Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to an umbrella.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Umbrellas are roughly classified into long umbrellas and foldable umbrellas. Here, a long umbrella is the most commonly used and usually has a hook-shaped handle, but it is extremely inconvenient to carry because it is relatively long even when the umbrella is closed. In this case, the hook-shaped handles are intertwined with each other, which makes it difficult to put them in and out. Therefore, when carrying on a business trip or traveling, since the center rod can be expanded and contracted and the bones can be bent, the length becomes relatively short when the umbrella is folded and closed, making it easy to carry in bags, bags, etc. Folding umbrellas that can be stored are often used.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, the conventional foldable umbrella has a generally cylindrical handle and does not have a hanging portion in consideration of the convenience of accommodation in a bag, bag, etc. When carrying an umbrella in a car, such as a department store or a bank, without closing it and carrying it inside, it is difficult to hang it down like a long umbrella and hang it on a table. You cannot even hang it. Further, when the folding umbrella is provided with a hook-shaped handle, it becomes inconvenient to store it in a bag, a bag and the like, and as described above, it is troublesome to take it in and out of the umbrella storage place.

The present invention has been made in view of the above conventional problems, and an object of the present invention is to consider the convenience of accommodation in a bag, a bag, and the like, and without folding the umbrella. An object of the present invention is to provide an umbrella that can be drooped and grasped even when closed and carried, and can be hung by hanging on a table, etc. .

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above object, the umbrella of the present invention has an insertion groove portion formed in a handle, a hooking member having a shape corresponding to the insertion groove portion is attached to the handle, and the hooking member is inserted into the insertion groove portion. , It can be projected freely.

[0006]

[Action]

 If the hooking member is inserted into the insertion groove, the handle will perform the same function as before, and if the hooking member protrudes from the insertion groove, the hooking member will function as a gripping part or a hooking part. .

【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

The umbrella of the present invention is characterized by the structure of its handle portion, and has a latching member attached to the handle that can be inserted and ejected.

The umbrella 1 shown in FIG. 1 forms an insertion groove portion 3 extending from an upper surface portion 2 a of the handle 2 to a peripheral surface portion 2 b, and a hooking member 4 having a shape corresponding to the insertion groove portion 3 is inserted into the handle 2. It is attached so that it can project freely.

The insertion groove portion 3 is composed of an upper surface groove portion 3a, a peripheral surface groove portion 3b, and a locking groove portion 3c, and a fitting hole portion 5 is formed in the locking groove portion 3c.

The hooking member 4 connects the upper end of the peripheral surface abutting portion 4b to the rear end of the upper surface abutting portion 4a, and connects the upper end of the locking portion 4c to the distal end of the upper surface abutting portion 4a. The engaging portion 4c is formed with a fitting projection 6 that fits into the fitting hole 5. Further, the lower end portion of the peripheral surface contact portion 4b of the latch member 4 is fitted into the lower end portion of the peripheral surface groove portion 3b of the insertion groove portion 3 and is pivotally attached by a pin 7.

Therefore, the upper surface contact portion 4a, the peripheral surface contact portion 4b, and the locking portion 4c of the latch member 4 are respectively contacted with the upper surface groove portion 3a, the peripheral surface groove portion 3b, and the locking groove portion 3c of the insertion groove portion 3. As a result, the retaining member 4 can be fitted into the insertion groove portion 3. At this time, since the fitting protrusion 6 fits into the fitting hole 5, the hook member 4 does not easily project from the insertion groove 3.

On the other hand, by pressing the locking portion 4 c of the latching member 4 to cause the fitting protrusion 6 to come out of the fitting hole 5, and rotating the latching member 4 about the pin 7, As shown by the phantom line in FIG. 1, the locking member 4 can be made to project from the insertion groove portion 3.

Here, if the lower end surface of the peripheral surface abutting portion 4b of the hooking member 4 is made flat, this flat surface abuts the inner surface of the peripheral groove portion 3b of the insertion groove 3, so that the hooking member 4 4 can be made to project from the insertion groove 3 in a state of being rotated by approximately 90 ° with respect to the inserted state. If the lower end surface of the peripheral surface abutting portion 4b is an arcuate surface, the locking member 4 can be made to project from the insertion groove portion 3 while being rotated approximately 180 ° with respect to the insertion state.

In the umbrella 1 shown in FIG. 1, as shown in (B), since the upper surface contact portion 4a of the hanging member 4 crosses the central portion of the upper surface portion 2a of the handle 2, The lower end of the rod 8 is fixed near the peripheral portion of the upper surface 2a of the handle 2.

The umbrella 9 shown in FIG. 2 (A) has the other structure except that the tip of the upper surface contact portion 10 a of the latch member 10 does not reach the center of the upper surface portion 11 a of the handle 11. Umbrella 1 shown in 1 is completely the same.

In the umbrella 12 shown in FIG. 2 (B), the upper surface contact portion 13a of the hooking member 13 is branched into two parallel parts and contacts both sides of the center portion of the upper surface portion 14a of the handle 14. Except for this point, the other structure is exactly the same as the umbrella 1 shown in FIG.

In the umbrellas 9 and 12 shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the upper contact portions 10 a and 13 a of the hooking members 10 and 13 are located at the centers of the upper surfaces 11 a and 14 a of the handles 11 and 14. Since it does not traverse the portion, the lower end portion of the center rod 8 can be fixed to the central portion of the upper surface portions 11a, 14a of the handles 11, 14 as in the conventional case.

In the umbrella 15 shown in FIG. 3, an insertion groove portion 17 is formed over an upper surface portion 16a, a peripheral surface portion 16b, and a lower surface portion 16c of a handle 16, and a hooking member 18 having a shape corresponding to the insertion groove portion 17 is provided. It is inserted into 16 and attached so that it can project.

The insertion groove portion 17 is composed of an upper surface groove portion 17a, a peripheral surface groove portion 17b, a locking groove portion 17c, and a lower surface groove portion 17d, and a fitting hole portion 19 is formed in the locking groove portion 17c.

The hooking member 18 is composed of two members, a hook-shaped member 20 and a rod-shaped member 21. The hook-shaped member 20 connects the upper end of the peripheral surface abutting portion 20b to the rear end of the upper surface abutting portion 20a, and the tip of the upper surface abutting portion 20a, like the hooking member 4 of the umbrella 1 shown in FIG. The upper end portion of the engaging portion 20c is connected to the portion, and the engaging portion 20c is formed with a fitting projection 22 that fits into the fitting hole portion 19.

The rod-shaped member 21 has one end connected to the lower end of the peripheral surface abutting portion 20 b of the hook-shaped member 20 by a pin 23, and the other end connected to one end of the lower surface groove portion 17 d of the insertion groove portion 17. It is inserted into the section and is pivotally attached by a pin 24.

Therefore, the upper surface contact portion 20a, the peripheral surface contact portion 20b, and the locking portion 20c of the hook-shaped member 20 are respectively contacted with the upper surface groove portion 17a, the peripheral surface groove portion 17b, and the locking groove portion 17c of the insertion groove portion 17, By bringing the rod-shaped member 21 into contact with the lower surface groove portion 17 d of the insertion groove portion 17, the locking member 18 can be fitted into the insertion groove portion 17. At this time, since the fitting protrusion 22 fits into the fitting hole 19, the latch member 18 does not easily project from the insertion groove 17.

On the other hand, the engaging portion 20c of the hook-shaped member 20 is pressed to cause the fitting projection 22 to escape from the fitting hole portion 19, and the hook-shaped member 20 is rotated around the pin 23 to form a rod shape. By rotating the member 21 about the pin 24, the hooking member 18 can be projected from the insertion groove portion 17 as shown by a virtual line in FIG.

Here, if the other end surface of the rod-shaped member 21 is made a flat surface, this flat surface contacts the inner surface of the lower surface groove portion 17 d of the insertion groove portion 17, so that the hook-shaped member 20 is approximately 180 ° with respect to the inserted state. It can be projected from the insertion groove portion 17 in a rotated state. Further, if the other end surface of the rod-shaped member 21 is formed into an arcuate surface, the hooking member 18 can be projected from the insertion groove portion 17 until it is rotated by approximately 270 ° with respect to the insertion state.

In the umbrella 15 shown in FIG. 3, similarly to the umbrella 12 shown in FIG. 2 (B), the upper surface contact portion 20a of the hook-shaped member 20 branches into two parallel parts, and the handle 16 Since it comes into contact with both sides of the central portion of the upper surface portion 16a, the lower end portion of the center rod 8 can be fixed to the central portion of the upper surface portion 16a of the handle 16 as in the conventional case.

In the umbrella 25 shown in FIG. 4, an insertion groove portion 27 is formed across a lower surface portion 26a and a peripheral surface portion 26b of a handle 26, and a hooking member 28 having a shape corresponding to the insertion groove portion 27 is inserted into the handle 26. It is attached so that it can project freely.

The insertion groove portion 27 is composed of a lower surface groove portion 27a and a locking groove portion 27b, and a fitting hole portion 29 is formed in the locking groove portion 27b.

The latch member 28 has a lower end portion of the lower surface abutting portion 28 a connected to a lower end portion of the locking portion 28 b, and the locking portion 28 b is fitted with a fitting protrusion that fits in the fitting hole portion 29. The part 30 is formed. The rear end portion of the lower surface abutting portion 28a of the latch member 28 is pivotally attached by a pin 31 at one end portion of the lower surface groove portion 27a of the insertion groove portion 27.

Therefore, the lower surface abutting portion 28 a and the locking portion 28 b of the locking member 28 are brought into contact with the lower surface groove portion 27 a and the locking groove portion 27 b of the insertion groove portion 27, respectively, so that the locking member 28 is inserted into the insertion groove portion 27. Can be inserted into. At this time, since the fitting protrusion 30 fits into the fitting hole 29, the latch member 28 does not easily project from the insertion groove 27.

On the other hand, by pressing the locking portion 28 b of the locking member 28 to cause the fitting protrusion 30 to escape from the fitting hole 29, and rotating the locking member 28 around the pin 31, As shown by the phantom line in FIG. 4, the latch member 28 can be projected from the insertion groove 27.

In the umbrella 25 shown in FIG. 4, since it is not necessary to change the shape of the upper surface portion 26c of the handle 26, the lower end portion of the center rod 8 is centered on the upper surface portion 26c of the handle 26 as in the conventional case. Can be fixed to the part.

In the above embodiment, the material of the latching member is not particularly limited, but the weight of the umbrella is reduced, so that the fitting protrusion can be easily fitted into and removed from the fitting hole. Therefore, it is particularly preferable to use a light metal such as aluminum or a light and elastic material such as a synthetic resin.

Further, instead of forming the fitting protrusion, as shown in FIG. 5, a fitting member insertion hole 34 is formed at a position corresponding to the fitting hole portion 33 of the locking portion 32, and the fitting member insertion hole 34 is formed. A spherical or hemispherical fitting member 35 and a spring 36 are inserted into the fitting member insertion hole 34, and the elastic force of the spring 36 allows the fitting member 35 to freely project from the fitting member insertion hole 34. You may adopt the composition. By adopting such a configuration, the fitting member 35 can be easily fitted into and removed from the fitting hole portion 33, so that the latching member can be inserted into and projected from the insertion groove portion extremely smoothly. .

Next, a method of using the umbrella of the present invention will be described by taking the umbrella 15 shown in FIG. 3 as an example.

When the umbrella 15 is folded and stored in a bag, a bag, or the like when it is sunny and is carried, when it is opened and used in the rain, or when it is closed and stored in an umbrella store or the like, the upper surface of the hook-shaped member 20 is brought into contact. The portion 20a, the peripheral surface abutting portion 20b, and the locking portion 20c are respectively brought into contact with the upper surface groove portion 17a, the peripheral surface groove portion 17b, and the locking groove portion 17c of the insertion groove portion 17, and the rod-shaped member 21 is inserted into the lower surface groove portion 17d of the insertion groove portion 17. The hooking member 18 is inserted into the insertion groove portion 17 by abutting against.

When the hooking member 18 is inserted into the insertion groove 17, the hooking member 18 does not project from the handle 16, so that the handle 16 does not become bulky in a bag, bag, etc., and the handle 16 is gripped. It does not get in the way, and the hook-shaped members do not become entangled with each other in the umbrella storage place, so that taking in and out of the umbrella is not troublesome.

When carrying the umbrella 15 inside the train, bus, etc., department, bank, etc. without being folded and carrying it in the rain, it is necessary to press the engaging portion 20 c of the hook-shaped member 20 to fit it. The hook member 18 is rotated about the pin 23, and the hook member 20 is rotated about the pin 24 so that the hook member 18 is inserted into the insertion groove portion. It protrudes from 17.
