[0026] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed, but as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
[0028] This embodiment relates to an umbrella rib, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes: an inner section rib 100, a middle section rib 200, an outer section rib 300, a supporting rib 400, a first pull-back rod 500, and a second pull-back rod 600.
[0029] The inner ribs 100, middle ribs 200, and outer ribs 300 are arranged sequentially from the inside to the outside to support the umbrella. Specifically, the outer ends of the inner ribs 100 are pivotally connected to the inner ends of the middle ribs 200, which are pivotally connected to the upper nest of the umbrella. The outer ends of the middle ribs 200 are pivotally connected to the inner ends of the outer ribs 300. The inner ends of the support ribs 400 are pivotally connected to the lower nest of the umbrella, and the outer ends of the support ribs 400 are pivotally connected to the middle section of the inner ribs 100 to support the inner ribs 100.
[0030] The first pull rod 500 is arranged between the support ribs 400 and the middle ribs 200. When opening the umbrella, the support ribs 400 will pull the middle ribs 200 through the first pull rod 500, so that the middle ribs 200 are unfolded outwardly; when closing the umbrella, the support ribs 400 will push the middle ribs 200 through the first pull rod 500, so that the middle ribs 200 are folded inwardly, realizing the automatic closing of the middle ribs 200. The second pull rod 600 is arranged between the inner ribs 100 and the outer ribs 300; when opening the umbrella, the inner ribs 100 will push the outer ribs 300 through the second pull rod 600, so that the outer ribs 300 are unfolded outwardly; when closing the umbrella, the inner ribs 100 will pull the outer ribs 300 through the second pull rod 600, so that the outer ribs 300 are folded inwardly, realizing the automatic closing of the outer ribs 300, so as to realize a good storage effect.
[0031] The middle part of the second pull rod 600 is provided with a buckle 610, which is U-shaped and sleeved on the middle ribs 200, realizing the connection between the second pull rod 600 and the middle ribs 200, so that when the outer ribs 300 are pulled back by the second pull rod 600 during closing the umbrella, the second pull rod 600 will also pull the middle ribs 200 to further close to the inner ribs 100 through the buckle 610, thereby reducing the distance between the inner ribs 100 and the middle ribs 200, reducing the storage volume of the ribs, and realizing a good storage effect. As a preferred scheme, the second pull rod 600 is bent from both ends to the middle part to the side close to the middle ribs 200, so that the second pull rod 600 will generate an anti-bending force opposite to the bending direction, and the anti-bending force of the second pull rod 600 can pull the middle ribs 200 to close to the inner ribs 100 during closing the umbrella, automatically realizing the folding storage of the middle ribs 200 and the inner ribs 100, and reducing the storage volume.
[0032] As a preferred scheme, a scratch-proof structure is arranged between the middle ribs 200 and the buckle 610, so as to avoid scratching the middle ribs 200 by the buckle 610 during pulling the middle ribs 200, and ensure the appearance and structure stability of the middle ribs 200. In this embodiment, the scratch-proof structure is arranged as a protective sleeve 700 fixed on the middle ribs 200; the length of the protective sleeve 700 corresponds to the sliding range of the buckle 610 on the middle ribs 200, so as to ensure that the sliding range of the buckle 610 on the middle ribs 200 can be covered by the protective sleeve 700, so as to comprehensively and effectively protect the middle ribs 200 and avoid scratching the middle ribs 200 by the buckle 610. Of course, in other embodiments, the scratch-proof structure can also be arranged as other structures, such as arranging a scratch-proof coating on the middle ribs 200, so as to achieve the effect of protecting the middle ribs 200.
[0033] In the embodiment, the hollow groove 710 is arranged on the protective sleeve 700 in the length direction, which can reduce the weight of the protective sleeve 700, thereby reducing the overall mass of the umbrella rib, and meanwhile, the protective effect on the middle-section umbrella rib 200 is not affected, the direct contact between the buckle ring 610 and the middle-section umbrella rib 200 can be well isolated, and the use experience of the umbrella rib is ensured. As a preferred scheme, the hollow groove 710 is arranged in multiple and uniformly arranged on the circumferential side of the protective sleeve 700, thereby further reducing the weight of the protective sleeve 700 and meanwhile improving the aesthetic degree of the protective sleeve 700.
[0034] In the embodiment, the protective sleeve 700 is made of TPU material, which can achieve a good protective effect on the middle-section umbrella rib 200, and meanwhile, the sliding smoothness of the buckle ring 610 on the protective sleeve 700 is ensured, so as to achieve a good back-pulling and closing effect of the umbrella. Of course, in other embodiments, the protective sleeve 700 can also be made of other materials to achieve a good protection on the middle-section umbrella rib 200.
[0035] As a preferred scheme, the support umbrella rib 400 comprises a first rod member 410 and a second rod member 420, the first rod member 410 and the second rod member 420 are arranged in parallel in the up-down direction, and the structure of the two rod members enhances the strength of the support umbrella rib 400 and improves the overall stability of the umbrella rib structure. In the embodiment, one end of the first back-pulling rod 500 is hinged to the support umbrella rib 400 and located between the first rod member 410 and the second rod member 420, and the other end is hinged to the middle-section umbrella rib 200. The connection of the first back-pulling rod 500 does not damage the rod members of the support umbrella rib 400, thereby ensuring the strength of the support umbrella rib 400 and also avoiding the first back-pulling rod 500 from being pulled out from the two sides of the first rod member 410 and the second rod member 420, the hinge stability between the first back-pulling rod 500 and the support umbrella rib 400 ensures the overall strength of the umbrella rib structure.
[0036] As a preferred scheme, the inner-section umbrella rib 100, the middle-section umbrella rib 200 and the outer-section umbrella rib 300 are made of glass fiber material or carbon fiber material, which ensures the strength of the umbrella rib structure and reduces the weight of the umbrella rib structure, thereby improving the use experience of the umbrella.
[0037] The above is only used to illustrate the technical scheme of the utility model and not limit the utility model, other modifications or equivalent replacements to the technical scheme of the utility model made by the ordinary skilled in the art should be covered in the claim range of the utility model.
