However, although the existing automatic opening / closing umbrella is convenient to operate, there is a hidden safety problem. Specifically, the opening spring mounted in the umbrella rod automatically opens the umbrella by elasticity when opening the umbrella, but its elasticity is large, and closes the umbrella and pushes the umbrella part back to the handle position, opening spring You must overcome the elasticity of. Moreover, the umbrella can be completely closed by pushing it back to the position. However, since the elastic force of the opening spring is very large, a situation where the force is insufficient and loosely opens in the process of being pressed and contracted easily occurs. At this time, the umbrella rod is automatically opened by the elastic force quickly. In the process of opening the umbrella pin by elasticity, the spring spring is very elastic, so it is easy to cause injuries due to inadvertent accidents, and even outside the country, the umbrella pin does not return to the position automatically when closing the umbrella. An accident has occurred that has been opened by elasticity and has resulted in injury. Therefore, how to solve the problem that the umbrella stick is automatically opened by the elasticity when the umbrella is not yet returned to the position in the process of closing the umbrella is a problem that is currently required for research in the umbrella industry. One.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides a safety device for an automatic opening / closing umbrella that can prevent a phenomenon in which an umbrella rod is inadvertently opened by elasticity when the automatic opening / closing umbrella is closed.

The technical solution of the present invention for solving the above technical problem is as follows. In the automatic opening / closing umbrella safety device, the main body installed in the handle of the umbrella includes a rotating shaft, a ratchet, a spring, a stereotaxic body, and a tension string. The rotating shaft is pivotally attached to the bottom of the main body, a ratchet is fixed to one end thereof, a spring is fixed to the other end, a few teeth are provided on the ratchet, and the outer end of the spring is fixed to the main body. One end of the stereotactic body is pivotally mounted on the main body, the free end is made to correspond to the ratchet teeth, and a projecting body is provided on the inside of the stereotactic body, and the projecting body extends from one side hole on the side wall of the main body to the shaft hole of the main body As well as the position when the hooking head provided in the middle rod of the umbrella shrinks back. One end of the above-described pulling string is fixed on the rotating shaft, and the other end is fixed on the upper loft of the upper end of the umbrella.

A reset elastic piece for returning the position of the free end of the stereotactic body and applying pressure to the upper part of the ratchet teeth is provided between the stereotactic body and the inner wall of the handle.

A through hole is formed in the hook head, and a pull string is passed through the through hole.

After adopting the above-mentioned method, the present invention installs a safety structure inside the handle of the umbrella. In the process of closing the umbrella and shortening the umbrella center rod by shortening, the lower end of the tension string continues to rotate on the rotation axis due to the elastic action of the spring. At this time, the ratchet teeth enter from the free end of the stereotaxic body so that the rotation of the rotating shaft is suppressed, the pulling string pulls the upper loft, and the umbrella's center rod is elastic. To prevent outward opening. That is, the present invention uses the unidirectionality of the ratchet, and when the umbrella is closed, the umbrella center rod only shrinks in the downward direction, and once the force to retract downward disappears, the pulling string is In the process of pulling the umbrella center rod and closing the umbrella, the downward pressure of the umbrella center rod disappears, preventing the accidental opening of the umbrella due to elasticity and further improving the safety of using the automatic opening and closing umbrella It becomes possible to raise.
