y invention'relates'ktoV improvements in umbrellas. c
The objects of my invention are toV providel a substantial umbrella which can be so cheaply constructed as to be available for advertising purposes or for sale at very low prices, f and which will withstand a moderate amount ofrain. ,l
I attain these objects by the means illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in
which,- l
' Figure 1 is averticalsection on the middle line of an umbrellaconstructed in accordance withmyinvention;l i -1 Figure 2 is a crosssection on the line 2-2 of Figure 1; i
Figure 3 is an enlarged sectional detail showing the slide and spring, for fastening same, but for clearness omitting the ribs.
Similar numbersrrefer to similar parts throughout theseveral views.
My umbrella comprises a handle, 1, in vtubular form and preferably .formed from a tube of pasteboard or. somefibrous material,
although any tubular` material of sufficient strength and lightness ma be used. The cover, 2, is prefera ly composed of a circular sheet of flexible, tough iaper which may be treated with water-proo ng material if desired. At'the center of the cover upon the upper face thereof, I re-enforce the cover by gluing thereto by water-proof glue( or otherwise suitably attaching thereto, a 'circular iece of cloth, 8, or other stron fibrous material, cutting same into sectors, 1 ,which may be pushed down into the upper, end of the tube, l, and secured therein bya plug, 9, which may be glued or otherwise suitably secured in the upper end ofthe tube, 1, andv *49 has a head which overlaps the upper end of the tube, 1. If desired, asimilar piece o f clotlior other re-enforcing material, 7, may
be similarly attachedto the under side of the cover with its inner edges 'extending 4 down into the upper end vof the tube, 1.
The plug, 9, and the re-enforcing strips,
8 and 7, are preferably attached to their adjacentparts by a waterroof lue or similar substance which'u-:wil not come loose when wet with water.
Aable material, 6,' and glued. or otherwise hole, 13, and reupon the yhan vI tibs, 3,.preferably'com osed .of thin, flat stri s of fwood, areunite to the under side of t e cover. 2, by Water-proof glue or other suitable means, and their-inner ends are ad-vr ditionally secured b the re-enforcing strip, 7.
f Braces,`4, have-t eir up r ends attached to .the lower face of the ri, preferably by strlps ofcloth, 5, which are secured by water-proof glue or other suitable means to the upper en dsof the braces,4, and tothe inter- 60 mediate portion of the ribs, 3.4 The 'lower ends oft e braces, 4, are similarly secured to a sleeve, 10, by strips ofcloth or other suitunited thereto.- Any Asuitablep-mater-ialfeither metal or fibrous, may be used for the sleeve,10, but I pefer to construct it in thevform of a pasteard tube, as vstock pasteboard tubes can readily be obtained and Vcutv to the desired` length, and will have suilicient strength to last as lo'ng as a single umbrella of this type is expected-to be'used.4 t '.lvoholes, 15 and 16, are formed in the side ofthe tube, 1. vHoles 13,]a-nd 14, are 75 also Aformed in the sleeve, 10,. and a spring,
12, preferably of spring wire, is secured to the sleeve, 10, byebei-ng passed-'throughthe vnt upon'v the upper endo the sleeve. j The lower end of they spring' has so a re-bent portion, 12', which'is adapted to enter the holes', 14, 15 and .16, whenever kregistering` therewith and the extreme lower end of the spring is preferably bent outwardly as shown in Figure 3, so 'as to allow the easy 85 insertion of the end of a'persons thumb under it for the purpose ofy pulling it out of the hole,15, or the hole, 16.
In theconstruction of my device,the, sec-` tors, 17, are bent downwardl upon the line 18 cof and secured inthe upper en of the tube, 1, by the plug, 9, the strips, Tand 8, firstl having been fastenedvto the" cover, 2, and the: ribs, 3, having been attached thereto., The braces,
f 1.4, are then. attached to the cover as described, l
andthe slide, 10, placed 1u von the-handle, 1,
Iand the lowerends of the Y. races, 4,`fastened thereto. `The spring, 12, is referia-bly placed upon the slide10,1before t e slide is placed le,".1. The, lower end ofthe 1"' handle, 1, is preferabl closed by a rounded plug, 11, which may glued orotherwise suitably secured therein.
If if is desired to use these umbrellas for advertising purposes, any suitable advertisement may be printed thereon and when desired to use them without advertising, they are preferably made of various attractive bri ht colors.
hese umbrellas can be constructedv at a price which will make them available to give away for advertising purposes and also may be available for sale at a low price at various ocean and lake beaches where some kind of a sunsbade is required. 'They also make an excellent protection from light rains for use in connection with convention parades and things of that kind where large numbers of peo le might desire to purchase a cheap umbrel a to be thrown away whenthey get through with it for that particular occasion.
I do not restrict my cover to paper, as cloth or other suitable brous material may be used and when the cover is strong enough, the central portion thereof may be cut into sectors and bent down and secured in the tube as described above without the re-enforcing strips,
I do not restrict my invention to the precise form of attaching the braces to the ribs and to the slide shown in the drawings, as same may be attached by securing the strips of fibrous material that formthe hinges to the ribs and braces by staples or other-means, or other forms of hinges such as hinges formed integral with wire staples ma be used to connect them, but I pre er the orm shown on account of its simplicity and the ease of attaching same.
The ribs are preferably formed to extend a little beyond the cover toprotect the cover, but when desired, they may be made a little shorter than the -cover and the edge of the cover frin ed or otherwise ornamented withoutdeparting from the spirit of my invention.
I claim:
1. In an umbrella, a hollow handleand a cover united thereto by a plug which wedges the central portion of the cover-into the upper end of the handle and secures sam therein.
2. In an umbrella, a hollow handle, a cover, a re-enforcing strip centrally attached to the cover having sectors at the center thereof turned downwardly and secured in the upper end of the handle.
3. In an umbrella, a hollow handle, acover, a re-enforcing strip centrally attached to the cover having sectors at the center thereof turned downwardly and secured in the upper end of the handle by a closely-fitting plug.
4. In an umbrella, a hollow handle, a cover, a re-enforcing strip centrally attached to the cover having sectors at the center thereof turned downwardly and secured in the upper end of the handle by a closely-fittingdplug glued within the upper end of the han 5. In an umbrella, a hollow handle, acover, a re-enforcing strip centrally attached to the cover having sectors at the center thereof turned downwardly and secured in the upper end of the handle by a closely-fitting lug secured in the upper end of the han e, said plug having an enlarged head.
6. In an umbrella, a hollow handle, a cover,
a re-enforcing strip cent-rally attached to the lowering the cover and securing it in either the raised or'lowered osition.
8. In an umbrella, t e combination with a hollow handle, of a plug fitted into the upper end thereof, a cover, a re-enforcin piece united to the cover at the center t ereof, with sectors of the cover and re-enforcing piece entered into the upy er end of the handle and secured therein by t e lug.
9. In an umbrella, a tubular pasteboard' handle, a cover, a re-enforcing strip centrally attached to the cover, and sectors of the cover and re-enforcing strip at the center thereof turned downwardly into and secured in the up er end of the handle.
n testimony whereof she aiixes her sig-- nature.
