Description:
MOBILE AWNING FOR VEHICLES

The subject of the invention is a mobile awning for vehicles making possible to stretch above, or around a protecting net quickly and easily to protect the vehicle from the adverse effects of sleet, rain, frost and sunshine, as well as it is always available in the trunk of the vehicle packed as a light packet of small dimension allowing the driver of the vehicle to apply it any time.

It is a frequent problem during outdoors parking of vehicles, that weather conditions are adverse, so using this device it is easy to protect them. In hot weather the sunshine, in cold weather ice, hail can seriously damage vehicles. The owners of vehicles are not always able to keep their vehicle in a garage, or in a covered space, not even when it is evident, that their vehicle is at risk, for example in case of a forecast of hail. The owners of vehicles try using simple, inexpensive methods of covering against adverse weather condition, for example covering with plastic film, textile or simple cardboard. Various simple coverings that can be pulled onto vechicles, or mobile garages to be folded onto the vehicle have been available for long in commerce.

The HU 170 733 patent description makes known a state of the art folding garage for storing vehicles, which solution is a portable device, or it can be fixed to the ground in a closed cabinet, it is of a finish sank into the ground with walkable surface. The supporting bars of the framework according to the solution are fixed to supporting hinges rotatable on pivots embedded in supporting bases on two sides, and provided at least two pivoted links, to which additional pivoted links can be joined carrying the covering-protecting material making possible the changing of the garage space, respectively the extension of the covering in conformity with the size of the vehicle by joining the connecting extension with pivots.

The HU 154 206 patent description makes known an universal garage and camping tent, replacing both the vehicle cover and the tent, and it can be delivered in folded state in the luggage space of the vehicle. The universal garage has telescopic supporting bars, bearing to the socket housing the jack of the vehicle, but also can be leant against the ground, the ledger connecting the supporting bars, a horizontal ridge-pole leaning against the drain line and also fixable to it, at least one pair of ridge poles, furthermore rigging connecting the ridge-pole and the track rods to the bumper of the vehicle or to the tent-pegs, and a stiffener element keeping the ridge-racks together with the ridge poles in cross direction.

The DE 4038836 patent application published on 11. 06. 1992 makes known an arrangement for protecting the windows of a parked car against the effects of the weather. It has a housing mountable on the vehicle roof with an opening through which a protective foil can be drawn. The foil is led from a roller round a guide to an openin such that the distance between the roller and the guide is half as great as the length of the extended part of the foil. The US 5890525 patent description makes known an inflatable car cover comprising a covering having a plurality of channel supported air pockets to fit over an exterior finish of a car. A plurality of restraint straps are provided. Each restraint strap has a channel supported air pocket fluidly attached at a first end to a first lower edge of the covering. A component is for inflating all of the channel supported air pockets within the covering and all of the channel supported air pockets in the restraint straps. A structure is for attaching a second end of each restraint strap to an opposite second lower edge of the covering under the car, to hold the covering in place upon the exterior finish of the car. This will protect the exterior finish of the car from the elements, such as damaged caused by rain, sun and leaves, as well as protection from falling debris, such as acorns, hail, branches and stones.

The drawing shows the frame structure 4 of the protectmg structure 1. The figure shows the frame structure 4 with the connecting elements 5,35 with the frame bars 10,12, 47 fixed in them, as well as the threaded shanks 18, the connecting elements 6,36 with the frame bars 10 fixed in them, with the threaded shanks 18 and the bars 16 and the other ends of said bars 16 are fixed into the tightening rack 42. It can be well seen in the figure, that the tightening rack 42 is strained to the chassis 32 of the vehicle 31, fixing by this solution the whole frame structure 4 to the vehicle 31.

In Fig 1 furthermore can be seen the connecting elements 7,37 with the frame bars 13 and bars 15, as well as with the threaded shanks 18, and the connecting elements 8,38 with the frame bars 11, bars 15, threaded shanks 18 and the bars 16, and the other ends of said bars 16 are fixed into the tightening rack 42. It can be well seen in the drawing, that the tightening rack 42 is strained to the bottom of the vehicle 31 so fixing it. The connecting elements 9,39 can be seen with the frame bars 11,12,47 and threaded shanks 18 fixed in them.

At the shaping of the frame structure 4 the frame bars 10 and 12, the bars 15 with the frame bars 13, the frame bars 11, 12, the frame bars 12,14 are fixed with the help of the cross stiffeners 17 by screwing 20. The vertical frame bars 12,13 are connected in pairs with the frame bars 14 by screwing 20. Furthermore the frame bars 12 are connected to the frame bars 13, frame bars 44,45 in such a way, that the two frame bars 44 are connected as well with the frame bar 46 in the middle of the frame bars 44.

Fig 2 shows the„A" intersection detail of the frame structure of the protecting structure according to the invention shown in Fig 1.

The Fig shows the cross stiffener 17 connecting the frame bars 10 and 12 and in given case are fixed to each other by screwing 20 and stiffening also the whole frame structure 4.

The proper positioning to an elevation level of the connecting element 5 can be ensured by the fixing of the threaded shank 18 into the connecting element 5. The positioning on one level of all the connecting elements 35,6,36,7,37,8,38,9,39 applied in the frame structure 4 takes place in the same way ensuring that all the connecting elements 5,35,6,36,7,37,8,38,9,39 are on the same level.

Fig 3 shows the„B" intersection detail of the frame structure of the protecting structure according to the invention shown in Fig 1.

The Fig shows the connecting element 6 and the frame bar 10 placed in the openining 28 formed in the connecting element 6, the threaded shank 18 fixed into the opening 29 provided with screw nut 19 by screwing, as well as the threaded shank 16 fixed into the opening 30 provided with screw nut 19 by screwing. The other end of the threaded shank 16 is led through the opening 26 formed in the upper element 22 of the tightening rack 42 in such a way, that it is positioned in conformity with the two screw nuts 19 placed on the threaded shank 16 fitting to the side of the tightening rack 42.

Fig 4 shows the„C" intersection detail of the frame structure of the protecting structure according to the invention shown in Fig 1.

The Fig shows the connecting element 7 can be seen in the drawing, as well as the frame bar 13 placed into the opening 28 formed in the connecting element 7, the threaded shank 18 fixed by screwing into the opening 29 provided with screw nut 19, as well as the bar 15 placed into the opening 30. As it can be well seen in the drawing, this case the bar 15 in the opening 30 was positioned in such a way, that a pivot 40 is led through the bore 41 formed in the connecting element 7 and through the bore also formed in the bar 15. The Fig shows the cross stiffener 17 connecting the frame bar 13 and the bar 15 and by this stiffening the whole frame structure 4 can be seen in the drawing. The fixing takes place by screwing 20. The fixing can also take place with pivots, or other known solution as well.

The connecting element 8 and the bar 15 placed into the opening 28 formed in the connecting element 8 can be furthermore seen in Fig 4, and the frame bar 11 placed into the other opening 28, and the threaded shank 16 fixed into the opening 29 provided with screw nut 19, as well as the threaded shank 16 fixed into the opening 30 provided with screw nut 19. The other end of the threaded shank 16 is led through the opening 26 formed in the upper element 22 of the tightening rack 42 in such a way, that it is positioned in conformity with the two screw nuts 19 placed on the threaded shank 16 fitting to the side of the tightening rack 42.

Fig 5 shows a possible embodiment of the tightening rack 42 applied in the frame structure of the protecting structure according to the invention in section.

The upper element 22 of the tightening rack 42 with the opening 26, width size S and height size M can be seen in the drawing, there is a notch 27 on the upper part suitable for housing the flexible element 23. The screw shank 25 is fixed into the lower part 25 of the upper element 22. It can be well seen in the drawing, that the screw shank 25 of the upper element 22 is screwed into the opening 24 of the lower element 21 of S width size and L height size of the tightening rack 42 through the screw nut 19 built into the lower element 21, can be well seen in the figure.

It can be well seen in Fig 5, that the size of the R gap distance between the lower element 21 and the upper element 22 depends on the extent of the screwing of the screw shank 25 into the lower element 21. It can be ensured with the help of this solution, that the solution according to the invention can be applied in case of different level of chassis vehicles. The given height size of the tightening rack 42 adds up from M+ L + R + T total, in which case the given T height size of the flexible element 23 can change under the effect of pressure to a lesser extent within a range, conforming with the flexibility of the material chosen, the height size of the tightening rack 42 can be optionally ensured within a range by changing the R gap distance size.

When forming the flexible element 23 we have to endeavour to form a height size as little as possible, as during use the flexible element 23 can easily shift resulting from a lateral force while straining the tightening rack 42 below the chassis 32 of the vehicle 31.

Fig 6 shows another possible embodiment of the tightening rack 43 applied in the frame structure of the protecting structure according to the invention in section.

The drawing shows the upper element 22 of the tightening rack 43 with opening 26, S width size and Z height size, on the upper part of which a groove 48 with K depth size and P width size is formed. The screw shank 25 is fixed into the lower part of the upper element 22. It can be well seen in the figure, that the screw shank 25 of the upper element 22 is screwed into the opening 24 of the lower element 21 of S width size and L height size of the tightening rack 42 throught the screw nut 19 built into the lower element 21. It can be well seen in Fig 6, that the size of the R gap distance between the lower element 21 and the upper element 22 depends on the fact, to what extent the screw shank 25 is screwed to the lower element 21. With the help of this solution it can be ensured, that the solution according to the invention can be used in case of vehicles with different height chassis level. The given height size of the tightening rack 43 adds up from Z+ L + R sizes, so the height size can be fixed optionally within a range by changing the R width size.

Fig 7 shows the tightening rack 43 shown in Fig 6 in perspective.

The drawing shows the lower element 21 and upper element 22 of the tightening rack 43 and the groove 48 of P width size, formed in the upper element 22.

Fig 8 shows the protecting structure according to the invention with the upper protecting net fixed to the frame structure.

The figure shows the protecting structure 1 with the frame structure 4 and the upper protecting net 2 fixed on the frame structure 4. The upper protecting net 2 is fixed onto the frame structure 4 in such a way, that the strain pole for net 33 drawn into the splicing | part 34 of the upper protecting net 2 which is for example is fixed to the frame structure ; 4 with a rubber cord, then the upper protecting net 2 is guided above the frame bars 14 to the other side of the frame structure 4, where it is fixed similarly with the help of the I strain pole for net 33 drawn into the splicing part 34. In case of demand the two ends of the strain pole for net 33 can be fixed to the lower one-third of the frame bars 12 by screwing 20.

The Fig 9 shows the protecting structure according to the invention with the upper protecting net 2 and the lateral protecting nets 3 fixed to the frame structure 4.

The figure shows the protecting structure 1 with the frame structure 4 and the upper protecting net 2 fixed on the frame structure 4, as well as the lateral protecting nets 3. The upper protecting net 2 is fixed to the frame structure 4 in such a way, that the strain pole for net 33 drawn into the splicing part 34 of the upper protecting net 2 which is for example fixed to the frame structure 4 with a rubber cord, then the upper protecting net 2 is guided above the frame bars 14 to the other side of the frame structure 4, where it is , fixed similarly with the help of the strain pole for net 33 drawn into the splicing part 34. , The lateral protecting nets 3 are fixed in given case to the frame bars 12,13 as well as to the upper protecting net 2 by binding.

In case of a preferable concrete embodiment of the solution according to the invention as a first step of assembling the frame structure 4 of the protecting structure 1, the threaded shanks 16 are guided through the openings 26 formed in the upper elements 22 of the four pieces of tightening racks 42, and the screw nuts 19 are screwed to them on two sides of the tightening racks 42 each. Following this, the tightening racks 42 are placed below the lifting points of the chassis 32 of the vehicle 31 and by screwing of the lower elements 21 of the tightening racks 42, with the help of the flexible elements 23, the tightening racks 42 are strained between the ground and the chassis 32, in such a way that they can not be shifted, even if moved with considerable force by hand. In case the tightening rack 43 is applied, then we act as described above, with the difference, that this time the tightening rack 43 has to be fitted to the plate formed on the chassis 32 of the vehicle 31 in such a way, that the plate is slid into the groove 48 of the tightening rack 43 and similarly with the case of tightening rack 42, the tightening rack 43 is strained between the chassis 32 and the ground.

Following this, the corresponding connecting elements 6,36,8,38 are joined the other ends of the threaded shanks 16 in such a way, that the threaded shanks 16 are screwed into the openings 30 provided with screw nut 19 formed in the connecting elements 6,36,8,38. The above steps are carried out in such a way, that the location of the I connecting elements 6,36,8,38 is positioned in the vehicle 31 with the help of the screw nuts 19 placed in the connecting elements 6,36,8,38 placed on the threaded shank 16, ensuring by this, that the assembled frame structure 4 should not be too close, however not too far from the chassis of the vehicle 31. Beside this fixing, the threaded shanks 18 are guided and screwed into the openings 29 provided with screw nut 19 formed in the connecting elements 6,36,8,38 and by screwing the threaded shanks 18, the height positioning of the connecting elements 6,36,8,38 takes place.

In case of the connecting elements 5,35,6,36,7,37,8,38, the adjustability of the threaded shanks 18 can prevent the difference of height resulting from the uneven ground, so with the help of the threaded shanks 18 the connecting elements 5,35,6,36,7,37,8,38 can be arranged on the same level.

Following this, the frame bars 10 are placed into the openings 28 of the connecting elements 6,36 in a form-closing way, as well as also in a form-closing way the bars 15 ' and the frame bars II are placed into the openings 28 of the connecting elements 8,38. ; The other ends of the bars 15 are guided through the openings 30 of the already positioned connecting elements 7,37 with the threaded shank 18 as described above, positioning their location in conformity with the connecting elements 8,38. The other ends of the frame bars 11 are guided through the openings 28 of the connecting elements 9,39, already positioned to the threaded shank 18, the other ends of the frame bars 10 are fixed into the a connecting elements 5,35, already positioned with the threaded shank 18 in a form -closing way.

Following this the frame bars 12, 47 are placed into the openings 28 of the connecting elements 5,35,9,39, and the frame bar 13 is placed into the openings 28 of the connecting elements 7,37 in a form-closing way. In order to ensure the stiffening of the frame structure 4 the frame bars 10,12, and the bar 15, as well as the frame bar 13 and frame bars 11,12 are fixed together with the cross stiffeners 17 by screwing 20.

The frame bars 12 and the upper ends of the frame bars 13 are connected with the frame bars 14 by screwing 20, then the upper ends of the frame bar 12, 13 are connected with the frame bars 44, 45 also by screwing 20 in such a way, that two of the frame bars 44 are connected in the middle with the frame bar 46 in the known way. Afterwards the frame bars 12, 14 and 13, 14 are provided also with cross stiffeners 17. By this last step the frame structure 4 of the protecting structure 1 has been assembled. The upper protecting net 2 is placed on the assembled frame structure 4 in such a way, that the strain pole for net 33 is drawn into the splicing part 34 of the upper protecting net 2, then the strain pole for net 33 is fixed for example by screwing 20 to the lower one-third part of the frame bars 12 at the one end of the frame structure 4. Then similarly, the upper protecting net 2 is guided above the frame bars 14 on the other side of the frame structure 4 and fixed to the frame bars 12 with the help of the strain pole for net 33 drawn into the splicing part 34. Then the lateral protecting nets 3 are fixed onto the frame structure 4. The lateral protecting nets 3 are fixed to the vertical frame bars 12, 13, as well as to the upper protecting net 2 in given case by binding. To ensure this, it is preferable to form eyelets at the edges of the upper protecting net 2, and at the edges of the lateral protecting net 3, and with the help of a ligament guided through the eyelets the two materials can be easily fixed to each other.

When assembling the protecting structure 1 according to the invention the fixing of the frame bars 10,11,12,13,47 into the connecting elements 5,35, 6, 36, 7, 37, 8, 38, 9, 39 can take place in such a way, that the sizes of the openings 28, 30 formed in the connecting elements and the sizes of the frame bars 10, 11, 12, 13, 47 are chosen in such a way, that the frame bars 10, 11, 12, 13, 47 fit into the openings 28, 30 in a form- closing way, that is the placing in and drawing out can take place under a small force impact, by this ensuring, that they can not easily slip from there. The fixing of the frame bars 10, 11, 12, 13, 47 into the connecting elements 5,35, 6, 36, 7, 37, 8, 38, 9, 39 can take place with the help of pivots 40 as well, as shown in Fig 4, but it can take place by screwing, or any other fastening method as well.

The material of the upper protecting net 2 and the lateral protecting net 3 is a latticed welded UV resistant plastic net of 10x10 mm diamond-shaped net, or other plastic based film, textile, impregnated textile, tent cloth.

The connecting element 5,6,7,8,35,36,37,38 is in given case a cube of 10 cm edge, the material of which is primarily a material of low density, such as: wood, plastic, but it can be made of metal, aluminium, etc.

The size of the openings 28 must be chosen in such a way that the frame bars 10, 12 put into them can be tight enough to keep the frame bars 10, 12.

The lower element 21 and the upper element 22 of the tightening rack 42 is in given case a cylindrical body of eight cm diameter. The S width size of the lower element 21 of the tightening rack 42 is: 6-10 cm, preferably 7 cm, L height size is 6-10 cm, preferably seven cm. The M height size of the upper element 22 is 5-8 cm, preferably 7 cm, the material is: primarily materials of low density, like: wood, plastic, but it can be made of metal, aluminium, etc.

The flexible material of the tightening rack 42 is: rubber, flexible plastic, or any other flexible material. The material of the tightening rack 43 is: primarily materials of low density, like: wood, plastic, but it can be also made of metal, aluminium, etc. It is preferable to provide the surface of the vehicle 31 fitting to the chassis 32 and the inside surface of the groove with flexible covering in order to keep the chassis 32 of the vehicle 31 damage-free.

The material of the frame bars 10,11,12,13,14,44,45,46, the bar 15 and the cross stiffener 17 forming the elements of the frame structure 4 is preferably steel, aluminium tubes, or plastic tubes, or glass-fibre reinforced plastic, which can be produced from one piece of tube in the suitable length as well. However in order to be able to fold the frame structure 4 into a small parcel, it can be made preferably of pieces of tubes of 60-80 cm, which can be pushed into each other, nevertheless it must be ensured, that it is not possible to fully pull them out, but the proper frame bar length can be formed with them, or they can be produced from smaller pieces of tubes, which can be connected with each other.

The material of the threaded shank 16, 18 is steel.

In case of applying the protecting structure 1 according to the invention, if the protecting structure 1 is used continously in one place, it offers a possibility to move in and out from below the protecting structure 1 with the vehicle 31, this case the tightening rack 42, 43 together with the threaded shank 16 belonging to it can be- temporarily, for the period of moving out and in,- fixed to the external sides of the connecting elements 6,16,8,18, and this case the fixing to the ground must be made sure, eg. the threaded shanks 16 are fixed to the ground with the help of pegs.

In case of the solution according to the invention certain frame bars can be loosely connected with the help of rubber, spring element, or other element in such a way, that assembly can be made easier and fitting together is completely straightforward. Accordingly for example the frame bar 14 is placed between the two frame bars 12, and the frame bar 14 comes between the two frame bars 13, as well the frame bars 44 and 45 get into loose connection.

The advantage of the solution according to the invention is, that it protects the vehicle kept in an optional place with the help of a simple and easily assembled protecting structure from adverse weather conditions. The light weight and small dimension foldability of the protecting structure makes possible to store it in the luggage space of the vehicle, making possible, that it is available in every case the vehicle moves.

An additional advantage of the solution is, that by dismantling the lateral net, or leaving it out, it is possible to get in and out of the vehicle even when the protecting structure is fixed. A further advantage is, that as the protecting nets of the protecting structure are at suitable distance from the chassis of the vehicle, the protecting net itself can not damage the paintwork of the vehicle, but for example it also protects the paintwork from hail, or lumpy elements, crops.
