ANTON DAUN, OF PITTSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA.
FOLDING UMBRELLA.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented Jan. 19, 1909.
Application filed April 18, 1907. Serial No. 368,905.
To all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ANTON DAUN, a citizen of the United States of America, residing at Pittsburg, in the county of Allegheny and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Im rovements in Folding Umbrellas, of whic the following is a s ecincation, reference being had therein to t e accompanying drawing.
This invention relates to improvements in folding umbrellas, of that type designed to fold into a comparatively small space.
The object of this invention is to provide certain structural features in connection with an umbrella which will permit of the same being easily and quickly mani ulated, and manufactured at a comparative y small cost.
My invention aims to rovide an umbrella having a telescopic sticlk and folding ribs, novel means being employed for holding the telescopic stick in a closed or open position, also means for holding the folding sections of the ribs in extended position.
The detail construction entering into my invention will be hereinafter more fully described and then specifically pointed out in the appended claim.
Referring to the drawing forming part of this specification, like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, in which:
Figure 1 is a vertical sectional view of a portion of an umbrella constructed in accordance with my invention, illustrating the umbrella in a raised and open position, Fig. 2 is a similar view illustrating an umbrella as folded, Fig. 3 is a detail perspective view of a portion of one of the ribs of the umbrella, Fig. A is an end view of the same.
The stick A of my improved umbrella is constructed of a telescopic handle section 1 and a tubular ferrule section 2, the latter being adapted to slide into the former. The lower end of the tubular section 2 is provided with a resilient latch 3 adapted to engage in an opening 4 formed adjacent to the upper end of the telescopic section 1, the spring latch being employed for holding the sections of the stick in an extended position. To hold the section 2 within the section 1, I split and taper the upper end of the section 1, as at 5, and thread thereon a sleeve 6, the sleeve being adjusted to compress the split end of the section 1 upon the section 2, locking the section 2 within the section 1.
The tip section 2 is provided with a notched rcollar 7, and pivotally connected to said notch are the ribs of my improved umbrella. I have simply illustrated one of the ribs of the umbrella whereby the drawings will not be confused and will be clearly understood. Each one of the inner rib sections 8 is channel-shaped in cross section and has its outer end formed with eyes 10. The rib section 8 at a point adjacent to the eyes 10 is formed with apertured lugs 9, and said rib section at a point intermediate the lugs 9 and eyes 10 is provided with curved resilient arms 11, the object of which will presently appear. Pivotally mounted, as at 12, between the eyes 10 is a folding outer rib section 14, the inner end of said outer rib section lying in the channel-shaped rib 8 and being held therein by the arms 11, it being necessary to spread said arms in order that the inner end of the section can enter the rib section 8. The arms are also spread to permit of the inner end being moved out of the rib section 8 whereby the sections 14 can be folded backwardly upon said rib, as illustrated in Fig. 2 of the drawing.
Slidably mounted upon the umbrella stick A is a runner 15, said runner being held in a fixed or elevated position by a spring latch 16, carried by the section 2, and entering an opening 17 formed in said runner. The lugs 9 of the rib 8 has connected thereto at one end a stretcher 18 of a known construction, the other end of the stretcher 18 being pivotally connected to a runner 15.
It will be apparent from the illustration of my invention that the simplicity of construction permits of my invention being embodied in a low grade of umbrellas, thereby obviating an expensive commercial article. It is thought that the manner of manipulating the umbrellato open, close and fold the same will be readily understood without further description, and it is thought that such changes in the size, proportion, and minor details of construction, as are permissible by the appended claim, may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.
What I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is
A folding umbrella comprising a stick having a telescopic handle section and a ferrule section adapted to slide in the handle section, a notched collar carried by the ferrule section, inverted U-shaped inner rib sections pivotally connected to the notched collar and IIO each of which has its outer terminus bifurcated, said bifurcated terminus of each of said inner sections formed with a pair of eyes, each of said inner rib sections further having the longitudinal edges thereof provided at a point adjacent to said eyes with inwardly extending apertured lugs arranged in parallelism with respect to each other and each of said inner sections further having the longitudinal edges thereof rovided with inwardly extending curved resi ient arms arranged in parallelism with respect to each other and interpsoed between the lugs and the eyes, folding sections, each of said folding sections comprising a body portion terminating in an apertured enlargement extending in the bifurcated end of an inner section, each of said folding sections provided with an extension lofiea In testimony whereof l affix my signature 30 in the presence of two witnesses.
ANTON DAUN.
