Definitions

• the invention relates to a housing with an umbrella, which has an essentially cylindrical knob, the housing being designed as an elongated compartment of a briefcase, satchel or the like. At one end, an insertion opening for the umbrella and at the opposite, closed end, one against the Has tip of the screen pressing spring member.
• German utility model 19 82 543 is a briefcase with an umbrella compartment accessible from the outside. This is dimensioned so that the screen protrudes slightly from the folder so that it can be removed without opening the folder.
• a container for travel purposes which contains an elongated compartment for receiving an umbrella. This compartment can be closed by a flap.
• DE-OS 24 46 354 describes and shows a briefcase which serves to hold a collapsible umbrella and which has an externally accessible chamber in which the umbrella can be locked in the inserted position. It is locked by means of a thread which is formed on the knob of the screen and on the insertion opening. At the closed end, the compartment has a spring element which pushes the screen out of the compartment in the unlocked position.
• the invention has for its object to provide a housing with umbrella of the type specified, in which the screen is locked in the housing with measures that are much simpler than in the prior art, so that no cumbersome screwdrivers are required for operation.
• the knob contains on its end face a push button loaded by a back pressure spring, the inner end of which is operatively connected to a pawl movable radially to the knob, which in the locking position, in which it radially over the lateral surface of the Knaufes protrudes, engages behind a retaining ring which is fastened in the insertion opening.
• the solution provided according to the invention has the considerable advantage that the screen is locked by itself when it is inserted into the compartment without the user having to carry out additional operations. To unlock it, a push of the thumb on the push button is sufficient, after which the spring element provided at the end of the compartment pushes the screen out of the compartment for its removal.
• the inner end of the push button has an inclined surface against which a corresponding inclined surface of the pawl rests via spring pressure.
• An alternative construction can be to pivotally mount the pawl at the inner end of the push button, so that when the umbrella is pressed into the compartment it engages behind the retaining ring with its end protruding over the outer surface of the knob.
• the pawl with its end protruding from a slot in the knob is designed as a ramp.
• the pawl is first pressed radially inward, in order to then snap back outwards via the spring pressure, so that; radially outer end of the pawl engages behind the retaining ring like a barb.
• the insertion opening can be closed, preferably by means of a spring plate pushed forward by the spring element when the screen is removed.
• FIG. 1 shows a view of an open briefcase with an integrated housing and an umbrella held therein in a partially extended position
• FIG. 2 shows an enlarged longitudinal section through the housing with an umbrella locked therein
• FIG. 3 shows a partially sectioned view of the knob
• FIG. 4 shows a representation corresponding to FIG
• Variant and Figure 5 shows another embodiment.
• FIG. 1 shows a briefcase 10 with the lid 12 open.
• An elongated, cuboid compartment 14 is formed in the briefcase 10 on one long side and serves as a housing for a collapsible umbrella 16.
• the umbrella 16 has a cylindrical knob 18 which, in the position of FIG. 3, protrudes from a round insertion opening 20 in the compartment 14.
• a retaining ring 22 is firmly attached in the insertion opening 20.
• FIG. 2 it can be seen that a spring 26, which acts on a spring plate 28, is supported on the closed end 24 of the compartment 14 opposite the insertion opening 20.
• a spring 26 which acts on a spring plate 28
• FIG. 2 shows that the outward end of the knob 18 is closed by an washer 32, in which a push button 34 sits coaxially to the knob 18.
• the push button 34 has an axially directed shaft 36, the end of which has an inclined surface 36 on which a corresponding inclined surface 40 of a pawl 42 is supported.
• the pawl 42 can be displaced radially to the axis of the knob 18 against a compression spring 44 and has at its end protruding radially beyond the outer surface of the knob 18 a run-up ramp 46 which protrudes from a slot 48 which is worked into the knob 18.
• the pawl 42 is pivotably mounted on the inner, tapered end of the shaft 36 of the push button 34 by means of a pin 62.
• the push button 34 is also pressed in here against the force of the back pressure spring 60, so that the run-up ramp 46 runs up on an inclined guide surface 64 within the slot 48, as a result of which the run-up ramp 46 is guided radially inward and out of engagement with the Retaining ring 22 is coming.
• the spring 26 shown in FIG. 2 then presses the umbrella 16 out of the compartment 14 via the spring plate 28.
• the user can press in an unlocking button 68 accommodated in a circumferential depression 66 of the knob 18, which in a known manner moves the pawls 70 provided inside the center rod 50 radially inward and thereby releases the sliding sleeve 56. This is moved by spring force in a known manner on the central rod 50 so that the screen automatically opens.
• the run-up ramp 46 is initially pivoted radially inward within the retaining ring 42. Since the pawl 42 has in its central region a knee-shaped projecting guide edge 72 which bears against a guide stop 74 formed within the knob 18, which consists of the front edge of the cylinder housing 76 for the return spring 60, the pawl 42 pulls radially inward during its pivoting the shaft 36 and thus also the push button 34 axially inwards, so that the back pressure spring 60 is tensioned.
• the back pressure spring 60 presses the push button 34 and thus the shaft 36 axially outwards again, so that the pawl 42 is pressed radially outwards via the guide edge 72 running onto the guide stop 74 and resumes its position shown in FIG.
• the front knob end of the screen corresponds to the variant shown in FIG. 4, with part of the wall of the briefcase 10 and the tubular compartment 14 also being recognizable here.
• the screen 16 When the screen 16 is inserted, its tip 30 presses against the round spring plate 28, whereby the spring 26 is compressed.
• the spring 26 pushes the spring plate 28 forward until it closes the insertion opening 20 from the inside. Since the spring plate 28 has a stepped shape, its central part 78 engages in the insertion opening 20 and closes it flush as seen from the outside. In the case of a long spring 26 which is compressed. Condition would take up an excessive amount of space, this can be stepped, so that a smaller diameter section engages in a larger section.
