ABSTRACT:
The invention concerns a device comprising a screen (2) presenting flexible side edges (4) having an overthickness (4′), this screen (2) being equipped with one cable or with several juxtaposed cables (21), incompressible in their lengthwise direction, extending parallel to the side edges (4) of the screen so as to enable the application of a thrust force on these side edges (4) in their longitudinal direction to move the screen to its closed position, this cable or cables (21) being located in the neutral surface (24) of said edges (4) formed on bending of the latter and being fixed with respect to the screen (2) in an unremovable way; the overthickness comprises a flexible strip (8) made of an elastic material, wherein the cable or cables (21) are incorporated, as well as two notched belts (9, 10) being located the one with respect to the other on each of both sides of the curtain (2).
