Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- This invention relates to an umbrella, and more particularly to an umbrella having a structure for preventing raindrops on a wetted umbrella cloth from being deposited on surroundings.
- 2. Description of the Prior Arts;
- When a wetted umbrella is brought into an electric car particularly during rush hours, an outer surface wetted with rainwater of an umbrella cloth contacts the clothes, such as the trousers, skirts and the like of the surrounding passengers to cause the clothes to be wetted with the rainwater, and these passengers to be put to trouble in some cases.
- When an umbrella wetted with rainwater is newly inserted into an umbrella stand, a wetted outer surface of the umbrella wets in some cases other umbrella which were adjacently put in the umbrella stand in which the wet umbrella is inserted. When an umbrella is inserted into the portion of an umbrella. stand which is on the rear side of the portion thereof in which a wet umbrella stands, or when an umbrella standing on the rear side of a wetted umbrella is taken out of an umbrella stand, a wetted outer surface of the umbrella wetted the hands and clothes of a user of the umbrella stand in some cases.
- When a related art umbrella closed with a large quantity of rainwater deposited thereon is shaken so as to remove the rainwater therefrom, a centrifugal force is exerted on a free end of the umbrella but not much on a handle thereof, so that the rainwater could not be shaken off sufficiently against a user's will.
- The present invention has been made in view of the bad influence which the raindrops on such a wet umbrella as mentioned above exert on the clothes of surrounding persons or surrounding arranged objects, and provides an umbrella which has a structure capable of preventing the wetted outer surface of an umbrella used outdoors on a rainy day, wetted with rainwater and then closed from exerting a bad influence upon the surroundings, and which enables the rainwater on such an umbrella to be shaken off sufficiently.
- The umbrella according to the present invention having these characteristics includes a shaft rod having a ferrule fixed to one end thereof and a handle fixed to the other end thereof, a wheel fitted around the shaft rod and adapted to be moved slidingly toward the ferrule and retained on the shaft rod by a resilient locking device when the umbrella is opened, and toward the handle when the umbrella is closed, a plurality of elastic support ribs connected pivotably at one end of each thereof to the frame and extended symmetrically with respect to the axis of the shaft rod, auxiliary support ribs connected pivotably at one end of each thereof to the ferrule, extended along the corresponding elastic support ribs respectively, and connected pivotably at the other end of each thereof to the elastic support ribs, and an umbrella cloth extended so as to cover outer sides of the auxiliary support ribs and elastic support ribs.
- When the umbrella according to the present invention having such a structure in an opened state is closed gradually, the frame is released from a locking force of the locking device. As the frame is moved toward the handle, the elastic support ribs which have theretofore been elastically deformed and in a recessed state with respect to the handle are reversed elastically in a predetermined position in a projecting state with respect to the handle. The elastic support ribs and auxiliary support ribs are then folded around support shafts so that the free end portions of the former ribs and the latter ribs approach each other. The umbrella cloth is also folded to a substantially W-shaped cross-section between the free end portions of the elastic support ribs and the auxiliary support ribs. Accordingly, a wetted outer surface of the umbrella cloth is not positioned on the outer side of the closed umbrella.
- FIG. 1 is an explanatory drawing in side elevation showing the construction of a first mode of embodiment of the umbrella in an opened state according to the present invention;
- FIG. 2 is an explanatory drawing in side elevation showing the construction of the same embodiment in an initial closing condition thereof;
- FIG. 3 is an explanatory drawing in side elevation showing the construction of the same embodiment in an intermediate closing condition thereof;
- FIG. 4 is a drawing showing the construction of the same embodiment in a final closing condition, wherein:
- FIG. 4A is an explanatory drawing in side elevation; and
- FIG. 4B is a partial enlarged view;
- FIG. 5 is a partially cutaway view in side elevation of an example of a resilient locking device used for the umbrella according to the present invention; and
- FIG. 6 is an enlarged side view showing a resiliently locked state of an embodiment of the present invention in an opened state.
- An embodiment of the umbrella opened in use according to the present invention will now be described. As shown in FIG. 1, a
tubular shaft rod 1 has on one end thereof aferrule 3 fixed thereto, and a plurality ofauxiliary support ribs 10 extended symmetrically with respect to the axis of theferrule 3 are connected pivotably to the ferrule. Theshaft rod 1 also has at the other end thereof ahandle 2, which a user holds, fixed thereto. - Between the
ferrule 3 and handle 2, aframe 5 is fitted slidably around theshaft rod 1. A plurality ofelastic support ribs 8 having a length larger than that of theauxiliary support ribs 10 are connected pivotably at one end of each thereof to thisframe 5. Theseelastic support ribs 8 are extended symmetrically with respect to the axis of theshaft rod 1, and along the above-mentionedauxiliary support ribs 10 so that the elastic support ribs are recessed with respect to thehandle 2. -
Support shafts 11 are fixed to extended end portions of the pluralauxiliary support ribs 10, and via support shafts 11 a plurality ofauxiliary support ribs 10 are connected pivotably to intermediate portions of the pluralelastic support ribs 8. Theumbrella cloth 12 is extended at the portions thereof which are on outer sides of theauxiliary support ribs 10 and supportshafts 11 therefor on an outer side of theelastic support ribs 8 so that theumbrella cloth 12 is extended from theferrule 3 to free end portions of theelastic support ribs 8. Theumbrella cloth 12 is fixed at suitable portions thereof to theauxiliary support ribs 10 andelastic support ribs 8 by a string and the like. - As shown in FIG. 5, a fixed retainer ring7-1 is fitted firmly around an end portion on the side of the ferrule 31 of the
shaft rod 1, while a movable retainer ring 7-2 is fitted around the portion of the shaft rod which is on the side of theframe 5 so as to be opposed to the fixed retainer ring 7-1 so that the movable retainer ring 7-2 can be engaged with but not fixed to theframe 5. Between the fixed retainer ring 7-1 and movable retainer ring 7-2, aspring 7 is wound around theshaft rod 1. - The
tubular shaft rod 1 is provided with an opening 15 in the portion of a side wall thereof which is closer to thehandle 2 than to the movable retainer ring 7-2 for thespring 7. On an inner surface of theshaft rod 1 which corresponds to the opening 15, alocking member 6 urged outward by springs 13-1, 13-2 is fixed to theshaft rod 1 so as to project at a free end portion thereof from the opening 15 with the umbrella not in a fully opened state. - The
shaft rod 1 is provided at the portion thereof which is in the vicinity of thehandle 2 with alocking member 6′ formed similarly to the above-mentionedlocking member 6 but directed contrariwise with respect thereto. Thelock member 6′ fits in aslit 5′, which is provided in theframe 5, when the umbrella is closed, thelocking member 6′ working so as to retain a closed state of the umbrella (refer to FIG. 4B). - When the umbrella according to the present invention thus formed is in a fully opened state as shown in FIG. 1, the
frame 5 is retained in a fully umbrella opening position by thelocking member 6 projecting from theopening 15. Namely, when the umbrella is fully opened by moving up theframe 5, thelocking member 6 projecting from the opening 15 is forced into the opening 15 against the resilient force of the springs 13-1, 13-2, in accordance with the upward movement of the frame and the frame gets over thelocking member 6 and moves slidingly toward theferrule 3. Theframe 5 which has got over thelocking member 6 as shown in FIG. 1 is locked and retained as shown in FIG. 6, by thelocking member 6 projecting from the opening 15 by the resilient force of the springs 13-1, 13-2, and urged suitably toward thehandle 2 by the resilient force of thecompressed springs 7. - In this condition, the plural
elastic support ribs 8 connected pivotably to theframe 5 are retained in a substantially horizontal position, and theumbrella cloth 12 is extended by theelastic support ribs 8 andauxiliary support ribs 10 to protect a user holding thehandle 2 against the rainwater. - In order that the user close the just-used umbrella, the
frame 5 is moved slightly against the resilient force of thesprings 7 so as to bring theframe 5 closer to theferrule 3, and thelocking member 6 is forced into the interior of theopening 15 by a finger so that theframe 5 gets over thelocking member 6 and moves slidingly toward thehandle 2. As a result, the umbrella starts being closed as shown in FIG. 2, and theelastic support ribs 8 are elastically deformed so as to approach theshaft rod 1. - When the
frame 5 in this condition is further moved slidingly so that theframe 5 approaches thehandle 2, theelastic support ribs 8 which were turned in a predetermined position of travel of theframe 5 owing to the elastic force of theribs 8 around thesupport shafts 11 as shown in FIG. 3, and which were thereby elastically deformed in a recessed state with respect to thehandle 2, are elastically inverted in a predetermined position in a projecting state with respect to thehandle 2. At the same time, the free end portions of theelastic support ribs 8 are directed upward, and the free end portions of theelastic support ribs 8 are moved toward theauxiliary support ribs 10, so that theumbrella cloth 12 starts being folded to a substantially W-shaped cross section. - When the umbrella is closed gradually by further moving the
frame 5 slidingly toward thehandle 2, theauxiliary support ribs 10 are turned around thesupport shafts 11 as shown in FIG. 4, to cause theelastic support ribs 8 to be folded so as to approach theauxiliary support ribs 10. When the umbrella finishes being closed, theumbrella cloth 12 is folded and held between the free end portions of theelastic support ribs 8 and theauxiliary support ribs 10, and thelocking member 6′ in the vicinity of thehandle 2 fits in theslit 5′ of theframe 5 and retain the closed state of the umbrella. - Thus, according to the present invention, the plural
elastic support ribs 8 connected pivotably at one end of each thereof to theframe 5 are extended symmetrically with respect to the axis of theshaft rod 1, andauxiliary support ribs 10 are provided between theferrule 3 fixed to one end of theshaft rod 1 and intermediate portions of theelastic support ribs 8. Theauxiliary support ribs 10 are fixed at one end of each thereof to theferrule 3, and at the other end of each thereof to theelastic support ribs 8 via thesupport shafts 11. Therefore, the pluralauxiliary support ribs 10 are arranged along the correspondingelastic support ribs 8, and theumbrella cloth 12 are extended over theelastic support ribs 8 andauxiliary support ribs 10. - Accordingly, when the umbrella is closed gradually by moving the
frame 5 toward thehandle 2 fixed to the other end of theshaft rod 1, the free end portions of theelastic support ribs 8 are directed upward and moved toward theauxiliary support ribs 10 owing to the elastic force of thesame ribs 8 and the turning movement of the auxiliary support ribs 10 around thesupport shafts 11, and theumbrella cloth 12 is folded to a substantially W-shaped cross section. When the umbrella finishes being closed with thelocking member 6′ fitted in theslit 5′, theumbrella cloth 12 is folded and held between the free end portions of theelastic support ribs 8 and theauxiliary support ribs 10. Therefore, when the umbrella is closed, the wettedumbrella cloth 12 is not exposed to the outside, so that it becomes possible to perfectly prevent the wettedumbrella cloth 12 from wetting the clothes of the surrounding persons and the surrounding arranged articles. When the umbrella is moved arcuately with thehandle 2 gripped, a large centrifugal force is exerted on theumbrella cloth 12 folded on the side of the free end of the umbrella to a substantially W-shaped cross section around thesupport shafts 11, and an excellent rainwater shaken off ability of the umbrella is displayed. - According to the present invention described above, when the umbrella in an opened state is closed gradually by unlocking the frame, the elastic support ribs which were theretofore elastically deformed in a recessed state with respect to the handle as the frame were moved toward the handle are elastically inverted in a predetermined position so as to project toward the handle. As a result, the free end portions of the elastic support ribs and the auxiliary support ribs are folded around the support shafts so that the same free end portions and auxiliary support ribs approach each other, and the umbrella cloth is also folded to a substantially W-shaped cross section between the free end portions of the elastic support ribs and the auxiliary support ribs. Therefore, the wetted outer surface of the umbrella cloth is not positioned on the outer side of the closed umbrella, and it becomes possible to prevent the same surface from contacting the surrounding persons and objects. This invention thus enables an umbrella adapted to shake off the rainwater excellently to be provided.
