This invention relates to a retractable and extendable awning and control system for automatically extending and retracting the awning. A front of an awning fabric is attached to a front bar, movably mounted on a wall of a building by retractable arms. A rear of the fabric is unrolled from a roll when the arms move the front bar away from the wall. The awning also features a weather sensor unit on its front bar in wireless communication with an indoor control unit. The weather sensor unit can detect excessive wind, mechanical shocks, sunlight, and rain. In addition, each support bracket on the awning has a screw spindle for adjusting an angle of extension of the awning from the wall with a resilient inner bushing that cushions mechanical shocks to the awning. Adhesive can also be introduced into arm ends after assembly of the arms.
Retractable and extendable sun protection device, including at least one arm support bracket, at least one arm having first and second pivoting arm sections, a front bar, a roller adapted to be mounted for rotation, a fabric cloth for winding about and unwinding from the roller, wherein the first pivoting arm section has a first end pivotally linked to a bearing support and a second end, the second pivoting arm section has a first end pivotally linked to the second end of the first pivoting arm section and a second end pivotally linked to the front bar, wherein the first pivoting arm section and the second pivoting arm section include first, second, third and fourth plug elements, wherein the first, second, third and fourth plug elements are connected to the respective first and second pivoting arm sections by means of an adhesive composition and are each provided with a channel arrangement on a plug-in end that communicates with an opening exposed exteriorly of the first and second pivoting arm sections and wherein the adhesive composition is located in the channel arrangement, said sun protection device further including a control system for moving the sun protection device between retracted and extended positions.
