is that the first connection means 80 comprising the connection device 8 is similar or (preferably) identical to the second complementary connection means 50 'comprising a fixed blade 5 and / or the second connection means connection 80 'comprising the connection device 8 is similar or (preferably) identical to the first complementary connection means 50 comprising a fixed blade 5.

[0057] In fact, the connection means (80; 80 ') comprising the connection device 8 are constituted by hooking means, while the complementary connection means (50; 50') comprising the fixed blades 5 they are made up of complementary hooking means.

[0058] In this sense, it can be seen that the hooking means that constitutes the first connection means 80 comprising the connection device 8 and / or the complementary hooking means that constitutes the second complementary connection means 50 'comprising A fixed blade 5 is made up of a hook hook.

[0059] On the other hand, the hooking means constituting the second connection means 80 'comprising the connection device 8 and / or the complementary hooking means constituting the first complementary connection means 50 comprising a fixed blade 5 They consist of a hook hook.

[0060] As regards the movable slats 6, they also comprise longitudinal ends (60; 60 ') where, on the one hand, a first longitudinal end 60, oriented in the direction of the fixed slat 5 located above , equipped on the upper part of this movable slat 6, and called the upper longitudinal end and, on the other hand, a second longitudinal end 60 ', opposite the free longitudinal first end 60, oriented in the direction of the fixed slat 5 located below, equipped at the bottom of this mobile slat 6, and called the lower longitudinal end.

[0061] As mentioned above, the cloth 2 comprises means 7 for mounting a mobile slat 6 on a fixed slat 5, articulated and rotating about an axis.

In fact, these means 7 for mounting said movable slat 6 in an articulated manner on said fixed slat 5 comprise, on the one hand, articulating means 70 equipped on said movable slat 6, especially a longitudinal end (more specifically, the first longitudinal end 60) comprising said mobile slat 6 and, on the other hand, complementary articulation means 70 'equipped on a fixed slat 5, especially a longitudinal end (more specifically, a first longitudinal end 51) comprising said fixed blade 5, and designed to cooperate with the articulation means 70 of the mobile blade 6.

[0063] According to the invention, these complementary articulation means 70 'are constituted by the complementary connection means (more specifically, by the first complementary connection means 50) comprising this fixed blade 5 (more specifically, the first end longitudinal 51 of this fixed blade 5).

[0064] Therefore, the movable slats 6 of the cloth 2 each have, on the one hand, a first longitudinal end 60 provided with articulation means 70 that constitute, at least in part, the means 7 for mounting said movable slat 6 articulated on a fixed slat 5.

[0065] According to another characteristic of the invention, these movable slats 6 have, on the other hand, a second longitudinal end 60 ', opposite the free longitudinal first end 60, and provided with a hooking means 61 (more specifically, in the form of a hooking finger or the like) designed to cooperate with a complementary hooking means comprising a fixed blade 5 (more specifically, located under the mobile blade 6), only when said mobile blade 6 is in the closed position.

[0066] In this sense, it will be seen that the complementary hooking means (with which the hooking means 61 of the mobile blade 6 cooperates) is constituted by the complementary connection means 50 'comprising the fixed blade 5, plus in particular, constituted by the second complementary connection means 50 'comprising the fixed blade 5 (more specifically, comprising the second longitudinal end 51' of this fixed blade 5).

[0067] As mentioned above, this cooperation occurs only when said movable blade 6 is in the closed position.

[0068] To this end, it can be seen that said cooperation occurs, therefore, more specifically, when said mobile slat 6 extends in the general plane of extension of cloth 2, as in the case when this cloth 2 is in deployed position. Said embodiment advantageously allows the insulation (especially thermal) of the cloth 2 to be improved in the unfolded position.

[0069] Furthermore, this cooperation occurs, in the same way, when said mobile slat 6 is in the closed position and when the cloth 2 is in the process of unfolding and / or folding. This advantageously makes it possible to engage between a movable slat 6 and a fixed slat 5 located underneath this fixed slat 6, during the cloth folding / unfolding maneuvers 2, more specifically, when these slats (5; 6 ) are located between the side rails (3; 3 ') and the winding / unwinding shaft, thus preventing bending of the cloth 2.

[0070] According to another characteristic of the invention, the mobile blades 6 of the cloth 2 further comprise a first portion 62 and a second portion 62 'that extend along the same axis (corresponding to the axis of extension of said mobile blade 6) and on the same plane.

[0071] In a similar case, the cloth 2 further comprises at least one shutter 9, interposed between the first 62 and the second 62 'portion of said mobile slat 6 and integral with this first 62 and second 62' portion of the slat mobile 6 through a means of solidarity comprising the cloth 2.

[0072] In this sense, it can be seen that these securing means comprise, on the one hand, a fitting means comprising, on both sides, the shutter 9 (more specifically, the lateral ends of this shutter 9) and, on the other hand, complementary fitting means, comprising the first 62 and the second 62 'portion of the movable slat 6, which may be constituted by an internal cavity defined within the profile that constitutes said portion (62; 62' ) of mobile slat 6, and that cooperate with the fitting means comprising the shutter 9.

[0073] According to another characteristic, said shutter 9 comprises longitudinal ends (91; 91 ') where, on the one hand, a first longitudinal end 91, oriented in the direction of the fixed blade 5 located above, and equipped at the top of this shutter 9 and, on the other hand, a second longitudinal end 91 ', opposite the first longitudinal end 91, of free type, oriented in the direction of the fixed blade 5 located below, and equipped at the bottom of this shutter 9 .

[0074] Another additional feature of this shutter 9 is that it can comprise means for connecting it to a first fixed slat 5 located above this shutter 9.

[0075] In this sense, it will be seen that, more specifically, the first longitudinal end 91 of this shutter 9 can, therefore, comprise said connection means and these can, consequently, be similar or identical to the means of joint 70 comprising a mobile slat 6 where the portions (62; 62 ') are integral with this shutter 9.

[0076] In addition or alternatively to these connection means, this shutter 9 may comprise a hooking means 92 designed to cooperate with a complementary hooking means comprising a second fixed blade 5 located below, only when the mobile blade 6 is integral of this shutter 9 is in the closed position.

[0077] In this sense, it can be seen that, more specifically, the second longitudinal end 91 'of this shutter 9 therefore comprises said hooking means 92 and this may be similar or identical to the hooking means 61 that it comprises a mobile slat 6 where the portions (62; 62 ') are integral with this shutter 9.

[0078] Furthermore, this hooking means 92 cooperates with a complementary hooking means constituted by a (second) complementary connecting means 50 'and comprising the second fixed blade 5.

[0079] An additional feature is that the connection device 8 and, respectively, the shutter 9, comprises a compartment for receiving at least a part of the shutter 9 and, respectively, the connection device 8, in the closed position of the mobile slat 6.

[0080] To this end, it can be seen that the shutter 9 comprises a longitudinal element (more specifically, in the form of a longitudinal plank or longitudinal plate), as well as two lateral bases, connected to each other by means of said longitudinal element, each provided one, of a fitting means and delimiting with said longitudinal element a compartment for receiving the connection device 8, in the closed position of the mobile slat.

[0081] Said compartment preferably has a complementary shape to the connection device 8, which advantageously makes it possible to reinforce the rigidity of the cloth 2, more specifically, when the mobile slat 6 is in the closed position.

[0082] Another additional feature consists in that the connection device 8 and the shutter 9 have a complementary shape and / or are defined such that the section of the assembly consisting of this connection device 8 and this shutter 9 corresponds considerably to the section of a mobile slat 6, in the closed position of said mobile slat 6.

[0083] This also makes it possible to reinforce the rigidity of the cloth 2, more specifically, when the movable blade 6 is in the closed position.

[0084] The shutter (more especially, its second longitudinal end 91 ') further comprises a cut 93 for the reception of the connection means 80' comprising the connection device 8 (more especially for the reception of the second means of connection 80 'comprising the second longitudinal end 81' of this connection device 8).

[0085] As can be seen in Figures 3 to 6, the connection device 8 and / or the shutter 9 adopt a general flexed shape similar, or even identical, to that of the fixed 5 and mobile slats 6 of the cloth 2.

[0086] Furthermore, when the shutter 9 is folded into the connection device 8 (closed position of the mobile slat 6), the set consisting of this connection device 8 and this shutter 9 has a profile that is similar, or even identical, to the profile of the fixed blades 5 and / or mobile 6, more specifically, to the profile of the portions (62; 62 ') of said mobile blade 6 that extends on both sides of said assembly.

[0087] Likewise, it will be observed that the connection device 8 comprises an inner wall, intended to be oriented in the direction of the winding / unwinding shaft when the cloth 2 is wound on this shaft, and which adopts a similar concave shape, or even identical, to that of an inner wall, intended to be oriented in the direction of the winding / unwinding shaft when the cloth 2 is wound on this shaft, and which comprises the fixed blades 5 and mobile 6. The shutter 9 comprises a outer wall, intended to be oriented in a direction opposite to that of the winding / unwinding shaft when the cloth 2 is wound on this shaft, and which takes a convex shape similar, or even identical, to that of an outer wall, intended to be oriented in a direction opposite to that of the winding / unwinding shaft when the cloth 2 is wound on this shaft, and which comprises fixed blades 5 and movable is 6.

[0088] These characteristics (flexed shape and / or profile and / or concave inner wall and / or convex outer wall) advantageously allow a perfect winding of the cloth 2 on the winding shaft.

[0089] A further feature is that the shutter 9 is hingedly mounted and rotated about an axis with respect to the connecting device 8.

[0090] According to a first embodiment, the cloth 2 can comprise means for mounting the shutter 9 in a hinged manner directly on the connection device 8.

[0091] Said mounting means may comprise, on the one hand, at least one articulating means equipped at a longitudinal end (more specifically, the first longitudinal end 81) of the connection device 8 and, on the other hand, at least one complementary articulation means, equipped at a longitudinal end (more specifically, a first longitudinal end 91) of the shutter 9, and cooperating with an articulation means comprising the connecting device 8.

However, and according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the shutter 9 is mounted in an articulated and rotational manner about an axis with respect to the connection device 8, indirectly, that is, without there is a physical element that ensures an assembly of the shutter 9 directly in rotation in the connection device 8. This connection device 8 and this shutter 9 are therefore made up of two independent parts that facilitate their manufacture, their incorporation into the cloth inside 2, cloth making 2, the intervention on this cloth 2 (especially in operation after the sale) and improving the reliability of this cloth 2.

[0093] In fact, and as can be seen in the attached figures, said assembly (articulated and rotating about an axis of the shutter 9 with respect to the connection device 8) is secured by means 7 for mounting, articulated and in rotation about an axis, a mobile slat 6 on a fixed slat 5.

[0094] In a similar case, the axis around which the shutter 9 is mounted in rotation with respect to the connection device 8 is confused with the axis of rotation of a movable blade 6 with respect to a fixed blade 5 and and authorized by the means 7 designed to mount said mobile slat 6 on said fixed slat 5, in an articulated manner.

[0095] Therefore, the invention also relates to a concealment device 1 comprising a cloth 2 having the characteristics described above.

[0096] As previously mentioned, this concealment device 1 also includes a drawer 4 provided with an opening, through which the cloth 2 slides, as well as a lower face, which especially delimits said opening .

[0097] This drawer 4 (more specifically, its lower face) comprises a means to prevent the cloth 2 from sinking onto this drawer 4 (more specifically, on the lower face of this drawer).

[0098] This means to prevent the cloth from sinking is oriented towards at least one connection device 8, which, therefore, rests on this means and slides over said means, during a deployment / folding maneuver of cloth 2.

[0099] According to a specific embodiment, said means for preventing sinking is constituted by a wheel or a roller designed to roll under the cloth 2, more specifically, under a connection device 8, during the deployment maneuvers / folding this cloth 2.
