Abstract

(57) [Problem] To provide an inexpensive umbrella with a more compact size, safe and reliable waterproofing, and an inexpensive cover. SOLUTION: The umbrella body and the umbrella cover are not formed as an integral structure, and the umbrella body and the umbrella cover are joined at a portion that is safer in terms of waterproof, and inserted into the umbrella cover from the thinnest portion of the umbrella body. More compact and secure storage.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a structure of an umbrella, particularly an umbrella generally referred to as a folding umbrella because it can be folded compactly when not in use.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 As a conventional folding umbrella with a cover, for example, Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-119019 discloses an umbrella as shown in FIGS. This umbrella is formed integrally with an umbrella body, a handshake device also serving as an umbrella cover, and a tip device. When used, the umbrella body slides along a guide of the umbrella cover to open and use the umbrella. Japanese Utility Model Application No. 9-3600 discloses a folding umbrella with a cover as shown in FIGS. This umbrella is composed of an umbrella body and a handshake that also serves as an umbrella cover.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 However, since the umbrella shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 has an integral umbrella cover and main body, a mechanism for sliding the main body along with a guide is required, which increases the weight, causes a failure, and requires maintenance. The umbrella body must be specially developed. Further, in the umbrella shown in FIGS. 8 to 11, since the joint portion of the cover that becomes the original handle and the handle is the same as the joint portion when used as a cover, the size of the umbrella cover is smaller than that of the umbrella body. In addition to being limited and enlarged at the largest part, the parts that require waterproofing are the most stressed, the joints are deteriorated, and there is a risk of water leakage when the umbrella body is stored after use in rainy weather.

[0004] The present invention has been made in view of the problems of the prior art, and has as its object a more compact size, which is safe, reliably waterproof, and inexpensive. Umbrella with a special cover.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the umbrella in the present invention does not have an umbrella body and an umbrella cover as an integral structure, and the umbrella body and the umbrella cover are joined at a safer part for waterproofing. By inserting the thinner part into the umbrella cover, it is possible to store it in a compact size.

[0006]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows the structure of the umbrella. The umbrella according to the present embodiment is composed of an umbrella body 2, a handshake device 3 also serving as an umbrella cover, an umbrella cover lid 4, and an umbrella cover lid connecting cord 5 also serving as a handle. It has become. The umbrella body 2 is an umbrella body of a conventional folding umbrella whose handshake is screw-tight. The handshake device 3 includes a cylindrical body 6 having a circular cross section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, and a lid 4 for closing one end opening of the cylindrical body 6 in a closed state. The body 6 and the lid 4 are connected by a string 5 also serving as a handle. On the non-opening side of the cylindrical body, a female screw 10 is provided which matches the male screw of the conventional folding umbrella in which the handshake is screw-type, and the handgrip in the conventional folding umbrella is removed before use. The tip of the handle is screwed in. The tubular body 6 is made of a material capable of internally storing the umbrella body 2 wet with rain, for example, a synthetic resin, and has a thickness such that it is firmly gripped and does not break even when blown by a strong wind. It has been. The lid 4 is fitted into the cylindrical body 6 from the other end side so that the opening can be closed. The cord 5 connects the tubular body 6 and the lid 4 so that the lid 4 is not lost, and serves as a handle in use and storage. Hereinafter, the operation of the umbrella according to the present embodiment will be described. When the non-use umbrella 1 shown in FIGS. 2 and 3 is used, first hold the handshake tool 3 as an umbrella cover with one hand, hold the lid 4 with the other hand, and hold the cylindrical body 6. Pull out the umbrella body 2 stored inside. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 4, the male screw at the end of the handle 7 of the umbrella body 2 is screwed into the female screw 10 provided on the side of the tubular body 6 other than the opening. Then, the lid 4 is inserted into the cylindrical body 6 and the lid is closed. The subsequent operation is the same as using a conventional type umbrella. The handle 7 of the umbrella body 2 is stretched, and the top 8 wound around the handle 7 is opened and then opened. Next, when the open umbrella is to be stored, the top 8 is first folded, then wound around the handle 7, and then the handle 7 is contracted, as in the case of the conventional umbrella. Next, the lid 4 attached to the cylindrical body 6 is removed. Thereafter, the umbrella body 2 is removed from the tubular body 6 and the umbrella body 2 is accommodated in the tubular body 6 from the handle. As a result, the umbrella body 2 is completely accommodated in the substantially completely closed cylindrical body 6 by the tubular body 6 and the lid 4, so that the umbrella body 2 is wetted by rain or the like. Even if it does, the raindrops are retained inside and will not leak out. That is, the user carries the umbrella in a bag or the like by storing the umbrella main body 2 in the handshake device 3 as an umbrella cover, even if the umbrella is wet once in the rain. Is possible. As shown in FIG. 5, the volume of the umbrella cover can be minimized by using the cylindrical body 6 in which the upper end of the cylinder is conically narrowed so as to reduce its diameter.

[0007]

[Effect of the invention]

 According to the present invention as described above, there is no need for a mechanism for sliding the umbrella, light weight, good maintenance, low cost, and there is no need to develop a dedicated umbrella. Furthermore, there is an effect that an umbrella can be provided in which the size of the umbrella cover is minimum and a force is not applied to a part where waterproof performance is required, and there is no risk of water leakage.
