2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional water drop catching tool for such an umbrella, there is, for example, the one described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. 56-69018. However, the structure is generally relatively complicated. The efficiency of catching water droplets is low just by attaching it, and there is a high risk of inadvertent leakage of trapped water droplets to the outside.
It was not very practical because it was troublesome to attach and detach, and it was not excellent in durability.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the problems of the prior art, has a simple structure, is excellent in capturing water droplets, and has the possibility of inadvertent leakage of captured water droplets to the outside. It is an object of the present invention to provide an umbrella water droplet capturing tool which is suitable for use because it is as simple as possible and has excellent durability, as well as an umbrella provided with the same.

[0004]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention employs the following means as a constitution of a water droplet catching tool of an umbrella.

[0005] First, as a first means, a screw is provided on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical neck at the tip of the container, and is fitted and attached to the outer peripheral surface of the screw rod at the tip of the central rod projecting from the umbrella, and adheres to the umbrella. A spherical container for containing water droplets, and a peripheral wall surface expanding upward from the bottom to the outside, and attached to an outer peripheral surface of a neck portion of the container to receive droplets of water droplets attached to an umbrella cloth. It is provided with a receiving member for guiding it to a water drop inlet provided near the peripheral wall surface of the bottom surface, and a water drop introducing pipe connecting the water drop introducing port of the receiving member and the inside of the storage container. The distal end portion is characterized by being inclined obliquely downward so as to protrude to near the center of the spherical container. The water droplets adhering to the umbrella cloth, when the umbrella is closed and the stone pokes down, are transmitted through the umbrella cloth and dropped on the receiving member that expands upward from the bottom to the outside. It is guided by a water drop introduction port provided on the bottom surface near the peripheral wall surface, and is housed in a storage container via a water drop introduction pipe. The tip of the water drop introduction pipe is inclined downward and protrudes almost to the center of the spherical storage container. Even so, careless leakage of the captured and stored water droplets to the outside is prevented as much as possible.

[0006] As a second means, when a screw rod is not attached to the tip of the umbrella protruding from the center rod, that is, the stone butt,
A water droplet catching tool including the receiving member, the water droplet introducing pipe, and the storage container is mounted via a mounting screw member. That is, in this case, a screw member is bonded to the outer peripheral surface of the center rod protruding distal end portion of the umbrella by bonding or the like, and the screw portion provided on the cylindrical inner peripheral surface of the distal end is fitted to the outer peripheral surface of this screw member. And attach the container. Other configurations such as a receiving member, a connection structure of the water drop introducing pipe to the storage container, and the like are the same as those of the first means.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 relates to the first embodiment. 1
Is a water droplet storage container having a cylindrical neck 2 at the tip of a spherical container, and a female screw portion is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the neck portion 2. It is fitted and attached to the external thread on the outer peripheral surface of the attached screw rod K2. The outer peripheral surface of the neck portion 2 expands upward and to the outside to receive the dripping of water droplets attached to the umbrella cloth K3. The receiving member 3 is fitted, and the water drop dropped on the receiving member 3 is guided to a water drop introduction port 4 provided on the bottom surface near the peripheral wall surface. The water inlet 4 and the inside of the spherical container 1 are connected via a water inlet pipe 5, and the tip of the water inlet pipe 5 is inclined obliquely downward and inside the spherical container 1. Are formed so as to protrude almost to the center. 6 in the figure
Is a stone bump attached to the bottom of the container 1, and 7 is an O-ring or packing that seals the fitting surface between the neck 2 and the screw rod K2.

When the water droplet catching tool according to the above embodiment is attached to the outer surface of the tip of the protruding center rod K1 to close the rain-covered umbrella and stand upright, the water droplets adhering to the umbrella cloth K3 are: Since the umbrella cloth K3 has been subjected to waterproofing, it is transmitted through the umbrella cloth K3 and dripped into the receiving member 3 located below, and all of the umbrella cloth K3 is properly received and caught. To be housed. In order to open the umbrella for the next use after storing the water droplets,
Even when the ram is raised, the tip of the water drop introducing pipe 5 is inclined obliquely downward and protrudes to near the center of the spherical storage container 1 and is located above the storage water level. (Normally, it is rare that water droplets are completely stored in the storage container 1 in a single use.) There is almost no fear that the captured and stored water droplets may be inadvertently leaked to the outside. If the umbrella is to be opened vertically with the umbrella upside down with the umbrella at hand in a state where the water drops are completely contained in the storage container 1, the tip of the water drop introduction pipe 5 is set at the storage water level. Some of the water droplets will be leaked to the outside of the umbrella until it is located above the umbrella. It is usual to open the umbrella horizontally or diagonally, so the above-mentioned inconvenience is extremely rare. And if you open the umbrella and insert it, even if water leaks, the presence of the umbrella cloth will not wet your hands. When discharging the water droplets captured and stored in the storage container 1 to the outside, the screw fitting of the neck portion 2 is removed from the center rod K1 and the storage container 1 is turned upside down to discharge the water droplets from the opening of the neck portion 2.

FIG. 2 relates to a second embodiment, which is used for the umbrella in which the screw rod K2 is not attached to the projecting tip of the center rod K1 of the umbrella. In this case, the screw member 8 is joined to the protruding tip of the center rod K1 by bonding or the like, and the female screw provided on the inner peripheral surface of the neck 2A at the tip of the container is fitted to the outer peripheral surface of the screw member 8 to attach the container 1A. . Receiving member 3A, water drop inlet 4
A, the structure of the waterdrop catching tool such as the waterdrop introduction pipe 5A is the first
This is the same as that of the embodiment. However, in this case, the bottom surface (and, in some cases, the peripheral wall surface) of the receiving member 3A also guides the water droplets that have been dropped downward and spirally inclined toward the inlet 4A near the peripheral wall surface into the storage container 1A. I do it more smoothly. Further, the tip of the water drop introducing pipe 5A also protrudes deeper into the storage container 1A. 6A is a stone butt.

[0011]

Since the present invention has the above-described structure, it solves the above-mentioned disadvantages of the prior art and has the following unique effects.

First, by attaching the water droplet catching tool according to the present invention to the outer surface of the ram of the umbrella, the tip of the umbrella protrudes,
If the umbrella wet in the rain is closed and the stone butt is turned upright, the water droplets that travel down the umbrella cloth are attached to the outer peripheral surface of the neck of the storage container and the peripheral wall expands upward from the bottom to the outside. Naturally and securely received, the water is smoothly guided to the water drop inlet near the peripheral wall on the bottom surface, and is captured and stored in a spherical storage container via a water drop inlet pipe connected therebelow. Therefore, the simple structure has a very good efficiency of capturing and accommodating water droplets attached to the umbrella, eliminating the inconvenience of attaching and detaching the cover of a plastic bag or the like and eliminating the inconvenience of wet hands at that time. Can be prevented from falling and scattering to the surroundings.

Secondly, a water drop introduction pipe connecting the water drop introduction port of the receiving member and the storage container is formed so that the tip thereof is inclined obliquely downward so as to protrude to near the center of the spherical storage container. Therefore, depending on the positional relationship between the water level of the water droplets in the spherical container and the tip of the projecting water pipe, the umbrella is trapped and stored even if the umbrella is turned sideways, inclined, or turned up after the water droplets are stored. Inadvertent leakage of the water droplets to the outside is prevented as much as possible.

Thirdly, the attachment of the water droplet catching tool to the outer surface of the stone shovel at the tip of the umbrella protruding from the center rod is performed by screw-fitting through a neck provided in the storage container or joining of screw members. As it can be easily attached to and detached from existing umbrellas, it has excellent durability, and there is no risk of being easily detached or damaged by impact, and it is suitable for use without inconvenience of water leakage. It is.
