  The above-mentioned binding strip has the advantage of holding the closed umbrella in a folded state and winding it, making it easier to carry.On the other hand, when the umbrella is opened, it hangs down from the umbrella cloth and gets in the way. is there.

  The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and provides a folding western umbrella that can hold a binding band on an inner surface of an umbrella cloth while the umbrella is opened.

  Therefore, the present invention is configured as a means by radially pivoting the ribs composed of a base rib and a tip rib which are reciprocally connected to each other radially with respect to the upper rock, and pivotally connecting the ribs with the lower rock. Is connected to the base ribs, the ribs are opened by raising the lower wheel, and the ribs are closed by lowering the lower wheel.The ribs consist of a piece of cloth with seams along each rib. Umbrella cloth stretched over the umbrella cloth, wherein the umbrella cloth has a base end of a strapping band on an inner surface that faces downward when the umbrella is opened and is located at a peripheral portion located between adjacent ribs. When closing the umbrella, the umbrella cloth and the frame structure are wound and held by the binding band in a state where the front rib is turned outward with respect to the base rib at the time of closing the umbrella, and provided near the tip of the binding band. The locking means is detachably engaged with a locked means provided near the base end of the binding strap. In the folding western umbrella configured to perform the above, a sheet piece provided with a second locked means capable of engaging and disengaging the locking means of the binding strap at the time of opening the umbrella is provided on the inner surface of the umbrella cloth. By sewn through the seam and locking the binding unit of the binding band to the second locked unit, the binding unit is held in an overlapping state on the inner surface of the umbrella cloth.

On the other hand, according to the present invention, the sheet piece provided with the second locked means can be sewn using the seam of the cloth piece constituting the umbrella cloth, so that the appearance is beautiful. Moreover, since the sewing process of the sheet pieces can be performed simultaneously with the sewing process of the umbrella cloth by sewing the sheet pieces, there is an effect that the cost in the manufacturing process is not increased.

  Hereinafter, the configuration of the above-mentioned conventional folding umbrella will be described with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4, and then a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. FIG.

(Prior art)
As shown in FIG. 3, the folding umbrella is pivotally connected to an upper wheel 2 fixed to the upper end of a center rod 1, a lower wheel 3 slidably mounted on the center rod 1, and an upper wheel 2. From a base rib 4 extending radially from the base end and a receiving bone 5 extending radially from the base end pivotally connected to the lower wheel 3, and an umbrella cloth 6 stretched over the main rib 4. It is configured.

  The middle rod 1 is attached to a tail end of the handle 1x, and is configured of a multi-stage telescopic split rod. In the case of the example shown in the figure, three dividing rods 1a, 1b, 1c are connected in a nested manner, but the number of divisions is not limited.

  The prosthetic bone 4 is composed of a prosthetic rib 4a whose base end is pivotally connected to the upper wheel 2, and a front prosthesis 4b which is connected to the base rib 4a so as to be freely refracted. It is connected to the rib 4a. Therefore, the frame structure is configured to open the ribs 4 by raising the lower wheel 3 and close the ribs 4 by lowering the lower wheel 3. In the example shown in the figure, the base rib 4a is further divided because of a topless type frame structure, and is connected by connecting bones (not shown). However, the configuration is limited to such a configuration. Not something.

  The umbrella cloth 6 is formed by sewing a substantially triangular cloth piece 6a having a stitch (not shown) along each rib 4. The thread (not shown) is attached to the rib 4 at the stitch portion. Has been moored through. In addition, the umbrella cloth has the base end 7a of the binding band 7 fixed to the peripheral portion 6b located on the inner side surface facing downward when the umbrella is opened and between the adjacent front ribs 4b, 4b.

  As shown in FIG. 3 (B), the binding strip 7 is provided with the locking means 8 on the surface near the base end (the surface that faces downward when the umbrella is opened), and the back surface near the tip end (the opposite surface to the front surface). ) Is provided with locking means 9. The locking means 9 and the locked means 8 are means capable of engaging and disengaging from each other, and in the illustrated example, are constituted by hook-and-loop fasteners, but are constituted by snap hooks or other means. Is also good.

  Therefore, such a folded western umbrella is folded so as to be compact as shown in FIG. 4 after closing the umbrella. That is, as shown in FIG. 4 (A), the center rod 1 is contracted, and the front rib 4b is bent outwardly with respect to the base rib 4a, and at the same time, folded between the adjacent front ribs 4b, 4b. The peripheral edge portion 6b of the bent umbrella cloth 6 is aligned in one circumferential direction, and in this state, the binding band 7 is wound around the outer periphery. At this time, the locking means 8 at the base end of the binding band 7 is positioned outward, and the locking means 9 at the distal end is opposed to the locking means 8, so that FIG. When the locking means 9 is locked to the locked means 8 as shown in (1), the umbrella cloth and the skeleton structure are held in a folded state by the binding band 7.

  In order to open the umbrella using the western umbrella from the folded state, the binding means 9 is detached from the locked means 8 to open the binding band 7, and then the leading rib 4b is expanded with respect to the base rib 4a. When the inner rod 1 is extended and the lower wheel 3 is pushed up, an open state as shown in FIG. 3 is obtained. In this open state, the binding strip 7 hangs long from the inner surface of the umbrella cloth 6 from the base end 7a to the tip 7b.

(Embodiment of the present invention)
As shown in FIG. 1, the present invention is implemented by adding a sheet piece 11 provided with a second locked means 10 without changing the basic configuration of the conventional folding umbrella as described above.

  The sheet piece 11 is sewn through the seam of the cloth piece 6a constituting the umbrella cloth 6, so that the sewn portion is hidden by the ribs 4b. The second locked means 10 enables the locking means 9 of the binding strip 7 to be releasably lockable, and therefore has the same configuration as the locked means 9. For example, when the locking means 9 of the binding strip 7 is constituted by a male piece of a hook and the locked means 8 is formed by a female piece of a hook, the second locked means 10 is also formed of a female hook. It is composed of pieces. Alternatively, as shown in the figure, when the locking means 9 of the binding band 7 is formed by a hook sheet of a hook-and-loop fastener and the locked means 8 is formed by a loop sheet of a hook-and-loop fastener, the second The locking means 10 is also formed by a loop sheet of a hook-and-loop fastener. In the case of the hook-and-loop fastener, the loop sheet is provided with the second locked means 10 and the sheet piece 11 integrally.

  Therefore, according to the present invention, as shown in FIG. 2, in the opened state, the user grips the binding band 7 with a fingertip and locks the locking means 9 to the second locked means 10. Then, the binding band 7 is held in an overlapping state on the inner surface of the peripheral edge 6b of the umbrella cloth 6, and does not protrude from the peripheral edge 6b. Therefore, unlike the conventional case, the binding band 7 does not hang down. In addition, since the locking means 9 and the second locked means 10 are detachable, when the umbrella is closed and folded, the locking means 9 is removed from the second locked means 10. Thus, the binding band 7 can be used for original binding.

FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a main part of the folding western umbrella according to the embodiment of the present invention in an opened state; FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the entire folding umbrella according to the embodiment of the present invention. It is the perspective view which shows the opened state of the conventional folding umbrella, (A) is a perspective view which shows the whole, and (B) is a perspective view which shows the strap for binding. It is a front view showing the state before bundling the strap for bundling, and (B) is the front view showing the state where it was tied up before folding up the folding umbrella of the conventional folding umbrella.
