WIND PROTECTION AND/OR SUN PROTECTION DEVICE AND/OR PRIVACY SCREEN
The invention concernes a wind protection, sun protection device and/or privacy screen with a rod structure comprising bars, shaped-section rods or tubes, plus fabric. The rod structure is made up of three main struts (1, 2, 3) which can be secured at an angle to each other and which can be braced with respect to each other by reinforcing struts (4, 5). The main struts (1, 2, 3) and reinforcing struts (4, 5) are enveloped or contacted by the fabric (7). Each reinforcing strut (4, 5), which may optionally be bent, is preferably secured in a plane defined by two of the main struts (1, 2, 3, 2), the two planes thus formed preferably being rotatable relative to each other about the central main strut (2), and each reinforcing strut (4, 5) being optionally articulated at the middle of a lateral main strut (1, 3). When the device is opened out, the joint between the reinforcing struts (4, 5) can be secured approximately in the middle of the central main strut (2) (Fig. 4, 5).
