[inventor 1 N l in case 0 a l roan rounpnrr'ro wrrnmm mama/1121., or WASHINGTON, nrsrnror. or coLUMBIaa" UNITED TA STATTNT oTTT-Qa fianitiv'rason, FLWAsHINGTON, DISTRICT-50F COLUUMBIA, assrejivoa orLoNE- To alZ-whb'rait mdykqoncem B it known-that I, THoMA's BERNT- so'N,* a citizen ofthe United States, residing at lVaShingtom-in the District of Columbia, have invented "new and useful Improvements in Umbrellas, of which the following is a specifications" The invention relates to an improvement in umbrllasfa'ird more'part-ic'ularly to the provision of sight openings in 'one o-r more of the cover panels. v Y
The main object of the'present invention is the provision of sight openings, one or more, in a panel of the umbrella cover, whereby to permit unobstructed vision of the user in any particular desired direction, when the umbrella is held in such position as, in the usual type of this article, to interfere with the vision of the user.
Another object of the invention is the. constructing of a transparent panel or section for securing in the cover in such manner as to permit a convenient and ready assemblage, without interfering with theusual folding and rolling of the umbrella, and at the same time rendering the connection water tight.
The invention in the preferred form of details will be described in the following specification, reference being had particularly to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-Figure 1' is a side elevation of an umbrella constructed in accordance with the invention, the same being shown raised. Fig. 2 is an enlarged fragmentary sectional view through the cover and one transparent panel thereon. Fig. 3 is a fragmentary lan view of the cover of the umbrella loo 'ng iannEL a. V 1'.
speciflcation'of Letters Patent. I. Pa tenfdlspij ,uz wApplicationfiledMarcli 2, 1siafiserialivo. 681,093. a I 9 cured the opening thus in:
transparent member 7, preferably of callus loid or similar material, which, while .tr'ans-f parent, is cap ble of'fiexible movement'toQ provide for folding and rolling of the umbrella,' without breakage of such sections:
It has been well known heretoifore'fto roaj; vlde peep holes. inv umbrella covers, and roa, tect said flholesi'w'ith transparent"sections,
and the presentimprovement. is directed more particularly to the manner in r fwhich. v the transparent sections "are prepared, so
that they may be secured in position in the opening provided in the cover, without difliculty, and in manner to' avoid undue thickness of material at't-he junction. To this end, and referring now particularly to Fig. 2, the transparent section is constructed by providing two comparatively thin sheets of celluloid which, while in a warm or glutinous state, are pressed together to form a unitary section. Prior, however, to the completion of the section in this manner, there is disposed between the marginal edges of the celluloid strips a tape-like length of fabric 8;. preferably, of course, of a material coriesponding in texture. and color to that of the umbrella for which the transparent section is designed. There is thus provided a transparent section having inefiect an integral part thereof a Ita or fabric projecting from the transparen inaterialbeyond and throughout the marginal edge thereof.
In.Fig. 4:, the panel is constructed in a manner-similar to-that previously described, except that in this instance the transparent material is of uniform thickness throughout, while in that previously described, that portoward the inner side thereof. Fig.4 is a on f he transparent material inwardly similar view showing a modification of the b y the ll edge 1 of less thlckness invention. than the remammg portion.
In the accompanying drawings, and with "The transparent section thus prepared particular reference to the same by numer- Hm ed t0 the margma-ledge of the o en ng als, the umbrella is of the usual type in all 5 by pre erably a double llne' of st1tc..1ng respects other than in the particular im- 11 and 12, the latter passmgthrough the provement, generally including a rod 1, hanremforce'dcdge 6 of the ,opemng, and the dle 2, and cover 3 made up of the usual f rmeI elng arranged remote fr0m sl 1ch panels 4 connected together. edge. An .eYen comparatively flat joining In providing the present improvement, is thus provided, which in nowise adds to one of the panels 4 is, at spaced points, out the bulk of the umbrella when the same is out to .provide an elongated substantiallyv f Gd' 91 r l triangular opening, at 5, the edges of which It Wlll be noted that the panels are of are folded upon themselves to provide reinelongated triangular form and extend to forced edges 6 for the usual purpose. Sepractically therem r ed edge of the cover 11-0 panel. This provides for a sight 0 ening in ractically any and all positions 0 the u1nlirella, and by arranging such transparent sections in spaced relation provides greater convenience and facility in their use. Again, and as a matter of convenience, it Wlll' be noted that in umbrellas having a. crooked handle, the transparent sections are disposed in the rearmost panel in the direc-v tion in which the crook or offset of the handle extends. By this particular arrangement, the 'umbrella, when held naturally when open, arranges the transparent sections in front, while when closed and carried in the natural manner, said transparentsections are in rear and therefore practically concealed from observation, even though the umbrella is not rolled.
The shape of the sections provides for a convenient rolling of the umbrella, without interference from the sections, which result is further added to by arranging the transparent sections on opposite sides of the median line of the cover panel, so that the natural fold of the anel, which is along this line, is not inter ered with by the sections.
Vhat is claimed is:
As an article of manufacture, a transparent section for'an umbrella cover, comprising a transparent strip having a fabric section embedded in the marginal edge thereof in the formation of such strip, said fabric section extending throu boat and projecting outwardly beyond sai marginal edge. In testimony whereof I afiix my slgnature in presence of two Witnesses.
