Description

  The present invention relates to an umbrella that can be folded and opened and used on a head.

The present applicant has previously proposed a prior art called “folding hat” in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-82704 (Patent Document 1). The spring 15 and the slider 7 (and thus the interlocking cable 10) are interposed in the engagement between the fixed seat 1 corresponding to the center top surface and the fixed platen 11 corresponding to the bottom rail, and above the fixed seat 1. It is complicated because the pulling string 21 is joined between the cap 19 positioned at the position and the pulling handle 13 screwed to the fixing plate 11 to be involved in the opening / closing operation. And the fixed platen 11 were fitted to each other, and the fitting was not smooth. Moreover, the resin-made drainage hose for draining the rainwater of a water retention part has the fault of being bulky in the folded state.
JP-A-61-82704

  The present invention provides a rain umbrella that is worn on the head, has a simple folding open / close structure, and can smoothly drain rain water from a water retaining portion in a wearing position when used in rainy weather, and a drainage means that is not bulky when carried. A head-mounted umbrella having a head is provided.

In the head-mounted umbrella described in claim 1 of the present invention for solving the above-described problem, the main bone which is swingably engaged with the periphery of the skylight is split vertically and joined in a folding manner at an intermediate joint seat. In an open state where the water retaining part is formed at the lower end of the umbrella cloth, the fitting convex part formed with a tapered top at the bottom of the skylight is suspended downward. A fitting cylinder portion to be fitted to the fitting convex portion is erected on the upper surface of the lower cross, and one end is pivotably joined to the fulcrum of the joint seat, and the other end is swung to the periphery of the lower cross. The ribs that are joined in a movable manner are elastically deformed upward in a state where the fitting cylinder portion of the bottom wheel is externally fitted to the fitting projection portion of the skylight. A U-shaped puller is swingably suspended from a pair of the ribs sandwiching the frame.
Moreover, the invention described in claim 2 is flat in the water retaining portion in the head-weared umbrella described in claim 1 at a specific position slightly on the side opposite to the face in the head-mounted state. It is made by connecting a drainage hose made of flexible waterproof cloth.

  According to the head-wearing umbrella of the present invention, the fitting cylinder portion of the bottom rail is guided by the tapered top portion of the roof and smoothly fits on the fitting convex portion, and the ribs are convex upward. By elastically deforming, the fitting state (wearing position) of both is maintained, and it can be easily folded to the closed position by pulling down the puller, and rainwater in rainy weather can be smoothly worn by the drainage hose in the wearing position. Because it can drain, a stand that is crowded like watching sports such as baseball or soccer is not a nuisance to others but a gentle rain gear. Moreover, since the drainage hose tends to be flat, it is not bulky when folded and carried. Of course, depending on the choice of umbrella cloth, it can be a UV cut awning (parasol).

  Umbrella cloths are colorful and are UV-cut for sports spectators, and there are mass productions of specific colors, etc. The puller that releases the fitting between the fitting convex part and the fitting cylinder part is made of metal It is offered in the form of a flexible string (from a simple universal joint). Further, the drainage hose is not limited to cloth, but any other material that is easily flattened and waterproof can be used.

The head-wearing umbrella A according to the present invention will be described with reference to an embodiment. As shown in FIG. 1, a bullet-like fitting convex portion 2 having a top portion tapered in a downward direction on the lower surface of the roof 1 is suspended. Ten first master bones 3 whose one ends are swingably engaged with the peripheral edge of the skylight 1 are joined at the joint portions 4 so that the second master bones 5 can be folded open and closed at the joints 4. The lower end of the umbrella cloth 6 that is bent from the top surface over the parent bones 3 and 5 is fastened in a watertight manner with a cap 7 that is screwed to the roof 1. A V-shaped water retaining portion 8 is provided around the lower end portion in cooperation with the lower end of the second main bone 5, and the water retaining portion 8 is flexible and easily flattened via a screw seat 9, as shown in FIG. A drainage hose 10 made of a waterproof cloth is connected.
The ten receiving bones 12 having one end pivotably joined to the joint seat 11 disposed in the middle of the first main bone 3 have a length that elastically deforms upward in an open posture and the other end. Is joined to the bottom runner 13, and a fitting cylinder portion 14 that is fitted to the fitting convex portion 2 is erected on the upper surface of the bottom runner 13. A puller 15 made of a flexible cord is suspended.
In addition, a flat plate-like hanging hand 16 is swingably attached to every other joint seat 11, and the fastening margin is adjusted to be extendable by two fasteners 17 at each lower end of the hanging hand 16. The head engaging band 18 is locked, and a chin strap 19 is also provided.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the head-wearing umbrella A constructed as described above is opened when it rains and the drainage hose 10 is directed to the back of the face, and the head locking band 18 is locked to the head. The rainwater 20 is drained from the water retaining portion 8 at the lower end of the umbrella cloth 6 to the feet by the drainage hose 10. Since the posture worn on the head in this way makes the height significantly lower than the conventional posture with an umbrella in hand, it does not disturb the eyes of others in sports watching etc. The worry to others caused by dripping is also eliminated.
In the case of high school baseball (especially summer Koshien tournament), if the support seats are exposed to rain, the support seats in the hot weather, or if you are watching in the soccer J-League, the stand is the same support group. Therefore, a production effect such as unifying the color of the umbrella cloth 6 can be expected.

After wearing, as shown by the arrow a in FIG. 1, if the finger 15 is pulled down by pulling the puller 15, the elastic force of the receiving bone 12 is eliminated, and the fitting cylinder portion 14 of the lower cross 13 is made of the top 1. The first main bone 3 is disengaged from the fitting convex portion 2, and the engagement point of the skylight 1 is closed in the direction of the arrow mouth together with the center receiving bone 12 and the hanging hand 16, and the second main bone 5 is the connection point of the joint portion 4. It is folded in the direction of the arrow C around the center, and is folded compactly as a whole, tied together with the chin strap 19, or stored in a separate case (not shown) and carried in a convenient state for carrying.
In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, the water retention part 8 forms the lower end of the 2nd main bone 5 in circular arc shape, and while maintaining the water retention also in the disorder | damage of a wearing posture, it contacts with others by bending the front-end | tip. Safety of time is ensured.

  The head-wearing rain umbrella of the present invention can be mass-produced by improving a portable umbrella that can be folded and opened, so that it can greatly activate the umbrella manufacturing industry, and also supports sports watching as well as rain gear The sales channel can be expanded as goods.
