Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Regenschirm, mit einem am Ende des Schirmstockes ausgebildeten Griff, der einen gegenüber dem Schirmstock abgewinkelten Griffabschnitt aufweist. Ein derartiger Schirm ist aus der DE-C-152032 bekannt.The invention relates to an umbrella, with a handle formed at the end of the umbrella stick, which has an angled handle portion relative to the umbrella stick. Such a screen is known from DE-C-152032.

Die Unterbringung eines Schirms in einem Kraftfahrzeug, insbesondere in einem Personenkraftwagen, ist ein bisher noch nicht befriedigend gelöstes Problem. Legt man den Schirm auf den Fahrzeugboden, besteht die Gefahr, dass er verschmutzt oder gar beschädigt wird. Legt man den Schirm auf einen der noch freien Sitze, so werden diese nass, wenn der Schirm nass war. Ausserdem besteht auch hier die Gefahr der Beschädigung des Schirm, wenn sich ein Benutzer des Sitzes versehentlich auf den Schirm setzt.The placement of an umbrella in a motor vehicle, in particular in a passenger car, is a problem that has not yet been satisfactorily solved. If you place the screen on the vehicle floor, there is a risk that it will become dirty or even damaged. If you place the umbrella on one of the vacant seats, they will get wet if the umbrella was wet. In addition, there is also a risk of damage to the screen if a user of the seat accidentally sits on the screen.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Regenschirm der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, der unter Vermeidung der vorgenannten Nachteile griffgünstig und sicher in dem Kraftfahrzeug aufbewahrt werden kann.The invention has for its object to provide an umbrella of the type mentioned, which can be stored easily and safely in the motor vehicle while avoiding the aforementioned disadvantages.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss dadurch gelöst, dass in dem etwa gerade verlaufenden Griffabschnitt seitlich eine Ausnehmung vorgesehen ist, um den Schirm an einer Kopfstützen-Tragstange einer Sitz-Rückenlehne eines Kraftfahrzeugs zu haltern. Der Schirm kann auf diese Weise mit dem Griffabschnitt auf die Lehnenoberkante der Rückenlehne eines Personenkraftwagensitzes gehängt und über die Ausnehmung an einer der vertikalen Tragstangen fixiert werden, mit denen die Kopfstütze an dem Lehnenteil des Sitzes befestigt ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in that a recess is provided laterally in the approximately straight handle section in order to hold the screen on a headrest support rod of a seat backrest of a motor vehicle. In this way, the screen can be hung with the handle section on the upper backrest edge of the backrest of a passenger car seat and can be fixed via the recess on one of the vertical support rods with which the headrest is fastened to the backrest part of the seat.

Bei der bevorzugten Ausführungsform verläuft die Ausnehmung - in Draufsicht auf den Griffabschnitt - geneigt, wobei das offene Ende der Ausnehmung näher am Schirmstock liegt als der Grund der Ausnehmung. Mit einer derartig ausgebildeten Ausnehmung lässt sich der Regenschirm besonders sicher an den Tragstangen der Kopfstütze befestigen, da der in Richtung des Schirmstocks verlaufende Griffabschnitt oder der Schirmstock selber gewissermassen ein Widerlager gegen ein versehentliches Abrutschen des abgewinkelten Griffabschnitts von der Tragstange der Kopfstütze bildet.In the preferred embodiment, the recess - in a plan view of the handle section - is inclined, the open end of the recess being closer to the umbrella stick than the base of the recess. With such a recess, the umbrella can be particularly securely attached to the support rods of the headrest, since the handle section running in the direction of the umbrella stick or the umbrella stick itself forms a kind of abutment against inadvertent slipping off of the angled handle section from the support rod of the headrest.

Weitere vorteilhafte Einzelheiten der Erfindung, die Gegenstand von weiteren Unteransprüchen sind, sind im folgenden anhand eines in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. Es zeigen

  • Fig. 1 eine Seitenansicht des Griffbereichs des neuen Regenschirms und
  • Fig. 2 eine Ansicht in Richtung des Pfeiles II in Fig. 1.
Further advantageous details of the invention, which are the subject of further subclaims, are explained in more detail below with reference to an embodiment shown in the drawing. Show it
  • Fig. 1 is a side view of the grip area of the new umbrella and
  • 2 is a view in the direction of arrow II in FIG. 1st

In Fig. 1 der Zeichnung ist von dem Regenschirm nur dessen griffseitiger Bereich dargestellt mit einem angedeuteten Schirmstock 1, der an dessen freiem Ende den Griff 2 des Schirms trägt. Der Griff 2 weist einen gegenüber dem Schirmstock 1 abgewinkelten Griffabschnitt 3 auf.In Fig. 1 of the drawing of the umbrella only the handle-side area is shown with an indicated umbrella stick 1, which carries the handle 2 of the umbrella at its free end. The handle 2 has an angled handle section 3 with respect to the umbrella stick 1.

In den Griffabschnitt 3 ist seitlich eine Ausnehmung 4 vorgesehen. Gemäss Fig. 2 ist diese Ausnehmung 4 langgestreckt und zur Längserstreckung des Griffabschnitts 3 geneigt. Die Neigung ist dabei so gewählt, dass das offene Ende 4' der Ausnehmung 4 näher am Schirmstock 1 liegt als der Grund 5 der Ausnehmung 4.A recess 4 is provided laterally in the grip section 3. 2, this recess 4 is elongated and inclined to the longitudinal extent of the handle portion 3. The inclination is chosen such that the open end 4 ′ of the recess 4 is closer to the umbrella stick 1 than the base 5 of the recess 4.

In Fig. 1 der Zeichnung ist die Rückenlehne 6 eines vorderen Sitzes eines Personenkraftwagens und eine aus der oberen Kante der Rückenlehne 6 nach oben gerichtete Tragstange 7 angedeutet, die eine (nicht dargestellte) Kopfstütze trägt. Wie man in Fig. 1 weiterhin erkennt, ist der Regenschirm mit der im Griffabschnitt 3 ausgebildeten Ausnehmung 4 an der Tragstange 7 eingehängt. Der ansonsten auf dem oberen Rand der Rückenlehne 6 aufruhende Griffabschnitt 3 kann daher auch bei grösseren Beschleunigungen des Kraftfahrzeugs nicht von der Rückenlehne 6 abgleiten. Die hintere Seite der Rückenlehne 6 wirkt dabei als Widerlager. Dank der Elastizität des Polstermaterials und - ggf. - auch nach einem leichten seitlichen Schwenken des Regenschirms kann dieser jedoch trotzdem mühelos von der Rückenlehne 6 entnommen werden.In Fig. 1 of the drawing, the backrest 6 of a front seat of a passenger car and a support rod 7 pointing upwards from the upper edge of the backrest 6 are indicated, which carries a headrest (not shown). As can also be seen in FIG. 1, the umbrella with the recess 4 formed in the grip section 3 is suspended on the support rod 7. The handle section 3, which is otherwise resting on the upper edge of the backrest 6, can therefore not slide off the backrest 6 even when the motor vehicle is accelerated significantly. The rear side of the backrest 6 acts as an abutment. Thanks to the elasticity of the upholstery material and - if necessary - even after the umbrella has been pivoted slightly to the side, it can still be easily removed from the backrest 6.

Zweckmässig beträgt die lichte Weite w der Ausnehmung 4 etwa 12 mm, so dass sich ein guter Sitz an den in der Regel 12 mm starken Tragstangen 7 der Kopfstützen ergibt.The clear width w of the recess 4 is expediently about 12 mm, so that there is a good fit on the generally 12 mm thick support rods 7 of the headrests.

Wie man in Fig. 1 erkennt, verläuft in einer Queransicht der Griffabschnitt 3 gerade. Er ist dabei um etwa 12° aus einer senkrechten Lage zum Schirmstock 1 hin geneigt. Dies bewirkt, dass der Regenschirm auch bei einer etwas schräg nach hinten geneigten Rückenlehne 6 weitgehend auch an deren Rückseite anliegt oder nur einen geringen Abstand von dieser Rückenseite einnimmt, so dass der nasse Regenschirm die hintere Sitzbank unbeeinflusst lässt.As can be seen in FIG. 1, the handle section 3 runs straight in a transverse view. He is inclined by about 12 ° from a vertical position to the umbrella stick 1. This has the effect that, even with a backrest 6 which is inclined somewhat obliquely backwards, the umbrella largely rests against the back of the latter or takes up only a small distance from this rear side, so that the wet umbrella leaves the rear seat unaffected.
