Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of restraint technology, and in particular to an easy-to-install umbrella strap. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional strap-supported umbrellas, due to their flexible materials, experience multi-directional displacement of the shoulders and hips with gait during movement, while the rigid handle needs to maintain a relatively stable spatial posture to achieve sun / rain protection. The differences in physical properties (flexible fabric straps vs. rigid handles) and degrees of freedom of movement cause the straps to pull the handle off unexpectedly during walking or turning, leading to high-frequency shaking of the canopy or even slippage, forcing users to repeatedly adjust. While mechanical locking mechanisms (such as bolts and spring clips) added to suppress this shaking improve stability, they also increase the number of components and manufacturing costs. This contradiction is particularly pronounced in scenarios requiring two-handed operation, such as outdoor photography and mountain hiking—users need to hold the umbrella stably to maintain a framing perspective, but are forced to distract themselves by securing the umbrella due to mismatched movement trajectories, effectively hindering the practical application of this technology.
[0003] Based on this, this patent proposes an innovative solution that integrates trajectory synchronization and adaptive fixation. By setting a semi-rigid support strip on the back of the lower fixing sleeve to force the umbrella strap to move in the same direction as the umbrella handle, and combining the adaptive locking of the trapezoidal cross-section lower fixing sleeve with the double Velcro locking of the upper fixing sleeve, a reliable fixation without adjustment is achieved with a minimalist structure, providing a low-cost solution for the industry. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the above issues and overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a simple umbrella strap, comprising two shoulder straps, a chest strap, and a waist belt. The two ends of the two shoulder straps are respectively connected to the waist belt, and the chest strap is positioned above the waist belt. The chest strap is fixed to the two shoulder straps by a first constraint member and a second constraint member. The feature is that: each of the two shoulder straps is provided with a vertically downward fixing sleeve, and one of the shoulder straps is also provided with an upper fixing sleeve; the shoulder straps are provided with a support strip, the length of which extends along the length of the shoulder strap.
[0005] More preferably, the support strip is made of semi-rigid plastic.
[0006] More preferably, the support strip is an arc-shaped protrusion structure that is thick in the middle and thin at the edges, and its cross-section has a parabolic profile.
[0007] More preferably, the support strip is disposed on the shoulder strap, and its surface is provided with transverse anti-slip texture.
[0008] More preferably, the upper fixing sleeve and the lower fixing sleeve are fixed to the shoulder strap, and the lower fixing sleeve has a trapezoidal cross-section, wherein the length of the upper side of the trapezoidal cross-section is greater than the length of the lower side.
[0009] More preferably, the two ends of the two shoulder straps are folded back and sewn together to form a closed through hole, the size of which matches the width of the waistband, and the waistband is slidably inserted through the closed through hole.
[0010] More preferably, the first constraint member is disposed at both ends of the chest strap; the second constraint member is disposed on the two shoulder straps at the positions where they connect to the chest strap.
[0011] More preferably, the chest strap and the waist belt are adjustablely connected via buckles.
[0012] In a further preferred embodiment, the position where the shoulder strap connects to the waist belt is further provided with the first constraint member, which is used to limit the range of motion of the shoulder strap on the waist belt.
[0013] This invention eliminates umbrella swaying and slippage caused by a semi-rigid support strip on the back of the lower fixing sleeve, which forces the umbrella strap to synchronize its movement trajectory with the swing trajectory of the umbrella handle when the user walks. Combined with the double Velcro locking of the upper fixing sleeve to the middle of the umbrella handle and the adaptive locking of the lower end of the umbrella handle by the trapezoidal cross section of the lower fixing sleeve, a three-level stability mechanism is formed, which can achieve reliable fixation without adjustment while freeing the user's hands. The design uses nylon webbing to fold and sew together to form a trapezoidal lower fixing sleeve, a minimalist structure of support strip and fixing sleeve, which significantly reduces material and process costs. The adjustable connection structure improves wearing comfort and adaptability. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Depend on Figures 1 to 6 The present invention relates to a simple umbrella strap, comprising two shoulder straps 1, a chest strap 2, and a waist belt 3. The two ends of the two shoulder straps 1 are respectively connected to the waist belt 3. The chest strap 2 is placed above the waist belt 3. The chest strap 2 is fixed to the two shoulder straps 1 by a first constraint member 7 and a second constraint member 8. The present invention is characterized in that: each of the two shoulder straps 1 is provided with a vertically downward fixing sleeve 5, and one of the shoulder straps 1 is also provided with an upper fixing sleeve 6; the shoulder straps 1 are provided with a support strip 4, the length direction of the support strip 4 extending along the length direction of the shoulder straps 1.
[0025] In these embodiments, the ends of the two shoulder straps 1 near the wearer's back are respectively connected to the two connection points at the back of the waist belt 3, and the ends near the wearer's chest are respectively connected to the two connection points at the front of the waist belt 3. The chest strap 2 is horizontally positioned above the waist belt 3, at the wearer's chest. The chest strap 2 is connected to the two shoulder straps 1 via a first constraint member 7 and a second constraint member 8. On the two shoulder straps 1, a lower fixing sleeve 5 is vertically sewn on below the waist belt 3 and above the umbrella strap. The lower fixing sleeve 5 is vertically fixed and can be slightly tilted relative to the vertical direction. The lower fixing sleeve 5 can be a nylon webbing folded and sewn onto the umbrella strap. In addition, on one of the shoulder straps 1 (e.g., the right shoulder strap 1, for right-handed operation), above the chest strap 2, an upper fixing sleeve 6 is also fixedly sewn on. The upper fixing sleeve 6 can be a nylon webbing, with its middle part sewn to the shoulder strap 1 and Velcro at both ends, which can be adjusted to fix the umbrella handle. The first constraint member 7 and the second constraint member 8 can be made of rubber in a U-shape.
[0026] To enhance the load-bearing capacity and wearing comfort of the shoulder strap 1 and prevent excessive bending or curling, in this embodiment, a layer 10 is sewn and fixed to each shoulder strap 1 below the chest strap 2 and above the waist belt 3. A support strip 4 is embedded within the layer 10, and the length direction of the support strip 4 is strictly parallel to the length direction of the shoulder strap 1. The support strip 4 effectively enhances the longitudinal bending stiffness of the shoulder strap 1, reducing the bending of the shoulder strap 1 at the abdominal position caused by the forward and backward movement of the hips during walking, allowing the shoulder strap 1 to better maintain its shape. The width of the support strip 4 is smaller than the width of the shoulder strap 1, and its edges are completely wrapped and fixed by the fixing layer.
[0027] In some embodiments, the support strip 4 is made of semi-rigid plastic, which is made of a material with a certain degree of rigidity and elasticity. The rigidity can be used to constrain the movement trajectory of the shoulder strap 1 so that it is consistent with the movement of the umbrella handle; good elasticity can improve wearing comfort.
[0028] In these embodiments, the support strip 4 can be a nylon plate, a polypropylene plate, a glass fiber reinforced plastic strip, or a thin metal sheet. In this embodiment, a glass fiber reinforced plastic strip is selected and injection molded.
[0029] In some embodiments, the support strip 4 is an arc-shaped protrusion structure that is thick in the middle and thin at the edges, with a parabolic profile in its cross-section. The support strip 4 is a strip-shaped member extending along the length of the shoulder strap 1, and its core feature is that its cross-section has a smooth parabolic profile.
[0030] In these embodiments, the support strip 4 has the greatest thickness at its central apex, preferably 2.5-4.0 mm; the thickness gradually decreases to 0.5-1.0 mm at the edges; and the overall width is 0.6-0.8 of the shoulder strap 1 width to ensure pressure distribution coverage. The thinned edge design allows for a smooth transition between the support strip 4 and the shoulder strap 1, eliminating the scratching sensation of hard edges on the skin.
[0031] In some embodiments, the support strip 4 is disposed on the shoulder strap 1, and its surface is provided with transverse anti-slip textures 9. The support strip 4 is embedded in the interlayer 10 along the length direction of the shoulder strap 1, and the spacing of the anti-slip textures 9 can be 5mm, with a 5mm smooth transition area left at both ends to avoid edge scratching.
[0032] In some embodiments, the upper fixing sleeve 6 and the lower fixing sleeve 5 are fixed to the shoulder strap 1. The lower fixing sleeve 5 has a trapezoidal cross-section, with the upper side of the trapezoidal cross-section being longer than the lower side. The upper fixing sleeve 6 passes under the shoulder strap 1, and the middle part of the upper fixing sleeve 6 is sewn and fixed around the overlapping area of the shoulder strap 1. One end of the upper fixing sleeve 6 is sewn and fixed with a Velcro assembly, leaving a 4-5cm gap between the Velcro assembly and the edge of the umbrella strap for wrapping the umbrella handle. The surface of the middle part of the upper fixing sleeve 6 overlapping with the umbrella strap is provided with a Velcro loop layer, and the other end of the upper fixing sleeve 6 is provided with a Velcro hook layer. Meanwhile, the lower fixing sleeve 5 is formed by folding a nylon webbing in half, with both ends aligned with the edge line of the umbrella strap, and the overlapping area is triangularly sewn and fixed, so that the sewn lower fixing sleeve 5 has a trapezoidal cross-section structure, wherein the size of the upper opening is larger than the size of the lower opening.
[0033] In these embodiments, the upper fixing sleeve 6 is equipped with two sets of Velcro components. The two sets of Velcro components work together to achieve double fixation of the umbrella handle, making the umbrella handle more secure. The upper fixing sleeve 6 and the lower fixing sleeve 5 work together to fix the umbrella handle to the umbrella strap. The lower fixing sleeve 5 has a trapezoidal cross-section, so that when the lower end of the umbrella handle is inserted, the diameter of the lower fixing sleeve 5 gradually decreases. When the diameter is smaller than the lower end of the umbrella handle, the umbrella handle can no longer move downwards, thus achieving self-adaptive locking. At this time, the middle part of the umbrella handle is fixed by the upper fixing sleeve 6, thereby achieving the function of fixing the umbrella handle. This method does not require additional clips on the lower fixing sleeve 5, reducing material and manufacturing costs. The function of restricting the umbrella handle can be achieved simply by changing the sewing method when sewing the lower fixing component.
[0034] In some embodiments, the two ends of the two shoulder straps 1 are folded back and sewn together to form a closed through hole 12. The size of the through hole 12 matches the size of the waist belt 3. The waist belt 3 is slidably inserted through the closed through hole 12. The manufacturing process mainly relies on sewing, which saves the cost of purchasing and installing special fasteners. The process is relatively simple and helps to reduce production costs.
[0035] In some embodiments, the first constraint member 7 is disposed at both ends of the chest strap 2; the second constraint member 8 is disposed on the two shoulder straps 1 at the positions where they connect to the chest strap 2. The chest strap 2 and the shoulder straps 1 allow for necessary relative sliding during user movement, providing great flexibility and adaptability, and avoiding the restrictive feeling caused by a fixed connection.
[0036] In some embodiments, both ends of the chest strap 2 and the waist belt 3 are provided with buckles 11. The ends of the chest strap 2 and the waist belt 3 are adjustablely connected to the ends of the buckles 11. The ends of the chest strap 2 and the waist belt 3 are respectively fixed by passing through the ends of the buckles 11. The tightness of the chest strap 2 and the waist belt 3 can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the protrusion.
[0037] In some embodiments, a constraint member 7 is provided at the connection point between the shoulder strap 1 and the waist belt 3 to limit the range of motion of the shoulder strap 1 on the waist belt 3, providing flexibility and adaptability for the user's activities, avoiding the feeling of restriction caused by a fixed connection, and allowing for adjustment and adaptation according to the different body shapes of different users.
[0038] The user puts the shoulder strap 1 on their shoulder and then fastens the buckles 11 of the chest strap 2 and waist belt 3 to secure the equipment. Next, the end of the umbrella handle is vertically inserted into the lower fixing sleeve 5, and the middle section of the handle is locked in place by the two sets of Velcro components on the upper fixing sleeve 6, thus positioning the umbrella. This design significantly optimizes operational efficiency in outdoor scenarios: when the user needs to take outdoor photos, they only need to put on the umbrella strap and secure the umbrella to maintain sun / rain protection while freeing their hands (for example, when operating a camera with one hand, the other hand does not need to hold the umbrella; or when both hands are needed to stabilize the device for video recording to prevent the umbrella from tipping over). It is especially suitable for scenarios such as hiking, sightseeing, etc., where frequent use of handheld devices is required, effectively improving ease of use and freedom of movement.
[0039] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0040] By setting a semi-rigid support bar 4 on the back of the lower fixing sleeve 5, the movement trajectory of the umbrella strap is forced to synchronize with the swing trajectory of the umbrella handle when the user walks, completely eliminating the problem of umbrella shaking and slippage caused by trajectory differences. Combined with the double Velcro locking of the upper fixing sleeve 6 to the middle of the umbrella handle and the adaptive locking of the lower end of the umbrella handle by the trapezoidal cross section of the lower fixing sleeve 5, a three-level stability mechanism is formed, which can achieve reliable fixation without adjustment while freeing the user's hands. The design uses nylon webbing to fold and sew together to form a trapezoidal lower fixing sleeve 5, support bar 4 and fixing sleeve minimalist structure design, which significantly reduces material and process costs, and the design of adjustable connection structure improves wearing comfort and adaptability.
[0041] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. The above descriptions are merely specific embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
