Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device suitable for providing support in a vertical plane for a banner or similar flexible panel, for advertising or decorative purposes, by carrying out its tensioning so that it always remains at flat, without creases, and simultaneously giving it the possibility of resisting the influence of the wind, all the more sensitive as the panel is stretched and therefore has a relatively rigid flat surface, this panel being permanently brought back in its vertical plane.
- support devices are already known for banners, pavilions or flexible panels of this kind, which consist in having a vertical mast or the like carry at least one horizontal bracket to which the upper edge of the banner is attached. or “beating”, for example by providing along this edge a sewn hem in which the stem is engaged, or else by hanging this edge on the latter by eyelets or similar fasteners.
- the panel is thus suspended under the bracket and, in the absence of wind, extends in a vertical plane, especially if it is planned to ballast its opposite lower edge properly.
- a return halyard can also be attached to this lower edge and also attached to the mast, below the flexible panel, to limit the floating movements of the panel.
- a hem can also be provided in this lower edge as in the upper edge, so as to slide a rod which stiffens the panel and facilitates its maintenance in its plane.
- the present invention relates to a device for supporting a flexible panel of the kind mentioned above, which overcomes these drawbacks, not only by making it possible to keep the panel substantially vertical and suitably stretched between its upper and lower edges, but also to resist the effects of the wind thanks to return means which bring the panel back to its initial position, by opposing the thrust forces which are exerted on it.
- the support device considered, for a banner or similar flexible panel, of generally rectangular shape, arranged and stretched in a vertical plane, this panel being integral with its upper and lower edges in this plane, respectively of two rods substantially horizontal, forming brackets, suitable for immobilizing and stiffening these edges, these rods being carried by a vertical mast or similar element, is characterized in that each horizontal rod is provided, in the vicinity of the vertical mast, with a support element thereon, associated with a temporary immobilization means on the mast, each rod and its support element being joined by a spring capable of opposing a lateral torsional torque exerted on the rod, by permanently bringing back this in the vertical plane of the panel.
- each support element on the mast of a horizontal rod is produced by means of a rigid and continuous metal wire, shaped to constitute a V-shaped stirrup, this stirrup being extended at its open ends by two branches supported on the lateral surface of the mast according to parallel generatrices thereof, one of these branches comprising a connecting element with the return spring joined to the horizontal rod, the bisector plane of the V-shaped stirrup coinciding with the vertical plane of the panel.
- each horizontal rod comprises, opposite its current part joined to the return spring, an end part which forms with this current part a very open angle, suitable for stretching the corresponding edge of the panel.
- the means for temporarily immobilizing the support element are constituted by adjustable straps, each comprising a loop for closing the strap on itself around the vertical mast.
- the closure loop of each strap includes a progressive tensioning mechanism, with step-by-step locking.
- each adjustable strap comprises two separate strands, suitable for being respectively joined to the two branches of the V-shaped stirrup, in the vicinity of the two ends of these branches.
- the return springs of the two horizontal rods respectively integral with the upper and lower edges of the panel are spiral springs, the V-shaped stirrups of the support elements associated with the two rods being arranged symmetrically. one with respect to the other, with respect to a horizontal plane extending substantially in the middle of the height of the panel.
- FIG. 1 is a schematic elevational view of the device considered for supporting a flexible panel by a vertical mast.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 are views on a larger scale, respectively in elevation and from above, of the device considered.
- FIG. 4 is a partial perspective view of one of the rods of the device with its spring and its support bracket, as well as means for immobilizing the latter on the vertical mast.
- the reference 1 schematically designates a banner or pavilion, more generally a flexible panel which can be used for advertising or decorative purposes, this flexible panel can be made of a suitable textile material, or even any other similar material suitably armed to give it mechanical strength suited to the intended use.
- This panel 1 has a generally rectangular shape and is arranged to be supported in a vertical plane by a mast 2 using a device 3 essentially comprising, according to its upper and lower edges, two metal rods 4 and 5 forming brackets , extending substantially horizontally and designed to be secured each to the vertical mast 2 by a support element 6, each rod being joined to the corresponding support element by a spiral spring 7, the structure and the implementation of the device 3 emerging more clearly from FIGS. 2 to 4.
- the support element 6 is in particular in the form of a V-shaped stirrup 8, the ends of the side of its opening are extended by two rods, respectively 9 and 10, which are applied against the external surface of the mast vertical 2, in particular along two parallel generatrices thereof.
- One of these rods, here the rod 9, is folded back at 90 ° to form a connection element 11 with the return spring 7, which is thus slightly offset laterally with respect to the mast 2.
- the return spring 7 thus joins the support element 6 to the rod 5, which comprises a horizontal running part 12, extending by an end part 13, slightly bent and making with this running part a very open angle.
- the rods 4 and 5 are secured to the upper and lower edges of the flexible panel 1 by any suitable means.
- this panel has in these edges, a sewn or otherwise formed hem in which the corresponding rod can slide, the end opposite to the return spring 7 can be advantageously threaded to receive an end ball 14 making it possible to maintain the panel on its rods and to prevent it from sliding on the latter and unexpectedly escaping.
- the rods 4 and 5 of the support device for the panel 1 are moreover fixed to the mast 2 by means of an assembly which advantageously comprises two adjustable straps 15 and 16, as more particularly illustrated in FIG. 4.
- each of these straps is secured to a connecting and reinforcing strip 17, provided with eyelets 18 making it possible to thread these strips on the branches 9 and 10 of the support element 6, in particular for placing each of these straps in the vicinity of the ends of these branches before they surround the mast and are tightened thereon by means of a loop 19, preferably of the kind progressive tightening loop with step-by-step locking of the tension created.
- the two rods 4 and 5 of the support device 3 are thus fixed on the vertical mast 2, and adjusted thereon so that the panel 1 is suitably stretched between these rods in a vertical plane, which is substantially the bisector plane of the V-shaped stirrups 8 of each of the rods on the mast.
- the support elements 6 and the return springs 7 of the two rods are arranged symmetrically on either side of the vertical median plane of the panel, so that the end portions 13 of these rods exert on the ends of the upper and lower edges of the panel 1, due to the angle they form with the running parts 12 of these rods, an increased tension force, keeping the panel perfectly flat in its vertical plane.
