UMBRELLA.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented July 23, 1912.
Application filed November 11, 1911. Serial No. 659,861.
T 0 all whom it may concern:
Be it known that we, JAMES AHERN and LESTER F REDERIGK, citizens of the United States, residing at Saranac, in the county of Clinton and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Umbrellas, of which thefoilowing is a. specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to umbrellas, and has for its object the provision of means for facilitating the attaching to and detaching of a cover from the frame of an umbrella.
With this and other objects in view this invention consists of certain novel constructions, combinations and arrangement: of
parts, as will be hereinafter fully described and claimed.
In the drawing: Figure 1 is a vertical section of an open umbrella equipped with our invention. Fig. 2 is a front plan view of the lower portion of one of the ribs employed. Fig. 3 is a longitudinal section of the lower portion of one of the ribs employed.
Referring to the drawings by numerals the ribs 11 of the umbrella are hinged at their upper ends to a collar 3 and these ribs are separated by braces 12 in the usual. manner. The ribs are U-shaped in cross section and their sides are compressed together as at 14 in Fig. 2., A hook member 15 is placed through the contracted portion of the rib 11 as illustrated in Figs. 2 and 3 and has one end thereof secured within the aperture 16 formed within the contracted portion of the rib. This end of the hook 15 is flattened as at 17 so as to prevent the hook 15 from being accidentally pulled from the rib 11. The contracted portion of the rib is punched inwardly as at 18' thereby firmly clamping the hook 15 in engagement with the rib. The outer end of the hook 15 passes from under the contract ed portion of the rib into the split portion and overhangs the punched portion 18 thereof. in this manner, a very etiicient book has been prmluccd whereby the rings I!) of the cover 30 may be securely held in engagement wilh the rib. The free end 21 of the book 15 is so spaced from the edge of the cmilrai-led portion of the rib as to make it necessary to force the ring 19 in order to have the ring placed within the hook. By making it necessary to force the ring within the hook, the ring will not be likely to become accidentally detached from the hook. Through the combined features of the overhanging hook 15 and the punched-in portion 18 of the rib, a very efficient pocket has been produced thereby forming a seat for the ring 19.. A number of tie bands 22 are carried by the seams of the several sections of the cover as is illustratedin Figs. 1 and 2 and these tie bands are'interposed between the outer edge and the center of the cover so as to allow the same to be tied around the ribs 11 in the manner as. illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2. The cover will therefore be firmly secured to the ribs of the umbrella through the combined securing means of the rings 19, tied strips 22 and clam 'iing nuts and collars 5 and 6. Of course, the umbrella cover 20 is provided at the center thereof with an aperture being adapted to fit over the upper end of the stick 1 and the collar 5 passes over the stick I and firmly binds the cover upon the rib engaging collar 3. The rings 19 are sewed to the edges of the cover at the proper place to engage the ends of the rim and since the cover 20 is at all times kept taut upon the ribs, the rings 19 will not become acci-- dentally disengaged from the hooks 15. It will therefore be obvious that even if the cover should become worn the same hooks may be detached from the worn cover and applied to a new cover with very little in- 4 convenience.
What is claimed 1s:- An umbrella, ribs U-shaped in cross section and having a compressed portion near securely to said rib.
In testimony whereof, we hereunto atlix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
