Retractable Awning With Improved Set-Up Capability

US Patent:
4530389, Jul 23, 1985
Filed:
Aug 18, 1983
Appl. No.:
6/524455
Inventors:
Anthony W. Quinn - Westminster CO
Donald S. McKee - Louisville CO
Richard B. Rader - Thornton CO
Assignee:
The Scott & Fetzer Company - Westlake OH
International Classification:
E04F 1006
US Classification:
160 46
Abstract:
A roll control mechanism of a retractable awning assembly includes spring clutches to operatively control the rotation of the roll bar in each of the two opposite rotational directions. Selective locking to prevent unrolling or extension of the canopy in one situation or to prevent the rolling or winding up of the canopy in another situation is achieved. A selector device for controlling the operation of the spring clutches is located on the support arm intermediate the top end connected to the roll bar and the bottom end adapted for contacting a support surface. Control of the roll control mechanism during set-up of the awning assembly is conveniently achieved. A support locking mechanism is also included within the selector device for fixing the length of two telescope support members of the support arm. Fixing the operative length occurs simultaneously as the roll control mechanism is controlled. An improved latching mechanism for connecting the bottom end of the support arm to a vertical support surface is manually actuated to selectively release the pivotable connection of the bottom end of the support arm, includes a shelf-like extension for guiding the support arm guiding end into a latching relationship, and includes a receptacle for receiving an outer end of the brace member to prevent a catch piece of the latching mechanism from disconnecting the bottom end of the support arm.

Water-Tight Sealing System For Articulated Slats

US Patent:
4909296, Mar 20, 1990
Filed:
Mar 1, 1988
Appl. No.:
7/162565
Inventors:
Richard G. Sellke - Denver CO
Richard B. Rader - Thornton CO
International Classification:
E04F 1006
US Classification:
160 67
Abstract:
A system for establishing a water-tight seal along a joint between articulated slats of the type which might be used along the inner edge of a retractable awning includes the use of male and female connection elements along opposite edges of the slats and a resilient strip of material bridging the space between connected male and female elements to prevent the passage of water through the joint.
