Awning Development Process and Principle Function
When it comes to awnings, perhaps people are not very familiar with them. In many people’s minds, there will be “guai peng” installed on the windows of old-fashioned buildings, or a piece of canvas is covered on a simple iron shelf to block the sun, also known as an awning.
The awning is a sun shading device that uses the winding method to make the soft material curtains slope downward and the angle between the small plane and the small plane is stretched and retracted within the range of 0°~15°. It is an excellent external sunshade product.
Awning Working Principle
The system uses a motor to drive the aluminum alloy coil to rotate, so that the fabric wound on the reel rises and falls. At the same time, the fabric is tightened by the spring force in the arm support rod. The maximum opening angle of the system is 0~130 degrees, which can be operated by various control methods such as switch, remote control, and wind control.
Awning System Matching: The roll tube is generally 50mm or 80mm in diameter with a grooved round tube.
Awning Fabric Specification: Acrylic fabric (guaranteed 5 years non-fading).
Awning Product Function
The awning has a comprehensive external shading function, which can completely block ultraviolet radiation, reduce indoor temperature and air-conditioning load.
Awnings have energy-saving effects, and awnings are of great significance from the perspective of energy saving and environmental protection.
Awnings have a special anti-ultraviolet function of its sunshade cloth.
Awning Product Category
According to the driving mode: manual, electric, fixed.
The awning is divided into: full box curved arm awning, open curved arm awning, swing arm awning, canopy awning, sunshade.
The Development Process of the Curved Arm Awning
With the development of society and the continuous improvement of people’s living standards, people’s living conditions have also been greatly improved, and various styles of villas are also completed. People have private gardens and private courtyards, so people have a greater demand for shading products with beautiful styles and convenient use, and various awnings have also sprung up in the domestic market.
Crank Awning
Originated in Europe and the United States, it has a history of more than 100 years. Now some economically developed countries such as Europe and the United States use curved arm awnings, which are as popular as air conditioners in Chinese households. It is only in recent years that the curved arm awning has entered the Chinese market. First, some foreign brands are sold in China, and then some domestic companies have also launched our own brands, which has greatly promoted the popularity of awnings.
Electric Articulating Arm Awning
It is mainly composed of tarpaulin, roll, curved arm, awning beam, and power mechanism. The tarpaulin fabric is generally polyester and acrylic fibers, the reels are generally aluminum reels. In order to improve the rigidity of the reels, a few domestic companies such as Guangdong Yunjin have produced reels, and electric awnings can produce larger awnings. The crank arm and the canopy beam are generally made of aluminum alloy profiles, and the power mechanism can be described as a pure electric tubular motor, with a manual tubular motor and a special reduction box for opening and closing the awning. Inside the crank arm is a large tension spring that unfolds the awning. Its working principle is: one side of the awning cloth is connected to the reel and rolled on the reel, and the other side is connected to the canopy beam, the curved arm pushes the canopy beam outward through the pulling force of the large tension spring, and the power mechanism drives the reel to rotate forward and reverse. The awning can be opened and retracted. The awning can also be opened and closed by remote control.
In order to make users use the crank-arm awning more safely and conveniently, some awning companies have applied some new technologies to the crank-arm awning, such as wind, light, rain weather sensors, in the environment When the wind is greater than the awning can withstand, the wind sensor system will automatically play the role of retracting the awning; when the sun goes down, the light sensor system will control the curved arm awning to retract automatically; In rainy days, users do not have to worry about the awning being damaged by heavy rain. The rain sensing system will automatically retract the curved arm awning, and the shading eliminates the user’s worries about damaging the awning in bad weather.
The canopy width of the curved arm awning can generally be about 2 meters to 6 meters, and the unfolded width of the awning is generally 1.5 meters to 3 meters. There are a few companies that can achieve 3.5 meters or even 4 meters, such as a boxed retractable awning independently developed by Guangdong Yunjin.
The awning is not only used for shade during the day, it can also be used at night. After night falls, a family or a few friends invite a few friends to have tea and drinks in their own courtyard. At this time, if the awning is unfolded, it can create a warm and romantic atmosphere.
