Patent attributes
A roller awning system is provided for a recreational vehicle having a slider. The system includes a housing for mounting on an outside wall of a recreational vehicle above the slider and a roll of awning is rotatably disposed within the housing and deployable from the topside of the roll in order to establish a pitch between the topside and an extended edge of the slider. This pitch promotes a moisture and debris runoff. A cover is attached to the housing for enclosing the awning roll with the slider in a retracted position and swingable for enabling deployment of the awing as the slider is extended. A wiper is provided and disposed on the leading edge of the cover for sweeping debris from the awning when the awning is rolled during retraction of the slider.
