The present invention relates to an angle variable multi-stage sunshade device, and more particularly, to an angle variable multi-stage sunshade device in which sunshades are installed in multiple stages and can be deployed at a desired angle and direction.
In general, sunshade devices such as curtains, blinds, and roll screens are installed on windows or doorways of buildings to control light coming into the room from the outside.
These sunshade devices have not only the above-mentioned purpose, but also the purpose of blocking external gaze or blocking cold and heat.
They also aim to enhance the aesthetics of the interior by changing the hard and cold feeling of walls or glass to soft and warm.
On the other hand, according to the opening and closing operation, the sunshade devices are divided into a type that opens and closes horizontally and a type that opens and closes vertically.
But that's just a general distinction. In reality, a screen or blind such as roll blind, vertical blind, screen blind, roman shade and combi screen is pulled in one direction by a driving wire such as a ball chain connected to a sprocket installed on one side of the bracket so that a sunshade descends as it unwinds from the winding bar, which is fixed at a certain position to block the light coming through the window.
However, the aforementioned various blinds contain a risk that children may trip over the driving wire provided to operate the sunshade vertically or horizontally, or even suffocate due to their neck being wound around the driving wire.
In fact, in the United States recently, children often choked on the driving wire to suffocation or death, resulting in recalls of 50 million previously released blind products.
In order to respond to this problem, Korea recently announced the revision of the enforcement rules of the “Quality Management and Industrial Product Safety Management Act” to designate the blind as a safety management item, and plans to prepare the safety standards for the driving wire accordingly.
Meanwhile, when the sunshade is oscillated by an indoor air blower or air flowing in from the outside while the window frame is open, a weight member provided, at the bottom of the sunshade, to spread the sunshade in the gravitational direction collides with the window frame, generating noise and being unable to effectively block light coming from the outside.
Moreover, when the weight member collides with an object such as furniture adjacent to the window frame, it may be damaged.
The sunshade device has the effect of blocking direct sunlight or rainwater on the entrance or wall of a building, making it easier to go and out, or in the case of a store, it not only protects the products placed on it but also expands the area of the store.
Such a sunshade device is usually used to fix a sunshade, but in the case of a fixed configuration, the sunshade spread outward may collide with a vehicle or be damaged if there is a lot of wind, snow, or rain.
For this reason, many recent devices adopt a configuration in which the rotating shaft around which the sunshade is wound is installed on the wall of the building and a link device that moves the end of the sunshade to spread the sunshade. However, its foldable arm that spreads the sunshade has a limit in length, so if it is stretched to an excessive length, it will be bent, making it impossible to install a wide sunshade. Moreover, since the sunshade is supported by the arms installed symmetrically on both sides, the arm may be damaged due to weak resistance to strong winds, heavy snow, and heavy rain.
For example, Patent Document 1 below discloses a “sunshade device equipped with a safety device”.
A sunshade device equipped with a safety device according to Patent Document 1 includes: a winding bar around which a sunshade is wound so as to move up and down while rotating, and of which one end is connected to a rotational driving unit equipped with a first sprocket; a driving wire composed of a ball chain, of which the upper end is wound and coupled to the outer periphery of the first sprocket, and which is rotationally towed to provide rotational force to the winding bar; a 2nd sprocket unit in which the lower end of the driving wire is wound and coupled to the outer periphery thereof; and a fixed case unit that rotatably supports the 2nd sprocket and is fixed to an external structure.
The fixed case unit includes: a front case in which multiple coupling step grooves are formed along the edge; a rear case provided with coupling protrusions protruding at a position opposite to the coupling step grooves and elastically inserted into the coupling step grooves and fixed thereto; a through coupling part that passes through the 2nd sprocket unit and is coupled to the front case and the rear case to support rotation; and a safety bracket connected to the front case and fixed to the external structure at a position corresponding to the length of the driving wire.
The following Patent Document 2 discloses a “shading module for multi-step seats”.
The shading module for multi-step seats according to the following Patent Document 2 is installed in the multi-step seats—of which use state is implemented by the relative withdrawal of multiple stages including the 1st grandstand and the 2nd grandstand that is the upper stage of the 1st grandstand, and of which storage state is implemented by their relative hiding—to be connected to and support a blocking unit that provides a blocking area in which external factors can be blocked so that at least a part of the blocking unit can be located at a predetermined height with respect to the multi-step seats.
The shading module for multi-step seats includes: an external force applying unit that applies an external force to the blocking unit so as to automatically deform the blocking area in response to a change in state of the multi-step seats from the storage state to the use state; a blocking limiting unit connected to the external force applying unit to limit the position of the blocking unit so that the blocking unit is spaced downwardly from a portion connected to the external force applying unit to prevent the blocking unit from sagging beyond a predetermined distance; and a blocking support unit connected to the external force applying unit and supporting the blocking limiting unit.
The external force applying unit includes a 1st external force applying unit connected to the 1st grandstand and a 2nd external force applying unit connected to the 2nd grandstand, wherein the 1st external force applying unit is connected to the side of the 1st grandstand in a forward direction when the multi-step seats are in a storage state so that it contacts the side of the 1st grandstand and the side of the 2nd grandstand in the forward direction of the 1st external force applying unit.

As shown in
Referring to
The 2nd sunshade (162) is provided adjacent to the 1st sunshade (161), and may be formed in a radial arc shape to form a shading space. In addition, the 2nd sunshade (162) may be formed to have a smaller diameter than the 1st sunshade (161) so that the 2nd sunshade (162) can be folded into the 1st sunshade (161).
The 3rd sunshade (163) is provided adjacent to the 2nd sunshade (162), and may be formed in a radial arc shape to form a shading space. In addition, the 3rd sunshade (163) may be formed to have a smaller diameter than the 2nd sunshade (162) so that the 3rd sunshade (163) can be folded into the 2nd sunshade (162).
Each of the sunshade members (160) is formed in a cone shape, and is installed so that a user can selectively deploy (expand and fold) the sunshades (161, 162, and 163).
The 1st rotary frame (164) may fix one end of the 1st sunshade (161), and may be rotatably coupled to the 1st rotary bracket (151).
The 2nd rotary frame (165) may consist of a 2nd-1 rotary frame (165a) having a larger arc diameter and a 2nd-2 rotary frame (165b) having a smaller diameter than the 2nd-1 rotary frame (165a), and may be rotatably coupled to the bracket (151).

The 4th rotary frame (167) may be fixed to the other end of the 3rd sunshade (163), and may be rotatably coupled to the 1st rotary bracket (151).
Referring back to
Referring to
The 1st wire (172) may have one end fixed to the 1st rotary frame (164) and the other end fixed to the turnbuckle (171). Here, the turnbuckle (171) refers to a mechanism for adjusting the length of a support bar or a support wire rope. The 1st wire (172) tensions the deployed sunshade member (160), thereby stably maintaining the deployed state of the sunshade member (160). In addition, the binding structure of the 1st wire (172) and the 2nd wire (173) is useful to maintain stability against strong wind.
The 2nd wire (173) may pass through the multiple fixing parts (143), with one end fixed to the turnbuckle (171) and the other end fixed to the 4th rotary frame (167). The turnbuckle (171) can adjust the lengths of the 1st wire (172) and the 2nd wire (173), as well as release the 1st wire (172) from the turnbuckle 171 to fold the sunshade member (160).
That is, the sunshade member (160) can be easily folded by releasing the 1st wire (172) or the 2nd wire (173) connected to the turnbuckle (171).
In addition, the deployment control member (170) may further comprise a 3rd wire (174).
The 3rd wire (174) connects one end of the 1st wire (172) and the other end of the 2nd wire (173), and may be fixed to the 1st rotary frame (164), the 2nd rotary frame (165), and the 3rd rotary frame (166), and the 4th rotary frame (167).
In addition, the deployment control member (170) may be made of a wire having sufficient strength to support the weight of the sunshade member (160).
In addition, the deployment control member (170) may further comprise an elastic adjustment member (not shown). The elastic adjustment member may be provided between the 2nd wire (173) and the 3rd wire (174). The elastic control member normally applies a force in the folding direction of the sunshade member (160), and when the user combines the 1st wire (172) with the turnbuckle (171), the elastic force is balanced so that the sunshade member (160) can be maintained in an unfolded state. By being provided with the elastic adjustment member, the sunshade member (160) can be automatically folded as soon as the connection between the 1st wire (172) and the turnbuckle (171) is released.
In addition, the deployment control member (170) may comprise a gas spring (not shown). The gas spring may be provided between the 2nd wire (173) and the 3rd wire (174). Since the gas spring is a conventional one that reciprocates the piston rod by high-pressure gas, a detailed description thereof will be omitted. The gas spring may adjust the height of the 3rd sunshade (163) connected to the 3rd wire (174).
That is, by lowering the gas spring, the user can lower the height of the 3rd sunshade (163), and accordingly lower the height at which the 1st sunshade (161) and the 2nd sunshade (162) are deployed. By being provided with the gas spring, the angle variable multi-stage sunshade device (100) according to the present invention can deploy the sunshade member (160) at a low position to block the sunlight in the morning or evening when the sun is low, and at a high position to block the sunlight during lunchtime when the sun is high.
Referring back to
The fence member (180) may be installed along the circumference of the baseplate member (130). The fence member (180) can be additionally installed and used for the convenience of the user, and may be excluded as needed as shown in
As shown in
When the 1st wire (172) or the 2nd wire (173) is released from the turnbuckle (171), the sunshade member (160) can freely rotate around the rotary support member (150), and accordingly, the 1st rotary frame (164), the 2nd rotary frame (165), the 3rd rotary frame (166), and the 4th rotary frame (167) can be sequentially folded.
Hereinafter, the structure of the angle variable multi-stage sunshade device (100) according to the present invention and an operation related thereto will be described with reference to
First, referring to
The user may sit on the baseplate member (130) and take a break. The sunshade member (160) can be opened and closed by adjusting the deployment control member (170). When the 1st wire (172) of the deployment control member (170) is pulled and coupled to the turnbuckle (171), the deployment control member (170) is tightly fixed and the sunshade member (160) fixed to the deployment control member (170) can also be fully deployed. The 1st wire (172) tensions the deployed sunshade member (160), thereby stably maintaining the deployed state of the sunshade member (160). In addition, the angle and height of the sunshade member (160) can be adjusted little by little by rotating the center of the turnbuckle (171). When removing the sunshade member (160), if the coupling between the turnbuckle (171) and the 1st wire (172) or the 2nd wire (173) is released, the sunshade member (160) freely rotates around the rotary support member (150), and as shown in
In addition, the deployment control member (170) has an elastic adjustment member to apply a force in the direction of folding the sunshade member (160) in usual times. When the user combines the 1st wire (172) with the turnbuckle 1(71), the elastic force is balanced so that the sunshade member (160) can be maintained in an unfolded state. By being provided with the elastic adjustment member, the sunshade member (160) can be automatically folded as soon as the connection between the 1st wire (172) and the turnbuckle 171 is released.
In addition, the deployment control member (170) may have a gas spring to adjust the height of the sunshade member (160). When the user lowers the gas spring, the height of the 3rd sunshade (163) is lowered, and accordingly, the height at which the 1st sunshade (161) and the 2nd sunshade (162) are deployed can be lowered. By being provided with the gas spring, the angle variable multi-stage sunshade device (100) according to the present invention can unfold the sunshade member (160) at a low position to block the sunlight in the morning or evening when the sun is low, and at a high position to block the sunlight during lunchtime when the sun is high.
In addition, the direction of the sunshade member (160) can be changed easily according to the user's convenience by rotating the rotary frame member (140 When an external force is applied while the rotary frame member (140 is seated on the roller (125) of the support member (120), the rotary frame member (140 may rotate along the path guided by the roller (125). At this time, by being alternately provided with the 1st support (121) having the roller (125) in the direction to one side and the 2nd support (122) having the roller (125) in the upward direction, the support member (120) may prevent movement and shaking of the rotary frame member (140), thereby making it rotate in a fixed position.
In addition, when the rotary frame member (140 rotates, the 2nd wire (173), wound along the circumference of the rotary frame member (140, rotates together to turn the sunshade member (160) in a desired direction without being limited by the location of the deployment control member (170).
In addition, a fence member (180) can be installed and used according to the user's convenience.
As described above, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the use of a rotary frame member allows the user to easily turn the sunshade in a desired direction.

As shown in
One end of the 1st wire (1171) is fixed to the 1st sunshade frame (1132) of the 1st sunshade unit (1131), and the other end of the 1st wire (1171) is fixed to the 3rd sunshade frame (1142) of the 3rd sunshade unit (1141).
The 1st wire (1171) consists of a short wire (171a) to be installed between the 1st sunshade unit (1131) and the length control member (1176) and a long wire (171b) to be installed between the length control member (1176) and the 3rd sunshade frame (1142).
One end of the short wire (171a) is connected to the 1st sunshade frame (1132) of the 1st sunshade unit (1131), and the other end of the short wire (171a) is connected to the length control member (1176).
On the other hand, one end of the long wire (171b) is connected to the length control member (1176), and the other end of the long wire (171b) is connected to the 4th sunshade frame (1144) of the 3rd sunshade unit (1141).
The 1st wire (1171) keep taut the deployed 1st and 3rd sunshade units (1131, 1141) to stably maintain the deployed state of all of the 1st sunshade unit (1131), 2nd sunshade unit (1135) and 3rd sunshade unit (1141).
In addition, the length control member (1176) may use a turnbuckle as an example, and may adjust the length of the short wire (171a) and the long wire (171b) as well as release the 1st wire (1171) from the length control member (1176) so that the sunshade member (1130) can be folded.
That is, the sunshade member (1130) can be easily folded by releasing the short wire (171a) or the long wire (171b) connected to the length control member (1176).
In addition, the 2nd wire (1172) is installed on one side inside the 1st sunshade unit (1131) and the 3rd sunshade unit (1141), and the 3rd wire (1173) is installed on the other side inside the 1st sunshade unit (1131) and the 3rd sunshade unit (1141).
These 2nd wire (1172) and 3rd wire (1173) limit the deployment range of the 1st and 3rd sunshade units (1131, 1141).
That is, the 1st sunshade unit (1131) and the 3rd sunshade unit (1141) are deployed in a limited range of the length of the wires (172, 173) by the 2nd wire (1172) and the 3rd wire (1173).
In addition, a pair of fixing brackets (1174) are installed on the lower portion of the length control member (1176), and a rotary roller (1175) allowing the 1st wire (1171) to move smoothly is installed on the fixing bracket (1174).
