Description
"Tenda para piscinas e áreas externas" "Tent for pools and outdoor areas"
Campo do Modelo de Utilidade Utility Model Field
[1] O presente modelo de utilidade (MU) refere-se a uma tenda para piscinas e áreas externas destinada à proteção contra a radiação solar durante atividades externas. Este dispositivo consiste em uma cobertura cujas hastes de sustentação podem ser firmemente fixadas nas paredes de piscinas ou mesmo em um terreno plano horizontal. [1] This utility model (MU) refers to a tent for swimming pools and outdoor areas intended for protection against solar radiation during outdoor activities. This device consists of a cover whose support rods can be firmly fixed to the walls of swimming pools or even on a flat horizontal ground.
Descrição do estado da técnica Description of prior art
[1] A mudança generalizada da população moderna de um ambiente rural para um ambiente urbano tem levado a uma certa padronização dos hábitos sociais, em particular, daqueles destinados ao lazer em grupo. Tem se tornado muito comum para o indivíduo que vive nas grandes cidades dedicar boa parte de seu tempo livre a períodos de recreação familiar em áreas abertas e, com frequência, na presença de piscinas. Para poder desfrutar de tais momentos sem inconvenientes, uma proteção efetiva contra a radiação solar é altamente recomendável, principalmente em horários e regiões de maior incidência solar. Uma das formas mais simples de proteção contra os raios solares é bloquear fisicamente sua passagem, impedindo que atinjam a pele das pessoas. As coberturas, guarda-sóis, toldos, tendas, etc, tem cumprido essa função ao longo do tempo. Entretanto, as coberturas móveis não são, em geral, projetadas para serem utilizadas dentro das piscinas, e quando o são, não possuem uma forma eficiente de fixação e estabilização. The general change of the modern population from a rural environment to an urban environment has led to a certain standardization of social habits, in particular, those destined for group leisure. It has become very common for the individual living in large cities to devote much of their free time to periods of family recreation in open areas and often in the presence of swimming pools. In order to enjoy such moments without inconvenience, effective protection against solar radiation is highly recommended, especially at times and regions with higher solar incidence. One of the simplest ways to protect against the sun's rays is to physically block its passage, preventing it from reaching people's skin. The roofs, umbrellas, awnings, tents, etc., have fulfilled this function over time. However, the movable covers are not generally designed to be used inside the swimming pools, and when they are, they do not have an efficient form of fixation and stabilization.
[2] O presente modelo de utilidade se propõe a ser uma solução prática e simples para tal demanda. Alguns dispositivos guardam certa semelhança com o atual modelo, como por exemplo aquele revelado na patente US6708706. Este documento protege um modelo de utilidade que consiste em uma grande estrutura móvel em formato de mesa que sustenta uma cobertura retrátil de tecido. Esta estrutura pode movimentar- se por meio de rodas e também pode ser fixada no lugar desejado, sobre a piscina, através de ventosas que aderem ao piso que a rodeia. Embora este dispositivo cumpra a função de produzir uma sombra protetora sobre a piscina, trata -se de uma estrutura
grande, pesada e de difícil instalação, quando comparada ao modelo aqui analisado. Além disso, o modo de fixação também difere deste. Enquanto a estrutura descrita na patente pode ser estabilizada por ventosas localizadas em cada uma de suas quatro pernas, as quais devem aderir à superfície horizontal, localizada ao lado da piscina, o modelo de utilidade (MU) é fixado nas paredes verticais internas da piscina. [2] This utility model is intended to be a practical and simple solution to such a demand. Some devices bear some resemblance to the current model, such as that disclosed in US6708706. This document protects a utility model consisting of a large table-top mobile structure that supports a retractable fabric cover. This structure can be moved by means of wheels and can also be fixed in the desired place, on the swimming pool, by suction cups that adhere to the floor that surrounds it. Although this device fulfills the function of producing a protective shade on the pool, it is a structure large, heavy and difficult to install, when compared to the model analyzed here. In addition, the mode of attachment also differs from this. While the structure described in the patent may be stabilized by suction cups located on each of its four legs, which adhere to the horizontal surface, located next to the pool, the utility model (MU) is secured to the vertical walls of the pool.
[3] A patente US7229059B1 refere-se a um dispositivo de múltiplo uso cuja principal característica é poderfixar-se por meio de fortes ventosas em qualquer superfície plana e lisa, seja horizontal ou vertical. O que permite essa flexibilidade de aplicação é o fato de consistir em uma parte fixa e uma parte móvel, intercambiável. A parte fixa consistindo em, pelo menos, uma haste com uma ventosa em uma de suas extremidades, sendo que à outra, podem ser encaixadas diversas hastes verticais, podendo elas carregar redes de vôlei, cestas de basquete, banners e, inclusive, guarda - sóis. Embora semelhante, principalmente no que tange à fixação com ventosas, este dispositivo não apresenta o conceito específico de uma estrutura que, com q uatro ou duas hastes como base, cobrem uma certa área fornecendo sombra, tal como o modelo de utilidade propõe. Assim, fica claro que a grande diferença é que a patente US7229059B1 tem uma aplicação apenas genérica, não fazendo nenhuma referência à respeito do conceito da estrutura apresentada neste MU. [3] Patent US7229059B1 relates to a multiple use device whose main feature is to be able to be secured by means of strong suction cups on any flat and smooth surface, whether horizontal or vertical. What allows this flexibility of application is that it consists of a fixed part and a movable, interchangeable part. The fixed part consisting of at least one rod with a suction cup at one of its ends, and at the other, several vertical rods can be engaged, which may carry volleyball nets, basketball baskets, banners and, suns Although similar, especially with regard to attachment with suction cups, this device does not present the specific concept of a structure which, with four or two stems as a base, covers a certain area providing shade, as the utility model proposes. Thus, it is clear that the major difference is that the patent US7229059B1 has a generic application only, making no reference to the concept of the structure presented in this MU.
[4] Ainda na mesma linha do artefato anterior, encontra-se o documento US7503540B2. A tecnologia exibida nesse documento consiste em conjunto de ventosa, conexão e suporte para hastes. A ventosa de alta sucção pode ser colocada praticamente em qualquer superfície, desde que seja lisa e plana, podendo esta ser seca ou molhada. A ela podem ser acopladas hastes com os mais diversos propósitos, tais como suporte para redes de vôlei, guarda-sóis, etc. Da mesma forma que o dispositivo US7229059B1, o foco do modelo de utilidade está apenas sobre o elemento de fixação, ou seja, a ventosa . [4] Also in the same line as the previous artifact is document US7503540B2. The technology shown in this document consists of a suction cup assembly, connection, and stem support. The suction suction cup can be placed almost on any surface, provided it is smooth and flat, and can be dry or wet. It can be coupled with rods for the most diverse purposes, such as support for volleyball nets, umbrellas, etc. Like the device US7229059B1, the focus of the utility model is only on the securing member, i.e., the suction cup.
[5] Outros dispositivos apresentam um conceito diferente para oferecer proteção em piscinas. O artefato descrito em US20100186793A1 consiste em uma estrutura articulada em formato semiesférico coberta por uma tela. Uma das características distintivas do modelo de utilidade, e a principal diferença com relação ao atual MU, é a
sua mobilidade, uma vez que não compreende qualquer elemento de fixação a qualquer substrato, tal como parede ou piso. A estrutura é projetada para flutuar com o lado convexo para cima, conferindo proteção e sombra aos indivíduos sob seu perímetro. [5] Other devices have a different concept to provide pool protection. The artifact described in US20100186793A1 consists of a semi-spherical hinged structure covered by a screen. One of the distinguishing characteristics of the utility model, and the main difference with respect to the current MU, is the its mobility, since it does not comprise any fastening element to any substrate, such as wall or floor. The structure is designed to float with the convex side up, giving protection and shade to the individuals under its perimeter.
[6] Finalmente, o documento US20050011134A1 revela um dispositivo que consiste em um guarda-sol que, por meio de hastes telescópicas, pode ser firmemente fincado no solo. Uma das extremidades das hastes está conectada à parte superior da estrutura do guarda-sol, enquanto as outras extremidades são fixadas no solo. A estrutura final possui aspecto de um domo em que a parte superior é o próprio guarda -sol original. Embora o aspecto exterior seja similar ao M U aqui apresentado, sua estrutura e montagem são mais complexos e a área coberta é consideravelmente menor. [6] Finally, US20050011134A1 discloses a device consisting of an umbrella which, by means of telescopic rods, can be firmly fixed to the ground. One end of the rods is connected to the upper part of the umbrella structure, while the other ends are fixed to the ground. The final structure has the appearance of a dome in which the upper part is the original sunshade guard. Although the exterior appearance is similar to the M U presented here, its structure and assembly are more complex and the area covered is considerably smaller.
[7] Dessa forma, o presente modelo de utilidade representa uma melhoria inovadora para as atuais estruturas destinadas à proteção contra o sol e outras intempéries, comuns em áreas abertas. [7] In this way, this utility model represents an innovative improvement for the current structures designed to protect against the sun and other weather, common in open areas.
Objetivos do Modelo de Utilidade Objectives of the Utility Model
[8] O presente modelo de utilidade visa oferecer uma melhoria para os atuais equipamentos de proteção solar para áreas de lazer expostas ao ambiente. [8] This utility model aims to offer an improvement to the current solar protection equipment for recreational areas exposed to the environment.
[9] A inovação reside, principalmente, na maior praticidade para o transporte e montagem da estrutura devido à simplicidade de instalação, leveza e pequeno número de componentes. [9] The innovation lies mainly in the greater practicality of transport and assembly of the structure due to the simplicity of installation, lightness and small number of components.
[10] Um segundo propósito deste modelo de utilidade é proporcionar maior versatilidade ao equipamento. O conceito de estrutura modular formada por uma série de varetas rosqueadas permite que sejam montadas tendas de diferentes tamanhos, adequando-as à extensão da área que se deseja cobrir. Além disso, é possível utilizá-la em diferentes situações, sobre grama, terra ou mesmo sobre piscinas através de ventosas. Assim, a inovação pretende, com um mesmo produto, permitir seu uso de acordo com a necessidade da circunstância, descartando a exigência de diversos dispositivos para cada aplicação diferente.
[11] Finalmente, o presente modelo de utilidade visa também diminuir custos de produção, decorrente da simplicidade do aparato, o que é refletido no pequeno número de partes e no baixo peso final. [10] A second purpose of this utility model is to provide greater versatility to the equipment. The concept of modular structure formed by a series of threaded rods allows tents of different sizes to be fitted, adapting them to the extension of the area to be covered. In addition, it is possible to use it in different situations, on grass, earth or even on swimming pools through suction cups. Thus, innovation intends, with the same product, to allow its use according to the necessity of the circumstance, ruling out the requirement of several devices for each different application. [11] Finally, this utility model also aims to reduce production costs, due to the simplicity of the apparatus, which is reflected in the small number of parts and the low final weight.

Descrição detalhada do Modelo de Utilidade Detailed Description of the Utility Model
[15] O presente modelo de utilidade consiste em uma cobertura para piscinas, mas que pode também ser instalada em área abertas como jardins, campo, areia, praia, etc. A cobertura consiste em uma tenda em forma de cúpula, cuja estrutura compreende um conjunto de quatro hastes 3 longas, as quais são formadas por um conjunto de pequenas varetas tubulares 9 rosqueadas uma atrás da outra. O número de varetas 9 é variável em função do tamanho da estrutura que se pretende levantar. As quatro hastes 3 são curvadas na forma de arco e mantidas unidas em uma de suas extremidades por um conector, formando o topo da cobertura 1, o qual é recoberto por um tecido 2 que bloqueia a passagem da luz solar. A base da estrutura é formada pelas extremidades inferiores 7 das hastes que podem possuir acessórios para fixação, como espetos plásticos com o gancho 4 para o elástico. Cada uma destas quatro extremidades é acoplada a uma ventosa de fixação 10, existindo, portanto, pelo menos uma ventosa para cada haste. Projetadas para atuar tanto em uma superfície seca, molhada ou mesmo submersa, elas se destinam a fixar firmemente toda a estrutura nas paredes da piscina, de preferência verticais. O tecido 2 que cobre a parte superior da estrutura é mantido sob tensão por meio de pelo menos quatro elásticos 5, cujas extremidades conectam, sob tração, o tecido 2 a cada extremidade inferior 7 das hastes, por meio de anéis, dos ganchos 4 dos espetos a elas acoplados ou a cada ventosa 10. [15] This utility model consists of a pool cover, but can also be installed in open areas such as gardens, fields, sand, beach, etc. The cover consists of a dome-shaped tent, the structure of which comprises a set of four long rods 3, which are formed by a set of small tubular rods 9 threaded one behind the other. The number of rods 9 is variable as a function of the size of the structure to be raised. The four rods 3 are curved in the shape of an arch and held together at one end by a connector, forming the top of the cover 1, which is covered by a fabric 2 that blocks the passage of sunlight. The base of the structure is formed by the lower ends 7 of the rods which may have attachment accessories such as plastic skewers with the hook 4 for the elastic. Each of these four ends is coupled to a clamping suction cup 10, whereby at least one suction cup is provided for each rod. Designed to work on both a dry, wet or even submerged surface, they are designed to firmly attach the entire structure to the pool walls, preferably vertical. The fabric 2 covering the upper part of the frame is held under tension by means of at least four elastics 5, the ends of which connectively draw the fabric 2 at each lower end 7 of the rods by means of rings, the hooks 4 of the skewers attached to them or to each suction cup 10.
[16] Uma segunda versão da tenda é projetada para ser utilizada sobre a terra ou areia frequentemente em jardins, campos abertos ou praia . Nesta versão da tenda, as quatro ventosas estão ausentes e as extremidades inferiores 7 das hastes com espetos plásticos são introduzidas diretamente no solo, a uma profundidade que permita a estabilização da estrutura. A montagem da tenda pode ser auxiliada por uma fita em formato de X 8 que é colocada aberta e estendida sobre o terreno, demarcando a área que será ocupada pela estrutura. Cada uma das quatro extremidades da fita, dotada de
um ilhós 6, é transpassada pela extremidade inferior 7 de cada haste que é, então, fincada no solo. Os elásticos 5 que prendem o tecido 2 ao topo da cobertura são amarrados, em suas pontas superiores, ao tecido 2 e, nas inferiores, a anéis ou ganchos 4 fixados nas extremidades inferiores 7 das hastes diretamente ou por meio de acessórios como espetos plásticos. A second version of the tent is designed to be used over land or sand often in gardens, open fields or the beach. In this version of the tent, the four suction cups are absent and the lower ends 7 of the plastic spit rods are introduced directly into the soil, at a depth which allows the structure to stabilize. The tent assembly can be assisted by an X 8-shaped tape that is placed open and extended over the ground, marking the area that will be occupied by the structure. Each of the four ends of the ribbon, equipped with an eyelet 6, is pierced by the lower end 7 of each rod which is then stuck in the ground. The elastics 5 which secure the fabric 2 to the top of the cover are tied at its upper ends to the fabric 2 and, at the lower ends, to the rings or hooks 4 fixed to the lower ends 7 of the rods either directly or by means of accessories such as plastic skewers.
[17] Em uma outra modalidade, a estrutura pode ser constituída de uma cobertura horizontal de tecido 11 sustentado por apenas duas hastes em formato de L. Esta estrutura também é constituída por uma série de varetas de seção transversal quadrada encaixadas umas às outras por meio de pinos ou roscas, formando longas hastes. A natureza modular da estrutura é responsável pela sua portabilidade e facilidade de montagem. As hastes compreendem dois segmentos, um primeiro 13 e um segundo 12, unidos em uma de suas pontas de maneira a formar entre si um ângulo de 90° 15. As hastes estão unidas pelos seus primeiros segmentos 13 por um ponto de pivotamento 14 que permite a rotação de uma haste em relação a outra em um plano paralelo à face interna da piscina. Cada primeiro segmento 13 compreendendo uma ponta inferior 16 oposta à interface com o segundo segmento, sendo que tal ponta está inserida em uma ventosa 10 projetada para operar sobre qualquer superfície lisa e plana. As hastes se posicionam de tal forma que seus segundos segmentos 12 permanecem sempre paralelos entre si e perpendiculares à face da piscina onde se fixa toda a estrutura. Estes segundos segmentos 12 sustentam, no espaço entre si, o tecido opaco 11 que oferece proteção contra a luz solar. In another embodiment, the structure may be comprised of a horizontal fabric cover 11 supported by only two L-shaped rods. This structure is also constituted by a series of square cross-section rods engaged with each other by means of pins or threads, forming long stems. The modular nature of the structure is responsible for its portability and ease of assembly. The rods comprise two segments, a first 13 and a second 12, joined at one of its ends so as to form an angle of 90 ° therebetween. The rods are joined by their first segments 13 by a pivoting point 14 which allows the rotation of one rod relative to another in a plane parallel to the inner face of the pool. Each first segment 13 comprises a lower tip 16 opposite the interface with the second segment, which tip is inserted into a suction cup 10 designed to operate on any smooth flat surface. The rods are positioned in such a way that their second segments 12 always remain parallel to each other and perpendicular to the pool face where the entire structure is secured. These second segments 12 support in the space between them the opaque fabric 11 which provides protection against sunlight.
