Description

The invention relates to a vehicle awning with awning cloth and awning arms. Vehicle awnings are already known. A disadvantage of known vehicle awnings that they are not suitable for certain applications and / or that they have no desirable compact dimensions in the closed state and / or that they produce consuming and / or are not durable.

From the EP 0 030 398 A2 is a first awning known, with only stacked, pivoting arms. The publication also shows a different awning, in which arms are arranged exclusively next to each other.

The EP 0 011 041 A1 discloses an automatic shelter for commercial vehicles or caravans, with only adjacent arms.

The invention has set itself the task of creating a vehicle awning, which is improved at least with regard to one of the disadvantages mentioned.

This object is achieved by the reproduced in claim 1 vehicle awning.

The vehicle awning according to the invention has an awning cloth and awning arms, which are pivotally mounted at one of their ends about a pivot axis.

Advantageously, the awning on a base element. The awning arms are preferably mounted on the remaining awning, particularly preferably on the base element of the awning.

The end of the awning arms, with which they are pivotally mounted about a pivot axis, is referred to in the context of this document as the bearing end of the awning arms and the other end is also referred to as the free end.

Preferably, the vehicle awning comprises at least two awning arms, more preferably exactly four.

The awning fabric is advantageously attached to one or more edges of an awning arm, and more preferably another edge to the base member. Preferably, the awning cloth is clamped in the open state of the awning using the base member and the arms. The awning fabric preferably has corners that are displaceable away from the base element by awning arms for tensioning the awning fabric. The corners of the awning fabric are advantageously connected to the free ends of the awning arms.

The awning arms are pivotable about the pivot axis for opening and closing the awning. The awning opens with opening the awning with advantage circular. The opening direction of the awning is preferably perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the awning arms when the awning is closed.

The awning arms are pivotally mounted with advantage by means of a pivot bearing, which preferably comprises a pivot bearing. The pivot axis is advantageously perpendicular to the longitudinal extent of the awning arms. The pivot axis runs when mounted on the vehicle awning preferably at least substantially perpendicular.

All awning arms pivot with advantage always in the same direction.

The vehicle awning may be, for example, a motor home awning, such as a camping bus awning, a SUV awning or a caravan awning.

Advantageously, the awning can be operated by hand. The awning includes so advantageously no crank mechanism or engine.

Each awning arm is preferably pivotable through an angle that differs from the pivoting angles of the other awning arms. At least one awning arm - with advantage exactly one and preferably the most pivotable awning arm - is advantageously pivotable up to 270 °.

The awning arms are tiltably mounted to advantage about a tilting axis, preferably at its end of storage. The tilting axis is preferably perpendicular to the pivot axis and more preferably perpendicular to the longitudinal extension of the awning arms. The tilting axis preferably extends at least approximately horizontally when the awning is mounted on the vehicle. The awning arms are thus preferably mounted at one end with two rotational degrees of freedom, namely preferably pivotable and tiltable.

Advantageously, the awning arms are tiltably mounted such that, starting from a central position, in the case of the awning mounted on the vehicle, they can only be tilted upwards and back downwards into this central position. The middle layer can correspond to the useful position, that is to say the position which the arms assume with the awning mounted on the vehicle with the awning completely open and constructed. Preferably, the free ends of the awning arms are slightly more inclined downwards in the middle position, as in the Nutzlage. Advantageously, the free ends of the arms in the central position are less than one or one and a half meters lower, compared to the Nutzulage arranged. The awning can be easily built in this way by one person, since the awning arms are advantageously free-bearing, their free ends when mounted on the vehicle awning so even without support preferably not fall to the ground. Compared with an arrangement in which the awning arms are not tiltable, the advantage is achieved that damage or deformation can be avoided. The arms can be raised, for example, by the tailgate of the vehicle, the wind or the user, without causing damage.

Advantageously, a tilting joint is provided for providing the tiltability, which advantageously comprises a pivot bearing. The tiltability is thus advantageously not exclusively about elasticity or play in the pivot bearing.

The tilting joint preferably has a stop which preferably defines the central position of the awning arms by limiting the tiltability of the free ends of the awning arms downwards when the awning is mounted on the vehicle.

According to the invention, the pivot axis of at least two awning arms coincide and further from at least two awning arms do not match, creating a condition for a particularly advantageous and compact construction of the awning is created.

Advantageously, two arms are mounted one above the other pivotally. Preferably, not all arms are pivotally mounted one above the other.

The awning arms are stored with advantage at different heights on the other awning. The awning arms are advantageously stored only in exactly one first and exactly a second height to the other awning. The awning arm pivoting the second time when the awning is opened is advantageously arranged at a first height which, with the awning mounted on the vehicle, is preferably higher than the second height. The awning arm which pivots furthest when the awning is opened is advantageously arranged at a second height which, with the awning mounted on the vehicle, is preferably lower than the first height. The high arrangement of the second-most pivotable arm can be created at an important place under the awning more space, such as opening the tailgate of a camping bus.

Preferably, awning arms are pivotally mounted side by side, but not all awning arms with advantage.

In the closed state of the awning according to the invention awning arms are arranged side by side and one above the other. Therefore, a particularly compact awning can be achieved in the closed state.

Advantageously, parallel spaced pivot axes are provided. The awning advantageously has exactly two different pivot axes.

Preferably, a first pivot axis is provided, which is spaced in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the arms in the closed state of the awning and / or perpendicular to this direction from a second pivot axis. The distance is preferably greater than the simple thickness of an awning arm, but less than twice, three or four times the thickness of an awning arm.

The direction of the longitudinal extent of the arms in the closed state of the awning is preferably in line with the longitudinal direction of the vehicle when the awning is mounted on the vehicle.

The awning advantageously has a first pivot axis having a first distance from the base element and a second pivot axis having a second distance from the base element, wherein the first distance is advantageously greater than the second distance. In this way, a requirement for a particularly compact awning in the closed position is created by simple means. The difference between the first distance and the second distance is preferably greater than the simple thickness of an awning arm, but less than twice, three or four times the thickness of an awning arm.

The base element advantageously effects the transmission of power between the remaining awning and the vehicle. The base member preferably comprises a carrier or is formed by a carrier. The direction of the longitudinal extension of the base element preferably coincides with the direction of the longitudinal extent of the awning arms in the closed state of the awning. The base element is advantageously longer than the longest awning arm. The base element advantageously has "board-shaped" dimensions. One side of the base element - preferably the side facing the awning arms - is advantageously smooth. The opposite side of the base member, which is also referred to as vehicle side in the context of this document, preferably has grooves for attachment to the vehicle. The base element preferably comprises an extruded profile or is formed from an extruded profile, which preferably comprises aluminum. The base member advantageously has a height that is less than one tenth or one fifth of the length of the base member. The base member advantageously has a thickness that is less than one tenth or one fifth of the height of the base member.

The first pivot axis is advantageously arranged behind the direction of travel of the vehicle rear end of the base member. This supernatant is preferably more than half the thickness of an awning arm and less than three times the thickness of an awning arm. In this way, a requirement for a pivoting of a Markisenarms created by a particularly large angle.

The awning arms are advantageously mounted in each case by means of a connecting element, which preferably has at least one fork with two prongs, between which preferably a bearing element is arranged, which defines an axis of rotation with advantage. The awning arms preferably have at their bearing ends in each case a projection, preferably with a bore, which is preferably mounted between the prongs preferably by means of a bore and the prongs preferably cross-bearing element.

Particularly preferably, the arms are mounted in each case by means of a connecting element, which preferably has two facing away from each other and preferably twisted forks with preferably two prongs, which preferably each receive a bearing element between them, which defines each advantageously a joint axis. The tines may have holes into which the bearing element can engage. The bearing element can pass through the tines. The pivot bearing may preferably also be referred to as a pivot joint. The pivot element defining the bearing element is preferably designed as a hinge pin.

The pivot joint of each arm preferably comprises a fork, preferably one of the forks of the connecting element, preferably a hinge pin and preferably a central bearing element. The hinge pin may preferably also be referred to as a bearing pin. Each two arms are preferably pivotally mounted with a common bearing pin.

The tilting joint is preferably formed in each case by a fork of the connecting element, a bearing pin and a projection of the arm. Each awning arm preferably has a projection which is articulated between the prongs of the fork facing the awning arm, preferably by means of the bearing pin.

The belonging to the tilting joint fork of the connecting joint preferably has a stop. This preferably comprises a projection or an edge on the tines. The projection of the awning arm is preferably adjoined by a further projection of the awning arm, which forms a counterstop and together with the stop limits the tiltability of the awning arm downwards when the awning is mounted on the vehicle. The further projection can be designed as a shoulder.

At least one awning arm, preferably all awning arms, have support legs, which are advantageously permanently connected to the awning arms, preferably the free ends of the awning arms. The support legs are preferably hingedly connected to the awning arms. In the closed state of the awning run the Support feet with advantage parallel to the respective arm, below the respective arm.

The awning arms advantageously have a non-circular cross section, preferably an at least approximately rectangular cross section, with a height which is greater than the thickness.

The awning preferably has a - preferably exactly - a central bearing element on which all the awning arms are mounted. The central bearing element advantageously comprises a bearing block. The central bearing element advantageously comprises two plates arranged parallel to one another, which preferably extend one above the other at least approximately horizontally when the awning is mounted on the vehicle. The plates are advantageously at least approximately triangular. The central bearing element is advantageously arranged on the base element, preferably in an end region. The awning arms are therefore preferably mounted on the base element by means of the central bearing element. The central bearing element is preferably fastened in an end region of the base element which is at the rear when the awning is mounted on the vehicle and preferably projects beyond the rearward end of the base element in the direction of travel of the vehicle. The base element preferably distributes the forces, which are preferably introduced via the central bearing element in a relatively small area, to a comparatively larger area for the gentle and robust introduction of the forces into the vehicle, for example by means of a plurality of roof carriers. It is conceivable that the central bearing element itself is rotatably mounted. Preferably, however, the central bearing element is not rotatably mounted. It has been shown that this can be dispensed with in favor of increased robustness. The two plates of the central bearing element are preferably connected to each other by means of a connecting element, such as a connecting plate. The connecting element is preferably connected to the base element, preferably flat, such as screwed.

Fig. 1 shows an embodiment of the invention as a whole with 100 designated awning, partially open awning fabric 11 and with awning arms 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3"', which are pivotally mounted about a pivot axis S1, S2. The arrow r in Fig. 1 symbolizes schematically the opening direction of the awning.

In all embodiments shown, the awning has two mutually parallel pivot axes S1, S2 of the awning arms 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3'" on. All embodiments have a first pivot axis S1, which is spaced in the direction R of the longitudinal extent of the arms in the closed state of the awning by a distance 26 and perpendicular to this direction R by a distance 27 from the second pivot axis S2 ( Fig. 8a ).

Fig. 2 shows the awning in almost completely open condition. Only the first element 15 is not yet erected. All awning arms 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3'" each have a bearing end 3a, on which they are pivotally mounted about one of the two pivot axes S1 or S2 and an end opposite this end free end 3b, to each of which a support leg 16 permanently attached and is mounted pivotally. Fig. 2 also shows that a first element 15 is provided on an awning arm 3 "which is pivotally mounted on this awning arm 3" and can be brought into an upright position from the shown stowed position in which it runs parallel to the longitudinal extent of the awning arm. in which it presses the awning cloth 11 points up and in particular can improve the rain flow.

Fig. 3 shows that the awning cloth has 11 corners and awning arms are arranged with their free ends 3b at these corners and tighten them outwards. In addition, the basic element 1 of the awning 100 designed as a carrier can be seen, with the aid of which the forces acting on the awning can be transmitted to the vehicle. The base member 1 has for this purpose two brackets 2, which are fastened both to the base member 1, as well as to the vehicle.

The Fig. 4 and 5 show a bearing end 3a of awning arm 3, as well as its storage on the remaining awning. It can be seen that the awning arm 3 is pivotally mounted not only about the pivot axis S1, but also about a tilt axis K. For this purpose, a connecting element 6 is provided which two facing away from each other and against each other twisted forks 6a, 6b, each with two Having tines, each receiving a bearing element 13 between them. The tines have holes in which engages the bearing element. Each bearing element 13 defines a hinge axis 12. The pivot joint 4 of each arm 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3'" is through the fork 6b of the connecting element 6, a respective bearing pin 8 and the projection 7 of each arm 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3'" formed. The tilting axis K defining bearing element 13 is formed as a bearing pin 8. Each awning arm 3 has a projection 7 which is articulated by means of the bearing pin 8 between the tines of the fork 6b facing the awning arm. The pivot axis S1 defining bearing element 13 is formed as a hinge pin 14 and, for example, in Fig. 8 shown. The hinge pin 14 passes through the tines.

The Fig. 4 and 5 can also detect a stop AN on the connecting element 6, as well as a formed by a shoulder on the fork 6b arranged in a projection 7 counter stop GA at the bearing end 3a of the awning 3. The stop AN and the counter stop GA cause a blocking of the tiltability of the awning in one direction (if the awning is properly installed downwards) starting from a middle position M (see Fig. 1 ) of the awning arm. The bearing ends 3a of all the awning arms 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3"', as well as arranged on them connecting element 6 are executed in the same way.

The pivot joint 10 of each arm 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3"' is formed by the fork 6a of the connecting element 6, a hinge pin 14 and the central bearing element 5. Each two arms are pivotally mounted with a common bearing pin 14.

Fig. 6 lets the zipper 9 recognize, by means of which the awning fabric 11 is detachably connected to the rest of the awning 100. Fig. 6 shows only small parts of the awning shell 17. Like Fig. 11 shows, the shell 17 has two thickenings VD, VD ', which are each in a complementary Kederschiene KS, KS' of the base member 1 can be introduced. As Fig. 10 shows, the awning fabric 11 is sewn by means of a seam NA in the vicinity of the upper thickening VD with the shell 17. Also Fig. 6 shows this seam NA.

Approximately Fig. 8a shows that the awning has a base member 1 and a first distance a to this base member 1 having second pivot axis S2 and a second distance A to this base member 1 having first pivot axis S1 is provided, wherein the second distance A is greater than the first distance a. especially the Fig. 8 and 8a also show that the first pivot axis S1 in the direction R of the longitudinal extension of the awning arms 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3'" in the closed state of the awning from the rear end 25 of the base member by the distance B is spaced. The Fig. 7 . 8 and 8a show that all arms 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3'" are mounted on exactly one designed as a bearing block central bearing element 5. This points in the Fig. 8a shown plan view of an approximately triangular outline, wherein two corners of the triangle are rounded. It is formed by two plates 5a, 5a ', which are arranged at least substantially horizontally and are arranged in a correct manner when the awning 100 is properly mounted, and which are connected in one piece by a connecting plate 5b. The connecting plate 5b abuts the entire surface of the base member 1 and is screwed thereto. The two rounded corners of the two plates 5a, 5a 'are penetrated by the pivot pins S1, S2 defining the bearing pin 14. In Fig. 8a the most pivotable arm 3 is shown schematically both in the position which it occupies in the closed state of the awning (solid line) and in its open position (dashed line). Such as Fig. 8 shows, the stacked awning arms are not directly superimposed, but spaced from each other. This distance can be realized by a spacer sleeve 14a, 14a '.

Approximately Fig. 9 illustrates that this distance is filled in the closed state of the awning by the folded in this state parallel to the awning arms support legs 16. The base element 1 has a height H that is less than one fifth of the length LB of the base element 1. The base element 1 has a thickness E which is less than one fifth of the height H of the base element 1.

As Fig. 12 shows, the length LA of the shell is greater than the length LB of the base element 1. The same also shows Fig. 14 , This is due to the rearwardly projecting central bearing element 5. This central bearing element 5 allows the pivoting of the awning arm 3 by 270 °, without requiring its own pivoting of the central bearing element 5 relative to the base element 1 is required.

Approximately Fig. 13 shows that the awning fabric 11 in the tensioned state is at least approximately "L" -shaped. Its longest edge 11b extends in the direction of the longitudinal extent of the base element 1. It is an adjacent thereto at least approximately at right angles disposed edge 11c provided.

The in the Fig. 1 . 2 and 9 shown embodiments differ from those in the Fig. 3 . 7 and 8th shown embodiments in that in the latter of the opening of the awning furthest pivoting awning arm 3 is arranged in the lower position and the second-most pivoting awning arm 3 'in the higher position. Unlike the one in Fig. 2 shown embodiment is then created by the greater height of the second-most pivoting awning arm 3 'at an important place under the awning more space, such as to open the tailgate of a camping bus.

The at the opening of the awning at the second widest pivoting awning arm 3 'and the fourth widest pivoting awning arm 3'"are approximately at the in Fig. 8 shown embodiment, arranged at a first height 21, which is higher than the second height 22, in which at the opening of the awning on the third widest pivoting awning arm 3 "and the most pivoting at the opening awning arm 3 (in Fig. 8 hidden) is arranged.

At about in Fig. 3 shown embodiment, unlike that in the Fig. 1 and 2 shown embodiment, also an overlap 11a of the awning cloth 11 is provided, which provides a connection to the roof of the camper.

Fig. 15 shows that the awning arms facing side 23 of the base member 1 is smooth and the vehicle side 24 of the base member 1 has grooves 1b for attachment to the vehicle.

Fig. 15 also shows one of the two brackets 2, the in Fig. 3 already shown in a page view. It can be seen that they engage behind an upper edge 2a with an undercut forming web 1a of the base element 1. The holder 2 has a lower, angled portion, which is the base element 1, weight loads of the awning positively receiving, embraces. As FIG. 18 shows, for the transmission of lateral forces, a fastening means, such as a screw 19, between the holder 2 and base element 1 may be provided.

Fig. 18 shows that the holder 2 with a fastening device 20, connected, may be preferably screwed, the forces on the vehicle or on this arranged roof rack or railing transmits.

Fig. 16 shows another embodiment of a holder 2 '. This has no angled portion, but is secured by means of a engaging in a groove 1b of the base member 1 connecting means, which includes a screw 19 'in the illustrated embodiment. This holder is connected to another embodiment of a fastening device 20 ', preferably screwed.

Fig. 16 shows also that the depth F of the awning in the closed state is smaller than the height G of the awning in the closed state. In the embodiment shown, this depth F is smaller than 2/3 of the housing height G.

The height G of the awning in the closed state is greater than twice the height I of awning arm 3, 3 ', 3 ", 3'" in all embodiments shown. The height G of the awning in the closed state is less than three times the sum of the height I of an awning arm and the height J of a support leg 16 in the folded state (FIG. Fig. 9 and 16 ).

The depth F of the awning in the closed state is less than four times or five times the thickness D of an awning arm in all embodiments shown.

As FIG. 17 shows, bracket 2 "and fastening device 20" may also be integrally formed.
