Abstract:
1. An awning type solar protection device equipped with an electrical power production system, the device including a flexible panel, at least one photovoltaic panel arranged on the outer face of the flexible panel, a furling tube on which the flexible panel is rolled and a system for tensioning the flexible panel during its deployment or its furling, wherein the proximal edge of the flexible panel is fixed to the furling tube with an adhesive layer and is configured to form around said furling tube a rolled-up portion that cannot be unrolled when the flexible panel is in its fully deployed state, electrical connection device being arranged in the interior of the furling tube and passing through said furling tube in the portion of the flexible panel that cannot be unrolled, said electrical connection means being hooked up to the at least one photovoltaic panel at the proximal edge of the flexible panel wherein said device includes an electrical transfer system comprising a movable part fixed to one of the ends of the furling tube, a fixed part and sliding contact device configured for transferring electrical power from the movable part to the fixed part, the electrical connection device being hooked up to the movable part, and wherein said device includes a motor for driving the furling tube in rotation having a proximal end, and the movable part of the electrical transfer system includes a central opening to receive the proximal end of the motor therethrough.
