Definitions
- the invention relates to a fan-like sun or weather protection and in particular, but not exclusively, to a drive system for spreading the spars of such a fan-like sun or weather protection.
- a fan-shaped weather protection (hereinafter: fan) is, for example, from the European patent application EP0963495A2 known. Since it can be attached to a single point, it can be designed so that it can be rotated about several axes. In this respect, such weather protection arrangements can be set very flexibly and in a variety of ways.
- a relatively complex, mechanical drive mechanism is used for the spreading and folding of the fan.
- the drive mechanism must be able to exert the forces that are required when opening, folding, rotating and tilting the protection.
- the drive mechanism must be able to withstand any high loads on the protection from wind, rain, snow, etc.
- the drive mechanisms used so far are complex and robust.
- the speed of movement when opening or closing the fan is very limited by its drive mechanism. Thus, there is a need for a simplified drive mechanism which allows the fan to be spread open or collapsed quickly.
- the end BE396458A It is known to provide a pretensioned closing of a fan-shaped sun protection by means of two spring shafts and two corresponding pull cables which run through the eyes of the spars. So that the parts do not have to be attached individually to a wall, the spring shafts are mounted on a board together with the storage of the spars. Because of the large table, or because of the firmly mounted spring shafts, this arrangement has the disadvantage that a versatile tilting or turning of the fan is difficult or impossible. Furthermore, the spring shafts, pull ropes and eyelets represent a relatively complicated and error-prone mechanism.
- the WO01 / 23692A2 discloses a generic weather protection device with the features of the preamble, wherein a clamping bracket is arranged at intermediate positions of two bars and has a joint attached in the center of the clamping bracket, which can be pretensioned with a torsion spring.
- This mechanically complex constructed biasing element composed of the joint and the torsion spring, is arranged between the bars and directs the drive energy indirectly from the bars into the spring, whereby (drive) energy must also be used for a bending and stretching movement of the clamping bracket.
- the invention provides a fan-like sun or weather protection according to claim 1. Thanks to the pretensioning element, the fan can be spread open or folded up quickly and easily, and a complicated and expensive drive mechanism can be dispensed with.
- the term "compartments” is understood as an expandable arrangement of at least two spars, the radial inner ends of which are mounted in a common node area, which spars run essentially radially outward in a common plane, and which extend in the circumferential direction, based on an axis running orthogonally to the plane in the nodal area, can be spread apart in the said plane and brought together to one another.
- the spars form a fan-like expandable frame, which is covered with a flexible or foldable fabric such as a tarpaulin, a net, a foil, a cloth or an assembly of, for example, plates or sheets can be provided.
- tarpaulin Such a fan can form an area of at least one square meter or at least three square meters in the expanded state.
- the Figures 1 to 3 show a compartment 1, which has several spars 2, 3, 7, 7 ', a tarpaulin 8 and a junction element 4.
- six bars are shown: two of them, 2, 3, are larger, rigid outer bars which transfer a large part of the weight of the compartment 1 to the junction element 4 and which can keep the tarpaulin 8 taut when the compartment is open.
- one, 3, is the Spars firmly connected to the junction element 4, the further spars 2, 7, 7 'being rotatably mounted in the junction element 4 at their ends located radially inward.
- the junction element 4 has a pivot bearing 15, 16 for each of the movable (rotatable) bars 2,7,7 '.
- the bars 2, 3, 7, 7 'and the pivot bearings are preferably arranged in such a way that the bars 2, 3, 7, 7' can lie essentially parallel to one another in the plane of the compartment 1 when the compartment 1 is closed. For this reason, the radially inner end of the spar 2 is provided with a tapered end part.
- the junction element 4 can, for example, have two parallel plates, between which the inner ends of the spars 2, 3, 7, 7 'are mounted.
- the spars 2, 7, 7 'are rotatably mounted about axes 15 and 16, respectively, the spar 3 being firmly connected to the junction element 4.
- the spar 3 can, however, also be rotatably mounted.
- the spar 3 can also be formed as the surface of a wall. In the latter case, too, it is referred to as the spar in this description.
- the junction element 4 is shown as a single element in which all spars are mounted.
- the junction element 4 can alternatively consist of several individual elements, each element being a spar or several bars can be stored.
- the node element 4 whether consisting of one or more physical elements, is referred to in this description as a functional element.
- the individual pivot axes of the spars can be essentially parallel to one another and, for example, coaxially or at spatial distances from one another, and are roughly referred to collectively as a common spreading axis of the fan.
- the respective radial positions along the first and second spars, where the prestressing element 5 is connected or supported to the first and second spars (also called intermediate positions), can be expressed as a radial distance from the inner end of the respective spar, or as a radial distance from the expansion axis will. Unless otherwise specified, the distance from the inner end and that from the expansion axis can be understood to be practically the same.
- the gas pressure spring 5 is arranged in such a way that, when the fan is opened (as in FIG Fig. 1 shown) keeps the tarpaulin taut. In this state, the gas pressure spring has an elongated dimension of a 1 .
- the gas pressure spring is connected to the bars 2 and 3 by means of swivel joints 11 and 12, for example. If the bars 2 and 3 are taken as first and second reference axes, respectively, the extended gas pressure spring 10 has a dimension of b 1 along the second reference axis and a dimension of c 1 along a y-axis lying in the plane and orthogonal to the second reference axis .
- the prestressing element 5 is at an angle ⁇ 1 to the second reference axis.
- the values a 1 , b 1 and c 1 are preferably chosen such that the angle ⁇ 1 is at most 45 degrees, or preferably at most 35 degrees.
- the retracted gas pressure spring When compartment 1 is closed (as in Fig. 2 shown) the retracted gas pressure spring has an elongated dimension of a 2 , a dimension along the second reference axis of b 2 and a dimension along the y-axis of c 2 .
- the compartment 1 When the compartment 1 is closed, it is Biasing element 5 at an angle ⁇ 2 to the second reference axis.
- the values a 2 , b 2 and c 2 are preferably chosen such that the angle ⁇ 2 is at least 5 degrees, or preferably at least 10 degrees.
- the extent b 1 is preferably greater, or preferably at least 1.5 times as large, or preferably at least 1.8 times as large as the first distance c 1 .
- the length a 1 of the extended biasing element 5 ( Fig. 1 ) is preferably no more than twice, or preferably no more than 1.8 times as large as the length a 2 of the retracted prestressing element 5 ( Fig. 2 ).
- FIG. 1 shows the fan 1 of Fig. 1 in a closed (folded) state, in which a maximum amount of energy is stored in the gas pressure spring.
- the spars 2, 3, 7, 7 ' have been brought together completely and are parallel to each other.
- the closed or folded state could represent a partial closing or folding up, the spars 2, 3, 7, 7 'still being partially spread apart.
- the terms "close” and “closed” in this description and in the claims are used in the sense of bringing the spars together along the corresponding circumferential direction 13, and not in the sense of "locked” or “fastened together ".
- the compartment 1 may have a locking device such as the locking pin 23 for holding the compartment 1 in the closed state.
- the locking pin 23 engages in a hole or in a recess in the inclined end part of the spar 2.
- the energy stored in the pretensioning element 5 (gas pressure spring in this example) is available for spreading the fan 1 along the circumferential direction 14 (hereinafter referred to as the opening direction).
- the locking device described above can also serve as a release device, e.g. by moving the locking pin 23 out of the hole or out of the recess, whereupon the compartment 1 is spread open by means of the energy stored in the pretensioning element 5.
- the spreading is preferably carried out solely by the energy stored in the prestressing element 5, to be precise without any external mechanical drive force.
- the pretensioning element 5 is thus formed in such a way that it can store enough energy to drive the spreading open (or closing, depending on the design) of the compartment 1 between its closed state and its spread-open state.
- the release device is preferably designed so that it can be actuated from a distance of more than 1 m, such as with a rod or a remote control.
- the compartment 1, which is hung on a wall at a height of e.g. 2.5 m, can be opened using the rod or the remote control.
- the release device can be designed so that it can be operated directly by hand.
- the compartment 1 can have a damping device for damping the movement of the bars 2, 3, 7, 7 'when the compartment 1 is closed and / or when the compartment 1 is spread open.
- the gas pressure spring 5 also fulfills the function of the damping device.
- a separate damping device could, however, be arranged as one or more stand-alone elements or in the axes of rotation of the bars.
- the example shown shows an opening angle in the expanded state ( Fig. 1 ) of about 90 degrees.
- the opening angle can be larger or smaller than 90 degrees.
- a prestressing element 5 which extends between the two outermost spars 2 and 3 in the circumferential direction.
- the pretensioning element 5 can alternatively be arranged between any two of the spars, the drive and tensioning force of the pretensioning element 5 being able to be transmitted to the other spars in a different manner if necessary.
- prestressing elements 5 be arranged between the spars 2, 3, 7, 7 ', for example in an overlapping arrangement, with each prestressing element 5 jumping over a spar to which another prestressing element is connected. In this way, the opening angle of the fan 1 can be made as large as desired, for example if the junction element 4 and / or the mounting of the inner ends of the bars 2, 3, 7, 7 'are also redesigned in a suitable manner.
- the invention is explained with the aid of examples in which the tensioning energy stored in the pre-tensioning element is used to expand the fan 1.
- the compartment 1 can alternatively be designed in such a way that the energy stored in the prestressing element 5 is used to close the compartment 1 instead of opening it.
- a prestressing element 5 can be used, which is tightened when the prestressing element 5 expands linearly.
- the fan is held in the closed state by the tensioning force of the pretensioning element 5.
- the spars can be kept expanded by another means.
- a tilting mechanism 6, 9, 10, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22 is also shown, which is now also with reference to the Figures 4 and 5 is explained.
- the compartment 1 is attached or suspended from a fastening point.
- the attachment point is in the Figures 1 to 5 not illustrated.
- a suitable fastening point can be, for example, a region of a wall, a column, a stand, a roof, a roof beam, a rafter or the floor.
- the tilting mechanism is used, if necessary, to change the angle of inclination of the fan, for example in order to achieve a desired shadow effect.
- the compartment 1 can be used without the tilting mechanism, specifically without the setting element 6.
- the tilting mechanism has an adjusting element 6 which can be attached essentially rigidly to the fastening point.
- the compartment 1 is mounted on the setting element 6 by a rotary joint 17, the compartment 1 rotating about the axis X relative to the setting element 6 can.
- the setting element can be provided with further axes of rotation or joints.
- the illustrated setting element 6 has several setting openings 20 into which an setting pin 19 can be moved in order to block the rotation of the fan 1.
- the adjustment pin 19 is actuated via an actuation element 9 and an actuation connection 18.
- the actuation connection is formed, for example, as a cord or chain 18, which can be pulled by means of the actuation element 9 (e.g.
- the actuating element 9 can be designed so that it can be actuated by a user directly by hand and / or with a rod or other remote control.
- the actuation connection 18 can run at least partially through the spar 3, for example in an inner cavity of the spar 3.
- the tilting mechanism has a second biasing element 10, such as a gas spring. This extends between the junction element 4 of the fan 1 and the setting element 6 in such a way that the second prestressing element 10 pre-loads the rotational movement of the fan 1 in a direction of rotation about the axis X. In this way, a relatively heavy fan can easily be moved in the stated direction of rotation, e.g. by a user.
- a second biasing element 10 such as a gas spring.
- a first end of the second prestressing element 10 is mounted on a first bracket 21 which is rigidly or integrally connected to the junction element 4.
- the second end of the second prestressing element 10 is mounted on a second arm 22, which is rigidly or integrally connected to the adjusting element 6.
- the Figures 6 and 7 show a sun or weather protection 1, 1 ', which is essentially a mirrored version of the one in FIG Figures 1 to 5 shown fan is formed.
- Two compartments 1, 1 ' share a common spar 3, which is rigid or integral with the common Node element 4 'is connected.
- the adjustment element 6 is attached to a fastening point 33, such as a wall, a stand, a roof or the floor.
- the angle of inclination of the combined fan 1, 1 'can take place by actuating the actuating element 9.
- the movement of the fan 1, 1 ′ about the axis X is made considerably easier by the preloading second pretensioning element 10.
- the compartment 1 has a closing device 24, 25, 27, 34) for closing or folding the compartment 1.
- the bars 2, 3 are pulled together with a pulling means 25, such as a cord or a chain.
- the contraction is driven by a drive element 24, such as a crankshaft 24, 27 or a motor.
- the drive element 24 is preferably accommodated in the junction element 4 and, as in the case of the actuating element 9 described above and the triggering device 23, can be operated remotely.
- a drive ring 34 is provided which can be rotated, for example, with a hook at the end of a rod in order to close the compartment.
- the closing device can be configured in such a way that when the compartment is opened, the cord or chain 25 is withdrawn from the shaft 27 of the crankshaft or of the engine substantially with little or no resistance.
- the traction means 25 preferably runs at least partially through the spar 3.
- the adjustment element 6 is provided with a first fastening element 29, and the fastening point 33 is provided with a corresponding second fastening element 30.
- the first and second fastening elements are designed so that they engage with one another to form a frictional suspension.

- the suspension shown is designed so that the fan 1 easily from the first fastening element 29 can be removed.
- the releasable locking element is designed so that it can be operated remotely, as with the actuating element 9 described above, with the release device 23 and with the drive element 24. Thanks to this remote-controlled locking element, it is possible for one person to detach the compartment from the suspension and take it down.
- the adjustment element 6 is reinforced with support plates 31, 32.
- the reference numeral 28 relates to connecting parts of the rotary joint 17.

In der folgenden detaillierten Beschreibung werden Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung beschrieben. Der Begriff "Fächer" wird verstanden als eine aufspreizbare Anordnung von mindestens zwei Holmen, deren radialen inneren Enden sich in einem gemeinsamen Knotenbereich gelagert sind, welche Holme sich im Wesentlichen radial nach aussen in einer gemeinsamen Ebene verlaufen, und welche sich in Umfangsrichtung, bezogen auf eine orthogonal zur Ebene verlaufende Achse im Knotenbereich, in der genannten Ebene auseinander aufgespreizt und zueinander zusammengebracht werden können. Auf diese Weise bilden die Holme einen fächerartigen aufspreizbaren Rahmen, welcher mit einem flexiblen oder faltbaren Stoff wie z.B. eine Plane, ein Netz, eine Folie, ein Tuch oder ein Zusammenbau von z.B. Platten oder Blättern versehen werden kann. Diese zahlreichen möglichen Abdeckungen des Fächers werden nachstehend kollektiv durch den Begriff "Plane" bezeichnet. Ein solcher Fächer kann im aufgespreizten Zustand eine Fläche von mindestens einem Quadratmeter oder mindestens drei Quadratmeter bilden.In the following detailed description, exemplary embodiments of the invention are described. The term "compartments" is understood as an expandable arrangement of at least two spars, the radial inner ends of which are mounted in a common node area, which spars run essentially radially outward in a common plane, and which extend in the circumferential direction, based on an axis running orthogonally to the plane in the nodal area, can be spread apart in the said plane and brought together to one another. In this way, the spars form a fan-like expandable frame, which is covered with a flexible or foldable fabric such as a tarpaulin, a net, a foil, a cloth or an assembly of, for example, plates or sheets can be provided. These various possible coverings of the compartment are hereinafter referred to collectively by the term "tarpaulin". Such a fan can form an area of at least one square meter or at least three square meters in the expanded state.
Die
Zwischen den Holmen 2 und 3 erstreckt sich ein längliches Vorspannelement 5, wie z.B eine Gasdruckfeder. Die Gasdruckfeder 5 ist so angeordnet, dass sie im aufgespreizten Zustand des Fächers (wie in

Wenn der Holm 2 entlang der Umfangsrichtung 13 (nachstehend Schliessrichtung genannt) bewegt wird, so wird die Gasdruckfeder 5 angespannt, und speichert dadurch eine Energiemenge.
Der Fächer 1 kann eine Sperreinrichtung, wie z.B. der Sperrstift 23 zum Halten des Fächers 1 im geschlossenen Zustand aufweisen. Beim Schliessen des Fächers rastet der Sperrstift 23 in ein Loch bzw. in eine Ausnehmung im schrägen Endteil des Holms 2 ein.The
Im geschlossenen Zustand (siehe
Die vorhin beschriebene Sperreinrichtung kann auch als Auslöseeinrichtung dienen, z.B. indem der einrastende Sperrstift 23 aus dem Loch bzw. aus der Ausnehmung bewegt wird, worauf der Fächer 1 mittels der im Vorspannelement 5 gespeicherten Energie aufgespreizt wird. Vorzugsweise erfolgt das Aufspreizen lediglich durch die im Vorspannelement 5 gespeicherte Energie, und zwar ohne jegliche externe mechanische Antriebskraft. Das Vorspannelement 5 ist somit so gebildet, dass es genügend Energie speichern kann, um das Aufspreizen (bzw. Schliessen, je nach Ausführung) des Fächers 1 zwischen seinem geschlossenen Zustand und seinem aufgespreizten Zustand anzutreiben. Die Auslöseeinrichtung ist vorzugsweise so gebildet, dass sie aus einer Entfernung von mehr als 1m betätigt werden kann, wie z.B. mit einer Stange oder einer Fernbedienung. Somit kann der z.B. an einer Wand in Höhe von z.B. 2,5m aufgehängte Fächer 1 mittels der Stange bzw. der Fernbedienung aufgemacht werden. In einer anderen Konstellation des Fächers 1 (z.B. wo der Fächer 1 am Boden befestigt ist), kann die Auslöseeinrichtung so gestaltet werden, dass sie direkt von Hand betätigt werden kann.The locking device described above can also serve as a release device, e.g. by moving the locking
Der Fächer 1 kann eine Dämpfungseinrichtung zur Dämpfung der Bewegung der Holme 2,3,7,7' beim Schliessen und/oder beim Aufspreizen des Fächers 1 aufweisen. Im abgebildeten Beispiel erfüllt die Gasdruckfeder 5 auch die Funktion der Dämpfungseinrichtung. Eine separate Dämpfungseinrichtung könnte jedoch als ein oder mehrere alleinstehende Elemente bzw. in den Drehachsen der Holmen angeordnet werden.The

Im abgebildeten Beispiel ist ein Vorspannelement 5 veranschaulicht, welches sich zwischen den zwei in Umfangsrichtung äussersten Holmen 2 und 3 erstreckt. Das Vorspannelement 5 kann alternativ zwischen zwei beliebigen der Holme angeordnet sein, wobei die Antriebs- und Anspannkraft des Vorspannelements 5 bei Bedarf auf andere Weise an die weiteren Holme übertragen werden kann. Es können auch mehrere Vorspannelemente 5 zwischen den Holmen 2,3,7,7' angeordnet werden, z.B. in einer überlappenden Anordnung wobei jedes Vorspannelement 5 einen Holm überspringt, zu welchem ein anderes Vorspannelement verbunden ist. Auf diese Weise kann der Öffnungswinkel des Fächers 1 beliebig gross gemacht werden, z.B. wenn das Knotenelement 4 und/oder die Lagerung der inneren Enden der Holme 2,3,7,7' auch auf geeignete Weise umgestaltet werden.In the example shown, a
In dieser Beschreibung wird die Erfindung anhand von Beispielen erklärt, in welchem die im Vorspannelement gespeicherte Anspannenergie zum Aufspreizen des Fächers 1 dient. Es ist jedoch zu beachten, dass der Fächer 1 alternativ so gestaltet werden kann, dass die im Vorspannelement 5 gespeicherte Energie zum Schliessen statt Öffnen des Fächers 1 dient. Es kann z.B. ein Vorspannelement 5 eingesetzt werden, welches sich bei der linearen Ausdehnung des Vorspannelements 5 angespannt wird. Im letzteren Fall wird der Fächer im geschlossenen Zustand durch die Anspannkraft des Vorspannelements 5 gehalten werden. Im aufgespreizten Zustand des Fächers 1 können die Holme mit einem anderen Mittel aufgespreizt gehalten werden.In this description, the invention is explained with the aid of examples in which the tensioning energy stored in the pre-tensioning element is used to expand the

Zu diesem Zweck weist der Kippmechanismus ein Einstellelement 6 auf, welches am Befestigungspunkt im Wesentlichen starr angebracht werden kann. Der Fächer 1 ist am Einstellelement 6 durch ein Rotationsgelenk 17 gelagert, wobei der Fächer 1 sich relativ zum Einstellelement 6 um die Achse X drehen kann. Um die Vielfalt der Einstellungsmöglichkeiten zu erhöhen kann das Einstellelement mit weiteren Drehachsen bzw. -gelenken versehen werden. Das abgebildete Einstellelement 6 weist mehrere Einstellöffnungen 20 auf, in welche ein Einstellstift 19 bewegt werden kann um dabei die Rotation des Fächers 1 zu sperren. Die Betätigung des Einstellstifts 19 erfolgt über ein Betätigungselement 9 und eine Betätigungsverbindung 18. In diesem Beispiel ist die Betätigungsverbindung beispielsweise als eine Schnur oder Kette 18 gebildet, die mittels des Betätigungselements 9 (etwa eine drehbare Welle) gezogen werden kann, um ein Ausrasten des Einstellstifts aus der entsprechenden Einstellöffnung zu erwirken. Wie bei der oben beschriebenen Auslöseeinrichtung kann das Betätigungselement 9 so gestaltet werden, dass es direkt von Hand und/oder mit einer Stange oder sonstiger Fernbedienung von einem Benutzer betätigt werden kann. Die Betätigungsverbindung 18 kann mindestens teilweise durch den Holm 3, etwa in einem inneren Hohlraum des Holms 3 verlaufen.For this purpose, the tilting mechanism has an adjusting
Im abgebildeten Beispiel weist der Kippmechanismus ein zweites Vorspannelement 10 auf, wie z.B. eine Gasdruckfeder. Diese erstreckt sich derart zwischen dem Knotenelement 4 des Fächers 1 und dem Einstellelement 6, dass das zweite Vorspannelement 10 die Drehbewegung des Fächers 1 in einer Drehrichtung um die Achse X vorbelastet. Auf diese Weise kann sich ein relativ schwerer Fächer z.B. von einem Benutzer leicht in der genannten Drehrichtung bewegen lassen.In the example shown, the tilting mechanism has a
In diesem Beispiel ist ein erstes Ende des zweiten Vorspannelements 10 an einem ersten Ausleger 21 gelagert, welcher mit dem Knotenelement 4 starr oder einstückig verbunden ist.
