Definitions

  • the invention relates to an awning with an awning fabric, the front edge of which is attached to an edge strip, with which the awning fabric is pulled off when stretching from a fabric shaft, on which it is wound into an awning fabric bale, which can rest on a support surface which is at least a large one Part of the peripheral surface facing the edge strip of the awning fabric bale wound on the fabric shaft is supported.
  • An awning of the type described in more detail at the outset is known (DE-A-26 20 112), in which the fabric shaft with the awning fabric wound thereon is floatingly supported in a tube which has a tangentially adjoining outlet slot for the awning fabric in its upper part.
  • the awning fabric bale is pressed by the pulling force exerted by the awning fabric in the area of the outlet slot against the inner surface of the cylindrical tube, which supports the awning fabric bale on both sides of the outlet slot.
  • This known device has the disadvantage that the awning fabric sliding along the inner wall of the cylindrical housing tube during rolling and unrolling is heavily worn and that dirt strips form in particular in the area of the seams.
  • the awning pull must be very high and the braking force exerted on the awning fabric shaft must be large enough so that the awning fabric bale lifts up to the exit slot during winding and unwinding.
  • roller blinds (DE-A-26 31 747) to hold and guide the cloth bale between the upper and lower guide bands, which comprise the rolling curtain web on its top and bottom and even run around guide rollers, which are stored in circular segments above and below the curtain roller.
  • the object of the invention is to effectively support the fabric shaft of very wide awnings in such a way that when the awning fabric bale is fully wound, it does not bend significantly forward or downward and the awning fabric is little stressed during winding and unwinding and does not form any folds.
  • the fabric shaft has bearings which can be moved back and forth in the tensioning direction of the awning fabric and whose path length is adjustable.
  • This embodiment has the advantage that the main load of the fabric shaft during winding and unwinding is primarily absorbed by the two bearings at the ends of the fabric shaft, with only very low frictional forces being exerted on the incoming or outgoing awning fabric, but that the awning fabric bale is supported on almost all of its width on its front and underside by the support surface when the awning fabric bale fills up completely and the awning fabric shaft bends downwards and forwards under the heavy weight of the fully wrapped awning fabric bale and under the tension exerted by the edge strip.
  • the fabric shaft bearings initially slide forward until they are stopped by stops when part of the awning cover has been unwound. The then less loaded fabric shaft then no longer needs support on its outer circumference and the fabric can roll freely without sliding along the support surface.
  • the support surface extends over almost the entire length of the fabric shaft and is arranged on a partially cylindrical support strip which is supported by a plurality of holders arranged distributed over the length of the fabric shaft.
  • the curvature of the cylindrical surface is expediently adapted to the curvature of the outer circumference of the awning fabric bale completely wound on the fabric shaft.
  • the support strip can have a guide edge for the awning fabric which is directed towards the edge strip and on which the awning fabric can slide as it is pulled off.
  • the guide edge is appropriately convexly curved upwards, so that the awning fabric always has a large contact surface, even if the articulated arms of an articulated arm awning incline after opening and tilt the edge strip from its vertical position into an inclined position.
  • the support strip can advantageously consist of a thin sheet if it has stiffeners and fastening means on its side facing away from the fabric shaft, with which it is fastened to the holders.
  • the cloth shaft preferably has essentially horizontally displaceable sliding bearings at its ends, which can be moved back and forth independently of one another against adjustable stops.
  • This configuration has the advantage that at the end of the winding process the fabric shaft can be tilted somewhat, so that an edge strip closes the awning housing without a gap and is attached to an obliquely cut off edge of the awning fabric.
  • the cloth shaft can be supported at its ends in sliding blocks, which slide in the slide guides of bearing supports.
  • each sliding block can be ascertainable at any point on its slide guide and it is possible to adjust and limit the slide path of the slide blocks by means of adjustable stops in the slide guide.
  • 10 denotes a large-width awning, which is arranged in an awning box 11.
  • the awning box 11 is fastened with an awning support 12 to a house wall, not shown, and receives the fabric shaft 13 with the awning fabric bale 14 wound thereon.
  • the awning box 11 is closed by an edge strip 15 which has a welt groove 16 in its upper part, in which the front edge 17 of the awning fabric 18 is fastened with a welt 19.
  • the cloth shaft 13 has at its ends 13a and 13b shaft journals 20, with which it is rotatably mounted in sliding blocks 21, which form the bearings with the shaft journals 20.
  • the sliding blocks 21 are in turn mounted in link guides 22 of bearing brackets 23 in such a way that they can move back and forth independently of one another in the direction of the arrows 24 and 25 in the direction of the edge strip 15.
  • the bearing supports 23 are integrated in the head plates 11, which are fastened to the end faces of the awning box 10.
  • the sliding blocks 21 can be fixed in any position with clamping screws 27 which are screwed into the bearing supports 23 in the area of the link guides 22.
  • an adjusting screw 27 ' is provided in each bearing bracket 23, which extends in the longitudinal direction of the bearing bracket 23 and serves as a stop with which the path length s of the sliding blocks 21 or the shaft journals 20, which form the roller shaft bearings, can be adjusted.
  • the peripheral surface 28 facing the edge strip 15 of the awning cover bale 14 wound on the cover shaft 13 for the most part bears on its front and underside against a support surface 29 which is formed by the concave inside of a partially cylindrical support strip 30.
  • the support bar 30 extends over almost the entire length of the fabric shaft 13 and is supported by a plurality of holders 31 arranged distributed over the length L of the fabric shaft 13. Each holder 31 is fastened to the awning housing 11 with pins 32 and clamps 33 and has support cams 34 and locking teeth 35 to which the support strip 30 can be fastened.
  • the support strip 30 has on its side 36 facing away from the fabric shaft 13 a stiffening 37 and fastening means 38 and 39 in the form of claws which engage behind the locking teeth 35.
  • the support strip 30 On its upper edge 40, the support strip 30 carries a convexly curved guide edge 41 directed towards the edge strip 15, on the curved surface 42 of which the awning fabric 18 can slide when the edge strip 15 is moved forwards and downwards by the articulated arms of the awning, not shown, and that Awning cloth 18 is pulled off the cloth shaft 13.
  • the fabric shaft 13 rotates in a clockwise direction with the awning fabric bale 14. Under the tension exerted on the awning fabric 18, the fabric shaft 13 moves in the direction of arrow 25 to the right, so that the fully wound awning fabric bale 14 is first pressed against the support surface 29 of the support bar 30. With a decreasing awning fabric bale diameter, the shaft journals 20 move with their sliding blocks 21 in the link guides 22 of the bearing brackets 23 in the direction of the arrow 25 to the right until the sliding blocks 21 rest against the set screws 27 'serving as stops. The fabric shaft 13 can then rotate freely and the rolled awning fabric 18 no longer grinds along the support surface 29.
  • the path length s of the sliding blocks 21 is thus limited with the aid of the set screws 27 'and can also be set to be of unequal length. This makes it possible to tilt the fabric shaft 13 within certain limits and to achieve that an awning fabric cut at an angle is wound straight and without folds.
  • the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiment shown and described, but several changes and additions are possible without leaving the scope of the invention.
