Definitions

  • the invention relates to a sun protection device provided with a sun blocking part and a supporting part for supporting the sun blocking part, wherein the sun blocking part preferably comprises a screen that can be slid in and slid out.
  • sun protection devices for verandas are provided with a supporting part and a sun blocking part.
  • the sun blocking part usually comprises a screen that is intended to offer protection against the sun.
  • Such sun protection devices may be constructed with a screen that can be slid in and slid out along side guides. By sliding the screen in and out, known sun protection devices can to a certain extent be adjusted to weather conditions. When the sun disappears behind the clouds, the screen can, for example, be slid away, and when the sun comes back, the screen can be slid back. Sun protection devices with a screen that cannot be slid in and out lack this adjustment possibility.
  • the known sun protection device will offer optimum protection against the sun only during a part of the day. The fact is, even with a wholly slid-out screen, it can easily happen that the known screen does not offer adequate protection against a low sun. This can be quite a nuisance to a user who, under the screen, finds the low sun annoyingly shining on him.
  • the invention provides a sun protection device, provided with a sun blocking part and a supporting part for supporting the sun blocking part, wherein the sun blocking part preferably comprises a screen that can be slid in and slid out, wherein the supporting part comprises at least a first support element and a second support element which are immovably connected with each other and extend in mutually different directions along the sun blocking part, wherein the sun blocking part is tiltably connected to the supporting part according to a tilting axis, which extends between two mutually spaced apart points of which a first point is associated with the first support element and a second point is associated with the second support element.
  • the sun blocking part can be tilted with respect to the supporting part, it can be adjusted to the position of the sun.
  • the sun protection device offers protection from the sun during a relatively large part of a sunny day, without the dimensions of the sun protection device needing to be enlarged for this purpose.
  • the two mutually spaced apart points are preferably chosen for reducing, and preferably minimizing, a moment that the weight of the sun blocking part exerts on attachments of the sun blocking part to the supporting part.
  • Directions that are not in line with each other in a straight line can be regarded as mutually different directions.
  • the sun protection device additionally offers a surprising advantage.
  • unwanted material such as rainwater or leaves
  • tilting the sun blocking part unwanted material, such as rainwater or leaves, can be removed from the sun protection device.
  • Such removal can occur in that the unwanted material of itself falls off the sun blocking part.
  • the unwanted material may be better accessible, so that it can be removed, for example, using a broom, garden hose and/or high pressure cleaner.
  • the sun blocking part comprises a screen that can be slid in, and for example pulled in, and can be slid out, and for example pulled out.
  • the sun protection device is considered to be particularly advantageous.
  • many sliding screens are sensitive to the unwanted material that may be left on the screen.
  • water may be entrained, causing the screen to remain wet for a long time.
  • the quality of the screen may deteriorate rapidly.
  • the unwanted material may soil means for sliding the screen in and out. This may compromise the proper functioning of these means, such as windup means and side guides for the screen.
  • the first point coincides with the first support element and a second point coincides with the second support element. It will be clear that in this manner the first point is associated with the first support element and a second point is associated with the second support element.
  • the first point may be located in line with the first support element, preferably near the first support element.
  • the second point may be located in line with the second support element, preferably near the second support element.
  • the sun blocking part is situated at least partly between the two mutually spaced apart points.
  • a moment that the weight of the sun blocking part exerts on the attachments of the sun blocking part to the supporting part will be reduced.
  • the mutually different directions in which the first and second support element extend are directed transversely to each other. In another embodiment, the mutually different directions in which the first and second support element extend are directed substantially parallel to each other. Optionally, the mutually different directions in which the first and second support element extend are directed obliquely to each other.
  • the first support element and the second support element are formed by substantially horizontally extending girders.
  • Such substantially horizontally extending girders in use, make, for example, an angle of at most 30 degrees with the horizontal. With such substantially horizontally extending girders, a sturdy support of the sun blocking part can be achieved.
  • the first support element and the second support element are included in a framework formed by the supporting part, which framework, preferably wholly, surrounds the sun blocking part.
  • a framework results in a construction of great sturdiness.
  • “Wholly surrounding” is involved when the framework forms an all-round closed periphery around the sun blocking part.
  • “Surrounding” is already involved when the framework surrounds the sun blocking part in part, though for a substantial part.
  • the framework then forms, for example, a minimum of 80 percent of the fully closed periphery around the sun blocking part.
  • the framework can comprise, for example, four, such as just four, substantially horizontal girders.
  • the framework, and preferably the four girders can extend, for example, in one plane.
  • the framework and preferably the four girders, can form, for example, a rectangle, a trapezium or a parallelogram.
  • the framework can form a triangle.
  • the plane in which the framework, and preferably the four girders, extends, is, for example, with the sun blocking part in untilted situation, (approximately) parallel to a plane in which the sun blocking part extends.
  • the framework comprises a tubular section of preferably rectangular cross section.
  • the tubular section can form an inner surface of the framework, which inner surface faces the sun blocking part.
  • the first and the second point, between which the tilting axis extends, can then be located, for example, on the inner surface of the tubular section.
  • the sun blocking part has at least two ends by which it is tiltably connected to the supporting part at the two mutually spaced apart points.
  • the at least two ends are formed by corners of the sun blocking part.
  • the ends can be formed, for example, by opposite corners of the sun blocking part, for example, when the sun blocking part has at least four corners.
  • the at least two ends are formed by adjacent corners. Between adjacent corners no other corner is located. In this manner, during tilting, the sun blocking part will move practically wholly in the same direction, for example, upwards or downwards. This makes tilting straightforward, which can prevent accidents.
  • the at least two ends are formed by different longitudinal edges of the sun blocking part.
  • the at least two ends are opposite longitudinal edges. Opposite longitudinal edges are involved when the shortest path between the longitudinal edges crosses the, preferably wholly slid-out, screen. The screen is then between the opposite longitudinal edges.
  • the sun protection device is adapted for, at will of the user, tilting the sun blocking part in one of at least two different directions.
  • tilting the sun blocking part in one of at least two different directions.
  • the sun blocking part is tiltable in a plane that is directed transversely to a plane in which the sun blocking part extends.
  • an orientation of the sun blocking part can be effectively adjusted to the position of the sun.
  • the fact is, in this manner it is possible to change an angle of the plane in which the sun blocking part extends with respect to the sun, while the supporting part is at rest.
  • the sun blocking part may, for example, in use be connected to the supporting part so as to be tiltable in a substantially vertically oriented plane.
  • the sun blocking part may, for example, in use be connected to the supporting part so as to be tiltable in a substantially horizontally oriented plane. It will be clear that these tilting possibilities in a substantially vertically and horizontally oriented plane respectively, alone and in combination, are favorable for achieving an effective protection against the sun.
  • the sun protection device is provided with positioning means for setting the angle of tilt of the sun blocking part with respect to the supporting part.
  • positioning means for setting the angle of tilt of the sun blocking part with respect to the supporting part.
  • the positioning means during setting of the angle of tilt operate the sun blocking part by exertion of a force on the sun blocking part from the supporting part.
  • the supporting part offers a mechanically favorable point of application for the force between the sun blocking part and the supporting part.
  • the supporting part is provided with the positioning means.
  • the sun blocking part is provided with at least one, and preferably two, attachment points to which the positioning means, in use, are connected with the sun blocking part.
  • the at least one attachment point is located at a distance from the (imaginary) tilting axis and the first point that is associated with the first support element and a second point that is associated with the second support element. A moment on connections by which the sun blocking part is tiltably connected to the supporting part is thereby reduced.
  • the positioning means comprise a flexible element which is attached to the at least one attachment point, the positioning means being adapted for setting the angle of tilt of the sun blocking part with respect to the supporting part by paying out and/or retracting the flexible element.
  • the flexible element can be, for example, a cord, a chain and/or a band.
  • the positioning means further comprise a windup means, the windup means being attached to the supporting part, while the flexible element can be unwound from and wound onto the windup means, the positioning means being adapted for setting an angle of tilt of the sun blocking part with respect to the supporting part by unwinding and/or winding the flexible element on the windup means.
  • the windup means can comprise, for example, a rotatable element such as a roll.
  • the flexible element is formed by a flexible sun protection cloth. This can, at least partly, prevent sun shining in between the windup means and the sun blocking part.
  • a sun blocking action of the sun protection device can be improved.
  • the at least one attachment point is situated along an edge of the sun blocking part, such that the flexible sun protection cloth extends over a width that is approximately equal to a width of the sun blocking part.
  • the sun protection device is provided with a housing which substantially encloses the windup means. In this way, the windup means can be protected from damage.
  • the positioning means are adapted for setting a plurality of angles of tilt of the sun blocking part with respect to the supporting part, the plurality of angles of tilt being within a predetermined angular range.
  • the angle of tilt is continuously adjustable within the predetermined angular range.
  • the plurality of different angles of tilt are at least ten, and more preferably at least fifty, different angles of tilt.
  • the supporting part is provided with at least one leg, preferably at least two legs, more preferably with four legs. With these, a sturdy support can be achieved.
  • At least one leg is, and preferably all legs are, removable from the supporting part.
  • This provides an enhanced flexibility and hence more possibilities in placing the supporting part.
  • Legs near any place of attachment of the supporting part to another object, for example, a tree or fence, are sometimes redundant, so that it is handy if they can be removed from the supporting part and, for example, can be stored elsewhere.
  • the sun protection device is provided with attachment means for, preferably detachable, attachment of the supporting part to a shelter, such as a house, a tent, a shed, or a caravan.
  • a shelter such as a house, a tent, a shed, or a caravan.
  • the attachment means are adapted for attachment of the supporting part according to, at will of the user, a first attachment or a second attachment, while the substantially vertically oriented plane in the first attachment extends in a first direction that differs from a second direction in which the substantially vertically oriented plane in the second attachment extends.
  • the supporting part as an awning is, preferably detachably, attached to the shelter.
  • the supporting part is, preferably detachably, attached by the first and/or the second substantially horizontal girder to the shelter.
  • the sun protection device is adapted to be placed on a veranda and/or to be attached to the veranda.
  • the supporting part is, preferably wholly, movable. Accordingly, also the sun protection device is movable. Accordingly, at will of the user, the sun protection device can be put in a place determined by the user. Accordingly, the sun protection device can be optimally positioned for protecting the user against the sun.
  • the movable sun protection device can be placed, for example, in a better spot, if the user chooses to sit in a different place.
  • a size of the sun blocking part is chosen such that, in use, a sun blocking surface of the sun blocking part is greater, for example, more than twice or more than ten times greater, than a sun blocking surface of the supporting part, with the sun blocking part preferably in wholly slid-out condition.
  • a sun blocking surface of the sun blocking part is greater, for example, more than twice or more than ten times greater, than a sun blocking surface of the supporting part, with the sun blocking part preferably in wholly slid-out condition.
  • the sun protection device is adapted for, at will of a user, tilting the sun blocking part from an untilted situation in one of at least two different directions.
  • This is especially relevant for the embodiment in which the at least two ends are opposite ends.
  • a part of the sun blocking part that in one tilting direction moves up and is higher than in an untilted situation, can in the other tilting direction move down and be lower than in an untilted situation.
  • the sun protection device provided with the supporting part, is further substantially free of obstacles that in use render a free access to a space under the sun blocking part more difficult. This augments a user convenience of the sun blocking part.
  • the sun blocking part is provided with at least one attachment section, preferably a plurality of attachment sections.
  • Such attachment sections are preferably detachably connected with different elements, such as the girders and the legs, of the supporting part.
  • the attachment sections afford a user the possibility of detaching and/or individually replacing the different elements of the supporting part.

  • the first support element and the second support element are connected with each other and/or with other elements of the framework by means of the at least one coupling piece.
  • the at least one attachment section of the at least one coupling piece is slid into and/or over the first support element and/or the second support element.
  • the framework has a number of corner points, while on or near each corner point there is one of the coupling pieces.
  • the at least one leg comprises, and/or preferably all legs comprise, a foot.
  • a support of the leg to which the foot is connected can be improved. This may be especially important when the leg is placed on a soft or relatively unstable ground, such as clay or sand.
  • the foot is detachably connected to a main part of the leg. Accordingly, the foot can, for example, be replaced separately from the main part of the leg. As a result, for example, the foot can be relatively easily adapted to the ground on which the leg is placed.

  • Many shelters are, for example, oriented differently with respect to the sun, so that for different shelters attachment by a different side to the shelter may be necessary.
  • a sun protection device is configured for such different attachments, fewer different types of the sun protection device can suffice. This entails lower costs of production and logistics.

  • the unwanted material can be prevented from coming down, as a result of tilting, at an undesirable spot.
  • Such undesirable spots will vary from one shelter to another, so that this choice can be important.
