Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sunshade equipment technology, and in particular to sunshade awnings. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, many bus stops are equipped with sunshades to facilitate passenger waiting. These facilities, commonly known as sunshades, mainly consist of three parts: the roof, the supporting structure, and auxiliary facilities. The roof shields passengers from the sun, the supporting structure ensures the sunshade's stability, and the auxiliary facilities further enhance the waiting experience. Working together, these three elements create a more comfortable environment for waiting passengers. Traditional sunshades are compact in design with limited roof area, making it difficult to cover the entire bus stop waiting area. As the sun's angle changes, their shading effect is greatly reduced, leaving a large number of waiting passengers exposed to sunlight. Especially during the high temperatures of summer, this not only makes passengers feel unbearably hot but also poses a risk of heatstroke. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems of traditional sunshades, which are compact in design, have limited shading area, and whose shading effect deteriorates with changes in the angle of the sun, especially in summer when the sun shines directly on passengers and the high temperature can easily cause passengers to feel stuffy and suffer from heatstroke.
[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a sunshade awning, including an awning roof, and further including: a support cover fixedly connected to the lower surface of the awning roof, the support cover having a pair of sunshade roller blind mechanisms inside; a pair of switching mechanisms installed on the lower surface of the awning roof to drive the corresponding roller blind mechanism switches; and a pair of limiting mechanisms provided on the outer wall of the support cover to support the vertical lifting and lowering of the roller blind mechanisms.
[0005] Optionally, the roller blind mechanism includes a support block fixedly connected inside the support cover. Both ends of the support block are fixedly connected to motors, and the output shafts of the motors are fixedly connected to a winding shaft. The end of the winding shaft away from the motor is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support cover. A sunshade film is wound on the winding shaft. One end of the sunshade film is fixedly connected to the winding shaft, and the other end of the sunshade film is fixedly connected to a counterweight base rod. The sunshade film is made of polarizing film.
[0006] Optionally, the switching mechanism includes a support rod fixedly connected to the lower surface of the roof, a temperature sensor fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support rod, the temperature sensor being electrically connected to the input terminal of the controller, and the output terminal of the controller being electrically connected to the corresponding motor.
[0007] Optionally, the limiting mechanism includes multiple pairs of sleeves fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support cover, each sleeve having a limiting rod slidably connected inside, and both ends of the counterweight base rod having a support plate fixedly connected to the outer wall, the support plate being fixedly connected to the bottom end of the corresponding limiting rod.
[0008] Optionally, the top of each limiting rod is fixedly connected with a locking ball to hold the support sleeve.
[0009] Optionally, the bottom of the support cover is provided with a film-passing groove for the sunshade roll film to pass through and lock the counterweight base rod, and the inside of the film-passing groove is provided with an arc-shaped abutment groove to tightly lock the counterweight base rod.
[0010] Optionally, the bottom of the canopy is provided with a bracket fixed to the ground, the bracket is provided with a pair of advertising windows, and the outer wall of the bracket is also provided with a pair of seats.
[0011] Optionally, sunshades are fixedly connected to both ends of the bracket, and the sunshades have multiple ventilation holes arranged in a linear pattern.
[0012] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0013] This utility model utilizes the combination of structures such as the roof, support cover, roller shutter mechanism, and switch mechanism. The sunshade is equipped with an intelligent system that can automatically activate the roller shutter mechanism according to changes in the angle of sunlight and temperature.
[0014] During periods of intense sunlight and high temperatures, the sunshade roll-up membrane unfolds precisely, effectively blocking sunlight and reducing the risk of heatstroke for passengers. When the sunshade is not needed, the membrane retracts, making the sunshade structure compact, saving space, and making the bus stop design more flexible and aesthetically pleasing. Furthermore, the system can intelligently control the opening and closing of the sunshade roll-up membrane based on the characteristics of sunlight in different seasons and times of day, providing shade for passengers without affecting their ability to clearly identify bus numbers, thus comprehensively optimizing the waiting experience.

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0020] Example
[0021] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the sunshade proposed in this utility model includes a roof 1, with a support cover 2 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the roof 1. Inside the support cover 2, a pair of roller blind mechanisms for sunshade are provided. The roller blind mechanisms include a support block 21 fixedly connected inside the support cover 2. Motors 22 are fixedly connected to both ends of the support block 21. A winding shaft 23 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of each motor 22. The end of the winding shaft 23 away from the motor 22 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support cover 2. A sunshade film 24 is wound on the winding shaft 23. One end of the sunshade film 24 is fixedly connected to the winding shaft 23, and the other end is fixedly connected to a counterweight base rod 25. The counterweight base rod 25 is made of hollow aluminum alloy, making it sturdy and durable. The sunshade film 24 is made of polarizing film, which selectively filters out strong sunlight and improves visual clarity. While providing shade, it also allows passengers to clearly see the bus number.
[0022] In addition, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a pair of switching mechanisms that drive the corresponding roller shutter mechanism switches are installed on the lower surface of the canopy 1. The switching mechanism includes a support rod 11 fixedly connected to the lower surface of the canopy 1. A temperature sensor 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the support rod 11. The temperature sensor 12 is a device that can sense temperature and convert it into a measurable, transmittable, and processable signal. The temperature sensor 12 is electrically connected to the input terminal of the controller, and the output terminal of the controller is electrically connected to the corresponding motor 22.
[0023] It is worth noting that, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the outer wall of the support cover 2 is provided with a pair of limiting mechanisms for the vertical lifting and lowering of the roller blind mechanism. The limiting mechanism includes multiple pairs of sleeves 26 fixedly connected to the outer wall of the support cover 2. Each sleeve 26 has a limiting rod 27 slidably connected inside. After the limiting rod 27, sleeve 26 and support plate 29 cooperate, the unfolded sunshade roller film 24 is firm and stable, avoiding violent swaying caused by wind. Support plates 29 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of both ends of the counterweight base rod 25. The support plates 29 are fixedly connected to the bottom ends of the corresponding limiting rods 27. Each limiting rod 27 has a locking ball 28 fixedly connected to the top end to lock the sleeve 26. The locking ball 28 ensures that after the sunshade roller film 24 is completely unloaded from the winding shaft 23, the locking ball 28 at the top end of the limiting rod 27 just locks the sleeve 26.
[0024] further, Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the support cover 2 is provided with a film-passing groove 201 for the sunshade roll film 24 to pass through and lock the counterweight bottom rod 25. Inside the film-passing groove 201 is an arc-shaped abutment groove 202 that tightly locks the counterweight bottom rod 25. The arc-shaped abutment groove 202 ensures that the counterweight bottom rod 25, which is retracted into the film-passing groove 201, will not slide arbitrarily.
[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the canopy 1 is equipped with a support 3 fixed to the ground. A pair of advertising windows 4 are mounted on the support 3, which are for installing advertisements inside. A pair of seats 5 are also provided on the outer wall of the support 3, for passengers to rest while waiting for vehicles. Sunshades 6 are fixedly connected to both ends of the support 3 to prevent sunlight from entering from the sides of the canopy. Multiple ventilation holes 61 are arranged linearly on the sunshade 6, ensuring that the sunshade 6 provides shade without being too airtight.
[0026] In this embodiment, when using a sunshade, such as Figure 1 As shown, when the corresponding temperature sensor 12 is exposed to sunlight and absorbs heat, it will activate when it reaches a certain temperature. The activated temperature sensor 12 sends a signal to the controller, which then sends a command to the corresponding motor 22. After the motor 22 starts, its output shaft drives the take-up shaft 23 to rotate. The rotating take-up shaft 23 causes the sunshade roll film 24 to rotate, allowing the end of the sunshade roll film 24 with the counterweight base rod 25 to slowly detach through the film insertion groove 201. As the counterweight base rod 25 moves downwards, it drives a pair of support plates 29 to move. Each support plate 29 drives its corresponding limit rod 27 to slide within the support sleeve 26, ensuring that the counterweight base rod 25 can only move vertically up and down, preventing swaying due to wind. The counterweight base rod 25 moves downwards until the ball 28 at the top of the limit rod 27 engages the support sleeve 26, at which point it almost touches the ground, completing the unfolding of the sunshade roll film 24. This allows the sunshade roll-up film 24 to block sunlight, preventing direct sunlight from shining on passengers inside the support frame 3, and leaving a wide space between the two unfolded sunshade roll-up films 24 for passengers to enter and exit. Finally, because the sunshade roll-up film 24 uses a polarizing film, it can selectively filter out strong sunlight and improve visual clarity. While providing shade, it also allows passengers to clearly see the bus number.

For those skilled in the art, any equivalent modifications or substitutions to the utility model are also within the scope of the utility model. Therefore, all equivalent transformations, modifications, and improvements made without departing from the spirit and principles of the utility model should be covered within the scope of the utility model.
