Abstract

The handle (1) to be attached to the lower end of the shaft of an umbrella is cylindrically shaped and hollow (3). A groove (5) positioned axially along the outer surface (6) of the handle can be used for the insertion of a rectangular sheet (4) of a rigid material provided with a text, a picture, or combination of both. The groove (5) reaches down to the lower edge of the handle (1), facilitating the sheet (4) to be slid in and out conveniently as required. The insert (4) can be made of the same material as the handle (1) or in a contrasting color or texture. It can be level with its surroundings (6) or slightly raised.

Der Schirmgriff wird hinsichtlich der Längsnut zweckmäßig so gestaltet, dass die in die Längsnut eingesetzte Leiste bis an die Stirnseite der Hülse reicht. Dies gibt dem Schirmgriff nicht nur ein gefälliges Aussehen, es läßt sich die Leiste bei ihrer Gestaltung auch in Axialrichtung der Leiste leicht aus der Längsnut herausziehen und durch eine andere Leiste ersetzen, wenn dies erforderlich ist bzw. es kann bei der Herstellung des Schirmgriffs die jeweils gewünschte individuell gestaltete Leiste von der Stirnseite des Schirmgriffs her in die Längsnut eingeschoben werden.With regard to the longitudinal groove, the umbrella handle is appropriately designed so that the bar inserted into the longitudinal groove extends to the front of the sleeve. This gives the umbrella handle not only a pleasing appearance, it can be the bar at her Pull the design slightly out of the longitudinal groove, also in the axial direction of the bar and replace it with another bar if this is necessary or it can be replaced by the manufacture of the umbrella handle the desired individually designed The bar can be inserted into the longitudinal groove from the front of the umbrella handle.

Für die besondere Gestaltung der Individualität der Leiste wird diese zweckmäßig farblich gegenüber der Farbe der Hülse abgesetzt.This is useful for the special design of the individuality of the bar contrasted in color with the color of the sleeve.

Die Griffigkeit des Schirmgriffs läßt sich dadurch besonders erhöhen, dass die Leiste gegenüber der Oberfläche der Hülse geringfügig vorsteht.The grip of the umbrella handle can be increased particularly that the Bar protrudes slightly from the surface of the sleeve.
