Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of umbrellas, and in particular to an umbrella cover closing piece and an umbrella. Background Art

[0002] On rainy days, after people use umbrellas, there will be rain on the umbrella surface. After the umbrella is folded, the rain will flow down along the umbrella surface. In order to prevent the rain from wetting the ground and to facilitate users to carry the umbrella after use, more and more umbrellas are provided with retractable umbrella covers. When needed, the umbrella cover is unfolded and put into the umbrella body, so that the umbrella with rain can be stored in the umbrella cover.

[0003] For example, Chinese patent CN209498860U discloses an umbrella with an umbrella cover, which includes an umbrella body with an umbrella cover, umbrella ribs and an umbrella handle. The umbrella cover has an extended state and a retracted state, and includes a ring, a base and a telescopic cover with two ends respectively connected to the ring and the base. The top of the umbrella body is fixedly connected to the base. In the retracted state of the umbrella cover, the ring and the base are fixed by an elastic cable tie. The cable tie spans the center of the ring and is connected to both sides of the ring at both ends, and the umbrella body is exposed from the ring. In the extended state of the umbrella cover, most of the umbrella body except the umbrella handle is placed in the umbrella cover, and the umbrella handle presses against the cable tie, causing the cable tie to tighten and open the telescopic cover.

[0004] Most umbrella covers on the market, like the aforementioned solutions, can be used to store an umbrella after use. However, because the cover's opening isn't tightened, there's a gap between the cover's opening and the umbrella's body. If the umbrella is tilted or placed horizontally after storage, rainwater can easily overflow, soaking surrounding items. Furthermore, due to the limited storage angle, many women's bags are small, making it difficult to carry a stored umbrella inside, which can be inconvenient for the user. Utility Model Content

[0032] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the utility model for which protection is sought, but merely represents the selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] Example

[0034] Combine Figures 1 to 6 This embodiment provides an umbrella cover closing piece, including a belt body 1 and a connecting head 2 installed or formed on the belt body 1. The belt body 1 is connected end to end through the connecting head 2 to enclose the open end of the umbrella cover, wherein the tail of the belt body is provided with multiple adjustment parts 11 along its length direction, and the connecting head 2 is provided with a locking part 21 and a channel 22. The locking part 21 is configured to drive the tail of the belt body to move along the channel 22 in an operative manner to select one of the adjustment parts 11 to lock, and can be unlocked from the adjustment part 11 by pressing the connecting head 2, thereby adjusting the enclosing size of the belt body 1.

[0035] For example, after folding a used umbrella, the user puts the umbrella cover along the open end of the umbrella cover, squeezes the belt body 1 by hand so that the tail of the belt body can move along the channel 22, and when the pressure is stopped, the locking part 21 is locked with the current adjustment part 11, thereby fastening the umbrella cover and the folded umbrella body; or, when the umbrella needs to be used, the user presses the connecting head 2 to unlock the locking part 21 and the adjustment part 11, thereby loosening the umbrella cover and the umbrella body, so that the umbrella body can be taken out for use.

[0036] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the closing member allows for adjustable tightness of the cover's opening. When the cover is in use, the cover's opening is tied to the umbrella body, preventing rainwater from leaking out and soaking other items. Furthermore, tying the cover to the umbrella body makes it easier to store the umbrella after use. Tilt-and-place the umbrella, either horizontally or horizontally, prevents rainwater from spilling out, making it easier to store in a bag, especially for smaller women's bags. Furthermore, the closing member can prop open the cover's opening, making it easier to insert the umbrella.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, an elastic steel sheet 12 is embedded or bonded along the outer wall of the belt body 1 to force the tail of the belt body back into position when the connector 2 is pressed. For example, the belt body 1 may be a plastic component with a recessed mounting groove formed in its outer wall. The elastic steel sheet 12 is bonded or embedded in this mounting groove via injection molding. Because the elastic steel sheet 12 exerts an outward elastic force when the belt body 1 encloses the umbrella cover, when the locking portion 21 and the adjustment portion 11 are unlocked, this elastic force allows the tail of the belt body to quickly move along the channel 22 to its initial position, thereby returning the belt body 1 to its original position. As will be readily understood, in this embodiment, pressing the connector 2 releases the locking portion 21 and the adjustment portion 11, simultaneously causing the tail of the belt body to return to its original position, releasing the closing member and facilitating the upward folding of the umbrella cover along the umbrella body, a convenient and quick method. The provision of the elastic steel sheet 12 also enhances the overall strength of the belt body 1 and ensures the service life of the closing member.

[0038] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, a channel is sewn near the open end of the umbrella cover for the belt 1 to pass through. The belt 1 is inserted into the channel, leaving the connector 2 exposed on the cover. In this embodiment, the belt 1 is installed through the channel on the cover, shielding the belt 1 from view, leaving only the connector 2 exposed on the cover, maintaining a neat and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Preferably, a push-button label is printed or affixed to the user-facing side of the connector 2 for easier operation. During installation, the tail of the belt is threaded from one end of the channel to the other and connected to the connector 2.

[0039] Furthermore, a connector 2 is located at the head of the belt, and a channel 22 is provided inside the belt body 1. This allows the tail of the belt to pass through the channel 22 and then be positioned inside the head of the belt. This prevents the tail of the belt from being dislocated on the user's side during adjustment, further improving the aesthetics of the umbrella cover. Furthermore, the inside of the belt head serves as a guide during the movement of the tail of the belt, preventing it from being inserted through the channel of the umbrella cover, ensuring smooth movement of the tail of the belt. It is easy to understand that adjusting the closing size of the belt body 1 is equivalent to adjusting the tightness of the umbrella cover's open end. During use, the user places two fingers on the belt body 1 on the side of the connector 2 and presses or pinches inward to adjust the length of the tail of the belt to pass through the channel 22, thereby adjusting the closing size of the belt body 1 accordingly and tightening the umbrella cover's open end. The presence of multiple adjustment sections 11 allows for adaptability to different umbrellas and ensures that the umbrella can be tightened even when the user stores the umbrella to different sizes.

[0040] In another embodiment, a stopper 3 is installed or formed at the tail of the belt body, and the width of the stopper 3 is greater than the width of the channel 22. Preferably, the stopper 3 is provided with a guide surface 31 along the direction of entry into the channel 22, and a relief groove 32 is hollowed out in the stopper 3 to facilitate the insertion of the stopper 3 into the channel 22 and its exposure at the other end of the channel 22. The guide surface 31 is configured as an inclined surface inclined along the direction of entry into the channel 22. During installation, the stopper 3 is inserted into the channel 22. Under the action of the guide surface 31 and the relief groove 32, the stopper 3 is elastically deformed. After being exposed at the other end of the channel 22, it is limited by the width of the channel 22 and connected to the connector 2 to prevent the end of the belt body 1 from separating. In other embodiments, the tail of the belt body can also be configured to have the same width as the rest of the belt body, and a rounded corner is provided at the tail of the belt body to facilitate the tail of the belt body passing through the channel 22. It should be mentioned that the length of the tail of the belt body extending into the channel 22 is sufficient to ensure that when the user presses the connector 2, the tail of the belt body can abut against the inner wall of the head of the belt body, thereby preventing the tail of the belt body from falling out.

[0041] Based on the above embodiment, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, a locking portion 21 is provided on the inner wall of the channel 22 facing away from the user. The locking portion 21 is configured as a buckle, and each adjusting portion 11 is configured as a slot. The buckle has a first locking surface 211, and the slot has a second locking surface 111. The first locking surface 211 and the second locking surface 111 abut against each other to lock the locking portion 21 and the adjusting portion 11. Preferably, a rebound space is formed within the channel 22. The rebound space is defined as the height from the buckle to the inner wall on the other side of the channel 22, and this height is at least twice the thickness of the strap 1. Pressing the connector 2 drives the buckle inward, disengaging the first locking surface 211 from the second locking surface 111. As the second locking surface 111 disengages from the first locking surface 211, the tail of the strap returns to its original position under the action of the rebound space and the elastic steel sheet 12. Specifically, the second retaining surface 111 of the slot is vertically arranged and includes an inclined surface 112 connected to the second retaining surface 111. The inclined surface 112 is configured to tilt inwardly toward the belt body 1 along the direction of entry into the channel 22. This allows the buckle to slide out along the inclined surfaces 112 as the tail of the belt body moves along the direction of entry into the channel 22, thereby flexibly engaging with the respective retaining slots, ensuring smooth entry of the tail of the belt body and reducing operational effort. It is important to note that when the buckle engages with the slot, the entire belt body 1 experiences an outward expansion force, at which point the buckle and slot engage and limit the position. When the buckle is forced inward, the slot and buckle disengage, now located within the rebound space. The elastic force generated by the elastic steel sheet 12 resets the tail of the belt body. At this point, the end of the belt body 1 remains connected due to the action of the limit head 3. In this embodiment, the locking portion 21 and the adjusting portion 11 have a simple and compact structure, which can reduce costs and reduce the volume of the closing piece, making it easier for the closing piece to fit different umbrella covers and more convenient for users to carry.

[0042] The present invention further provides an umbrella, comprising an umbrella body, an umbrella cover, and a closing piece mounted on the umbrella cover, wherein the closing piece is the umbrella cover closing piece as described in any of the above embodiments. The umbrella cover can be set separately from the umbrella body, or can be connected to the umbrella body through a storage device. Exemplarily, the storage device is mounted on the umbrella body and fixed to one end of the umbrella cover. By driving the rotor on the storage device to rotate, the umbrella cover moves axially along the umbrella body and is rolled up in the storage device. During the process of reeling in the umbrella cover, the closing piece is located on the outside of the storage device, which is convenient for the user to pull down when using it. At the same time, the closing piece can generate a certain amount of resistance during the process of spirally reeling in the umbrella cover, ensuring that one end of the umbrella cover is spirally reeled in and the other end remains flat. It should be mentioned that the umbrella body comprises an umbrella cloth, umbrella ribs, and an umbrella handle. The connection structure and principle of the umbrella cloth, umbrella handle, and umbrella ribs are prior art and will not be elaborated here.

[0043] The above are only preferred implementations of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
