Then, the end of the lower blade-like body 17 is sandwiched between the back surface of the mounting plate 7 and is sandwiched and fixed by a bent pressing plate 8 and a screw 8a. Here, the screw is used for fixing, but the present invention is not limited to this method, and it is also possible to provide a long hole in the rotating shaft 2 without using a screw, and to use a sandwiching type mounting method. By doing so, the screw and mounting work can be significantly reduced.

The above-mentioned upper blade-like body 16 is sandwiched between three sheets, that is, each cloth-finished part is hit by a continuous contact at the thin blade-like part with a thin tip, but the base part has meat. Since it has a thickness, the elasticity increases, and the rainwater adhering to the surface of the upholstered portion or to the back can be reliably knocked down. On the other hand, a lower blade 17 is provided at a lower position. The shape of the lower blade-like body 17 is a structure in which four pieces having the same width and the same length are formed in the radial direction (cross-shaped) in a single or double layer and fixed to the slope 2b of the rotating shaft 2. Because

Further, the configuration other than the above, for example, the shape of the lower lower blade 17 at the lower side is a cylindrical shape made of water absorption. Even when the stone butt Ub at the tip of the umbrella U is guided in the lower guide passage 3f by the cylindrical shape, the tip of the umbrella does not swing because the lower side is slightly pressed by the mutual cylinders and moves. It can be moved. For example, the cylindrical shape is the radiation direction (cross-shaped)
Is the diameter of the cylinder.

In the above description, the second stage is that the upper blade plate 16 of the first stage (for example, having a length of about 30 cm to 40 c
m), about two-thirds of each upper clothed portion is hit, and the lower blades 17 of the second stage are (for example,
The length of the umbrella for adults (for example, the length of the upholstered portion Ua is approximately 60 cm) by hitting each of the remaining lower upholstered portions Ua by forming the length to be approximately 15 cm to 20 cm.
From 70cm).
Although the upper blade-like body 16 and the lower blade-like body 17 are arranged in two stages along the rotating shaft 2, the number of stages is not limited to these, and it is possible to set an arbitrary number or number of stages.
