BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION When it is raining, a glass window of a door for getting on and off is opened by several cm, and a mounting spring portion of this support is fitted to a horizontal portion of a door glass upper end to close the window. Then, the verticality of the main body is obtained by the vertical adjustment screw using the restoring force of the spring in the spring plate attachment on the upper part of the support. Also, when holding an umbrella
When the shaft of the umbrella hits the window frame of the door, the position where the main body becomes vertical is obtained by the distance adjusting screw that widens the distance between the shaft of the rain umbrella and the upper end of the door glass. At this time, if necessary, the gap is expanded through the gap adjusting piece.

First, when getting off, open the door and open the umbrella,
Insert the handle (handle) of the umbrella into the handle support and the handle receiver. At this time, in order to facilitate the insertion / removal operation, loosen the gap adjustment screw a little and turn the main body horizontally to tighten the screw, so that the gap between the main body and the door of the main body (horizontal angle) Can be obtained.

In vehicles such as ordinary passenger cars having a low seat, that is, a door having a low ground height, in order to change the holding position of the umbrella upward, the grip support portion and the grip receiving portion are connected to each other by a joint pipe containing a spring. Use the attached one. In other words, insert the grip (handle) of the spread umbrella into the support and the receiving part, release the lock mechanism installed on the side of the joint pipe, and extend the joint pipe by the restoring force of the spring built into the pipe to hold the umbrella. Elevating the position makes getting on and off easier. In this case, when closing the door after getting off, after pulling out the umbrella from the support part, the upper end of the support part is pushed down and the joint pipe is contracted to the shortest to close the door.

At the time of riding, the door is opened and the grip (handle) of the spreading umbrella is inserted into the grip support and the receiver. In the case of using a connecting pipe as in the case of passenger cars,
Release the lock mechanism of the pipe to extend the joint pipe,
By raising the position of the support part, the holding operation of the umbrella and the riding are facilitated.

When the door is closed after getting on, the umbrella is pulled out from the supporting portion in the same manner as after getting off the vehicle, and the door is closed. In the case where a connecting pipe is used, after removing the umbrella from the supporting portion, the supporting portion is removed. Push down the upper end, shorten the joint pipe to the shortest and close the door.

Further, when the support is near a person's face during riding and if it feels a hindrance, it has a shaft for rotating the lower part of the main body outward (door glass surface), and a rotation lock provided on the side surface of the main body. By pressing the button and releasing the lock mechanism, the lower part of the main body can be brought close to the window surface.
