Description

DESCRIPTION

Detachable umbrella

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION

The invention, as the title of this specification indicates, is a detachable parasol that allows for compact storage. This innovation offers advantages previously unknown within current technologies.

TECHNICAL SECTOR

The present invention falls within the sector of everyday life needs in personal use objects or travel items, especially walking sticks, umbrellas or parasols, fans or similar objects for ladies, as well as in special or telescopic folding of umbrellas.

STATE OF THE ART

The present invention arose from the observation that during vacations, transporting traditional umbrellas is inconvenient due to their impractical shape and bulky size.

These umbrellas, which are characterized by being large and unwieldy, take up considerable space in vehicle trunks, making them difficult to transport and store.

This situation not only creates inconvenience when packing and organizing luggage, but also limits the comfort of those who want to take their luggage to beaches, parks, or other destinations.

In response to this inconvenience, this invention provides a detachable umbrella whose components compact together to allow easy and efficient transport, taking up much less space and making it easy to store in a bag.

Currently, there is no known detachable umbrella that has structural and constitutive technical characteristics equal to or similar to those described in this specification, as claimed.

DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The object of the present invention is the creation of a removable parasol that provides a notable innovation within its field of application in the current state of the art, the characterizing details that make it possible being conveniently included in the final claims that accompany this description.

The invention relates to a detachable umbrella that includes a canopy that folds onto itself and unfolds to connect to an extendable handle via a detachable coupling system, which is attached to the center of the canopy. Furthermore, the umbrella is generally presented in a bag designed to store all its components compactly, optimizing the available space.

This invention solves the problem of the inconvenience and difficulty of transporting traditional umbrellas, which are often bulky and difficult to store in small spaces, such as vehicle trunks.

The practical benefits of this invention are reflected in its ability to optimize space in vehicles and other storage areas, allowing greater flexibility when packing.

In addition, the umbrella's easy assembly and disassembly improves its convenience and efficiency, offering a more comfortable and accessible experience for the user in a variety of situations.

The detachable umbrella can incorporate a flat canopy with a central cavity and a flexible ring, forming a fabric that can be folded into eight or pop-up. This design facilitates a significant reduction in the umbrella's initial size, allowing it to maintain a compact shape when folded.

Additionally, the cover can be made of a waterproof and tear-resistant fabric, such as waterproof polyester. This material offers properties that enhance its durability and functionality, especially when exposed to weather elements such as water and wind.

The extendable handle could be composed of several parts, such as an upper section, a middle section, and a lower section, all of which can be connected to each other. These sections would be made of lightweight, durable materials, such as aluminum or reinforced plastic, giving the umbrella a sturdy yet lightweight structure that's easy to transport and handle.

For example, the shape and size of the outer portion of each section would fit into a longitudinal recess in the next section. The handle sections, in some cases, may be configured to fit together using a lever-locking mechanism. This mechanism ensures that the assembled handle remains extended and firm during use, providing stability and ease when manipulating the umbrella in different positions.

Conveniently, the upper section could have a male thread at its top end, which would engage the cover's coupling system. Its opposite end, on the other hand, would be designed to insert into the upper opening of the intermediate section. This modular design facilitates quick and easy assembly.

The middle section could have a lever-locking mechanism at its top end, while its bottom end could be inserted into the inner hole of the lower section at a variable length, defining the total length of the umbrella. This modular structure allows the handle to be adjusted to suit the user's needs.

In the lower section, the lever-locking mechanism would be located at the top, while the opposite section could include a threaded strut. This strut would be intended to be driven into the sand, providing additional stability to the umbrella when used in outdoor locations such as beaches or parks.

Finally, the coupling system between the sections and the canopy could incorporate a female-threaded nut, accompanied by upper and lower washers. In this case, the male thread of each section would pass through the washers and the hollow of the canopy to connect with the female thread of the nut on the next section. This design ensures a stable and simple connection, allowing for quick and easy assembly and disassembly of the umbrella.

To use the detachable umbrella, the user must unfold the canopy and connect it to the extendable handle using the docking system. By adjusting the handle to the desired height, the user can secure the umbrella in position using the locking mechanism.

The lightweight, durable construction makes it easy to handle and transport, while the foldable design allows it to be stored compactly in your bag.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION.

The detachable parasol includes a canopy (1) that folds over itself and unfolds to connect to an extendable handle (2) via a detachable coupling system (3), which attaches to the center of the canopy (1). This design allows the parasol to be compact and easy to store. The included bag (4) is designed to store all the elements in an orderly and efficient manner, optimizing the available space.

In a preferred embodiment, the cover (1) has a flat configuration with a central cavity (1.1), composed of a flexible outer ring that surrounds a fabric that folds in eight or pop-up, which facilitates the significant reduction of its initial size and ensures that it maintains a compact shape when folded.

Preferably, the cover (1) is made of a waterproof and tear-resistant fabric, such as waterproof polyester, which provides greater durability and protection against inclement weather.

In another preferred embodiment, the extendable handle (2) is composed of three sections: an upper section (2.1), an intermediate section (2.2) and a lower section (2.3). These sections are made of light but resistant materials, such as aluminum or reinforced plastic, which ensures the robustness and lightness of the handle, facilitating its use and transport.

Preferably, the upper (2.1), intermediate (2.2) and lower (2.3) sections are configured to be coupled together by means of a mutually securing lever (2.4) locking mechanism, which ensures that the extendable handle (2) remains extended and firm during use of the umbrella.

In another preferred embodiment, the extendable handle (2) has at its upper end, generally constituted by the upper section (2.1), a male thread (2.5) that couples to the coupling system (3), while its opposite end is free of surrounding elements to facilitate its insertion into the upper mouth of the intermediate section (2.2).

Generally, the intermediate section (2.2) has a lever locking mechanism (2.4) at its upper end, while its lower end is designed to be inserted into the internal hole of the lower section (2.3) without additional elements around it.
