Abstract (en)

Pitch awning which comprises a support structure (2), provided with at least two guides (4) which are extended along respective parallel extension directions (X' and X"), and a plurality of transverse profiles (5) mounted on the support structure (2) and slidably engaged, at the ends (5a) thereof, with the guides (4) and movable along a slide direction (X) parallel to the extension directions (X' and X") of the guides (4). Each of the transverse profiles (5) is provided with an upper face (6) on which at least one longitudinal groove (7) is obtained. The awning also comprises a covering sheet (8) supported by the transverse profiles (5) and movable between a collected position (A) and an extended position (B) through the sliding of the transverse profiles (5) along the slide direction (X) in a collection sense (R) and in an extension sense (E). The sheet (8) comprises a plurality of separate sheet portions (8') arranged in succession along the slide direction (X), each provided with a front edge (9) and with a rear edge (10), with respect to the extension sense (E), which are respectively fixed to two distinct adjacent profiles (5). The rear edge (10) and the front edge (9) of two sheet portions (8') arranged in succession face one another at a same transverse profile (5) and are provided respectively with at least one first joining element (11) and with at least one second joining element (12) susceptible of being joined together in shape engagement to fix together the rear edge (10) and the front edge (9) of the sheet portions (8'). Each of the at least one first joining element (11) is susceptible of being fixed to the transverse profile (5), housed in shape engagement in one of the at least one longitudinal groove (7) of the transverse profile (5).
