Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of folding umbrellas, in particular to a large-size membrane structure folding umbrella with a double folding mechanism. Background Art
[0002] Parasols are widely used in modern garden design, park design, seaside sun protection design, and many catering sun protection and rain protection aspects. However, traditional parasols of this type are mostly fixed in shape. On the one hand, such parasols are expensive and difficult to install. At the same time, they cannot be moved and have poor flexibility. This type of fixed parasol has poor wind resistance when encountering strong winds and typhoons, especially in the design of seaside sun protection structures. Traditional foldable parasols, because they need to be opened and closed manually, their maximum size basically does not exceed 5 meters in height. For the custom design of parasols that need to exceed 5 meters, or even 10 meters or 20 meters, how to fold the large-sized beams is another technical problem, and what kind of sun protection and rain protection structure to use is also a technical problem. If traditional panels are used as sunshade materials, the material properties are difficult to meet, and the engineering workload will be huge. It is also necessary to consider the folding and unfolding structure, and its assembly will be more complicated. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0025] The present invention is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that, under the premise of no conflict, the various embodiments or technical features described below can be arbitrarily combined to form a new embodiment.
[0026] refer to Figures 1 to 10 :
[0027] The utility model discloses a large-size membrane structure folding umbrella with a double folding mechanism, comprising a support column 10, a main body membrane 20 and an umbrella frame 30, wherein the umbrella frame 30 is movably mounted on the support column 10, and the upper and lower ends of the main body membrane 20 are connected to the umbrella frame 30 and are opened and closed in conjunction with the umbrella frame 30, and the upper end of the support column 10 is also telescopically connected to a power rod 1, that is, the power rod 1 is sleeved or plugged into the outer side or inner side of the upper end of the support column 10, and the power rod 1 relies on a power device 2 arranged on the inner side of the support column 10 to provide power for lifting relative to the support column 10, and the umbrella frame 30 comprises an upper folding umbrella frame 330 and a lower folding umbrella frame 430, one end of the upper folding umbrella frame 330 is hinged to the upper end of the power rod 1, and the other end is hinged to one end of the lower folding umbrella frame 430, and the upper and lower ends of the lower folding umbrella frame 430 are both hinged. The telescopic umbrella frame is sleeved on the support column 10 and relies on the upper support umbrella frame 30 to provide power for folding and unfolding. Specifically, the upper folding umbrella frame 330 includes an upper connecting plate 31 and an upper support rod 32, and the lower folding umbrella frame 430 includes an outer cantilever beam 41, a lower support rod 42 and a lower connecting plate 43. The upper connecting plate 31 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the power rod 1, the upper end of the upper support rod 32 is hinged to the upper connecting plate 31, and the lower end is hinged to the upper end surface of the outer cantilever beam 41 near the inner end, the inner side / inner end of the outer cantilever beam 41 is hinged to the cantilever beam connecting plate 401, the upper end of the lower support rod 42 is hinged to the bottom end surface of the outer cantilever beam 41 near the outer end, and the lower end is hinged to the lower connecting plate 43, the cantilever beam connecting plate 401 and the lower connecting plate 43 are both sleeved on the support column 10, and the cantilever beam connecting plate 401 is located at the upper end of the lower connecting plate 43.
[0028] The cantilever beam 41 includes an outer folding portion 411 and an inner folding portion 412. The outer folding portion 411 and the inner folding portion 412 are hinged through a first hinge point 301. In a specific installation structure, the upper end of the lower support rod 42 is hinged to the outer folding portion 411, and the outer folding portion 411 is hinged to the inner folding portion 412. Therefore, there are two hinge points on the cantilever beam 41. The upper end of the lower support rod 42 is hinged to the cantilever beam 41 through a second hinge point 302, and the lower end is hinged to the lower connection disk 43 through a third hinge point 303. The inner side of the cantilever beam 41 is hinged to the cantilever connection disk 401 through a fourth hinge point 304.

All the above hinge points are rotatable structures. For example, a rotating shaft is installed in the middle of both sides. In the first hinge point 301, the hinged parts of the outer folding portion 411 and the inner folding portion 412 are prone to cross. Here, the diameters between the outer folding portion 411 and the inner folding portion 412 can be made different, and one side can wrap the other side to solve the crossing problem.
[0029] Specifically, the power device 2 is a hydraulic cylinder assembly, including a hydraulic cylinder and oil pipes. The oil pipes include an input oil pipe and an output oil pipe. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder is connected to the power rod 1 (or the hydraulic cylinder is directly integrally formed with the power rod, or the power rod is directly used as a piston-type hydraulic cylinder). The input oil pipe and the output oil pipe are both connected to an oil station or an oil pump to provide power for the oil cylinder. During installation, the hydraulic cylinder mechanism is installed inside the support column 10 in advance, and the power rod 1 is installed under the condition of meeting the sealing requirements. At the same time, the input oil pipe and the output oil pipe are buried underground. The support column 10 adopts a buried installation structure, and finally tightened with bolts. Specifically, the installation method of street lights can be referred to.
[0030] In other alternative embodiments, the power device 2 is a motor screw rod assembly (not shown in the figure), including a stepping motor and a screw rod / screw. The upper end of the screw rod is fixedly connected to the power rod 1, and the lower end is connected to the stepping motor. The stepping motor preferably adopts a through screw type stepping motor. The stepping motor is installed inside the support column 10. The rotation of the stepping motor can drive the screw rod to slide up and down, thereby driving the upper power rod 1 to expand and contract.
[0031] Specifically, the outer ring of the main body film 20 is connected to the outer side of the outer cantilever beam 41 through the film fixing mechanism 5, and the inner ring is fixed by the bottom chuck 431. The bottom chuck 431 is arranged at the lower end of the lower connecting plate 43 and is linked with it. Here, the lower connecting plate 43 is actually fixed on the support column 10, so the lower connecting plate 43 will not actually slide up and down. The film fixing mechanism 5 includes a film fixing connecting plate 51, a film fixing cover plate 52, an adjusting bolt 53, a U-shaped clamp 54 and a connecting piece 55. One end of the connecting piece 55 is fixedly connected to the lower outer side of the outer cantilever beam 41, and the other end is hinged to the U-shaped clamp 54. The other end of the U-shaped clamp 54 has a first through hole 541, and one end of the film fixing connecting plate 51 has a second through hole 511. The adjusting bolt 53 is installed and connected in the first through hole 541 and the second through hole 511 to adjust and tighten the film body. The other end of the film fixing connecting plate 51 forms a film fixing end face, and the film body is clamped between the film fixing end face and the film fixing cover plate 52. The film fixing connecting plate 51 and the film fixing cover plate 52 are both provided with film fixing holes 521, and the fixing screws pass through the film fixing through holes and the film body at the same time to complete the clamping of the film body.
[0032] Specifically, the film body includes a main film layer and edge ropes. The outer edge of the main film layer is wrapped and bonded with edge ropes. The edge ropes can help the main body film 20 to be stressed as a whole when being pulled, and the main body film 20 will not be torn due to the stress at individual points. The two sides of the film fixing connecting plate 51 are also provided with cable sleeves 512 for fixing the edge ropes. The cable sleeve 512 is a C-shaped cable sleeve with an opening.
[0033] The umbrella-opening principle of the present utility model:
[0034] When the umbrella frame 30 is in the closed state, the power device 2 (hydraulic cylinder / stepping motor) works, driving the upper power rod 1 to slide downward. At this time, the upper support rod 32 is driven to press downward, thereby driving the outer cantilever beam 41 to be lifted upward. Since the cantilever beam connecting plate 401 and the lower connecting plate 43 are fixed to the support column 10, that is, the cantilever beam connecting plate 401 and the lower connecting plate 43 will not slide up and down. The upward lifting of the outer cantilever beam 41 drives the lower support rod 42 at the lower end to be pulled upward (rotated upward). When the entire outer cantilever beam 41 becomes straight, at this time, after being limited, the power rod 1 stops working through the preset stroke inside the power device 2 or when the pressure sensor reaches the threshold. It should be noted that during the umbrella-opening process, the unfolding between the inner folding part 412 and the outer folding part 411 of the outer cantilever beam 41 is completed through the combined action of the lower support rod 42 and the upper support rod 32. Among them, the upper support rod 32 pulls the inner folding part 412 to rotate upward, thereby pulling the lower support rod 42 to open upward. Since the outer folding part 411 is the hinge point with the upper end of the lower support rod 42, when the upper end of the lower support rod 42 is pushed outward and upward, it will also drive the outer folding part 411 to open outward until it stops when it is completely flattened.
[0035] Principle of closing the umbrella of the present utility model:
[0036] When the umbrella frame 30 is in the open state, the power device 2 works in reverse, driving the power rod 1 at the upper end to rise, thereby pulling the upper end of the upper support rod 32 upward. Since the upper end of the upper support rod 32 moves upward, it drives the lower end thereof to move inward towards the axis of the inner support column 10, thereby lifting the outside of the inner folding part 412 of the outer cantilever beam 41 upward, thereby driving the lower support rod 42 at the lower end to close inward, and finally completing the folding of the entire umbrella frame 30. Here, it is also folded by two folding mechanisms, one is the upper folding umbrella frame 330 and the other is the lower folding umbrella frame 430. The two folding umbrella frames 30 work together to complete the opening and closing of the entire umbrella frame 30, and it is completely driven by the power device 2 without manual assistance. In principle, its height can be enlarged proportionally to exceed 20 meters.
[0037] The above-mentioned embodiments are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model, and the scope of protection of the present utility model cannot be limited thereby. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present utility model belong to the scope of protection required by the present utility model.
