[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that the advantages and features of this utility model can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art. Obviously, the embodiments described in this application are only a part of the embodiments, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] Example 1: See Figure 1The folding umbrella shown includes a handle 1 and a canopy frame 2 connected to the handle 1. A connector 21 is provided at the end of the canopy frame 2 away from the handle 1. The folding umbrella also includes an umbrella fabric 3, which has a fixing member 31 that can be detachably connected to the connector 21. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, at least part of the umbrella fabric 3 covers the top of the canopy frame 2, and the fixing member 31 is inserted into the connector 21. When the umbrella fabric 3 is damaged, or when the user wants a different pattern or style of umbrella fabric 3, the fixing member 31 can be driven to detach from the connector 21, allowing the umbrella fabric 3 to be removed from the top of the canopy frame 2 and replaced. The operation is simple.

[0025] Specifically, the umbrella top frame 2 has a first end near the umbrella handle 1 and a second end away from the umbrella handle 1. The first end is rotatably connected to the umbrella handle 1, and the second end is provided with a connector 21. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the umbrella top frame 2 unfolds relative to the umbrella handle 1; when the folding umbrella is in the folded state, the umbrella top frame 2 closes relative to the umbrella handle 1. In this embodiment, the fixing member 31 and the connector 21 are both made of rigid materials, which can improve the stability of the connection between the umbrella fabric 3 and the umbrella top frame 2, and improve the durability of the folding umbrella.

[0026] In this embodiment, the connector 21 includes a insertion cavity 211. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the fixing member 31 is inserted into the insertion cavity 211 to achieve a fixed connection between the umbrella top frame 2 and the umbrella fabric 3. By driving the fixing member 31 out of the insertion cavity 211, the connection between the umbrella top frame 2 and the umbrella fabric 3 can be released. When the insertion cavity 211 is completely closed on all sides, and one or both ends of the insertion cavity 211 have an insertion opening, the insertion cavity 211 forms an insertion hole. When the insertion cavity 211 is not completely closed on all sides, for example, three sides are closed and one side is open, the insertion cavity 211 forms an insertion groove.

[0027] In this embodiment, the fastener 31 and the connector 21 are connected by an insertion method, and the fastener 31 is inserted into the end of the umbrella top frame 2. This has the following advantages: First, the umbrella top frame 2 is usually made of rigid material. Compared to setting the insertion cavity 211 on the umbrella fabric 3, it is easier to implement to set the fastener 31 on the umbrella fabric 3 and set the insertion cavity 211 at the end of the umbrella top frame 2, and the stability is better. Second, setting the connector 21 with the insertion cavity 211 on the umbrella top frame 2, and having the umbrella top frame 2 bear the stress generated during insertion, provides better durability than setting the insertion cavity 211 on the umbrella fabric 3. Third, by connecting the fastener 31 to the umbrella top frame 2, the force is transmitted to the umbrella fabric 3 through the fastener 31, avoiding direct stress on the umbrella fabric 3, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the umbrella fabric 3 and improving its durability.

[0028] In this embodiment, the insertion cavity 211 extends along the length of the umbrella top frame 2, and the connector 21 is provided with an insertion port 212 for the fixing member 31 to be inserted into the insertion cavity 211, with the insertion port 212 facing away from the umbrella handle 1. Thus, after the fixing member 31 is inserted into the insertion cavity 211, it is not easy for the fixing member 31 to detach from the insertion cavity 211 without external force, which improves the stability of the connection between the umbrella fabric 3 and the umbrella top frame 2. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the umbrella fabric 3 is in a taut state, and the outer edge of the umbrella fabric 3 tends to move inward and towards the umbrella handle 1. With the insertion port 212 facing away from the umbrella handle 1, it further prevents the fixing member 31 from detaching from the insertion cavity 211.

[0029] In this embodiment, see Figure 7 As shown, the connector 21 has an opening 213 communicating with the insertion cavity 211. The opening 213 extends along the length direction of the insertion cavity 211, and the insertion cavity 211 tightens at the opening 213. In a cross-section extending perpendicular to the length direction of the insertion cavity 211, the width of the opening 213 is smaller than the width of the insertion cavity 211. In this embodiment, see... Figure 3 As shown, the fixing member 31 includes a fixing part 311, a plugging part 312, and a first limiting part 313. The fixing part 311 is fixedly connected to the umbrella fabric 3, and the first limiting part 313 is connected between the fixing part 311 and the plugging part 312. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the plugging part 312 is inserted into the plugging cavity 211, and the first limiting part 313 is inserted into the opening 213. The first limiting part 313 can cooperate with the opening 213 to restrict the relative rotation of the fixing member 31 and the connecting member 21, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the umbrella fabric 3 and the umbrella top frame 2. In some embodiments, the fixing part 311 can be fixedly connected to the umbrella fabric 3 by glue, or the fixing member 31 can be fixedly connected to the umbrella fabric 3 by sewing, which is simple to operate.

[0030] In this embodiment, the insertion part 312 can be interference-fitted with the cavity wall of the insertion cavity 211 to achieve a more stable connection. In some embodiments, the connector 21 is provided with a first protrusion, and the fixing member 31 is provided with a second protrusion. During the insertion connection between the fixing member 31 and the connector 21, the second protrusion moves from one side of the first protrusion to the other side, producing a clicking sound. When the fixing member 31 completes the insertion connection with the connector 21, the second protrusion can cooperate with the first protrusion to prevent the fixing member 31 from separating from the connector 21, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the two. Specifically, the first protrusion is provided on the main body 214 and has multiple protrusions distributed on both sides of the opening 213, and the second protrusion is provided on the fixing part 311 and has multiple protrusions distributed on both sides of the first limiting part 313.

[0031] In this embodiment, the connector 21 is detachably connected to the end of the umbrella top frame 2 away from the umbrella handle 1. Specifically, the connector 21 includes a main body 214 and a connecting part 215 that are fixedly disposed thereon. The fixing member 31 can be detachably connected to the main body 214. The umbrella top frame 2 is provided with a mounting cavity 224, and the connecting part 215 is detachably inserted into the mounting cavity 224.

[0032] When connector 21 is damaged, it can be directly detached from the umbrella top frame 2 and replaced, without replacing the entire umbrella top frame 2, thus saving costs. Furthermore, connector 21 can be replaced to accommodate umbrella fabric 3 with different types of fasteners 31. Additionally, during production, the umbrella top frame 2 and connector 21 can be manufactured separately and then assembled, reducing production complexity.

[0033] In this embodiment, see Figure 4 As shown, the umbrella canopy frame 2 is rod-shaped, including a top wall 221 and side walls 222 disposed on both sides of the top wall 221, forming a U-shaped groove between the top wall 221 and the two side walls 222. The umbrella canopy frame 2 also includes a reinforcing member 223 connected between the two side walls 222. The reinforcing member 223 has the function of improving the structural strength of the umbrella canopy frame 2, and the aforementioned mounting cavity 224 is formed between the top wall 221, the reinforcing member 223 and the two side walls 222.

[0034] In this embodiment, the side of the reinforcing member 223 away from the top wall 221 forms a fixing groove 225 between it and the two side walls 222. The connector 21 also includes a positioning part 216 fixedly disposed with the main body 214, and the positioning part 216 is inserted into the fixing groove 225. The reinforcing member 223 divides the U-shaped groove between the top wall 221 and the two side walls 222 into an installation cavity 224 and a fixing groove 225. The connecting part 215 can cooperate with the installation cavity 224 to realize the detachable connection between the connector 21 and the umbrella top frame 2. The positioning part 216 cooperates with the fixing groove 225 to restrict the relative rotation of the connector 21 and the umbrella top frame 2 and to restrict their movement along the direction perpendicular to the length of the umbrella top frame 2, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the connector 21 and the top rod 22.

[0035] In this embodiment, the umbrella top frame 2 also includes reinforcing ribs 226 connecting the top wall 221 and the reinforcing member 223 to further improve the structural strength of the umbrella top frame 2. Simultaneously, the reinforcing ribs 226 divide the mounting cavity 224 into multiple chambers, and the connecting portion 215 includes multiple spaced-apart portions. These multiple connecting portions 215 are respectively inserted into the multiple chambers of the mounting cavity 224, further improving the stability of the connection between the connecting member 21 and the umbrella top frame 2.

[0036] In this embodiment, the folding umbrella includes a top cover 4, which is disposed on top of the umbrella handle 1. The top cover 4 is detachably connected to the umbrella handle 1. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the top cover 4 is pressed against the top of the umbrella fabric 3. When the umbrella fabric 3 is replaced, the top cover 4 needs to be removed from the umbrella handle 1 during the process of removing the umbrella fabric 3. During the installation of the new umbrella fabric 3, after the umbrella fabric 3 covers the top frame 2, the center of the umbrella fabric 3 is fixed by re-fixing the top cover 4 to the umbrella handle 1.

[0037] In this embodiment, the umbrella top frame 2 includes a plurality of frames spaced apart circumferentially along the umbrella handle 1, and the plurality of umbrella top frames 2 are rotatably connected to the umbrella handle 1. Specifically, see Figure 2 As shown, a mounting base 11 is fixedly installed on the upper part of the umbrella handle 1, and multiple umbrella top frames 2 are rotatably connected to the mounting base 11. In this embodiment, when the folding umbrella is in the folded state, see... Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the umbrella top frame 2 is folded together relative to the umbrella handle 1, which reduces the volume of the folding umbrella.

[0038] In this embodiment, the folding umbrella includes a slider 12, which is slidably mounted on the umbrella handle 1. The folding umbrella also includes a diagonal support rod 5, one end of which is rotatably connected to the umbrella top frame 2, and the other end of which is rotatably connected to the slider 12. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the umbrella top frame 2 is unfolded relative to the umbrella handle 1, and the diagonal support rod 5 is supported between the umbrella top frame 2 and the umbrella handle 1. When the folding umbrella is in the folded state, the diagonal support rod 5 is folded between the umbrella handle 1 and the umbrella top frame 2. When unfolding the folding umbrella, the user drives the slider 12 to slide along the umbrella handle 1, causing the slider 12 to move towards the mounting base 11. The slider 12 drives the umbrella top frame 2 to unfold relative to the umbrella handle 1 via the diagonal support rod 5. When the slider 12 moves to a preset position, the folding umbrella completes the transition to the unfolded state. When folding the folding umbrella, the user drives the slider 12 to slide in the opposite direction, moving it away from the mounting base 11.

[0039] In this embodiment, the folding umbrella is equipped with a crank 6, which is rotatably connected to the umbrella handle 1. A linkage component is provided between the crank 6 and the sliding member 12. By turning the crank 6, the user can drive the sliding member 12 to slide along the umbrella handle 1, thereby enabling the folding umbrella to switch between the unfolded and folded states. The crank 6 can also be used to change the unfolding angle of the umbrella top frame 2 relative to the umbrella handle 1, thereby adjusting the degree of unfolding and the area of ​​coverage of the folding umbrella.

[0040] Example 2: See Figures 8 to 14As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, the umbrella top frame 2 includes a top rod 22 and a side rod 23. The top rod 22 is connected to the umbrella handle 1. Specifically, the top rod 22 is rotatably connected to the umbrella handle 1, and the side rod 23 is rotatably connected to the top rod 22. The side rod 23 is provided with a connector 21. In some embodiments, the connector 21 is fixedly or detachably installed with the side rod 23. In this embodiment, the side rod 23 and the connector 21 are integrally installed, and the side rod 23 is provided with a insertion cavity 211.

[0041] In this embodiment, the umbrella fabric 3 includes an umbrella surface 32 and a skirt 33. The skirt 33 is connected to the outer edge of the umbrella surface 32, and the skirt 33 is provided with a fixing member 31. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the skirt 33 and the side rod 23 are fixedly connected to the fixing member 31 through the connector 21. The side rod 23 extends downward from the top rod 22, the umbrella surface 32 covers the top rod 22, and the skirt 33 extends downward from the edge of the umbrella surface 32. In this embodiment, when the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the skirt 33 forms a display surface, on which advertisements, slogans, patterns, etc., can be set to achieve a display effect, a promotional effect, or to make the folding umbrella more aesthetically pleasing. When the folding umbrella is in the folded state, the top rod 22 and the side rod 23 are respectively retracted relative to the umbrella handle 1.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the folding umbrella transitions to the folded state, the top rod 22 and the side rod 23 rotate relative to each other and unfold, increasing the angle between them and thus reducing the volume of the folded umbrella. Preferably, when the folding umbrella is in the folded state, the side rod 23 is nearly parallel to the umbrella handle 1, allowing the top rod 22 and the side rod 23 to be more compactly close to the umbrella handle 1.

[0043] In this embodiment, the insertion cavity 211 extends along the length of the side rod 23, and the side rod 23 is provided with an insertion port 212. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the insertion port 212 faces downward, which can effectively prevent the fixing member 31 from detaching from the insertion cavity 211, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the skirt 33 and the side rod 23. In this embodiment, the insertion cavity 211 and the fixing member 31 can adopt a structure similar to that in Embodiment 1 to achieve a stable connection.

[0044] In this embodiment, the umbrella top frame 2 also includes a support rod 24. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the support rod 24 is supported between the top rod 22 and the side rod 23. The support rod 24, the top rod 22, and the side rod 23 form a triangular structure, which allows the top rod 22 and the side rod 23 to maintain stability. In some embodiments, one of the top rod 22 and the side rod 23 is rotatably connected to the support rod 24, and the other is slidably connected to the support rod 24. Specifically, the other one can both rotate and slide to connect with the support rod 24. By making one end of the support rod 24 slidable, while achieving the functions of support and limiting, the support rod 24 can also slide to cooperate with the relative rotation of the top rod 22 and the side rod 23.

[0045] In this embodiment, the side rod 23 is provided with a sliding groove 231, one end of the support rod 24 is movably inserted into the sliding groove 231, and the other end of the support rod 24 is rotatably connected to the top rod 22. (See also...) Figure 10 As shown, when the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the support rod 24 abuts against the side rod 23. Specifically, in the unfolded state, the slide groove 231 extends in the vertical direction, and the support rod 24 abuts against the lower side wall of the slide groove 231. Specifically, the slide groove 231 extends along the length direction of the side rod 23, and the support rod 24 has a first end and a second end located at opposite ends in the length direction. The first end is rotatably connected to the top rod 22, and the second end is provided with a sliding pin 241. The sliding pin 241 extends perpendicular to the length direction of the side rod 23 and is movably inserted into the slide groove 231, allowing the support rod 24 to rotate relative to the side rod 23 around the sliding pin 241.

[0046] In this embodiment, the top rod 22 has a receiving groove that extends along the length of the top rod 22, and one end of the support rod 24 is inserted into the receiving groove. See [reference needed] Figures 12 to 14 As shown, when the folding umbrella is in the folded state, the support rod 24 moves closer to the top rod 22, and at least part of the support rod 24 is housed in the receiving groove, thereby reducing the volume of the folding umbrella. Specifically, the structure of the top rod 22 in this embodiment is the same as that of the top rod 22 in Embodiment 1, and the fixing groove 225 of the top rod 22 constitutes the aforementioned receiving groove.

[0047] In this embodiment, an elastic element is provided between the top rod 22 and the side rod 23. The elastic element provides the force required to drive the side rod 23 to unfold relative to the top rod 22. When the folding umbrella is switched from the unfolded state to the folded state, the side rod 23 automatically rotates relative to the top rod 22 and unfolds relative to the top rod 22 under the action of the elastic element. No user operation is required; the user only needs to drive the sliding element 12 to slide along the umbrella handle 1. Specifically, in this embodiment, see... Figure 11 As shown, the elastic element is a torsion spring 26 disposed between the top rod 22 and the side rod 23.

[0048] In this embodiment, the diagonal brace 5 is rotatably connected between the sliding member 12 and the top rod 22. As the sliding member 12 slides along the umbrella handle 1, it drives the top rod 22 to unfold or fold relative to the umbrella handle 1.

[0049] In this embodiment, the side pole 23 is equipped with hooks 25. Specifically, when the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the hooks 25 are located at the lower part of the side pole 23. Users can hang promotional or decorative items on the folding umbrella via the hooks 25, or hang drapes around the folding umbrella for isolation or aesthetic purposes. See also Figure 10 , Figure 11 As shown in this embodiment, in the unfolded state, the opening of the hook groove of the hook 25 faces inward, that is, towards the direction of the umbrella handle 1, to prevent the items hung on it from falling off under the action of external forces such as wind.

[0050] In this embodiment, see Figure 10 As shown, the hook groove of the hook 25 includes a first extension 251 and a second extension 252. The first extension 251 extends downward from the opening away from the umbrella handle 1 at an angle, and the second extension 252 extends downward from the lower end of the first extension 251. The extension directions of the first extension 251 and the second extension 252 form an angle to prevent items from falling off. In this embodiment, see... Figure 10 As shown, the hook groove of the hook 25 is provided with a tightening portion 253, where the hook groove narrows to prevent items from falling off. Specifically, in this embodiment, the tightening portion 253 is located at the junction of the first extension 251 and the second extension 252.

[0051] Example 3: See Figure 15 , Figure 16 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 2 is that in this embodiment, the umbrella top frame 2 does not have a support rod, the top rod 22 has a blocking part 227, and the side rod 23 has a second limiting part 232. The top rod 22 and the side rod 23 are rotatably connected around a pivot, and the blocking part 227 is located in the rotation path of the second limiting part 232 around the pivot. When the folding umbrella is in the unfolded state, the blocking part 227 and the second limiting part 232 abut against each other, thereby preventing relative movement between the side rod 23 and the top rod 22 and maintaining their stability.

[0052] Example 4: See Figure 17 , Figure 18 As shown, the main difference between this embodiment and embodiment 2 is that in this embodiment, the support rod 24 is rotatably connected between the top rod 22 and the side rod 23, and the support rod 24 is provided with a telescopic length.
