[0002] An umbrella is a tool used to shield from rain, snow, or sun, typically made of materials such as oiled paper, oilcloth, or plastic sheeting. The main function of an umbrella is to provide shade or prevent rain, snow, or direct sunlight from hitting the body or objects. Depending on the usage scenario, umbrellas can be divided into various types, such as parasols, folding umbrellas, and long-handled umbrellas. Currently, there are many types and effects of umbrellas on the market, not only for rain protection but also for sun protection. In sunny weather, people use umbrellas outdoors to shield themselves from the sun and block ultraviolet rays.
[0003] However, existing umbrellas are not suitable for people to judge the strength of their UV protection with the naked eye, and it is inconvenient for people to judge the strength of their UV protection. As a result, existing umbrellas cannot meet more usage needs and are not practical enough. Therefore, in order to address the above problems, an umbrella with a tail that changes color when exposed to ultraviolet light is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Example 1
[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, an umbrella with a tail that changes color when exposed to ultraviolet light includes an umbrella rib 2, an umbrella cloth 1 fixedly installed on the outer surface of the umbrella rib 2, an umbrella rod inside the umbrella rib 2, an umbrella handle 3 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the umbrella rod, and the top end of the umbrella rod penetrating the top of the umbrella cloth 1.
[0027] A second UV detection ring 7 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the mounting ring inside the umbrella rib 2, which is located inside the umbrella fabric 1. A first UV detection ring 5 is installed on the top of the umbrella shaft of the umbrella rib 2 through the mounting assembly. A protective component is provided on the top of the mounting assembly. During operation, the first UV detection ring 5 is fixedly installed to the top of the umbrella shaft that penetrates the umbrella fabric 1 through the mounting assembly. The UV protection effect of the umbrella fabric 1 can be judged by comparing the detection of the second UV detection ring 7 inside and outside the umbrella fabric 1 with the first UV detection ring 5. When the first UV detection ring 5 at the umbrella tail outside the umbrella fabric 1 changes color, while the second UV detection ring 7 on the honeycomb structure umbrella rib 2 inside the umbrella fabric 1 does not change color, it indicates that the umbrella fabric 1 has a good UV protection effect. The user can also clearly know that the umbrella has a strong UV protection capability, thus enabling the umbrella to meet more usage needs and making it more practical. At the same time, the mounting assembly facilitates the removal, replacement, and installation of the first UV detection ring on the outside of the umbrella fabric 1, and the protective component can provide some protection against people or objects accidentally touched by the umbrella tail.
[0028] The installation assembly includes a threaded rod 9 fixedly connected to the top of the umbrella shaft of the umbrella rib 2. A connecting ring 10 is provided on the outer surface of the threaded rod 9. The connecting ring 10 is fixedly installed with the ultraviolet detection ring 5. A through threaded hole 12 is provided inside the connecting ring 10. The threaded hole 12 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 9. During operation, the threaded connection between the threaded hole 12 and the threaded rod 9 makes it easy to install and remove the ultraviolet detection ring 5 fixedly connected to the connecting ring 10. It can also be easily disassembled and replaced after a long period of use, avoiding poor detection effect after long-term use or inconvenience in replacement after damage.
[0029] The protective component includes a threaded rod 8 fixedly connected to the top of the threaded rod 9. A protective block 4 is provided on the outer surface of the threaded rod 8. A threaded hole 11 is provided at the bottom of the protective block 4. The threaded hole 11 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 8. During operation, the threaded connection between the threaded hole 11 and the threaded rod 8 allows the protective block 4 to be threadedly connected to the threaded rod 8, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the protective block 4. At the same time, the protective block 4 provides a certain degree of protection against people or objects that may accidentally come into contact with it. Furthermore, the installation and disassembly of the protective block 4 facilitates the removal and replacement of any damaged protective blocks.
[0030] The ultraviolet detection ring 5 is fixedly connected to an ultraviolet color-changing plate 6 at its bottom. The ultraviolet color-changing plate 6 is ring-shaped and is fitted over the outer surface of the umbrella shaft. During operation, the ultraviolet color-changing plate 6 detects ultraviolet rays to assist the detection of the ultraviolet detection ring 5. It can also serve as a basis for determining whether the umbrella is used to block ultraviolet rays, and avoid the problem of the detection effect of the single ultraviolet detection ring 5 deteriorating after long-term use. This allows the umbrella to meet more usage needs and is more practical. At the same time, the ultraviolet color-changing plate 6 can be removed and replaced along with the ultraviolet detection ring 5.
[0031] The ultraviolet detection ring 5, ultraviolet detection ring 7, and ultraviolet color-changing plate 6 are all equipped with an ultraviolet detection layer inside; during operation, the ultraviolet detection ring 5, ultraviolet detection ring 7, and ultraviolet color-changing plate 6 can easily detect ultraviolet light through the ultraviolet detection layer.
[0032] The top of the threaded rod 2 9, the top of the connecting ring 10, and the top of the ultraviolet detection ring 1 5 are all in contact with the bottom of the protective block 4; during operation, the protective block 4 can be disassembled and separated from the threaded rod 2 9, the connecting ring 10, and the ultraviolet detection ring 1 5.
[0033] The outer surface of the protective block 4 is set in a semi-circular shape, and the protective block 4 is made of sponge material. When in operation, the sponge material protective block 4 is relatively soft and can provide some protection when it accidentally touches others, thus avoiding damage to others.
[0034] Example 2
[0035] Please see Figure 5 As shown in the first embodiment, as another implementation of this utility model, a pad 13 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the umbrella handle 3. The pad 13 is made of sponge material. When working, the pad 13 installed on the outer surface of the umbrella handle 3 makes it more comfortable for people to hold, and the sponge material is soft and comfortable to hold.
