Claims16
A canopy for selectively covering an area, comprising:
- at least two beams which span the area;
- at least first and second cross beams which are independently displaceable along the beams;
- a cloth which is attached to the first cross beam;
- a drive configured to displace the cross beams with the cloth attached thereto along the beams;
- and
- an additional cloth which is attached to the second cross beam so that the additional cloth is independently movable with respect to the cloth to thereby allow the additional cloth to selectively overlap the cloth and thereby define, in an overlapping disposition of the cloth and the additional cloth, a space enclosed therebetween.
