Abstract

A braking system for holding a screen, wherein either on the holder or the screen an elongate base is provided, the elongated base in contact with a first wheel mounted on the second one of the holder or the screen, so that when the base is moved relative to the first wheel, the first wheel is rotated, and a brake module including a second wheel and a third wheel, the first wheel always being in contact with either the second wheel or the third wheel, wherein the second wheel contacts with an adjustable friction brake, and the brake module being rotatable relative to either the screen or the holder, wherein the second wheel can be adjusted to be in contact with the first wheel, to a position not in contact with the first wheel, but instead the third wheel being in contact with the first wheel or vice versa.

Claims8

Dependent claims

A braking system for holding a screen in a desired position relative to a fixed holder wherein the braking system comprises:

a first wheel configured to be mounted on one of the fixed holder or the screen,
an elongated base to be provided on the other of the fixed holder or the screen, with the elongated base in contact with the first wheel, so that when the elongated base is moved relative to the first wheel, the first wheel is rotated, and
a braking module comprising a second wheel and a third wheel, wherein the second wheel is arranged in contact with an adjustable friction brake,
wherein the first wheel is configured to always be in contact with either the second wheel or the third wheel of the braking module,
wherein the braking module is rotatably arranged relative to either the screen or the holder to be rotated between a position where the second wheel of the braking module is in contact with the first wheel and a position where the third wheel of the braking module is in contact with the first wheel.
