In this embodiment, the first connecting groove 111 and the second connecting groove 121 are relatively parallel and aligned with each other.
[0018] In this embodiment, one end of the first connector 1 is used to connect to the first umbrella rib 4 , the other end of the first connector 1 is used to connect to the pull wire 5 , and the second connector 2 is used to connect to the second umbrella rib 6 .
[0019] During assembly, the pivot 3 is placed obliquely within the spacing between the first connection groove 111 and the second connection groove 121, so that the two half-axes 31 of the pivot 3 are respectively obliquely leaned against one end 1111 of the first connection groove 111 and the other end 1211 of the second connection groove 121, and the second connecting member 2 is turned in one direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) so that the two half-axes 31 are respectively extended into the first connection groove 111 and the second connection groove 121, and then the assembly can be completed; if disassembly is required, the operation can be reversed. Therefore, the utility model has the advantages of being easy to assemble and disassemble, and can be repeatedly assembled after disassembly.
[0020] See also Figures 3 to 6 , Figures 3 to 6Disclosed is a second embodiment of an umbrella rib connector, comprising a first connector 1 and a second connector 2, wherein the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 are pivotally connected via a pivot 3; the first connector 1 comprises a first connecting piece 11 and a second connecting piece 12 which are arranged in parallel at a predetermined interval, a first connecting groove 111 along the length direction is provided on the first connecting piece 11, and a second connecting groove 121 along the length direction is provided on the second connecting piece 12; the pivot 3 is provided at one end of the second connector 2, and the pivot 3 and the second connector 2 are integrally formed, and the pivot 3 is divided into two symmetrical semi-axes 31 by the second connector 2; the first connecting groove 111, the second connecting groove 121 and the pivot 3 are configured such that the widths of the first connecting groove 111 and the second connecting groove 121 are greater than the diameter of the pivot 3, and the length of an oblique connecting line from one end 1111 of the first connecting groove 111 to the other end 1211 of the second connecting groove 121 is greater than or equal to the length of the pivot 3. In this embodiment, the first connecting groove 111 and the second connecting groove 121 are staggered with each other, and the overlapping distance after the staggered arrangement is equal to or greater than the diameter of the pivot 3 .
[0021] In this embodiment, one end of the first connector 1 is used to connect to the first umbrella rib 4 , the other end of the first connector 1 is used to connect to the pull wire 5 , and the second connector 2 is used to connect to the second umbrella rib 6 .
[0022] See Figure 5 and Figure 6 During assembly, the pivot 3 is placed obliquely within the spacing between the first connection groove 111 and the second connection groove 121, so that the two half-axes 31 of the pivot 3 are respectively obliquely leaned against one end 1111 of the first connection groove 111 and the other end 1211 of the second connection groove 121, and the second connecting member 2 is turned in one direction (clockwise or counterclockwise) so that the two half-axes 31 are respectively extended into the first connection groove 111 and the second connection groove 121, and then the assembly can be completed; if disassembly is required, the reverse operation can be performed. Therefore, the utility model has the advantages of being easy to assemble and disassemble, and can be repeatedly assembled after disassembly.
[0023] In this embodiment, the first connecting groove 111 and the second connecting groove 121 are arranged to be staggered with each other, and the staggered distance between the two is equal to or greater than the diameter of the pivot 3. In this way, it can be ensured that after the pivot 3 is extended into the first connecting groove 111 and the second connecting groove 121, due to the limiting effect of the end heads of the first connecting groove 111 and the second connecting groove 121, the pivot 3 cannot slide in the first connecting groove 111 and the second connecting groove 121. This is not only beneficial to the rotation of the pivot 3, but also prevents the pivot from sliding, thereby ensuring the uniqueness of the position of the pivot 3.
[0024] In the above two embodiments, the first connector 1, the second connector 2 and the pivot 3 are all made of plastic injection molding.
