Definitions
- the present invention relates to protective roof according to the preamble of claim 1, 10 and 24, and a method for protecting vines according to the preamble of claim 20.
- Hail or frost often leads to significant yield losses in vineyards.
- late frosts or hail trains which are embedded in a storm front, can result in significant yield losses, with hail of 10 to 90%, s.
- Late frost can produce the same devastating effects. Late frost is used when a short but comparatively extreme cold snap occurs at a time when the vines begin to drive out after the winter, and are then "in the juice". Late frost can rarely occur in February or March, but often in April or later, until May.
- An example of late frost is described in the "Schweizerische Zeitschrift für Obst- und Weinbau", 22/12, p. 7 in the article "Ejected Vines - Possibility or Self-Education”. The late frost described there took place on May 18, 2012, which was preceded by an earlier late frost from Easter Monday 2012 - both times the temperature in the vine area had fallen to -5 ° C.
- Late frost is a transient phenomenon, in contrast to winter frost, which can take days or weeks in the seasonal context.
- Late frost can occur as "freezing frost” or “wind frost”, with radiating frost as a result of heat losses from the earth's surface in dry, calm air and clear Sky at night and wind frost is described as a result of relatively rapid influx of cold air masses, s. the magazine “Vine &Wine” 4/2914, in the article “So that the vines do not freeze off", p.22. Remedy against late frost, especially against radiation frost, to create according to "vine &wine” heaters such as heating candles (stop-gel candles) or heating wires, with vineyards in Australia were so protected against temperatures of - 6 ° C.
- Vines are mainly pulled on a scaffold, whereby the growing on the frame of vines are cut several times and harvested.
- the framework may consist of vertical posts connected by horizontal wires supporting the growing vine branches.
- the cutting and harvesting is done by machine, which is why the frameworks are arranged in rows that form lanes through which the cutting and harvesting machines can travel.
- a retractable, pneumatic protective roof is provided for the covering of vine, can not be damaged by hail, since the STE Henden structure under operating pressure chambers form an elastic surface which cushions the impact of hail grains ⁇ harmless.
- the retracted pneumatic canopy can be quickly and easily extended and retracted by the means for pulling just as quickly and easily, and it does not disturb the vine in the retracted state, neither by Shading the vine still by obstructing the care or harvest of the vine.
- the protective roof in particular if it is a pneumatic canopy, can be combined in arrangements to protective roofs, large and largest wine growing areas can be protected efficiently and at low cost, with the constant r- schaff the protective roof allows protection at all: even with smaller Vineyards would be the construction of protective roofs stored away from the Rebber prohibit, since the critical late frost situation can often be recognized only in such a short time that the structure can be done only in time, not to mention the organization of the required staff and the cost of Auf - and the mining.

- Figure la shows vines 1 with individual vines 2, which grow tall in a framework 3, wherein the framework forms a long line, so that juxtaposed scaffolds 3 to form parallel rows, each having a lane 4 ( Figure 1b) for use of care or harvesting machines between them.
- the framework 3 has in the embodiment shown vertical posts 5 with horizontally extending wires 6, which give the branches of the vines support. Scaffolds for vines can be designed differently, but will always have components such as the wires on which the branches find support and support structures for these components.
- FIG. 1b schematically shows a preferred embodiment of the present invention with canopies 10 grouped in assemblies 11, with each two protective canopies 10 positioned next to each other and lying substantially in the same plane.
- Each canopy 10 is shown by the dashed line 12 in the extended state and by the bold line 13 in retracted or retracted state.
- the shelters 10 rest in the illustrated embodiment on the wires 6 and are fixed thereto.
- other support elements such as from 5 posts to 5 posts reaching long metal rods are provided, which can also be carried by their own posts or supports.
- the skilled person can determine a suitable support arrangement for the canopies for the specific case, but will usually use the existing scaffolds 3 ( Figure la) or modify them only slightly.
- the canopies 10 of an assembly 11 each have an outer side 14 and an inner side 15, wherein for retraction of a protective roof 10, the respective outer side 14 is pulled against the inner side 15 (and vice versa, for the extension of the Protective roof 10).
- the side against which the protective roof is pulled in is referred to as "inside” or "inside” side.
- In the area of the inner sides 15 of the canopies 10 means are provided for fixing them to the wires 6, s.
- the tabs 28 according to Figure 2a. This results in arrangement 11,11 *, 11 ** (see also Fig.
- a protective roof 10 In the extended state, a protective roof 10 preferably has a width between 30 and 40 cm, particularly preferably 32 cm, the posts 5 preferably having a spacing of 3 to 5 m, so that a protective roof 10 has a length of 3 to 5 m.
- the height of the protective roof 10 above the substrate 20 is for example 1.2 m.
- the lane 4 may have a width of 1 to 1.4 m, or even wider.
- FIG. 1b it can be seen from FIG. 1b that a number of retractable protective roofs 10, which remain on the vine 1 in the retracted state (bold line 13) and are extended in the event of a late frost or hail (dashed line), have been stationarily arranged on a vine trestle 3 12).
- the protective roofs 10 arranged next to each other on the same pole 5 in the extended state cover the floor plan 16 of the vine substantially completely.
- at least part of the ground plan 16 may also be roofed over.
- preferred embodiment of the protective roof 10 remains in the assembly 11 and a narrow, the width of the post corresponding, uncovered strip of the floor plan 16, which, however, is negligibly small.
- a protective roof 10 can also be "only" in the upper rich of vines 2 lie.
- at least part of the floor plan preferably substantially the entire floor plan taken by the vines 1, is roofed by a projecting roof surface 17.
- Figure lc shows schematically the conditions in a typical late frost constellation, with clear night sky, symbolized by the drawn in the figure moon.
- the substrate 20 has in the evening a temperature of about 0 ° C, perhaps from 5 to 10 ° C or higher, for the relief of the figure omitted vines 2 ( Figures la and lb) a seasonal temperature in which the vines 2 expel kick off.
- the substrate 20 radiates heat radiation according to the law of Stefan Boltzmann, with the fourth power of the temperature difference to the temperature of its surroundings. Thanks to the clear night the environment is the universe, ie the temperature of the environment is at absolute zero. Accordingly, the heat loss of the substrate 20, and thus the temperature drop in the substrate 20, by the symbolized by the arrows 21 réellestrah ⁇ ment into space is massive, as at night, the heat loss can not be compensated by the sun. The layer of air above the ground 20 is too dense to effectively form a warmer environment to the universe. The temperature of the substrate 20 now drops below 0 ° C. in a few hours, for example to -5 ° C. or -10 ° C.
- An extended protective roof 10 for the sake of simplicity again as shown in FIG. 1b by the dashed line 12, now represents in the area of the floor plan 16 of the vine 1 (FIG. 1b) an environment for the substrate 20 which lies opposite that above the vine Space, ultimately the universe, is much warmer, for example, more than - 2 ° C or 0 ° C, or more than 0 ° C.
- the heat radiation of the substrate 20, symbolized by the arrows 22, in the region of the ground plan 16 (or the covered area if the vine is only partially roofed) is reduced such that the soil and thus the vine 2 growing above it (FIG. no longer critically cools and essentially avoids frost damage.
- the extended protective roof 10 basically produces the same effect as a night cloud cover - according to the invention the late frost does not occur in the area of the roofing or is decisively softened.
- a summary of a method for preventing hail or late frost damage to vines in which the vine is covered from the environment, wherein at or at a grapevine frame a retractable canopy 10,26,27,70 or a number of shelters 10,26,27,70 are stationary ordered, the canopies 10,26,27,70 remain in the vine in retracted state and in the Case of a late frost or hail be extended such that at least a portion of the floor plan 16, preferably substantially the entire floor plan 16, which occupies the vine 1 is roofed by a cantilevered roof surface 17.
- a method results in which the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70 is arranged on a pre-existing vine skeleton 3.
- FIG. 2 a shows a cross section through a preferred embodiment of the arrangement 11 of FIG.
- the cross section lies in a vertical plane between two posts 5 behind one another according to FIG. 1 a, one of the posts 5 is shown in dashed lines. Accordingly, a left canopy 26 and a right canopy 27 are shown in the extended state, which together form the assembly 11, which rests on the wires 6 and is fixed by, for example, tabs 28 thereto.
- Each canopy 26,27 has a flexible, low or non-stretchable gas-tight envelope 29, which has been filled via a gas delivery line 24 operable with a gas, preferably ambient air, and is maintained at an operating pressure exceeding the ambient pressure, preferably between 10th and 100 mbar, more preferably in the range of 30 to 50 mbar.
- a gas preferably ambient air
- the sheath 29 has under operating pressure constrictions 30, which divide them into structural chambers 31 to 34, wherein the skilled person can provide more or less structural chambers in a specific case, depending on the dimensions of the roof to be designed or on the basis of other considerations.
- the structure chambers 31 to 34 result in a board-like, flat contour of the protective roofs 26, 27. It can be seen that the protective roof 26,27 has a flexible sheath (29), which is divided under operating pressure by constrictions (30) in structural chambers (31 to 34).
- the constrictions 30 are formed by webs 35, which are formed from the material of the casing or a similar, little or not flexible material, with here distributed in the webs, only schematically illustrated openings 36, which gas exchange from a structural chamber 31st allow 34 to another of the structural chambers 31 to 34.
- the gas trapped in the structural chambers 31 to 34 can thus circulate between the structural chambers 31 to 34.
- Mechanical fasteners 37 connect the two shelters 26,27 with each other and keep them in a plane.
- the arrangement 11 is balanced with respect to the framework 3 (FIGS. 1a and 1b) or with respect to the wires 6 carrying it (or in the case of another carrier arrangement).
- an extended protective roof 26, 27 is similar to an air mattress and forms a protruding, flat and plate-shaped roof 17 over the vine 2 (FIG. 1b).
- a protective roof 26, 27 is preferably elongate and that structural chambers (31 to 34) are arranged lengthwise and parallel to one another.
- a rigid, here designed as a flat bar 39 Holm is arranged, as well as a same, again designed as a flat bar 40 spar on the outer wall 41 of the inner Structural chamber 34, ie on the inner side 15 of the protective roof 26,27.
- the flat bars 39,40 and the spars over the entire length of the lying at the edge of the shelters 26,27 structural chambers 31,34.
- the flat bars 39,40 and the spars are part of an arrangement for retracting the canopy. Between the flat bars 39,40 extends a schematically indicated tension element 42, via which the flat bars 39,40 and the spars can be pulled against each other.
- the tension member 42 is thus also part of an arrangement for retracting the canopy.
- the arrangement for retracting the protective roof 10,26,27,70 further comprises a spar which is arranged on one side of the protective roof 10,26,27,70 and on the outer wall of an outermost structural chamber 31,34, preferably over its entire length, rests, and wherein the tension element is operatively connected to the spar.
- the tension element 42 acts on both flat bars 39,40, so that the tension element pulls against each other, so on both sides 14,15 of the protective roof 26,27 acts (although, however, the inner flat bar 40 on the frame. 3 is set so that only the outer flat bar 39 can move).
- the tension element can interact only with the outer flat bar 39 and be fixed directly to the frame 3. Then the arrangement for retracting the protective roof acts only on one of the sides of the protective roof.
- the arrangement for drawing in the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70 on at least one of the sides preferably acts on two opposite sides of the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70, with a direction of action transversely to the latter at least one side into the roof 10,26,27,70 inside.
- the arrangement for retracting the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70 has a tension element 42 which is at least partially filled by structural chambers 31 to 34 (ie between the extended state according to FIG. 2 a and the retracted state according to FIG. 2b) acts on at least one side, preferably one longitudinal side of the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70 and exerts this tension in the direction of the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70.
- a tension element 42 which is at least partially filled by structural chambers 31 to 34 (ie between the extended state according to FIG. 2 a and the retracted state according to FIG. 2b) acts on at least one side, preferably one longitudinal side of the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70 and exerts this tension in the direction of the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70.
- a tension element 42 which is at least partially filled by structural chambers 31 to 34 (ie between the extended state according to FIG. 2 a and the retracted state according to FIG. 2b) acts on at least one side, preferably one longitudinal side of the protective roof 10, 26, 27, 70 and exerts this tension in the direction
- a propeller-driven blower 45 has the advantage that the operating pressure can be easily adjusted via the propeller speed, so that additional ambient air is promoted, as long as the protective roof 26,27 extends due to the build-up operating pressure and, if this is extended, the propeller continues to run Operating pressure maintains without further promotion. In the event of a leak or slow pressure loss, the propeller, which is always running, easily recycles the required ambient air; a separate pressure control for the protective roof 26, 27 is not required.
- a propeller-driven blower 45 has the advantage that the protective roof can be retracted via the flat bars 39 and the tension members 42 under an operating pressure above ambient pressure, since air displaced from the structural chambers 31 to 34 is returned against the conveying direction of the running propeller 47 can flow into the environment.
- the direction of flow and counterflow are symbolized by the double arrow 68.
- a gas pump such as a propeller-driven blower 45 has the advantage that simply in its heating means, here only a schematically indicated heating coil 47 'can be provided to heat the conveyed into the structure of chambers 31 to 34 gas.
- a heating coil 47 ' may for example be connected to the same power source as the motor 46. Then, the temperature difference between the substrate 20 and the canopy 10 (see Figure 1c) is reliably maintained at an allowable value, so that the vines are properly protected. The air must be heated by the heating means only slightly above the freezing point to achieve this effect.
- a pressure relief valve can be provided that at slightly increased operating pressure a small amount of the compressed gas can escape from the canopies - so that when setting the gas pump for this increased operating pressure, a steady circulation of heated air takes place through the canopies, without However, not increased operating pressure. For example, it is thus possible to provide a first operating pressure in which the protective roof has been deployed in an operable manner and the overlay pressure valves are closed.
- second operating pressure can be provided, in which the pressure relief valves open, so that while maintaining the second operating pressure a slow flow of air through the shelters 26,27 flows, namely from the gas line 24 to the pressure relief valves, which are then preferably arranged opposite the mouths of the gas line 24 at another end of the shelters 26,27.
- This slow flow of air can be heated by the heating means 47 ', so that a protective roof 26,27 forms an effective, above freezing point environment for the substrate 20, even with the hardest late frost.
- the means for generating pressure have a gas pump operatively connected to the structure chambers (31 to 34), which maintains the operating pressure under both flow directions during operation and is preferably designed as a blower (45).
- the gas pump preferably has heating means in order to heat the gas conveyed into the structure chambers (31 to 34) and particularly preferably provides a pressure relief valve which opens at a second operating pressure above a first operable operating pressure and thus allows a preferred heated gas flow through shelters 26,27 therethrough.
- Figure 2b again shows in cross-section the assembly 11 of Figure 2a in the retracted state, i. the structural chambers 31 to 34 are substantially emptied (here by the fan 45 counter to the conveying direction of the running propeller 47, see the double arrow 68) to the outside world so that the protective roofs 26, 27 are completely retracted and each one compact block with minimal cross-section that neither shadows the vine nor disturbs the grooming and harvesting machines.
- the structural chambers 31 to 34 are filled again with a gas via the lines 24 until they again assume the position according to FIG. 2a.
- FIG. 3a shows a further arrangement 49 of retractable protective roofs from a view from above, wherein the vines 1 (FIG. 2a) are concealed, the wires 6 are partially visible and the posts 5 are completely visible. Shown is the arrangement 11 of Figure 2a, and others, in the series the vines 2 ( Figures la and lb) subsequent, the same as the assembly 11 constructed arrangements 11 * and 11 **.
- the canopies 26, 27, 26 *, 27 * and 26 **, 27 * * are elongated, with the structure chambers 31 to 34, 31 * to 34 * and 31 ** to 34 ** themselves extend along their length and are formed parallel to each other.
- Leads 50 connect the canopies 26, 27, 26 *, 27 * and 26 **, 27 ** together so that a group of shelters (or assemblies 11) can be filled or emptied of gas via a predetermined canopy, in which case preferably, only this predetermined protective roof is connected to a fan 45 (FIG. 2a) via a gas delivery line 24 (FIG. 2a) which is not visible in FIG. 3a.
- the result is an arrangement in which a plurality of shelters 26, 26 * and 26 ** or 27, 27 * and 27 ** in succession, are arranged such that their inner longitudinal sides lie substantially in a straight line, wherein the canopies ( 10, 26, 27, 70) are preferably connected to one another via a gas line (50).
- Such an arrangement 49 allows to protect large and largest wine growing areas according to the invention, since the arrangement 49 can basically be constructed with any length.
- FIG. 3b shows the arrangement 49 of FIG. 3a with the arrangements 11, 11 * and 11 * * in the retracted state, after the flat bars 39, 39 * and 39 ** have been pulled against the stationary flat bars 40, 40 * and 40 * via the tension elements 42. * moved, and thus the structure chambers have been emptied 31 to 34, 31 * to 34 * and 31 ** to 34 **.
- FIG. 4a shows a horizontal section through the protective roof 26 in the plane AA of FIG. 2a with a first embodiment of the tension members 42 of FIG. 2a. It can be seen that the flat bars 39 and 40, and two flexible tension members formed as cable sections (or else cords or thin wires) 51,52, each forming a tension element 42 of Figure 2a.
- the cable sections 51, 52 are fixed by fixing elements 53, 54 on the flat bar 39 here, extend transversely through the structure chambers 31 to 34 to the flat bar 40, through which they extend. through where they run on the outside via deflecting elements, for example guide rollers 55 and are connected via a coil spring 56 with each other.
- the tension elements 51,52 are formed on the tension spring 56 at least partially resilient.
- the protective roof 26 is correspondingly operatively extended, wherein the coil spring 56 is pulled apart against its force.
- the tensile force of the spiral spring 56 is sufficient to push the flat bar 40 against the flat bar 39 via the cable sections 51, 52 against the pressure still present in the structural chambers 31 to pull: the canopy 26 retracts.
- the spiral spring 56 thus forms a drive for the cable sections 51, 52 or the tension elements of the protective roof 26.
- the operating pressure during retraction i.e., in a partial fill state of the structural chambers 31-34 is now reduced only slowly, but so far that the spring 55 can continue to retract the canopy 26 at the current operating pressure. Then, the structural chambers 31 to 34 always remain in one plane. If the pressure drop was too great, the outer side 14 would not only move inwards, but could also sag downwards, with the result that the protective roof 26 does not retract correctly and completely, but jams, for example, in front of its rest position.
- the tension members or cable sections 51 insofar as they run through the walls of the structural chambers 31 to 34, for example, must be sealed off from these walls.
- the person skilled in the art can do this in a suitable manner, for example by a cable section running in an envelope which is connected to the walls of the structural chambers in such a way that, as it were, through the roof 26, 27 a tunnel passes for the tension member. Accordingly, the passage of tension members through the shelters 26,27 indicated only schematically in all figures, wherein a suitable implementation of the skilled person is assumed.
- FIG. 4b shows the protective roof 26 in the correctly retracted state.
- the spring 55 is still slightly tensioned and holds on the cable sections 51,52 the flat bar 40 and thus the canopy even in its retracted rest position.
- the structural chambers 31 to 34 are emptied and pressure-free, ie there is preferably ambient pressure in them.
- the order the spring 55 on the outside of the canopy 26 (and not transverse to the inside) allows to provide a long spring, which is stretched in operation by only part of its length, so that in the retracted and in the extended state of the canopy 26, the optimum spring force is available.
- the protective cover 26 can be extended by establishing operating pressure via the line 24 (FIGS. 2a and 2b) and thus filling the structural chambers 31 to 34, which thereby expand against the pull of the spring 55.
- the tension member may be at least partially formed rubber-elastic, so that the tension spring is eliminated.
- a hybrid form is possible in which the tension element has a tension spring and at the same time is designed to be rubber-elastic.
- the tension member is preferably at least partially rubber-elastic or resilient and is arranged on the canopy that it remains taut in the retracted state elastic or resiliently stretched by the extension of the canopy and its tension on one side of the protective roof (here the flat bar 39 is pulled against the flat bar 40 fixed to the framework 3, see FIG.
- the tension member is constructed only from one of the cable sections 51 or 52 in conjunction with the tension spring 56.
- Such an arrangement corresponds to an L-configuration of the tension member, wherein over the length of the protective roof several such tension members can be provided.
- the tension member 42 in a section along one side, preferably one longitudinal side 14 or 15 of the protective roof 26 along and in a further section transverse to the canopy towards its opposite side 15th or 14 runs.
- the tension element is U-shaped, with a middle section (tension spring 56) of a longitudinal side 15 of the protective element. along the roof 26 and with two outer sections 51,52 transverse to the canopy 26 to the opposite side 14 extends.
- Figure 5a shows a horizontal section through the extended canopy 26 in the plane AA of Figure 2a with a second embodiment of the tension members 42 of Figure 2a.
- the length of the protective roof 26 is vertical and the width is horizontal.
- Two cables 61 and 62 which meander between the outer flat bar 39 and the inner flat bar 40, are visible, are fixed at one end to the flat bar 40 via fixing elements 63, 64 and at the other end to a schematic shown double winch 65 are wound.
- deflecting elements designed as deflecting rollers 55 are preferably provided, on which the cables 61, 62 run, so that they have sections 66 running transversely to the protective roof 26 and sections 67 running along the sides of the protective roof 26.
- the tension element 42 extends in a meandering manner along the length of the protective roof 26, with sections 67 which alternately extend along the longitudinal sides 14, 15 of the protective roof 26 and sections 66 which run transversely thereto.
- the above-described design of the tension members can of course be combined as desired, as well as the properties of the ropes (not stretchable to rubber-elastic, elastic tension) and the drive, for example via a winch.
- the protective roofs shown in the figures are usually much longer than can be seen in the figures, for example, the length may be 10 times or 20 times the width.
- a protective roof can also be very short, for example square.
- the protective roof 26 retracts, since the transverse active sections 67 of the ropes 61, 62 shorten. This, in turn, is against the operating pressure, which, however, can be kept constant at its nominal value in the illustrated embodiment by either venting a relief valve in one of the structural chambers 31-34 filling gas during retraction, or by preferably a blower 45 (FIGS. 2a and 2b ) is used, since even with held at unchanged speed propeller 47, the filling gas counter to the conveying direction of the fan ses 45 can flow through this into the environment.
- the conveying direction and outflow direction through the fan 45 are, as mentioned above, represented by the double arrows 68 in Figures 2a and 2b.
- the double winch 65 can be arranged on the inner flat bar 40 or else on the framework 3 (FIG. 1 a) or on a separate support which is suitably positioned, for example, in the vine 2 (FIG.
- FIG. 5b shows the protective roof 26 with the second embodiment of the tension members 42 in the retracted state.
- the ropes 61, 62 are wound onto the cable drum 65, and the structural chambers 31 to 34 are emptied through the blower 45 through the lines 24 which have been omitted for the purpose of relieving the figure.
- the tension member 42 at least one cable 61,62 and the arrangement for retracting the canopy drive with a winch 65 for retracting or extending the rope 61,62, such that the tension member 42 in each part - Fill state of the structure chambers 31 to 34 can be clamped against the current operating pressure and pulled against the operating pressure or extended with this.
- a retractable, pneumatic shelter for vines the variable volume by deformation, filled with a gas and again emptied structural chambers, means for generating pressure in the structural chambers and an arrangement for retracting the protective roof, wherein the Pressure generating means are arranged to maintain a predetermined operating pressure exceeding the ambient pressure, at least in the partial filling state of structural chambers, and the arrangement for retracting the protective roof is formed in order to reduce the volume of the structural chambers against the operating pressure maintained.
- FIG. 6a shows a view of the extended canopy 26 of FIG. 2a with a third embodiment of the tension members 42 of FIG. 2a.
- the tension element 42 extends inside the protective roof, it is arranged outside here.
- Two further loops 80, 81 are shown in dashed lines, of the same design as the loops 75, 76 and stretched over the underside 83 of the protective roof 26, wherein they likewise overlap.
- Figure 6b shows a view of the longitudinal side 15 of the protective roof 26, it can be seen the flat bar 40 with the bolts 78, and the hinged into the bolt 78 loops 75,76 and 80,81.
- the distance between the bolts 78 preferably corresponds approximately to the width of the protective roof 26.
- the protective roof 26 may be formed much longer, so that then the number of bolts 78 is correspondingly larger.
- Each loop 75, 76 and 80, 81 is not hooked on adjacent but more distant pins 78, which makes it possible to make the loops larger, so that the extension or retraction of the protective roof 26 stretches or loosens the loops less in comparison to a smaller loop Shortened.
- the tension of the loops can be kept for a safe resting state of the protective roof 26, without it being excessively increased during extension. In other words, it is so that the loop must be large enough to have sufficient tension in the retracted state of the canopy, but sufficient loops must be provided to load the flat bars 39,40 reasonably evenly, so that they do not solid, but can be easily formed.
- the tension element has at least one rubber-elastic or elastically formed loop, which is stretched over the protective roof from one side 14 to the opposite side 15 and is mounted on each side at spaced apart, here designed as a bolt holding elements.
- the tension element on several loops 75,76 and 80,81 which are alternately stretched over the top 77 and the bottom 83 of the protective cover 26 and overlap over the length of the protective cover 26.
- the means for generating pressure are designed to continuously increase the operating pressure for extending the protective roof in a partial state of filling of the structural chambers so that the protective roof extends further or is continuously reduced to a value above ambient pressure, that the protective roof continues to retract due to the rubber-elastic or elastic tension of the tension element.
- FIG. 7 shows a further embodiment of a protective roof 90 according to the invention in the extended state.
- the structural chambers 91 to 94 have different heights, with the heights steadily decreasing in a direction transverse thereto, in this case from the inner side 14 to the outer side 15.
- the inner flat bar 95 is correspondingly wider than the outer flat bar 96.
- This structure has the advantage that it can carry a greater load than a structure with the same height of the structure chambers 31 to 34 ( Figure 2a), for example, a hail layer.
- Figure 2a for example, a hail layer.
- it has the advantage that despite the constrictions 77 to 79 falling hail on the roof or also transported by the wind dirt and dust more easily reaches the outside 15 and falls from there from the canopy 70.
- the result is a preferred embodiment in which the structural chambers 91 to 94 have different heights, and wherein preferably the heights of the structural chambers 91 to 94 decrease steadily in a direction transverse to this direction.
- the flat bars are not arranged outside the structural chambers, but in their interior. It should be noted that the person skilled in the art can make the structural chambers suitably dense with respect to the spars and tension elements running in their interior. In the figures, the corresponding sealing points are indicated only schematically.
- a retractable pneumatic protective roof is characterized in that it has variable volume, with a gas inflatable and re-emptying structural chambers), means for generating pressure in the structural chambers and an arrangement for retracting the protective roof, wherein the means for generating Pressure are formed, at least partially fill state of structural chambers to maintain a predetermined, the ambient pressure exceeding operating pressure and the arrangement for retracting the protective roof is designed to reduce the volume of the structural chambers against the upright, above the ambient pressure current operating pressure.
