AI Technical Summary
The existing umbrella pole counterweights are prone to detaching from the umbrella frame, causing the center of gravity to shift and the umbrella to tip over. In addition, the counterweights are packaged separately from the umbrella frame, which is inconvenient for transportation.
Design a modular counterweight base, which adopts a hexagonal base and a detachable umbrella pole, connected by threaded holes. The counterweight slides with the hexagonal prism to achieve detachable installation, and is equipped with rounded corners to prevent scratches.
It achieves stable counterweight of the umbrella pole under different directions and weight requirements, preventing tipping, and the counterweight is a standard part, which is convenient for storage and transportation.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of counterweight technology, and in particular to a modular counterweight base. Background Technology
[0002] Current technology for banana umbrellas or Roman umbrellas uses a combination of single or multiple block-shaped components. A cross-shaped or T-shaped umbrella frame structure is attached to the bottom of the umbrella pole. Movable counterweights are placed on both sides or all four sides of the umbrella frame. The counterweights can be filled with materials such as high-density sand or soil to increase the weight of the base and stabilize the entire umbrella pole, thus supporting the umbrella.
[0003] While the existing technologies described above have improved upon the shortcomings of using solid stones or cement as counterweights in terms of transportation, storage, and handling, they still have drawbacks in actual use. These include the safety hazard of the umbrella pole shifting its center of gravity and tipping over when the counterweight moves and detaches from the umbrella frame. Additionally, the product becomes too heavy and inconvenient to move when filled with sand or soil. Furthermore, the counterweight and cross-shaped umbrella frame are separate components, posing significant inconveniences for storage and transportation as they require separate packaging and transport. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, the present invention provides a modular counterweight base.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a modular counterweight base, including a base, on which an umbrella pole can be detachably installed. The base is hexagonal in shape, and a set of mounting plates is fixedly installed on each of the six sides of the base. Several sets of counterweights can be detachably installed on the mounting plates.
[0006] Furthermore, the upper end of the base is provided with a threaded hole, and the umbrella rod is installed in the threaded hole through threaded engagement.
[0007] Furthermore, a hexagonal prism is fixedly installed on the top of the mounting base plate, and a hexagonal groove is provided on the counterweight block, which is slidably fitted with the hexagonal prism.
[0008] Furthermore, the inner side of the counterweight is slidably mounted on the side wall of the base.
[0009] Furthermore, the outer side of the counterweight is provided with an arc-shaped corner to prevent scratching the human body.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: the umbrella pole can be detachably installed by the threaded hole and the threaded part at the bottom of the umbrella pole. When in use, different numbers of counterweight blocks can be inserted into the hexagonal prisms at different positions according to the direction and weight of the counterweight required to counterweight the base and prevent the base from losing its center of gravity and tipping over. Moreover, the counterweight blocks are all standard parts of the same specification, which is convenient for production and storage. Attached Figure Description
[0011] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0017] To more clearly illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, the following description is made in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the drawings described below are only one embodiment of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other embodiments can be obtained based on these drawings and embodiments without creative effort, and all of them fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0018] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model includes a base 1, on which an umbrella pole 2 is detachably mounted. A threaded hole 11 is provided at the upper end of the base 1, and the umbrella pole 2 is installed in the threaded hole 11 through threaded engagement.
[0019] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the base 1 is hexagonal in shape, and a set of mounting base plates 3 are fixedly installed on each of the six sides of the base 1. A hexagonal prism 4 is fixedly installed on the top of the mounting base plate 3. The counterweight 5 is provided with a hexagonal groove 51, which is slidably installed with the hexagonal prism 4. The inner side of the counterweight 5 is slidably installed on the side wall of the base 1, and the outer side of the counterweight 5 is provided with an arc-shaped corner 52 to prevent scratching the human body.
[0020] In use, the umbrella pole 2 can be detachably installed by engaging the threaded part at the bottom of the umbrella pole 2 through the threaded hole 11. In use, different numbers of counterweight blocks 5 can be inserted into the hexagonal prism 4 at different positions according to the required counterweight direction and weight to counterweight the base 1 and prevent the base 1 from losing its center of gravity and tipping over. Moreover, the counterweight blocks 5 are all standard parts of the same specification, which are convenient to produce and store.
[0021] The above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. The scope of protection of the present utility model is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to the present utility model within its substance and scope of protection, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions should also be considered to fall within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
