CANOPY FOR OUTDOOR usr;
Filed April 3. 1961 43 42 a4 X76 A A3 6 67. '55 54 29 5 G 25 5 31 j 68 \v' f u INVENTOR. MARC ROSEN United States Patent 3,163,206 CANOPY FUR DUTDGOR USE Marc Rosen, Silt) Atlanta Ave., Massapequa, N .Y. Filed Apr. 3, 1961', Ser. No. 100,434 1 Claim. (Cl. 160236} 3,163,206 Patented Dec. 29, 1964 are radially arrayed underneath the hood to prevent sag- This invention concerns a canopy having multiple slats.
sunshade regardless of their position without compromising free circulation of air. The slats are interconnected by a beaded actuator rod for tilting. A cloth or plastic rajnhood or cover is mountable over the slats and secured at one end to another pipe frame member. Extension and retraction means are provided for the rainhood'including a rope and pulley system carried by the pipe frame members.
It is therefore one object of the invention to provide a canopy including a plurality of slats disposed in a generally canical array.
A further object is to provide a canopy with a plurality of tiltable slats.
For further comprehension of the invention, and of the I objects and advantages thereof, reference will be had to the following description and accompanying drawings, and to the appended claim in which the various novel features of the invention are more particularly set forth.
In the accompanying drawings forming a material part of this disclosure:
FIG. 1 is a sectional view taken through the center of a canopy having slats embodying the invention.
FIG. 2 is a side elevational view of a slat per se.
FIG. 3 is a top plane view of the slat of FIG. 2.
Referring to the drawings there is shown one canopy C embodying the invention. This canopy has asemicircular array of slats 25 suspended from a horizontal semicircular pipe frame 27 near their outer ends. The slats are tiltably supported on a smaller horizontal semicircular pipe frame 26 near their inner ends. The pipe frames 26, 27 are secured by flanges 29, 30 at their ends to a suitable vertical support such as a wall W. A brace bar or bars 32angularly disposed to the horizontal plane of frame 26 supports the frame. The lower end of the brace bar attaches to the wall W. Pipe frame 27 is supported at angularly spaced points by inclined arms 34 carried on axially vertical posts 36, only one post being shown.
Over the slats is disposed a retractable and extensible hood or cover 40. The rear end E of the hood is secured to a small semicircular pipe frame 42. Frame 42 carries spaced arms 43 on which are pulleys 44. On the pulleys is entrained a rope 46. Therope is attached to the forward end E of the hood at spaced points 48. Parts of the rope are entrained on pulleys 50 carried on extensions 35 of arms 34. Suitable cords 54 held taut,
ging of the same and to space the hood from the slats. These cords are attached between the frame 27 and frame 42 and pass through rings 41 under the hood. A rain shield 60 caulked to the wall,'having a generally semicircular form, is attached to wall Wover the center of the canopy. Deflectors 62 caulked to the wall extend outwardly and downwardly from the shield 60. The rain shield 60 and the deflectors 62 provide rain protection over the otherwise unprotected areas between the wall and the hood 40.
The drawing shows a preferred shape of slat 25. The slat is fiat with parallel sides 63 from its outer end 64 to an intermediate point 65 near its other end. The slat tapers or narrows in Width from end 64 to point 65. At point 65 the slat is narrowed to form a generally rectangular short end 66 with substantially parallel sides and edges. A rectangular recess 67 is formed in the lower edge 61 of the slat. The upper edge 68 is straight from end to end of the slat. Rectangular recess 69 is formed in the upper edge to receive parts of a hanger assembly for the slat. A stationary hanger '70 is shown mounted on pipe frame 27. The recess 67 in each slat provides clearance space to permit the lower edge of the slat to pass one side or the other of post 36 when the slat is tilted. While I have illustrated and described the preferred embodiment of my invention, it is to be understood that I do not limit myself to the precise constructions herein disclosed and'that various changes and modifications may be made within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claim.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by United States Letters Pat- 3 eat is:
A slat for a canopy comprising an elongatedmember rectangular in cross section with inner and outer end portions, the outer end portion having flat parallel sides and tapering opposite edges terminating at said inner end portion, said inner end portion being generally rectangular in longitudinal and cross sections, with rectangular recessed portionsformed in the opposite edges of said outer end portion.
