Benefits of technology
"The present invention provides an automated awning that can open and close automatically, saving space, operation time and manpower. The awning includes a screw rod driven by a motor, a tube body, a first support rod, a second support rod, a main shaft, a main support bracket, a first main Support rod, a second main Support rod, a main link rod, a first link rod, a second link rod, a third main Support rod, and a second main Support rod. The awning can be controlled by a gear wheel and a spring. The technical effects of the invention are improved efficiency, convenience, and reduced labor costs."
Problems solved by technology
The conventional automated awnings used in automobiles shield solar radiations from inside the car, which cannot prevent the absorption of solar radiations by the car bodies and the temperature rise within the cars.
It is a further disadvantage that the awnings should be installed on each of the car windows and the wind shield and that they have to be taken down when the car is in use, which is very inconvenient.
The awnings of this type have large surface area, which are difficult to install and will occupy storage space when they are not in use.

Embodiment Construction
[0015]Referring to FIGS. 1, 2, 2-A, 3 and 4, the first preferred embodiment of the present invention as an automated awning comprises a screw rod 100, a first support rod 200, a second support rod 300, a block piece 4, a main shaft 500 and a main support bracket 600. The main shaft 500 is connected to a screw rod 100 through a sleeve 20 by a screw 10. The screw rod 100, further comprising coaxially engaged and mutually contractible tube parts A, B, C and D (11, 12, 13 and 14), is driven by a motor so that the first support rod 200 and the second support rod 300 can move backward or forward. The tube part D 14 further comprises a push head 140 for pushing a free rotor 30 and a fixed rotor 40, whereby the screw rod 100, coupled with the first support rod 200 and the second support rod 300, will move in the forward or backward direction. The main support bracket 600 is disposed between the main shaft 500 and the second support rod 300, and a spring 50 is disposed between the main suppo...

An automated awning comprises a main shaft connected to a screw rod through a sleeve by a screw means. The screw rod is driven by a motor to activate a first support rod and a second support rod to slide forward or backward sliding motion. A main support bracket is disposed between the main shaft and a second support rod, and a spring is disposed between the main support bracket and the main shaft. There are deep and shallow grooves and a slopped surface within the second support rod; a free rotor and a fixed rotor are inserted therein. A tube body is mounted on a motor mount and enclosing the first support rod. The tube body is then inserted into an outer tube. As the screw rod drives the first and second support rods forward, a gear teeth strip on one side of said first link rod stretches a spring so as to open a sun roof by extending the second main support rod, the second link rod and the third main support rod; the rotors are retained on the slopped surface for fixing the main support bracket.
Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to automated awnings, more particularly to an automated awning capable of opening and closing automatically, therefore saving space, operation time and manpower.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The conventional automated awnings used in automobiles shield solar radiations from inside the car, which cannot prevent the absorption of solar radiations by the car bodies and the temperature rise within the cars. It is a further disadvantage that the awnings should be installed on each of the car windows and the wind shield and that they have to be taken down when the car is in use, which is very inconvenient. Another type of awnings is for being used with outside coffee tables. The awnings of this type have large surface area, which are difficult to install and will occupy storage space when they are not in use. Therefore, the present invention provides an automated awning capable of opening and closing automatically, thereby savin...
