Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an umbrella and an umbrella set, and more particularly to an umbrella and an umbrella set that can be mounted on a body or a vehicle such as a bicycle or a motorcycle.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional technique of this type, there have been proposed a number of techniques in which an umbrella is attached to the body by using an attaching device.
Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 2-88519 proposes that the shaft of the umbrella is pulled in three directions by a band and fixed to the body.

In Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 50-149912, there is proposed a semi-circular Totte formed on the lower portion of the shaft of an umbrella, which is pivoted and hooked on the neck so that both hands are free. There is.

Further, in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 61-56601, curved rod-shaped tools attached to the shaft of an umbrella are attached to the shoulder,
Furthermore, by fixing the handle portion to the abdomen with a belt, it has been proposed that both hands can be freely held with an umbrella.

[0005]

However, the actual Kaihei 2-8
According to the technique disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 8519, the umbrella holding device itself is large and heavy. Therefore, when the rain stops, it is necessary to carry the umbrellas as baggage or keep them attached to the body and carry the umbrellas around, which is inconvenient to carry. Met.

Further, in the technique disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. Sho 58-149912, fixing the umbrella is unstable because the semi-circular Totte is merely hooked on the neck.

Further, according to the technique disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 61-56601, when the umbrella is not used, the curved rod-shaped tools project from the axial direction of the umbrella, which makes it inconvenient to carry and the fixation to the body is unstable. Conceivable.

As described above, the conventional technique of mounting the umbrella on the body has a problem that it is inconvenient to carry and the fixation to the body becomes unstable.

Further, conventionally, when the umbrella is normally used, the handle of the umbrella is grasped so that the arm is bent and the umbrella is lifted.
My arms were tired easily. Therefore, in order to comfortably use the umbrella, the center shaft may be placed on the shoulder and the umbrella may be pointed, but in this case, there is a problem that the front surface of the body is easily wet.

Further, in recent years, an umbrella holder for mounting an umbrella on a bicycle has been proposed, but the conventional umbrella holder is large in size, and the extension pipe and the holder body project upward from the upper surface of the handle. Is attached to the center of the handle. Therefore, when the umbrella is not attached, it is necessary to lower the extension pipe of the umbrella holder in order to ensure safety, which is very inconvenient. In reality, many people are driving a bicycle without lowering the extension pipe, which was very dangerous. Further, even if the extension pipe is lowered, the holder body still projects from the upper surface of the handle to the upper side, which not only obstructs the field of view but also hinders driving and cannot eliminate the danger. In addition, the umbrella holder itself is large and conspicuous, so it looks bad.

As described above, conventionally, a technique has been proposed in which an umbrella can be held according to various situations such as wearing the umbrella on a body or a bicycle, but in any case, there are problems, I couldn't comfortably use my umbrella.

Therefore, a main object of the present invention is to provide an umbrella and an umbrella set which can be comfortably pointed to in various situations.
