Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for coupling cloth rolls, arranged in line, of sunshades which are placed side by side, whereby take-up means are provided in the facing ends of the cloth rolls, said take-up means having recesses having an unround section for receiving a coupling piece having a corresponding section.
  • each sunshade is provided with an operating mechanism for rolling up or rolling out the cloth.
  • the purpose of the invention is to obtain a device by means of which it is possible to couple the cloth rolls together in a simple manner.
  • the coupling piece is adjustable in its longitudinal direction by means of an adjusting means connected to one of the cloth rolls between a first position, in which the coupling piece is located at least substantially within the boundary of the one sunshade, and a second position, in which the coupling piece extends into both unround recesses of the adjacently arranged take-up means of the two sunshades.
  • the cloth rolls may be formed in the usual manner by extruded tubes 10, in whose longitudinal direction there is formed an open groove 11 for receiving the end of a cloth 12 wound around the tube in question.
  • the free end of the cloth 12 is fixed in the usual manner to an end profile 13, which is fitted to arms 14, said arms 14 being pivotally coupled with their lower ends to a support 15 fixed to the wall of a building or the like.
  • the covers 4 - 6 will be fixed to the wall of a building or the like with supports 16.
  • a take-up means consisting of two parts 18 and 19, is connected to the tube 9 belonging to the sunshade 2.
  • the part 19 is built up of a casing 20 with recesses 21 for receiving the fingers 17 and the part of the tube 9 bounding the space 11.
  • the casing 20 is closed at one end by a transveric plate 22. At the other end and casing is provided with an outwardly projecting flange 23, which butts against the end of the tube 9.
  • An insert part 24 of part 18 is pressed in the interior of the part 19, whilst one end of said insert part 24, having smaller diameter, is passed through a hole provided in the wall 22 of the part 19 and is provided with a retainer ring 25.
  • the part 18 furthermore comprises a thick flange 26, whose external diameter corresponds with the external diameter of the flange 23.
  • a cilindrical part 27 joins the flange 26 at the side of the flange remote from the insert part 24, said cilindrical part being accommodated freely rotatably in a bearing 28.
  • the bearing 28 is accommodated in a support 29 fixed to the cover 5.
  • a take-up means 30 which is provided with a part 31 extending into the interior of the tube 9.
  • the part 31 has recesses for receiving the fingers 17 and the part of the tube 9 bounding the space 10, in a similar manner as described above for the part 19 of the take-up means 18, 19 so that also this take-up means 30 is secured against rotation relatively to the tube 9.
  • the take-up means 30 furthermore has an outwardly projecting flange 32 forming one unit with the part 31 inserted into the tube 9, which butts against the end of the tube 9.
  • the take-up means is provided with a cilindrical part 33, which is supported by a bearing 34.
  • the bearing 34 is accommodated in a support 35, which is fixed to a side wall of the cover 1.
  • co-axial passages 36, 37 respectively are provided in the part 18 of the take-up means 18,19 and in the take-up means 30, said passages having an unround section, square in the present case, as appears from fig 3.
  • a coupling piece 38 also having an unround section, more in particular a square section (figs 2, 6), is accommodated, movable in its longitudinal direction, in said passages 36, 37 which are in line.
  • the coupling piece 38 is thereby provided in one angular point with a rack gearing for co-operation with a pinion 39 which is rotatably accommodated, by means of bearing bushes 40, in a bore 41 provided in the flange 26 of the part 18 of the take-up means 18, 19.
  • the centre line of said bore extends perpendicularly to a plane extending through the centre line of the cloth roll in question, such that the centre line of the cloth roll in question and the centre line of the bore 41 cross each other perpendicularly.
  • Threaded bores are furthermore provided in the flange 26, on both sides of the hole 36 receiving the coupling piece 38, for receiving tapped bolts 44, which are provided at their ends with heads 45, which are also provided with hexagonal recesses in a manner known by itself.
  • the coupling piece 38 can be moved in its longitudinal direction by rotating the pinion 39 by means of a spanner inserted into one of the bolt heads 43.
  • the coupling piece can be retracted from the position illustrated in fig 2, in which said coupling piece 38 couples the two take-up means 18, 19 and 30, and therewith the two co-axial cloth rolls 9, together into a position in which said coupling means is located at least entirely within the outer boundary of the cover 5 of the sunshade 2.
  • the coupling means does not form an impeding obstacle, so that in this position of the coupling means the various sunshades can be arranged side by side or removed.
  • Rings 47 are furthermore provided under the heads 45, which rings will be pressed against a wall part of the part 18, at the spot of a recess provided in the part 18 for receiving the bolt heads 43 and 45, as well as against the outer circumference of a projecting nose 48 of the part 19, as a result of which the parts 18 and 19 are secured against rotation relatively to each other.
  • fig 9 illustrates a coupling means 49 formed by a square bar, the angular points 50 of said coupling means being provided with screw thread with a pitch circle 51.
  • such a coupling piece can be accommodated, movable in its longitudinal direction in a take-up means consisting of two parts 52 and 53, whereby the parts 52 and 53 basically correspond with the parts 18 and 19 described above, and be accommodated again in the end of a tube 9. Furthermore the coupling piece is movable in a supporting piece 54 located in a bearing 28, said supporting piece having a circular external section and thus being accommodated freely rotatably in the bearing 28, whilst the means is provided with a hole whose section corresponds with the section of the coupling piece 49.
  • the external diameter of said nut at least substantially corresponding with the external diameter of the tube 9 in the illustrated embodiment.
  • the nut 55 is knurled at its outer circumference.
  • a slot extending radially from the outside, is provided in the part 53 in order to obtain the necessary clamping between parts 52 and 53, whilst the parts located on both sides of said slot can be clamped by means of a bolt 56 passed through said parts.
