Abstract
A home-automation equipment includes a concealing device including a screen, a holding device of the screen, a load bar, a motorized drive device and an autonomous electrical energy supply device. The motorized drive device includes an electromechanical actuator making it possible to raise and lower the screen. The supply device includes a battery positioned at the holding device, a first electrical connection element positioned at the load bar and configured to be connected to an external electrical supply source, so as to recharge the battery, and a second electrical connection element positioned at the holding device. The second element cooperates with the first element only when the screen is in a recharging position of the battery, so as to establish an electrical connection between the first element and the battery.
