Description

La présente invention a pour objet un ustensile portatif formant parapluie, parasol, ombrelle ou analogue.The present invention relates to a portable utensil forming an umbrella, parasol, parasol or the like.

On connait depuis fort longtemps des ustensiles du type ci-dessus et permettant de se protéger contre les intempéries ou le soleil.Utensils of the above type have been known for a very long time and making it possible to protect against the weather or the sun.

Toutefois ces ustensiles ne sont pas particulièrement attractifs et ne possèdent généralement pas d'autres fonctions que celle permettant de se protéger contre la pluie ou le soleil.However, these utensils are not particularly attractive and generally do not have any other function than that allowing protection against rain or sun.

L'invention a donc pour but de conférer à ce genre d'ustensile une fonction d'éclairage qui est particulièrement utile pendant l'utilisation de nuit et qui en même temps procure à l'ustensile un aspect esthétique et attractif particulièrement heureux.The invention therefore aims to give this kind of utensil a lighting function which is particularly useful during night use and which at the same time gives the utensil a particularly attractive aesthetic and attractive appearance.

A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un ustensile portatif formant parapluie, parasol, ombrelle ou analogue et du type comprenant un mât ou manche portant à l'une de ses extrémités une couverture qui peut être maintenue en position déployée ouverte par une armature constituée par des branches ou baleines flexibles et/ou rigides, caractérisé en ce qu'au moins une partie des branches ou baleines de l'armature est réalisée en une matière transparente, tandis qu'une source de lumière est prévue au voisinage du point de convergence de ces branches en matière transparente qui assurent ainsi le guidage et la diffusion de la lumière.To this end, the subject of the invention is a portable utensil forming an umbrella, parasol, parasol or the like and of the type comprising a mast or handle carrying at one of its ends a cover which can be held in the deployed position open by a frame. constituted by flexible and / or rigid branches or ribs, characterized in that at least a part of the branches or ribs of the frame is made of a transparent material, while a light source is provided in the vicinity of the point of convergence of these branches in transparent material which thus ensure the guiding and the diffusion of the light.

On comprend donc que l'armature du parapluie ou du parasol jouera le rôle d'un guide diffuseur de lumière permettant aux personnes utilisant le parapluie la nuit de s'éclairer, et cela sans compliquer inutilement la structure habituelle du parapluie.It is therefore understood that the frame of the umbrella or parasol will play the role of a light-diffusing guide allowing people using the umbrella at night to light up, and this without unnecessarily complicating the usual structure of the umbrella.

Suivant une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la source de lumière est constituée par au moins une ampoule électrique solidaire de l'extrémité du manche immédiatement en dessous de la couverture au point où convergent les branches ou baleines en matière transparente qui sont solidaires de ladite couverture.According to another characteristic of the invention, the light source consists of at least one electric bulb secured to the end of the handle immediately below the cover at the point where the branches or whales of transparent material converge which are secured to said blanket.

Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, la source de lumière est alimentée en courant par une filerie passant dans le manche et raccordée à des piles ou analogues de préférence logées dans ledit manche.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, the light source is supplied with current by a wiring passing in the handle and connected to batteries or the like preferably housed in said handle.

On précisera encore ici qu'on prévoit un interrupteur qui est solidaire du manche ou de la poignée à l'extrémité de ce manche.It will also be specified here that a switch is provided which is integral with the handle or the handle at the end of this handle.

Suivant une réalisation préférée, la source de lumière ou ampoule préci tée, est logée dans une douille transparente interposée entre la couverture et l'extrémité du manche, cette douille étant de préférence fixée de manière amovible sur le manche.According to a preferred embodiment, the aforementioned light source or bulb is housed in a transparent socket interposed between the cover and the end of the handle, this socket preferably being detachably fixed on the handle.

Les branches ou baleines, et éventuellement le manche, sont réalisés en une matière transparente synthétique appropriée permettant le guidage et la diffusion de la lumière, telle que par exemple du plexiglass.The branches or whales, and possibly the handle, are made of a suitable synthetic transparent material allowing the guidance and the diffusion of the light, such as for example plexiglass.

Selon encore une autre caractéristique de l'invention, sur les branches ou baleines en matière transparente solidaires du dessous de la couverture, sont articulées des tiges ou analogues rigides en matière métallique ou transparente, elles-mêmes articulées sur une noix coulissant sur le manche.According to yet another characteristic of the invention, on the branches or whales of transparent material integral with the underside of the cover, are articulated rigid rods or the like in metallic or transparent material, themselves articulated on a nut sliding on the handle.

On peut prévoir, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, une autre source de lumière logée dans le manche au niveau du point d'accrochage de la noix sur ce manche.We can provide, without departing from the scope of the invention, another light source housed in the handle at the point of attachment of the nut on this handle.

Ainsi, non seulement les baleines du parapluie ou du parasol pourront être éclairées, mais également les tiges articulées entre ces baleines et la noix coulissant sur le manche, de sorte que l'ensemble de l'armature formée par les baleines et les tiges pourra servir de guide et de diffuseur de lumière, ce qui augmentera encore les capacités d'éclairement tout en améliorant l'esthétique.Thus, not only the whales of the umbrella or the parasol can be lit, but also the rods articulated between these whales and the nut sliding on the handle, so that the whole of the frame formed by the whales and the rods can serve guide and light diffuser, which will further increase the lighting capacity while improving the aesthetics.

Mais d'autres avantages et caractéristiques de l'invention apparaîtront mieux dans la description détaillée qui suit et se réfère au dessin unique annexé, donné uniquement à titre d'exemple, et montrant en coupe et en perspective un parapluie conforme aux principes de l'invention.However, other advantages and characteristics of the invention will appear better in the detailed description which follows and refers to the single appended drawing, given solely by way of example, and showing in section and in perspective an umbrella conforming to the principles of invention.

En se reportant à la figure unique, on voit un parapluie d'un type classique, c'est-à-dire comportant un manche ou mât 1 qui porte à l'une de ses extrémités 2 une couverture 3 en toile ou tissu imperméable, cette couverture étant repliable et pouvant être maintenue en position déployée ouverte grâce à une armature essentiellement constituée par des branches ou baleines flexibles 4.Referring to the single figure, we see an umbrella of a conventional type, that is to say comprising a handle or pole 1 which carries at one of its ends 2 a cover 3 of canvas or waterproof fabric, this cover being foldable and being able to be kept in the open deployed position thanks to a frame essentially constituted by flexible branches or ribs 4.

Sur ces dernières, sont articulées en 5 des tiges 6 elles-mêmes articulées en 7 sur une noix 8 susceptible de coulisser le long du manche 1 pour fermer ou ouvrir le parapluie.On the latter, are articulated in 5 rods 6 themselves articulated in 7 on a nut 8 capable of sliding along the handle 1 to close or open the umbrella.

Toutes les dispositions ci-dessus sont bien connues et n'ont pas besoin d'être décrites plus en détail.All of the above arrangements are well known and need not be described in more detail.

Conformément à l'invention, on prévoit une source de lumière, telle que par exemple une ampoule 9 au point de convergence des baleines 4 qui sont réalisées en une matière transparente synthétique appropriée, telle que par exemple une matière connue sous la dénomination "Plexiglass".According to the invention, a light source is provided, such as for example a bulb 9 at the point of convergence of the whales 4 which are made of an appropriate synthetic transparent material, such as for example a material known under the name "Plexiglass" .

L'ampoule électrique 9 est de préférence située immédiatement en dessous de la couverture 3, c'est-à-dire au point où convergent les baleines 4 qui sont solidaires du dessous de ladite couverture.The electric bulb 9 is preferably located immediately below the cover 3, that is to say at the point where the whales 4 which converge from below said cover converge.

L'ampoule 9 est raccordée par une filerie 10 noyée dans le manche 1 à une alimentation en courant constituée ici par une batterie de piles 11 également logées dans le manche 1 qui, comme les baleines 4, peut être lui aussi en une matière synthétique transparente.The bulb 9 is connected by a wiring 10 embedded in the handle 1 to a current supply constituted here by a battery of batteries 11 also housed in the handle 1 which, like the whales 4, can also be made of a transparent synthetic material .

Un interrupteur 12 de commande de l'allumage de l'ampoule 9 est prévu sur le manche 1. Cet interrupteur pourrait parfaitement, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, être prévu sur la poignée 13 du parapluie, par exemple à l'extrémité libre de cette poignée.A switch 12 for controlling the ignition of the bulb 9 is provided on the handle 1. This switch could perfectly, without departing from the scope of the invention, be provided on the handle 13 of the umbrella, for example at the end free from this handle.

Suivant une réalisation préférée, l'ampoule 9 est logée dans une douille transparente 14 interposée entre la couverture 3 et l'extrémité 2 du manche 1.According to a preferred embodiment, the bulb 9 is housed in a transparent socket 14 interposed between the cover 3 and the end 2 of the handle 1.

La douille 14 peut être fixée de manière amovible, par exemple par vissage, sur l'extrémité 2 du manche, ce qui permet, comme on le comprend, le démontage du manche et le changement d'ampoule.The socket 14 can be fixed removably, for example by screwing, on the end 2 of the handle, which allows, as is understood, the disassembly of the handle and the change of bulb.

On peut prévoir, sans sortir du cadre de l'invention, une autre ampoule dans le manche 1, cette ampoule étant montrée schématiquement en 15 et étant située au niveau du point d'accrochage de la noix 8 permettant le verrouillage du parapluie en position ouverte.We can provide, without departing from the scope of the invention, another bulb in the handle 1, this bulb being shown diagrammatically at 15 and being located at the point of attachment of the nut 8 allowing the umbrella to be locked in the open position. .

Cette ampoule pourra éclairer tant la noix 8 qui peut être en matière plastique transparente, que les tiges 6 qui peuvent être elles aussi être en matière transparente.This bulb can illuminate both the nut 8 which can be made of transparent plastic, and the rods 6 which can also be made of transparent material.

Plus précisément, on voit sur la figure que l'ampoule 15 est située au point de convergence des tiges 6, de même que l'ampoule 9 est située au point de convergence des baleines 4.More precisely, it can be seen in the figure that the bulb 15 is located at the point of convergence of the rods 6, just as the bulb 9 is located at the point of convergence of the whales 4.

Le fonctionnement et les avantages du parapluie ou parasol se déduisent immédiatement de la description qui précède.The operation and the advantages of the umbrella or parasol are immediately deduced from the above description.

Après avoir ouvert l'appareil, l'utilisateur actionne l'interrupteur 12, ce qui provoque l'allumage de l'ampoule 9, et éventuellement de l'ampoule 15, si elle existe.After opening the device, the user actuates the switch 12, which causes the bulb 9 to light, and possibly the bulb 15, if it exists.

Ainsi, la lumière se propagera dans les baleines 4 et éventuellement dans les tiges 6 sous la coupole ou couverture 3. Dès lors le parapluie procurera un éclairage à l'utilisateur ce qui est rassurant la nuit, comme on le comprend. En outre, l'éclairement des baleines 4 et des tiges 6 procurera au parapluie une esthétique particulièrement attractive.Thus, the light will propagate in the whales 4 and possibly in the rods 6 under the dome or cover 3. Therefore the umbrella will provide lighting to the user which is reassuring the night, as we understand it. In addition, the lighting of the whales 4 and the rods 6 will give the umbrella a particularly attractive aesthetic.

Bien entendu, l'invention n'est nullement limitée au mode de réalisation décrit et illustré qui n'a été donné qu'à titre d'exemple.Of course, the invention is in no way limited to the embodiment described and illustrated, which has been given only by way of example.

C'est ainsi que l'invention peut s'appliquer à tous les types connus d'ustensiles du genre parapluie, parasol, ombrelle ou analogue, que la coupole soit repliable ou non, et quel que soit le type d'armature choisi.Thus the invention can be applied to all known types of utensils of the umbrella, parasol, parasol or similar type, whether the dome is foldable or not, and whatever the type of frame chosen.

De même, la section et la matière des baleines et éventuellement des tiges assurant le guidage et la diffusion de la lumière peuvent être quelconques. A cet égard, la surface extérieure des baleines et des tiges peut être traitée d'une manière appropriée pour assurer une bonne diffusion de la lumière sous la coupole et donc un bon éclairage de l'utilisateur et du sol.Similarly, the section and the material of the whales and possibly of the rods ensuring the guidance and the diffusion of the light can be arbitrary. In this regard, the outer surface of the whales and rods can be treated in an appropriate manner to ensure good light distribution under the dome and therefore good lighting for the user and the ground.

C'est dire que l'invention comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits ainsi que leurs combinaisons si celles-ci sont effectuées suivant son esprit.This means that the invention includes all the technical equivalents of the means described, as well as their combinations if these are carried out according to the spirit.
