Abstract

The invention relates to a multifunctional decorative element. It is formed by a support structure and at least two tension rods, which are inserted into corresponding receptacles of the support structure. The at least two tension rods are connected to a sheet element and tenter it in a planar manner after being inserted into the corresponding receptacles of the support structure. In this way, a multifunctional decorative element is provided which can be transported in a dismantled and thus compact form and can be set up at the place of use. Possible areas of application are shading from the sun, providing privacy, or just providing a decorative function.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . A multifunctional decorative element, formed by a support structure, at least two tension rods, two spaced-apart receptacles, and a sheet element, wherein
 the receptacles are formed as part of the support structure and/or are arranged thereon,   the at least two tension rods are longer than the spacing between the two spaced-apart receptacles,   the receptacles are formed to receive the at least two tension rods,   the at least two tension rods are connected to the sheet element, and   the sheet element is tentered in a planar manner by the arrangement of the at least two tension rods in the receptacles.   
     
     
         2 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the receptacles are each formed at at least one angle relative to the support structure, which specifies the orientation of the at least two tension rods.   
     
     
         3 . The decorative element according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein   the at least one angle is adjustable.   
     
     
         4 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the receptacles are movably mounted.   
     
     
         5 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the length of the at least two tension rods determines the spreading of the sheet element.   
     
     
         6 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the support structure forms a hyperbolic axis for the decorative element and/or the sheet element forms a hyperbolic paraboloid surface between the receptacles and the highest points of two tension rods.   
     
     
         7 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the sheet element is to be guyed against the receptacles, in particular by means of at least one rope and one corresponding tension screw and/or by means of at least one rope and one corresponding eye, wherein the at least one rope is part of the sheet element.   
     
     
         8 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the sheet element is formed by a textile material, in particular canvas, or a film.   
     
     
         9 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the sheet element is fastened to the at least two tension rods and/or the support structure by means of a hook-and-loop fastener and/or snap fasteners.   
     
     
         10 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the sheet element is designed to be reinforced
 by a cap for encasing at least one of the receptacles, 
 by bushings for the at least two tension rods and/or the support structure, and/or 
 in the region of fastening regions and/or connection regions. 
   
     
     
         11 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   the support structure is a rod, a preformed rod, a tube, a preformed tube, an assembled rod, an assembled preformed rod, an assembled tube, an assembled preformed tube, and/or a structure formed by at least two rods and/or tubes.   
     
     
         12 . The decorative element according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein   a tension rod is formed by a fiberglass reinforced plastics material.
