Abstract

See full text

A bow system is provided for coupling between a pair of arm members of an awning structure in a mounting region located beneath an area corresponding to a leading portion of an awning sheet thereof. A bow member of the bow system is aligned generally parallel to a lead member of the awning structure and is configured to flex upwardly to elevate a portion of the awning sheet when the awning is in a deployed configuration to prevent the accumulation of water or debris thereon. The bow member may automatically flex as the awning structure moves from a retracted configuration toward the deployed configuration. Other prop devices and methods of preventing the accumulation of water or debris on awning structures using bow systems and other prop devices are also provided.
