Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2004086898A1] Previously known protective canopy structures which discharge accumulating rain water in an outward direction are characterized in that the members (30) required for stretching the canopy area (10) are entirely or partly disposed below the canopy area (10), a setup which has the disadvantage of the members (30) spoiling the esthetic appearance while the use of the canopy area (10) as an advertising surface or reflecting surface is restricted from below. The aim of the invention is not to affect the canopy area (10) from below. Said aim is achieved by arranging all members (30) required for opening the protective canopy structure exclusively above the canopy area, resulting in a large variety of embodiments which mainly show the applicability of the invention to many different canopy areas and opening mechanisms. The inventive protective canopy structures are particularly suitable for fields of application in which the view of the protective canopy structure from below is very important as the space located below is to be enhanced and the canopy area (10) is to be used as an advertising surface or reflecting surface from below. Said protective canvas structures are suitable for use in restaurants, at vending stands, at beaches, or in a private context, the smallest application relating to umbrellas.
