[0020] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model, and obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the ordinary skilled person in the art without the creative labor belong to the protection scope of the utility model.

[0021] The utility model discloses a outdoor umbrella with electrically conductive slip ring assembly to solve the problems of the prior art and prolong the service life of the conductor.

[0022] In order to make the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the utility model more obvious and easy to understand, the utility model will be further explained in detail below with the combination of drawings and specific embodiments.

[0023] Referring to Figs. 1-3 The utility model provides an outdoor umbrella with electrically conductive slip ring assembly 100, including hinged component and electrically conductive slip ring assembly 3. Hinged component includes first support rod and second support rod, and first support rod is hinged with second support rod at hinged position. Electrically conductive slip ring assembly 3 includes electrically conductive slip ring 7, first conductor 8 and second conductor 9. Electrically conductive slip ring 7 includes shell, fixed brush and electrically conductive ring. Fixed brush is fixedly connected with shell, and electrically conductive ring is rotatably connected with shell, and fixed brush and electrically conductive ring are in sliding contact.

[0024] Wherein, the shell is fixedly connected with the first support rod, and the electrically conductive ring is fixedly connected with the second support rod. The rotation center of the hinged position is the axis of the electrically conductive ring. The first conductor 8 is installed on the first support rod, and the first conductor 8 is electrically connected with the fixed brush. The second conductor 9 is installed on the second support rod, and the second conductor 9 is electrically connected with the electrically conductive ring.

[0025] The working principle of the outdoor umbrella with electrically conductive slip ring assembly 100 of the embodiment is as follows:

[0026] In the process of opening and folding, the first support rod and the second support rod rotate relative to each other, and the rotation axis is the axis of the electrically conductive ring. Therefore, with the relative rotation of the first support rod and the second support rod, the fixed brush and the electrically conductive ring are in sliding contact, and the electrical connection between the first conductor 8 and the second conductor 9 is always maintained.

[0027] Compared with the prior art of integrally connecting the first conductor 8 and the second conductor 9, the embodiment sets the electrically conductive slip ring 7, which can avoid the conductor near the hinged position from being frequently bent and pulled while maintaining the electrical connection between the first conductor 8 and the second conductor 9, thereby prolonging the service life of the electrically conductive slip ring assembly 3.

[0028] The electrically conductive slip ring assembly 3 can supply power to various electric appliances to meet the outdoor use requirements.

[0029] The outdoor umbrella usually has a short rib 5, a long rib 6 and a diagonal rod 4. As a possible example, in the embodiment, the hinge assembly is divided into a first hinge assembly 1 and a second hinge assembly 2. The first hinge assembly 1 is hinged by the diagonal rod 4 and the short rib 5, wherein the diagonal rod 4 corresponds to the first support rod, and the short rib 5 corresponds to the second support rod. The second hinge assembly 2 is hinged by the long rib 6 and the short rib 5, wherein the long rib 6 corresponds to the first support rod, and the short rib 5 corresponds to the second support rod. The number of the first hinge assembly 1 is one, and the number of the second hinge assembly 2 is multiple.

[0030] As a possible example, in the embodiment, the second support rod includes a light bar assembly, a light bar fixing component and a support rod body. The light bar assembly is electrically connected with the second wire. The light bar fixing component detachably fixes the light bar assembly on the support rod body. The light bar assembly is used to provide lighting below to meet the lighting needs of users when they are outdoors.

[0031] As a possible example, in the embodiment, the support rod body has a receiving groove, which is arranged along the length direction of the support rod body, and the light bar assembly is installed in the receiving groove. By adopting the embedded installation mode of the light bar assembly, the folding process of the outdoor umbrella 100 with the conductive slip ring assembly is avoided.

[0032] As a possible example, in the embodiment, the outdoor umbrella 100 with the conductive slip ring assembly further includes a fan, which is installed on the lower umbrella disc of the outdoor umbrella 100 with the conductive slip ring assembly. The fan can play a role in cooling and insect repelling, thereby improving the user experience.

[0033] As a possible example, in the embodiment, the outdoor umbrella 100 with the conductive slip ring assembly further includes a photovoltaic power generation component, which is installed on the upper surface of the umbrella cloth of the outdoor umbrella 100 with the conductive slip ring assembly. By adopting the photovoltaic power generation mode, the effect of saving electricity is achieved, and the electricity anxiety is relieved.
