The manual operation steps are cumbersome, and the opening and closing of the umbrella body are relatively cumbersome. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide an existing electric telescopic umbrella, which solves the problem that the telescopic umbrella is inconvenient to unfold and fold.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: an electric telescopic umbrella, comprising a column, a folding umbrella plate, a first connecting rod, a second connecting rod and a slider, the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are hinged, one end of the first connecting rod and one end of the second connecting rod are respectively hinged on the folding umbrella plate, the other end of the first connecting rod is hinged on the upper end of the column, and the other end of the second connecting rod is slidably arranged on the column through the slider, the electric telescopic umbrella also includes a first telescopic rod and a locking mechanism, one end of the first telescopic rod is hinged on the column, and the other end is hinged on the first connecting rod, so that the folding umbrella plate enters a folded state or an unfolded state after the first telescopic rod is extended and retracted to drive the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod to rotate along the hinge between the two, and the locking mechanism has an unlocking position and a locking position. In the unlocking position, the locking mechanism locks the slider relative to the column to maintain the unfolded state of the folding umbrella plate, and in the unlocking position, the locking mechanism releases the lock between the slider and the column to allow the folding umbrella plate to enter the folding state.

[0005] Furthermore, the locking mechanism includes a second telescopic rod, and the second telescopic rod is set on either the slider or the column, and the other is provided with a pin hole. When in the locking position, the second telescopic rod is plugged into the pin hole to position the slider on the column. After the second telescopic rod is separated from the pin hole, the locking mechanism enters the unlocking position.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the slider can be quickly positioned on the column through the plug-in cooperation between the second telescopic rod and the pin hole, thereby realizing the locking of the telescopic umbrella in the folded state.

[0007] Furthermore, a mounting hole is provided on the column, and the second telescopic rod is correspondingly installed in the mounting hole.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution and setting the mounting hole, it is convenient to position the second telescopic rod on the column to hide the second telescopic rod.

[0009] Furthermore, a protective sleeve is provided between the second telescopic rod and the inner wall of the mounting hole.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution and providing the protective cover, the wear of the second telescopic rod during assembly of the mounting hole can be reduced, the second telescopic rod can be effectively protected, and it is also convenient to replace the second telescopic rod by removing the protective cover.

[0011] Furthermore, a track is provided on one side of the column along its length direction, and the slider is slidably arranged on the track accordingly.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution and setting of the track, it is convenient for the slider to slide along the column.

[0013] Furthermore, the electric telescopic umbrella also includes a battery, a solar panel and a control box. The solar panel is arranged on the column, and the control box is used to control the movement of the first telescopic rod and the second telescopic rod.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the battery can control the box, the first telescopic rod and the second telescopic rod to supply power, and the solar panel can charge the battery, which is more environmentally friendly.

[0015] Furthermore, the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are hingedly connected in an "X" shape.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the hinged mode makes it convenient to unfold or fold the foldable umbrella plate when the second connecting rod moves along the column.

[0017] Furthermore, a fixing seat is hinged at the lower end of the first telescopic rod, and the first telescopic rod is positioned on the column through the fixing seat. When the folding umbrella plate is unfolded, the slider abuts against the fixing seat to limit the slider from further displacement along the unfolding direction of the folding umbrella plate.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the setting of the fixed seat has an advantage that it is convenient to utilize the detachable connection between the fixed seat and the column to facilitate the separation of the first telescopic rod and the column. The second advantage is that the bottom of the fixed seat can be used to abut against the upper end of the slider to play the role of limiting the slider.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the utility model are:

[0020] 1. The utility model provides a first telescopic rod between the column and the second connecting rod, and utilizes the first telescopic rod to extend and retract, so as to drive the first connecting rod to rotate along the hinge point between the first telescopic rod and the column, thereby forcing the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod to rotate along the hinge point between the two. At this time, after the slider is displaced along the column, the folding umbrella plate is switched between the folded or unfolded state. Thus, through the active extension and retraction of the second telescopic rod, the active opening or closing of the entire electric telescopic rod can be controlled, and no manual assistance is required throughout the process, which makes the operation more convenient and quick. At the same time, the setting of the locking mechanism utilizes its switching between the unlocking position and the locking position, so that when the telescopic umbrella is in the unfolded state, the slider at the end of the second connecting rod is locked with the column, thereby maintaining the unfolded state of the telescopic umbrella, thereby improving the structural stability of the umbrella body in the unfolded state and its wind resistance.

[0029] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Reference Figure 1 and 2The telescopic umbrella includes a column 100, a folding umbrella plate 200, a first connecting rod 110, a second connecting rod 120 and a slider 150. The first connecting rod 110 and the second connecting rod 120 are hinged in an "X" shape. One end of the first connecting rod 110 and one end of the second connecting rod 120 are respectively hinged on the folding umbrella plate 200. The other end of the first connecting rod 110 is hinged to the upper end of the column 100. The other end of the second connecting rod 120 is slidably set on the column 100 through the slider 150. The electric telescopic umbrella also includes a first telescopic rod 140 and a locking mechanism. One end of the first telescopic rod 140 is hinged to the column 100, and the other end is hinged to the first connecting rod 110. The hinge position between the first telescopic rod 140 and the column 100 is close to one end of the first connecting rod 110 facing the column 100. When the first telescopic rod 140 is extended or retracted, the first connecting rod 140 is driven to rotate. The rod 110 rotates around the hinge point between it and the column 100, thereby forcing the first link 110 and the second link 120 to rotate along the hinge between the two. At this time, the slider 150 slides relatively along the column 100, so that the folding umbrella plate 200 enters a folded state or an unfolded state. The locking mechanism has a locking position and an unlocking position. When in the locking position, it locks the slider 150 and the column 100. Then, when the folding umbrella plate 200 is in the unfolded state, the slider 150 and the column 100 are relatively locked, so that the second link 120 and the first link 110 cannot rotate around the hinge between the two, so as to maintain the unfolded state of the folding umbrella plate 200. Through the above arrangement, when the telescopic umbrella is unfolded, the locking between the slider 150 and the column 100 can be used to maintain the unfolded state of the telescopic umbrella, so as to improve the wind resistance and impact resistance of the telescopic umbrella.

[0031] In this embodiment, for the "X"-shaped hinge between the first connecting rod 110 and the second connecting rod 120, a through groove can be provided at the corresponding position of the first connecting rod 110, and then the second connecting rod 120 passes through the through groove, and then the two are penetrated by a pin shaft, and the two are hinged together.

[0032] In this embodiment, a track is provided on one side of the column 100 close to the foldable umbrella plate 200, and the slider 150 is slidably disposed on the track accordingly.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 As an embodiment of the locking mechanism, the locking mechanism includes a second telescopic rod 300, which is fixed to the column 100, and a pin hole 151 is opened on the side of the slider 150 corresponding to the position of the second telescopic rod 300. When the first telescopic rod 140 telescopically moves to drive the slider 150 to move upward along the column 100 and then fully open the telescopic umbrella, the pin hole 151 corresponds to the position of the second telescopic rod 300. The second telescopic rod 300 is extended to be inserted into the pin hole 151, so that the locking mechanism enters the locking position, and then the slider 150 can be quickly positioned on the column 100.

[0034] Based on the above embodiment, a mounting hole may be opened in the radial direction of the column 100 , and then the second telescopic rod 300 may be installed in the mounting hole to achieve a hidden connection with the column 100 , thereby effectively protecting the second telescopic rod 300 .

[0035] Furthermore, a protective cover 310 may be provided on the outside of the second telescopic rod 300, and then the second telescopic rod 300 may be inserted into the protective cover 310, and then the protective cover 310 and the column 100 may be screwed together by bolts. This may facilitate replacement and maintenance of the second telescopic rod 300 while protecting the second telescopic rod 300.

[0036] In the above embodiment, the second telescopic rod 300 is disposed on the column 100 and the pin hole 151 is disposed on the slider 150. Of course, the second telescopic rod 300 can also be disposed on the slider 150 and the pin hole 151 can be disposed on the column 100 to achieve the above effect.

[0037] Based on the above enlightenment, as long as the telescopic umbrella is unfolded (the unfolded state of the telescopic umbrella, that is, the unfolded state of the folding umbrella plate 200, such as Figure 1 As shown), the slider 150 is locked relative to the column 100. The locking mechanism can also be other structures. For example, a torsion spring can be arranged on the column 100, and a hook is arranged at one end of the torsion spring. The corresponding slider 150 is provided with a slot that cooperates with the hook's oblique wedge. When the slider 150 moves upward, the hook cooperates with the slot's oblique wedge, so that the hook squeezes the torsion spring to deform, allowing the buckle to enter until it is engaged with the slot. After the torsion spring is elastically reset, the hook is engaged with the slot, thereby locking the slider 150 on the column 100. When the telescopic umbrella needs to be folded, the hook can be moved to compress the torsion spring to separate the hook from the slot to allow the slider 150 to slide, and then after the first telescopic rod 140 is contracted, the telescopic umbrella is folded. Of course, the locking mechanism can also be other structures, which will not be described in detail here.

[0038] Based on the above embodiment, in order to facilitate limiting the distance of the slider 150 when it moves upward along the column 100, so as to avoid excessive expansion of the telescopic umbrella during deployment and damage to the corresponding components, a fixing seat 130 can be provided at the lower end of the first telescopic rod 140, and the lower end of the first telescopic rod 140 is hinged on the fixing seat 130, and then the fixing seat 130 is fixed to the upper end of the track by bolts or other installation methods. In this way, when the first telescopic rod 140 is displaced to drive the slider 150 to move upward along the slide rail through the first connecting rod 110 and the second connection, the slider 150 is used to resist the fixing seat 130, thereby limiting the continued movement of the slider 150, thereby achieving precise limiting of the telescopic umbrella when it is deployed. At the same time, the fixing seat 130 is screwed to the column 100, which is also convenient for maintenance and replacement of the first telescopic rod 140.

[0039] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 1 and 3 In order to facilitate the control of the first telescopic rod 140 and the second telescopic rod 300, a control box 410, a battery 420 and a solar panel 430 are also provided. The solar panel 430 is arranged at the upper end of the column 100, and is connected to the battery 420 through a wire 400. The battery 420 supplies power to the control box 410, the first telescopic rod 140 and the second telescopic rod 300 respectively. The control switch provided in the control box 410 is used to control the telescopic action of the first telescopic rod 140 and the second telescopic rod 300.

[0040] In this embodiment, the existing folding umbrella plate 200 is briefly described. The folding umbrella plate 200 includes an upper connecting seat 210, an upper support rod 220, a lower support rod 230 and a lower connecting seat 240. The upper support rod 220 spacer ring is arranged on the periphery of the upper connecting seat 210 and is hinged to the upper connecting seat 210. The upper end of the lower support rod 230 is hinged to the middle position of the upper support rod 220, and the lower end of the lower support rod 230 is connected to the lower end of the connecting rod 210. The end of the first connecting rod 110 away from the column 100 is hinged to the lower connecting seat 240, and the end of the second connecting rod 120 away from the column 100 is hinged to the upper connecting seat 210.

[0041] Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above, it should be clearly understood that the present invention may be modified and varied by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent substitution, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
