Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to improvement of folding umbrellas.

Recently, an umbrella that can be reduced to about 20 cm in length has been proposed.

In order to minimize the bulk and overall length of such umbrellas when folded, the grip handle is omitted and a flange is provided at the end of the handle, and the base of the handle is used as a handle when the umbrella is used in a car. .

However, since the handle is a thin metal tube, it is difficult to grip, which is especially inconvenient when it is windy or rainy.

In view of the above-mentioned inconveniences, the present invention provides a novel folding umbrella that satisfies the above-mentioned needs and offers practical convenience by providing a member that serves both as an umbrella storage case and a grip handle at the base end of the handle. It is.

The present invention will be specifically described below based on embodiments shown in the drawings.

In the drawing, the umbrella body 1 is expanded and contracted, and the handle 2 is of a known collapsible telescopic type, and the base end of the handle 2 is provided with a case/handle 3 according to the present invention.

The case/handle 3 is formed by molding a synthetic resin material or by bending and molding a metal plate, decorative plywood, waterproof hard paper, etc. Attach the board 31 that forms a
A pair of case/handle members 33a and 33b are hingedly connected to the tip edges of the gossamer walls 32 and 32, respectively.

The above members 33 a and 33 b are approximately the same as the board 31.
The left and right side walls 34 have a width and a length necessary for the case and the handle. Side walls 3 facing each other are provided on both sides of the left and right side walls 34, 34, respectively.
Opposing side walls 35.5, 35.36, 36.
The tips of 36, 35, and 36 are overlapped with each other, and both gusset walls 32, 32 are erected at right angles to the substrate 31 so that they are flush with the right side wall 34 and left side wall 34 of each member 33a, 33b, The amount of overlap of the side walls 35 and 36 may be increased to form a hollow grip handle 4, or alternatively, the side walls 32 and 32 may be used as a base plate 3.
The folding umbrella storage chamber 5 is formed in both members 33 a and 33 b by aligning them in the same plane as the left and right side walls 34 and 34 of the members 33 a and 33 b, and reducing the amount of overlapping of the side walls 35 and 36. I'm doing everything I can.

Furthermore, a locking means 6 is provided between the overlapping side walls 35 and 36 to maintain the pair of handle members 33a and 33b to the same thickness as the handle and the case.

The locking means 6 includes protrusions 61 protruding from the outer surfaces of both side walls 35, 35 on one handle member 33a, and protrusions 61 protruding from the inner surfaces of both side walls 36, 36 on the other handle member 33b. It is configured by arranging a recess 62 and a case recess 63 side by side, and both side walls 35 of both members 33 a and 33 b.
When the handle 4 is formed by increasing the polymerization amount of 36,
The protrusion 61 and the recess 62 engage and fit together, and both side walls 35.3
When the storage chamber 5 is formed by reducing the polymerization amount of 6, the convex element 6
1 and the recess 63 engage to maintain the shape of the handle and case.

Furthermore, both members 33a and 33b are provided with end walls 37 and 37 on their upper end surfaces, and cutouts 38 and 38 are formed on opposite sides of each of the members to engage approximately half the circumference of the handle 2, so that when used as a handle, , so that the handle 2 is engaged with and held by the two cutout portions 38 and 38.

It goes without saying that the surface of the case/handle 3 may be subjected to surface treatment using plating, paint, or foam paint, if necessary.

However, in the folded state of the folding umbrella of the present invention, both members 33a and 33b are unfolded, and in this state, the umbrella body 1
, reduce the handle 2, and then remove both members 33a.

33 b stand up against each other and the respective side walls 35.35.36
．． By polymerizing the members 36, the umbrella 1 has both members 33a
, 33b, and at this time, the protrusion 61 formed between the side walls 35 and 36 of both members 33a and 33b (7) engages with the recess 63 to maintain the shape of the case. It will be done.

In addition, when using the umbrella, first open both members to unfold the umbrella, then stand the members 33a and 33b again to face each other, and when the umbrella is used, both the gusset walls 32 and 32 are connected to the member 33a.
, 33b' are positioned on the same plane as the left and right side walls 34.34, and the side walls 35.36 are superimposed, so that the notches 38.38 at the upper ends of the members 33a and 33b sandwich the handle 2, and at this time , side walls 3 of both members 33 a and 33 b
The protrusion 61 formed between 5.36 and the recess 62 engages to form the handle 4 and can stably support the umbrella.

As described above, the present invention attaches the substrate 31 to the base end of the handle 2,
A gossamer wall 32, 32 is attached to both side edges of the gossamer wall, and a pair of case/handle members 33a, 33b are hingedly connected to the tip edge of each gossamer wall. The amount of overlap of the side walls 35 and 36 can be adjusted in size to form a hollow grip handle 4 or a storage chamber 5 for the folding umbrella. The entire umbrella body can be stored, the storage style is good, and there is no risk of damaging the umbrella body due to external impact.

Furthermore, when using the umbrella, simply by increasing the amount of polymerization of the side walls, a hollow grip handle can be created that is easy to grip and can stably support the umbrella.

Furthermore, the amount of side wall polymerization can be easily adjusted by simply raising and lowering both the gore walls, and the structure is simple and does not break down, which has remarkable practical effects.
