Pouch made from flexible material with light display
Pouch made from flexible material for light display, the pouch having at least two plies of a flexible material, the plies defining at least two faces between which an internal space is delimited, and a light display module which is received in the internal space and which has an electronic board on which are mounted a plurality of electroluminescent diodes and a memory zone in which instructions are recorded and allow the lighting of the electroluminescent diodes to be controlled in order to create at least one predetermined display pattern.
UNIVERSAL STOCK CANOPY
A canopy assembly and method of assembly are disclosed herein. The canopy assembly comprises a canopy, a roll tube, and a flexible polyrod. The canopy fixedly encircles first and second polyrods at first location spaced between a distal end and a proximal end of the canopy and at a second location at the distal end of the canopy. The roll tube comprises first and second channels extending longitudinally across the roll tube. The first polyrod is housed within the first channel to maintain a position of the canopy section relative to the roll tube. The second polyrod is housed within a canopy rail to attach the canopy to a support structure. A flexible polyrod, non-fixedly and at least partially encircled by the canopy is housed within the second channel to maintain a position of a valance section of the canopy relative to the roll tube.
Awning assembly
The present embodiments are directed to an awning assembly for a recreational vehicle comprising a main body, a flexible awning material, a roller tube, a lead rail, at least one support leg hinged to the lead rail, and at least one tension rafter being mountable between the main body and the lead rail. The at least one support leg is hinged to the lead rail so that the support leg can be hinged into a first storage section of the lead rail frame. The lead rail frame comprises a second storage section for receiving the tension rafter therein, wherein the second storage section comprises an opening, wherein either holder is disposed within the opening, or the tension rafter is self-clamping into the second storage section.
Awning Assembly Attachment
An awning assembly attachment is provided which is connectable to an awning assembly and allows adjustable installation of supports. In some embodiments, the attachment has a head which is connectable to an awning groove to allow for adjustable positioning of the attachments. The supports may be installed at seats of the attachment. The supports provide for the use of partitions that define walls of a porch or enclosure, or for connection of a tension rafter or a de-flapper structure, among other things.
DOUBLE ROLL-TYPE CLOSURE
A roll type closure has a fixed mounting frame, an inner curtain secured to an inner roller, an outer curtain secured to an external roller rotatably mounted to the inner roller, actuating mechanisms, a bottom rail disposed at the free end of the inner curtain and coupled with the outer roller so as to make the inner and outer rollers integral in rotation, a lever with a hook mounted on the outer roller to move from a retracted position, where the hook does not protrude from the outer roller, to an extracted position, where the hook protrudes from the outer roller, the lever being in the extracted position when the outer curtain is unrolled completely, and a stop member mounted in the frame such that when the lever is in the extracted position the hook is stopped against the stop member, blocking the rotation of the outer roller.
AWNING DROP SHADE AND ATTACHMENT METHOD
An awning shade that attaches to a motorized retractable awning with a fail-safe removal mechanism that does not interfere with the safe operation of the awning because it automatically removes the drop shade from the awning when the powered awning retracts automatically. A combination of adhesive tapes and magnets is employed to install the shade fabric on the awning. Magnets embedded into the fabric are magnetically attached to corresponding external magnets, which, in turn, are attached to the extended end of the awning with the help of double-sided adhesive tapes. A pair of lanyards tether the installed drop shade to the ground and facilitate its fail-safe removal through magnetic detachment when the awning retracts automatically. Fabric pockets provided on the shading fabric allow insertion of a non-ferrous rod into them to lift the magnet-containing fabric above ground for placement on the extended end of the awning without a ladder.
Awning apparatus
An awning assembly with a mount portion, an extendable bar assembly, an upper canopy being retractable to a compact configuration adjacent to the mount portion and extendable to an extended position upon extension of the extendable bar assembly to provide shade from above, a lower canopy coupled with the extendable bar assembly and extendable therefrom to provide shade from a side position. The extendable bar assembly comprises a first roller coupled with the upper canopy, a second roller coupled with the lower canopy and a motion generator coupled with the second roller, the motion generator configured to store energy as the second roller is moved to retract the lower canopy and configured to use the stored energy to move the second roller to extend the lower canopy from the extendable bar assembly.
