Description

The present invention relates to a pocket for a pocket umbrella, the pocket having three closed and one open side.

The term pocket umbrella here and in the following all umbrellas are designated, the hinged rods and a telescopic, u. a. Also include multiply telescopic, stick.

Bags for pocket umbrellas are known. The DE 296 09 960 U1 describes a waterproof umbrella cover in which can be collected by a closed, wet umbrella running rainwater. The umbrella cover is frustoconical and has at the top of the umbrella cover a Velcro strip, with the umbrella cover can be firmly closed to an umbrella. The umbrella cover allows the laying of the wet umbrella, z. B. in the car, without the moisture of the screen thereby reaches the outside. When not in use, the umbrella cover can be rolled up and kept together with the velcro strip.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a practical pocket for a pocket umbrella, with which the closed pocket umbrella can be transported both in the wet and in the dry state.

This object is achieved by a bag for a pocket umbrella according to claim 1. Thereafter, in a pocket for a pocket umbrella, which has three closed sides and an open side, provided that the bag has a substantially perpendicular to the open side arranged fastening means, the includes two complementary parts.

An advantage of the invention is that the wet or dry pocket umbrella can be stowed and transported in the pocket after use, without having to be compactly compacted. In addition, the bag can be contained with pocket umbrella included by merging and connecting the two parts of the fastener such that it provides protection for the pocket umbrella when this z. B. in a larger bag, such as handbag or the like transported is or for example attached to a fastened to the pocket strap loop, z. B. cord or chain is worn. The bag can be easily narrowed when the dry or wet umbrella is inside, without this z. B. must be rolled up particularly compact. By narrowing the bag around the pocket umbrella by means of the fastener can be avoided that the bag detaches from the umbrella and may be lost if the folding umbrella z. B. is worn only on the attached to him loop.

The fastening means is preferably a separable zipper. This allows a particularly simple and firm joining of the two complementary parts. Alternatively, for example, one or more push buttons, Velcro closures or magnetic closures may be provided as fastening means.

The fastening means is preferably arranged in an edge region of the closed sides arranged substantially perpendicular to the open side d. H. exactly or slightly spaced from the corresponding edge. This allows a particularly simple narrowing of the bag and secure holding together the two parts of the fastener or the zipper.

If the bag is made of a waterproof material, a wet pocket umbrella can be transported in the bag after use without moisture getting out of the bag. This can be avoided that clothes are soaked when transporting the wet folding umbrella in the bag. Also, the bag can be stowed with the wet umbrella, for example, in a purse or grocery bag, without the rest of the contents of this is soaked.

Preferably, a length of the fastener corresponds to 50% to 100% of the length of the closed sides arranged substantially perpendicular to the open side. As a result, the pocket umbrella can not easily slip out of the bag when it is narrowed by means of the fastening means.

Preferably, means for gripping the pocket are arranged on the open side of the bag. This can be z. As a molded handle or handle, a drawstring or a recess in the material of the bag, which is shaped as a handle, be. Thus, the bag can be worn better in the non-narrowed state, if in z. B. a wet pocket umbrella stowed. Prior to narrowing the bag by merging and connecting the two parts of the fastener, the means for gripping the bag z. B. enveloped in the interior of the bag or be turned over to one side of the bag, that it is after merging and connecting the two parts of the fastener between the fastener and the one side of the bag. The pocket umbrella can then z. B. on a strap attached to it, z. As cord or chain, are worn. Alternatively, the means for gripping the bag may also be used after narrowing the bag to transport the bag. In a preferred embodiment, the means for gripping on the side or in the interior of the bag can be fixed, for example by a hook and loop fastener, button, z. B. eyelet, hole or push button, magnetic closure, zipper or the like. This can prevent the means for grasping from possibly laterally slipping out during later connection of the two parts of the fastening means.

The advantage of the bag according to the invention is therefore in particular that it can be used both for transporting the dry pocket umbrella as well as the directly after use wet pocket umbrella. Both around the dry, as well as around the wet pocket umbrella, the bag can be narrowed by merging and connecting the two parts of the fastener. Even when not constricted, the bag serves as a container for a wet or dry pocket umbrella that you want to stow. With a wet pocket umbrella, stowing it in the bag is particularly convenient to prevent the wet bag screen from soaking clothes or groceries. For example, if you're out in the rain and want to go to a shop or restaurant, you can close the wet umbrella first and put it in your wet bag. This is preferably waterproof, so that it can be placed with the umbrella in the purse or shopping bag, without the things therein are soaked. In this way, one can not easily forget the pocket umbrella and may also prevent a theft of the umbrella because it does not have to be stored in an umbrella stand at the entrance of a shop or restaurant.

In FIG. 1 is shown a schematically simplified illustration of a pocket 10 for a pocket umbrella 12 according to a first embodiment of the invention. The folding umbrella 12 is in FIG. 1 indicated by dashed lines and is located inside the pocket 10. The pocket 10 has three closed sides 14, 16, 18 and an open side 20. Substantially perpendicular to the open side 20 are complementary Parts 22, 24 of a fastener arranged on the pocket 10. In FIG. 1 are used as two complementary parts 22, 24 of the fastener parts of a separable zipper 26. Alternatively, other two-part fasteners can be used, for. B. complementary parts of one or more snaps, Velcro or magnetic closures.

The two complementary parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26 are arranged at the edges 28, 30 of the closed sides 14, 18 arranged substantially perpendicular to the open side 20.

A length 32 of the two complementary parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26 corresponds in the example shown here about 87% of a length 34 of the substantially perpendicular to the open side 20 arranged closed sides 14, 18. On the open side 20 of the bag 10 are as a means arranged to grip the bag 10 molded handles 36. In the view shown, only one of the handles 36 is visible, the other is below.

For the pockets shown here, a front 38 and a back 40 can be defined. FIG. 1 is a view of the back 36 of the bag 10, the front 34 points into the plane. To connect the two complementary parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26, these are brought together at the front side of the pocket 10, that is to say in the drawing plane, so that the zipper 26 can be closed. A width of 42 in FIG. 1 shown pocket 10 corresponds to about 71% of the length 32 of the bag 10th

FIG. 2 shows a bag 50 according to a second embodiment of the present invention. For the same components, the same reference numerals as in FIG. 1 used. Unlike in FIG. 1 shown pocket 10 corresponds to the length of the two complementary parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26 in this example about 80% of the length of the substantially perpendicular to the open side 20 arranged closed sides 14, 18. A width 42 of the pocket 50 corresponds to about 60% of Length 32 of the bag 50.

Furthermore, in a top part 52 of the pocket 50, a recess 54 in the material of the pocket 50 is provided as a means for gripping the pocket 50. The recess 54 is preferably embedded in the material both on the back 40 as well as on the front side of the pocket 50 pointing into the plane of the drawing.

In FIG. 3 a bag 60 according to a third embodiment of the present invention is shown. In this pocket 60, one of the two complementary parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26 is not at the edge 30 of the pocket 60, but at some distance from the edge 30 in an edge region 62 of the closed sides 14 arranged substantially perpendicular to the open side 20, 18 offset on the front 38 of the bag 60 arranged. This results in the connection of the two complementary parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26, an overlap 64, through which the zipper 26 is covered.

FIG. 4 shows the bag 50 FIG. 2 in a view in which a part 22 of the zipper 26 has been placed on the front side 38 of the pocket 50. FIG. 5 shows the same view for the pocket 60 FIG. 3 , In this case, the pocket umbrella is located inside the pocket 50, 60. The upper part of the respective pocket 50, 60, which comprises the recess 54 shaped as a means for gripping, was previously hammered into the interior of the pocket 50, 60. Alternatively, it may be folded over to the front 38 of the pocket 50, 60, or may be brought together with the two parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26 on the front 38 of the pocket 50, 60. The bag 10 off FIG. 1 looks with hammered handle 36 accordingly.

In the FIGS. 6 and 7 are each the pockets 50, 60 off FIG. 2 respectively. FIG. 3 shown in the constricted state, that is, after the two parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26 merged and this was closed. In FIG. 7 the zipper 26 is now covered by the overlap 64. If the upper portion of the pocket 50, 60 had not previously been wrapped inside the pocket 50, 60 or turned over to the front of the pocket 50, 60, it would protrude above the zipper 26 and the recess 54 disposed therein could also be in the necked state the bag 50, 60 are used as means for gripping the pocket 50, 60. The same can also be said for other means for gripping the pocket, such as the molded-on handle 36 (FIG. FIG. 1 ) or other alternatives, such. As a drawstring or a loop, apply, provided that they are located in the upper part of the bag. In most cases, a loop is attached to a pocket umbrella, which is transported in the bag, so that the pocket umbrella in the narrowed state of the bag can also be worn on it. Therefore the dimensions of the bag and the pocket umbrella are preferably approximately matched to one another such that the pocket encloses the pocket umbrella sufficiently tightly after the complementary parts of the attachment means have been brought together. This means that the bag umbrella can be pulled out of the narrowed bag with little effort to quickly be available for use again, but on the other hand, the bag can not slip from the pocket umbrella only due to the gravity and movement of the bag.

FIG. 8 FIG. 12 shows another exemplary pocket 70 wherein the length 34 of the zipper 26 corresponds to 100% of the length 32 of the pocket 70. The width 42 of the pocket 70 is about 75% of the length 32 of the pocket 70. With such a width to length ratio, the pocket 70 is particularly well suited for very small pocket umbrellas.

In FIG. 9 For example, a pocket 80 is shown as being narrowed from a bottom 82. Inside the bag 80 is a pocket umbrella. The two complementary parts 22, 24 of the zipper 26 are arranged on the edges 28, 30 of the pocket 80, so that the zipper 26 is not overlapped when closing.

The in the FIGS. 1 to 9 shown pocket 10, 50, 60, 70, 80 is preferably made of a water-impermeable material. So it offers a container from which the wetness of the pocket umbrella can not get out and wet clothes or other groceries.
