Definitions
- the present application is directed to umbrellas, and devices that have a radio incorporated into them and other similar devices.
- the invention deals with an umbrella with an integral radio set which has a loudspeaker system incorporated into it and which is supplied with power by a photovoltaic power cell, allowing normal use of the umbrella with its folding and unfolding operation.
- radios are torches, caps and cool boxes that have radios incorporated into them.
- devices that have a more conventional radio, such as portable televisions and others.
- the aim of the present invention with a radio incorporated into the umbrella is to provide a means of being able to listen to radio broadcasts whilst being protected from the sun or relaxing in the open air both in the city and equally in the country or on the beach.
- the present invention consists of an umbrella that has a complete radio incorporated into its construction with the energy supplied by a solar panel that makes it operate and in addition, makes the invention ecological.
- the umbrella has a tubular body or stem, with a point or peg at the bottom for its introduction into the ground and a piece of cloth assembled on a series of jointed ribs with a sliding device on the stem in order to open out the cloth and to fold it away.
- the umbrella has a radio in the tubular support body or stem.
- an integrated electronic circuit radio receiver is used.
- This circuit is controlled by simple push buttons and small revolving control knobs.
- Said circuit is housed on the inside of the hollow support tube of the umbrella.
- the push buttons are fit at a suitable height in a recess on the side, in such a way that the movement of the ring that pushes the ribs does not constitute an obstacle in any way for the stated buttons.
- These knobs or push buttons are for the control of the tuning and the volume.
- the umbrella ribs that extend the cloth when the umbrella is opened are fitted with two loudspeakers. These loudspeakers are of a size that are adequate to produce a clear and powerful sound, arranged in such a way that the umbrella can be folded up completely.
- the umbrella also has a connection for the use of earphones if it is desired or required to use the radio in a more personal manner.
- This connection can be in the tubular column next to the controls.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the umbrella opened up.
- FIG. 2 is a detail in elevation of the area of the control buttons.
- FIG. 3 is a detail in profile of the area of the control buttons.
- FIG. 4 is a sectional view in elevation of the umbrella.
- An umbrella includes a hollow, elongated, support stem or tube ( 1 ), at the top of which is a series of jointed ribs ( 3 ) arranged radially with a fixing ring ( 4 ) that slides up and down on the tube ( 1 ).
- a piece of fabric ( 2 ) Arranged on the ribs ( 3 ) there is a piece of fabric ( 2 ) which terminates at the jointed rib ( 3 ) ends in order to give maximum extension when the umbrella is opened.
- radio receiver circuit ( 7 ) On the inside of the hollow support tube ( 1 ) there is complete radio receiver circuit ( 7 ), connected to two loudspeakers ( 9 ) fit on the ribs ( 3 ) of the umbrella, and a photovoltaic cell ( 10 ) to provide the power.
- the two loudspeakers ( 9 ) are arranged in respective protective housings and are connected to the radio circuit ( 7 ) by suitable wires ( 13 ).
