Foldable protection screen

TECHNICAL SECTOR

The present invention refers to a large-sized protection screen, of the type used to delimit safe areas, in order to establish a barrier against viruses, bacteria and the like.

The object of the invention is to provide a large protective screen that can be easily adapted to different lengths in plan depending on the specific needs of each case, and that in an inoperative situation presents reduced dimensions, being easy to implant, disimplant, store and transport.

The invention is especially applicable in the compartmentalization of security areas in terraces, bars, shops, banks, hospitals, pharmacies and ultimately any type of business facing the public.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

As is known, the appearance of Covid-19 has made it necessary to significantly increase security measures, especially in establishments facing the public, such as those mentioned above.

The use of protection screens or separating screens is becoming a generalized practice, so that the problem that these types of security measures usually present is that they have invariable dimensions, as well as a rigid structure, so that they do not allow adaptation to changing situations, being in many cases bulky elements, difficult to transport, store and implant.

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION

The folding protection screen that is recommended solves in a fully satisfactory way the problems previously exposed in the different aspects discussed, based on a simple but effective solution, which allows it to be adapted to different dimensions or work areas depending on the specific needs of every moment, all in a folding structure, which presents a minimum volumetric occupation in an inoperative situation, which facilitates its transport, storage and implantation.

For this, and more specifically, the screen of the invention is made up of two posts of considerable height, intended to be plugged into the respective holes at the bottom, whether they are made on the ground or by using concrete bases, movable to the area of implantation of the screen, so that one of the posts includes a casing in which a self-winding mechanism of a rectangular canvas is established, which at its other end is linked to the second post, constituting a folding set and deployable at will, which can be deployed to the desired size, thus being able to adapt to different changing needs.

The canvas will preferably be of a transparent nature, without ruling out other natures or decorations.

The device thus described, in addition to being a protection screen, could be used in other additional applications, as an advertising element or, for example, as a shower screen.

In this way, a device is perfectly adaptable to spaces of different dimensions, easy to implant, disimplant, store and transport.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

To complement the description that is going to be made below and in order to help To a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, in accordance with a preferred example of its practical realization, a set of drawings is attached as an integral part of said description, where, with an illustrative and non-limiting nature, the following has been represented:

Figure 1.- Shows a front elevation view of a folding protection screen made according to the object of the present invention, in the folded position and minimum occupation.

Figure 2.- Shows a view similar to that of figure 1, but in which the screen appears partially unfolded.

Figure 3.- Finally, shows a view similar to that of figure 2, but in which the screen appears fully unfolded.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION

In view of the figures outlined, it can be seen how the device of the invention is constituted from a pair of vertical posts (1-1 '), for example with a height of 150 to 200mm, so that in one of the posts (1 ') a casing (2) is established with a mechanism for self-winding a rectangular canvas (3), horizontally elongated.

The canvas is fixed at its opposite end to the other post (1), so that it can be deployed at will, depending on the specific needs of each case, said canvas being able to have a length of up to 200 mm or even more if it were necessary.

As previously said, the posts (1-1 ') will be stabilized by plugging their lower end into respective blind holes made in the ground, or by using concrete bases, such as those used for umbrellas or in barriers for works, implantable in the area to be compartmentalized / protected.

It only remains to point out that the canvas may preferably be transparent, or present all kinds of decorations or advertising.

Based on this structuring, and as the figures show, the screen can adapt to different spaces of different sizes in a perfectly adjusted way, such as those shown in figures 2 and 3, or be folded according to what is shown in figure 1, and thus occupy a minimum space, being easy to assemble, disassemble, move and store.
