The invention may relate in particular to a sunshade device or allowing protection against other climatic conditions, and be used on a terrace, in a garden, on the beach, at the edge of a swimming pool and in similar environments.

STATE OF THE ART

An external protection device must ensure its protection function to the people who use it depending on the conditions of the environment in which it is located, conditions such as sunshine or wind, which change over time. The earlier arts, although articulated, do not allow a great modality of protection. WO0078175 discloses a shading device which has at least one horizontally hinged panel. However, this device does not effectively protect against changing weather conditions and is relatively bulky. The document FR2354729 describes a shelter device against the wind and the sun having a top plane of protection. This protection is however limited and by its support element dockable this device only takes into account certain environments.

US5579797 discloses an awning support. However, it can not effectively protect against different climatic conditions at once, and is only intended to be used in certain contexts. It is also complex invoice and use. GB702896 discloses a device for protection against the sun or the wind in the form of a flexible screen consisting of a strip of fabric. However, its protection and resistance are limited, as is its mobility.

An object of the invention is therefore to provide a device for overcoming these disadvantages. An object of the invention is more specifically to provide a device 5 for effective shelter of individuals who use it in a wide range of climatic conditions. An object of the invention is in particular to easily provide continuous protection even if the conditions which must be protected evolve. An object of the invention is to provide a protection device that is easy to handle and use, but also easy to manufacture. Another object of the invention is to take into account the fact that the spaces where the device is to be used are increasingly congested by many objects, accessories, and other outdoor furniture, offering a great deal of space. ease of transport.

FIG. 9 is an overall diagram of an alternative embodiment of the device involving a mechanism for deploying the protection panels. Figures 10 to 13 show various positions in which the device according to a preferred embodiment can be immobilized.

In all the figures, similar elements bear identical reference numerals.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION FIGS. 1 to 7 show a possible embodiment of a protection device according to the invention. Figure 1 is an overall diagram of this embodiment of a protection device according to the invention. The device, which is similar to a sun visor offering protection against other climatic elements such as wind, has a mast 102. The mast has a main direction represented by the axis Z. In the position adopted by the device in Figure 1, which corresponds to the normal position of use, the main direction is substantially vertical.

As will be seen later, the mast 102 preferably has a horizontal width, transverse to the Z axis, of several tens of centimeters, allowing to define in combination with the protective panels 108, 108 ', a clean internal volume to receive various accessories, in the storage position or transport of the device.

The mast is mounted on a seat 104 secured to the lower end of said mast 102. This seat 104 is similar to a weighted horizontal base and contributes to the stability of the device, including its good resistance to the wind. This seat 104 is provided with rotating elements 105 which ensure easy movement of the device. In the present embodiment, these are wheels 105.

In the position of use, the seat 104 rests on the ground by its lower surface to ensure the stability of the device, the carrying wheels 105 being distant from the ground or just flush with the lower surface of the seat 104. However the wheels 105 being provided at the bottom surface of the seat, at the base of the mast 102, it is sufficient to slightly tilt the mast 102 relative to the vertical to bring the entire weight of the device on the wheels only 105 and thus allow easy movement of the device.

The upper end of the mast 102 is extended by an orthogonal wall which may be related in the present embodiment to a sun shield 106 which extends over a plane substantially orthogonal to the main direction of the mast 102. In the figure 1, the sun shield 106 thus extends in a substantially horizontal plane. The sun visor 106 preferably has a width identical to the mast 102. The device also has two protective panels 108 and 108 ', preferably identical and symmetrical with respect to the mast 102. They are of substantially rectangular shape, a length corresponding substantially to the height of the mast 102, the other length substantially corresponding to the length of the sunscreen 106. In the present embodiment they are preferably square, the length of the screen sun 106 then being substantially equal to the height of the mast 102. For example, the protective panels 108 and 108 'may be of dimensions 2m x 2m in the case of a device intended for professional use, or 1.7m x 1 , 7m for a device intended for family use. These dimensions are given for information only and are in no way limiting. The edge of the panel 108, respectively 108 ', adjacent the sun visor 106, defines a principal direction represented by the Y axis, respectively Y', direction substantially orthogonal to the main direction of the mast 102, therefore to the Z axis As a result, in the position adopted by the device in Figure 1, the Y and Y 'axes are substantially horizontal. The protective panels 108 and 108 'are connected to the mast 102 and hinged relative thereto via a respective device each comprising a link arm 110. The means 110 for hinging each protection panel 108 or 108' on the mast 102 are independent of each other. Each panel 108, respectively 108 ', has means for guiding in rotation, with respect to the support mast 102, according to two axes pivots orthogonal to one another, one substantially parallel to the main direction of the mast, ie say along an axis substantially parallel to the Z axis, the other along the Y axis, respectively Y '. The panels 108 and 108 'can be locked in a plurality of possible angular positions around the axes of said pivots.

In addition, the panels 108 and 108 'have guide means in translation relative to the mast 102 along axes substantially parallel to the axis Z. Said translation of each panel can be locked in a plurality of possible positions, according to a system which will be described later. The device can thus protect, respectively by each of its two panels 108, 108 ', two zones independently or protect against two different conditions. For example, a panel 108 or 108 'may be placed in a substantially vertical plane to protect from the wind while the other panel is oriented horizontally or in an intermediate position between vertical and horizontal so as to protect from the sun. The device may optionally be accompanied by additional independent accessories that may be supported by it. This may be for example beach equipment. In a non-limiting embodiment, there are two loungers 112 and 112 ', a double pouf 114, a single pouffe 116 and a coffee table 118. In general, the guiding means in rotation or in translation of the panels, as well as the locking means of these rotations and translations will be described according to non-limiting examples in the following, although variants known to those skilled in the art can also be envisaged. The mast 102 and the sun shield 106 are preferably formed of a one-piece structure. It may be for example a metal monoblock structure, or a synthetic or composite material, comprising two orthogonal wings respectively forming the mast 102 and the sun shield 106, preferably connected by a rounded transition zone. Figure 2 shows the detailed structure of the mast 102 and the seat 104 of the device according to a preferred embodiment. According to this embodiment the structure is composed of a rigid main frame 202 in tubular sections integral with the seat 104, and which surrounds a trim panel referenced 204 for the screen 106 and 212 for the mast 102. The frame 202 combines the mast 102 and sun visor screen 106 previously defined. Thus in the mast portion, the frame 202 comprises two sections of profiles 2020, 2021 parallel to each other whose lower ends are integral with the seat 104, and in the sun screen portion 106, the frame comprises two other sections of sections 2022, 2023 parallel to each other and orthogonal to sections 2020, 2021 they extend respectively. The sections 2022 and 2023 are interconnected at their end opposite the mast by a connecting section 2024 with a rounded transition and likewise the horizontal sections 2022 and 2023 are respectively connected to the vertical sections 2020 and 2021 by rounded transitions 2025 , 2026. The covering panel 204, 212 may be formed of a rigid panel, for example of wood, of metal or of synthetic or composite material, or of a fabric stretched and fixed by any appropriate means on the frame 202. An upper portion 206 of the sections 2020 and 2021 of the tubular section, of the main frame 202 which extends in the main direction of the mast is perforated in the form of rectilinear windows 2061, 2062 which open on both sides on flanks. opposite sections sections 2020 and 2021 (see Figure 5). This perforated profile 206 allows the panels 108, 108 'to move independently in translation of an axis substantially parallel to the main axis of the mast 102. The perforated profile 206 also allows the locking of said translations independently of one another by the tightening of a system at the link arm 110. By way of example, the rectilinear windows 2061 and 2062 typically extend over a height of about one third of the height of the mast 102, on the upper half of this one. Clamping can be obtained by means of a handle 414 shown in Figures 4 and 5 described below, or by any other means known to those skilled in the art.

The profiles constituting the frame 202 may be made for example of synthetic materials or metal (for example titanium, aluminum or a metal alloy) or any other preferably lightweight material, although robust. The seat 104 consists of a ballasted base 216 and rotary members 105, for example wheels. The device is also provided with a handling arm 208 secured to the main structure 202 of the mast 102, adapted to facilitate the transport of the device on the rotating elements 105 of the seat 104, on a terrace as on a beach. In a manner comparable to the mast 102 and the sunscreen 106, the panels 108, 108 'may be formed of a one-piece structure in the form of rigid panels, for example metal, or of synthetic or composite material. Figure 3 shows, in partial view, the detailed structure of protective panels 108 and 108 'according to a preferred embodiment. According to this embodiment each panel 108 or 108 'may consist of a rigid peripheral frame 306 made for example of synthetic materials or metal (for example titanium, aluminum or a metal alloy) or any other material preferably light but strong. A screen fabric or a flexible or rigid sheet 304 is held in position by the peripheral frame 306 and a seal 302 which is fixed, for example screwed or glued, to the peripheral frame 306. The fabric 304 covers the entire surface delimited by the frame 306. The surface of such panels shown in Figure 3 is constant. Alternatively, as illustrated in FIG. 9, each protection panel 108 108 'may be formed of a deployable structure of variable area. Various embodiments known per se to those skilled in the art can be retained for this purpose. According to the non-limiting embodiment illustrated in FIG. 9, each panel 108, 108 'can thus comprise two bars 902, 903 parallel to each other, one 902 articulated on the mast 102 and the other 903 connected to the first by a deployment mechanism 904, for example at least two sets of arms 9040, 9041 respectively hinged on one of the bars 902, 903 and hinged together as seen in Figure 9. A fabric 304 is connected to one bars and wound on a tube mounted to rotate with booster wound position on the other bar. Such a structure known to those skilled in the art can extend the screen fabric 304 according to a desired surface, by controlling the inclination of the deployment arms 9040, 9041. When the arms are parallel to the bar 903 or at least substantially parallel to the bar 903, the bars 902, 903 are close or contiguous and the fabric 304 is wound on the tube. When the relative inclination of the arms 9040, 9041 increases, the bars 902, 903 are progressively separated and the fabric 304 is deployed. The articulation means of each connecting arm 110 on the one hand on a panel 108, 108 'and on the other hand on the mast 102, can be the subject of many embodiments. We will now describe a non-limiting embodiment of such connecting means illustrated in the accompanying figures, particularly in Figures 3 and 4 which show the detailed structure of the rotating guide means 108 of the panel according to a preferred embodiment but not A similar structure provides the means for rotating the panel 108 '. According to the embodiment illustrated in Figures 3 and 4, each panel 108 or 108 'is connected to the respective link arm 110 by an assembly comprising a rotation shaft 310, for example metallic, of circular section, and extended on each side by a frame 308, for example metal, integral with the peripheral frame 306, which allows the latter to rotate. To do this, the frame comprises a T-section and the frame has a complementary recess adapted to receive said profile.

In a preferred embodiment, the peripheral frame 306 comprises two complementary parts 311 and 312 whose interlocking makes it possible to hold the reinforcements 308. In a preferred embodiment, the upper sections 311 cover the entire circumference of the peripheral frame 306 and , in order not to weigh down the structure, the lower sections 312 preferably only partially complement the upper profiles 311 of the frame 306. The lower sections may for example cover only the T-section of the frame 308. The rotation shaft 310 extends along an edge of the panel 108, 108 ', at an angle thereof.

The connecting arm 110, for example metal or synthetic material or composite, consists of a console 1102 triangular general outline. One end of the console 1102 is integral with a tube 1104, for example metal, whose inner diameter is complementary to the outer diameter of the shaft 310, with the clearance necessary for a rotation. The tube 1104 is engaged on the shaft 310 to allow the pivot connection of the Y axis with the rotation shaft 310 of the protection panel 108. The rotation shaft 310 oriented along the Y axis thus passes through the metal tube 1104 of the arm 110. If necessary the reverse arrangement can be provided, that is to say that one can provide a cylindrical shaft of rotation oriented along the Y axis on the console 1102 and a complementary tube on the panel 108 , 108 '. As a variant, the above-mentioned articulation means around the Y axis may be formed of conventional hinges. As previously mentioned, it is preferable to provide means for selectively blocking each panel 108, 108 'according to a plurality of relative positions chosen relative to the console 1102 and therefore to the mast 102, as to the angular orientation about the Y axis. Such rotational locking means 15 may be the subject of many embodiments. It may be means allowing a continuous adjustment in position around the Y axis, for example based on eccentric locking means of the type retained in FIGS. 4 and 5 to ensure translation locking on the mast 102. According to the particular and nonlimiting embodiment illustrated in FIG. 4, the selective locking means comprise a key 402 engaged radially on the tube 1104 and capable of being displaced between a locking position in which the key 402 is engaged selectively. in a housing or notch selected from a plurality of housings or notches angularly distributed on the shaft 310, and a release position in which the key 402 is not engaged with the housing or notches mentioned above. The key 402 is permanently biased towards the locking position by elastic means integrated with the tube 1104. The key 402 is connected to a pull tab 404 and actuated by it manually for temporary holding in the open or release position. This key 402 allows the locking of the pivot axis Y and therefore the panel 108 at a certain angle chosen. The edge of the console 1102 opposite the aforementioned end bearing the tube 1104, is provided with hinges 406 or equivalent means. These hinges 406 allow the connection of the console 1102 on the mast 102, in a pivot connection axis substantially parallel to the Z axis. The hinges 406 can be subject to many embodiments. According to the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 4, the hinges 406 comprise two series of sleeves 4061 and 4062 respectively connected to the console 1102 and to the mast 102. The sleeves 4061 and 4062 are coaxial after mounting and linked to rotation thanks to a trunnion. 410 engaged in said sleeves. More precisely the sleeves 4062 of the hinges 406 placed on the side of the mast 102 are carried by a metal plate 408 slidable along the mast 102 and associated with means for a vertical translation guide on the mast 102 and a selective locking position . It is also preferably provided, as previously mentioned, means for selectively blocking the console 1102 in a plurality of relative positions chosen relative to the mast 102, as to the angular orientation around the Z axis. Such rotational locking means can be the subject of many embodiments. It may be means allowing a continuous adjustment in position around the Z axis, for example based on eccentric locking means of the type retained in FIGS. 4 and 5 for locking in translation on the mast 102.

According to the particular and nonlimiting embodiment illustrated in FIG. 5, the selective locking means according to the rotation Z comprise a key 502 carried by the console 1102 and capable of being displaced between a locking position in which the key 502 is selectively engaged in a housing or a notch selected from a plurality of housings or notches angularly distributed on a sleeve 4062, and a release position in which the key 502 is not engaged with the housing or notches mentioned above. The key 502 is permanently biased towards the locking position by resilient means referenced 5020 in FIG. 5. The key 502 is actuated manually and selectively against the bias exerted by the elastic means 5020 by any appropriate means. for example by a button 5022 articulated on the console 110.

By way of nonlimiting example, it can be provided 4 possible positions, separated for example by 30 ° for the articulation about the Z axis. The plate 408 which carries the sleeves 4062 is guided in vertical translation along a flank of the mast 102. According to the particular and nonlimiting embodiment illustrated in the accompanying figures, the plate 408 is connected to at least one rod 4080 which passes through the section sections 2020, 2021 at the windows 2061 and 2062. L end of the rod 4080 which emerges on the side of the profiles 2020, 2021 opposite the plate 408 is associated with an eccentric clamping lever 414 which allows the blocking of the degree of freedom in translation of the panel 108. Such a locking lever to eccentric 414 is known per se to those skilled in the art. It will not be described in detail later. Essentially the handle is rotatably mounted on the end of the rod 4080 between a blocking position shown in solid lines in FIG. 4 and a release position shown in broken lines in FIG. 4. The portion of the handle 414 interposed between the profiles 2020, 2021 and the axis of articulation of the lever 414 on the rod 4080 is greater in the locking position in the release position, because of the eccentric shape of the end of the joystick 414. Figure 5 is a detailed diagram of the guide means according to the axis pivot parallel to the main direction of the mast 102 according to the preferred embodiment of the invention. By way of nonlimiting example, different positions separated by 30 ° are shown at 412. The console 1102 is pivotally connected relative to the mast 102 by the system of hinges 406, 408 and 410. The locking means of this rotation are consisting of the cleat or key 502 actuated by the push button 5022 present on the console 1102. Figures 6 and 7 show two additional independent accessory assemblies according to a particular embodiment of the invention. FIG. 6 shows the assembly of a chaise longue 112 or 112 'to the mast 102. The chaise longue 112 or 112' has a covering 602 which surrounds an armature 604. The trim 602 and the armature 604 are interrupted in two. locations, creating two holes in the chaise longue 112 or 112 'which allow the attachment of the structure to the mast 102 by a system of hooks 210. Figure 7 shows the assembly of a pouffe 114 or 116 or a coffee table 118 to a chaise longue 112 or 112 '.

An accessory 112, 112 ', 114, 116 or 118 has a covering 7002 which surrounds a frame 7004. Armature 7004 and casing 7002 are interrupted in one and the same place, on either side of which are arranged fittings 706 integral with the end of frame 7004 and cladding 7002 and extending perpendicular thereto. Each fitting 706 has at its non-integral end of the armature 7004 and the casing 7002 a perpendicular flange 707 oriented towards the interrupted end of the armature. Another accessory 112, 112 ', 114, 116 or 118 has a covering 702 which surrounds an armature 704. Armature 704 and trim 702 are interrupted in one and the same place, so that the interruption is of a size substantially equal to that of the frame 7004 and the covering 7002 previously described. Each fitting 706 fits through its perpendicular rim 707 to the covering 702 at the interruption thereof., The armature 704 is cut short at the nesting zone to be extended by a rabbet 708 thinner which is directly in contact with the fitting 706 and which thus protects the covering 702. Figure 8 is an overall diagram of the device according to a particular and non-limiting embodiment of the invention, in a position 800 particularly adapted to the transport of the device. The panels 108 and 108 'can be placed symmetrically so that an edge of the panel 108, respectively 108', that defining the Y axis, respectively Y ', disposed in a direction substantially orthogonal to the main axis of the mast 102 or in contact with one side of the sun visor 106, preferably of substantially equal length, and that another edge of the panel 108, respectively 108 ', is disposed substantially parallel to the main direction of the mast 102, in contact with the mast 102. The two panels 108 and 108 'are then arranged opposite each other, their faces defining two substantially parallel planes. In this position 800, the two panels 108 and 108 'are spaced a distance equal to the width of the sun visor 106. The assembly comprising the panels 108 and 108', the mat 102, the seat 104 and the pare sun 106 thus defines a certain internal space 802. With the aid of the systems described in FIGS. 6 and 7, the two chaise loungers 112 and 112 ', the double pouf 114, the single pouffe 116 and the coffee table 118 can be hung on device, on the hooks 210 provided on the mast 102, so that they are in the internal space 802 previously defined. In the present embodiment, the single pouffe 116 and the coffee table 118 are placed next to each other, both attached to the chaise longue 112. Thus in the transport position 800 can the device store independent accessories, which limits the size of the surrounding area. This transport position 800 allows easy movement of the device and accessories, because it can be pulled by the handling arm 208, the wheels 105 ensuring the movement relative to the ground. Those skilled in the art will understand that from this transport or storage position in which the two panels 108, 108 'are arranged parallel to each other and adjacent to the mast 102 and the sun visor 106, each of the panels 108, 108 can be moved individually on the one hand in translation along the mast and on the other hand to pivot about the Y and Z pivoting axes. As illustrated in FIGS. 10 to 13, each of the panels 108, 108 'can thus take a multitude of possible positions while being immobilized in the chosen position.
