Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides an assembled secure runner for an umbrella that includes a connector and a base. The connector has a tube with two side rectangular openings and a joint bottom connected with the tube. Two elastic slices are provided on both sides of the base, each with a hooking end that can engage with the openings of the tube. The base also has an internal projection in a central hole. The connector and base are assembled together firmly to complete a secure runner. The technical effect of this invention is that it provides an easy and safe way to close and use an umbrella, with a connector and base that can be easily separated for repair without having to replace the entire assembly."

Problems solved by technology

The above-mentioned traditional designs although provide users to close the umbrella safely, but they include the runner and the sleeve, both of which are not separable after assembly.
If there is any fault in the runner, the runner or the sleeve is difficult to be repaired that always causes the umbrella broken and useless forever.

For example in U.S. Pat. No. 5,494,604, it discloses a safety runner, which make use of a slidable sleeve that has an internal flange at the upper portion thereof and rides on a runner element embracing the shaft. By means of a slide motion of the sleeve relative to the runner element, a resilient bow lever housed in the shaft being depressed by the internal flange to release the detention of the runner to close the umbrella in secure. Another conventional structure is shown in U.S. Pat. No. 5,615,698, which discloses a different runner with a sleeve to close the umbrella safely. [0002] The above-mentioned traditional designs although provide users to close the umbrella safely, but they include the runner and the sleeve, ...
