ABSTRACT:
A metered shade which provides shelter/shade for a specified amount of time before the shade is removed. Through the use of a meter which is activated by either currency of a "credit card" arrangement, the shade is provided for a chosen length of time. The mechanism is activated so that shade is provided for an area such as an automobile parking space. A further enhancement of the invention deactivates the shading process when either the time has lapsed or the vehicle vacates the spot.
