Abstract (en)

A covering and shading system (1) with a pair of bearing poles (2A, 2B) for supporting a shaft (4), a pair of tensioning poles (5A, 5B) for supporting pulleys (8A, 8B), a sheet element (9) adapted to be wound/unwound on the shaft (4), means (13) for rotating the drive shaft (4), a first cable (16) returned on the pulleys (8A, 8B) with ends (17A, 17B) connected to the element (9), a second cable (19) with one end (20B) interacting with the shaft (4) and one end (20A) interacting with the first cable (16), a third cable (23) with one end (24A) interacting with the first cable (16) and the opposite end (24B) connected to elastic counteracting means (26). The means (13) comprise a drum (14) on which the end (20B) is wound and the elastic means (26) are housed in one of the bearing poles (2B) and comprise a spring (27) which extends coaxial therewith to be protected from the outside environment. The spring (27) has a portion (27') connected to the end (24B) and a portion (27") secured to the lower end (3) of the pole (2B) which has a pulley (29) for returning the third cable (23). The end (20B) is wound on the drum (14) in an orthogonal direction from top to bottom and the ends (20A, 20B, 24A) are placed above the shaft (4) to avoid any contact and risk of injury to users.
