COLIiAPSIBLE UMBRELLA,
Application filed September 12, 1927. Serial No. 219,123.
It is conclusive that umbrellas constitute luggage that seems to be in the way, especially when it is necessary to carry dress suit cases, brief casesand the like, therefore the present invention relates to an improved collapsible umbrella of such construction that it is possible to collapse or fold the same in small compass and carry it in the brief or dress suit case or in a similar carrier.
It is the purpose of the present invention to provide a very simple construction of a collapsible or foldable umbrella, wherein the ribs are telescopically constructed, and the stick composed of a plurality of telescopical sections, with means for holding the sections of the stick in different positions, said means to be actuated by a device or button adjacent c the handle of the stick, so that such holding means may be easily operated to release the sections, to allow the stays and ribs to collapse and the umbrella made into a small compass whereby it may be easily and conveniently placed in a brief or dress suit case, thereby in this'manner avoiding carrying an article or excess luggage separate from the brief or dress suit case.
It is to be understood that the particulars herein given are in no way limitive, and that while still keeping within the scope of the invention, any desired modification of details and proportions may be made in the construction of the apphance according to c1rcum-v stances.
The invention comprises further features and combination of parts to be hereinafter set forth, shown in the drawings and claimed.
In the drawings Figure 1is a view showing the umbrella collapsed or folded.
Figure 2is a sectional view through the same with the parts in the same position as in Figure 1.
Figure 3is a vertical sectional view through the umbrella open.
view through the two sections of the stick, showing the means for holding the handle section in different positions, and the connections with the manually actuated button or lever for operating the holding means, whereby one section may be adjusted relative to the other.
Figure 5is an enlarged detailed view of the runner which carries the'stays, showing a sitions.
. of the section Figure etis an enlarged detailed sectional device for holdingthe runner in different p0-,
' Figure 6is an enlarged detailed view of I one of the ribs showing'its telescopical connection between its sections.
Figure'7-is an enlarged detailed vertical sectional view through a portion of a stick showing parts of the two sections 2 and 3 and illustrating the means for holding the section 2 extended.
Figure 8is a sectional view on line 88 of Figure 7.
Figure 9'is a detailed vertical sectional view more clearly illustrating the dogs 31.
Referring to t e drawings, 1 identifies the umbrella stick, which consists of two sections 2 and 3. These sections are telescopically united and are tubular, and angular or square in cross section to retain the sections against rotation relative to each other yet permitting them to movefreely longitudinally. The section 3 carries the usual umbrella head 4, to which the ribs 5 are connectedby the usual wire 6, which is twisted in an approved manner thus preventing detachment from the ribs.
Each rib consists of two sections!) and 10, and are U-shaped in cross section, so that the tion 9, which has two guides or arches, 11 and 12,- through or under which the section 10 is moved, one of which lnn'its the movement of the section 10 of the rib.
' The stays 14" 13 to the inner endsof the sections 10 of the ribs. The stays are in turn pivot-ally connected by means of a wire 14 to a runner 15,
which is slidable on the sections of the stick. The runner 15 is pressed locking dog 17 pivoted at 18, and its nose passes through an opening in the runner and is designed to engage either the opening 19 near the handle 20 of the section 2 to hold the umbrella in a closed or folded position, or may engage with the opening 21 3 of the stick to hold the umbrella open. I i
' The section 3 of the stick is provided with opposite longitudinal slots 22, which are engaged by the spring pressed dogs 23 carried by the section 2 of the stick, the sprin means thereof being identified at 24 and eld in place as by the rods or pins '25. The dogs engage with the slots to limit the section 2 of the stick in its extensible position when the umbrella is open. However the dogs 23 are so arranged as not to prevent the tele scopical closing movement of the section 2 of are connected pivotally as at provided with a spring the stick. Howeve when'the section 2 f tion with a stick comprising tubular sections telescopically united, one section having opposite openings, the other section havingropposit-e openings, of a pair of pivot-ally united dogs at all times engaging through the second openings, a rod operatively associated with the dogs for extending and retracting the dogs into an outer engagement with the first 0 aenin s a device 0 eratlvel mounted 1n and carried by the sect-ion havmg'the sec- 0nd openings and in turn operatively connected to the rod for actuating the latter,and means for limiting the rod in its movement, whereby the first and second openings may approximately register, whereby the dogs may be extended into engagement with the first openings.
In testimony whereof he afiixes hlS signature.
