Telescopic cover with imbricated elements

Abstract

A telescopic cover (10) for areas, such as tennis courts, swimming pools, vehicle bodies or trailers, sheds and the like, comprises a plurality of cover elements (12a, 12b) provided with slidable supporting feet (21, 23 . . . ) on two opposite sides thereof. At one collecting end there are on each lateral side guides with two inclined runways, to allow superimposed disposition of the cover elements in the retracted condition, whilst along the longitudinal runway (along the sides of the area to be covered) the track is single and can consist of any sufficiently flat supporting surface. In the extended condition, each proximal or rear element (12b) rests with one distal or front edge (12b) thereof on the distal element or the one immediately in front (28b), and with a rear edge thereof, through the supporting feet, on the track.
