[0002] Straight-handled umbrellas, such as sun umbrellas and rain umbrellas, bring convenience to people's lives, but these types of straight-handled umbrellas cannot be directly fixed to other supporting parts, which causes some inconvenience to users.

[0003] Currently, different types of umbrella holder structures are designed based on different support components. However, existing umbrella holder structures are all integral structures and lack modular or interchangeable handle systems, making it impossible to achieve quick installation, disassembly, and replacement. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned defects in the prior art, this utility model proposes an umbrella fixator, the purpose of which is to provide a modular and interchangeable handle system that can be conveniently used to fix a straight-handled umbrella to other support components, so as to achieve quick installation, disassembly and replacement.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned technical objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0013] The advantages of this utility model due to the adoption of the above technical solution are as follows:

[0014] 1. The handle of the straight-handled umbrella can be connected via a clamp and clamped to various components via a connecting clip, thus enabling convenient use of the straight-handled umbrella; in addition, the use of a ball joint on the connecting clip allows for adjustment of the position and angle of the straight-handled umbrella.

[0015] 2. Both the clamping parts and the connecting clips are modular, allowing for replacement and quick disassembly. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of one embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described in detail below through embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0018] See Figure 1 This is one embodiment of the umbrella fixator of this utility model. Figure 1As shown, the umbrella fixer in this embodiment includes a clamping member 1 and a connecting clip 2. The clamping member 1 is used to clamp the handle of the straight-handled umbrella. The clamping member 1 is connected to the connecting clip 2, which is connected to adjacent components, such as pipes, supports, or other structures, thereby achieving the purpose of fixing the straight-handled umbrella for use.

[0019] Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional view of this embodiment. In the cross-sectional view, the internal parts (first spring 181, positioning lock 182, and fixing steel pin 183) are visible.

[0020] The clamping member 1 includes a first clamping part 11, a second clamping part 12, and a connecting member 13. The first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 12 are connected together by the connecting member 13. An insertion port 14 is provided on the upper end face of the first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 12. The upper section between the first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 12 forms an upward-opening clamping space to clamp the handle A of the straight umbrella. The lower end face of the first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 12 forms a downward-opening spherical positioning groove 15.

[0021] like Figure 1 As shown, the inner surface of the first clamping part 11 extends downward along both sides of the insertion port 14 to form a first arc-shaped protective wall 111, and a supporting boss 112 is formed at the bottom of the first arc-shaped protective wall 111; the inner surface of the corresponding second clamping part 12 also extends downward along both sides of the insertion port 14 to form a second arc-shaped protective wall (not shown in the figure). The first arc-shaped protective wall 111 and the second arc-shaped protective wall form a limiting wall surrounding the umbrella handle, ensuring that the umbrella handle A moves within the limiting wall without tilting or falling over. A positioning strip 17 is provided on the side wall of the first clamping part 11, and a relief groove for accommodating the positioning strip 17 is provided on the second clamping part 12 at the corresponding position. Quick positioning can be achieved through the cooperation of the relief groove and the positioning strip 17. A locking hole 161 is provided on the first clamping part 11 and below the supporting boss 112, and a corresponding locking hole 162 is also provided on the second clamping part. The connecting piece 13 passes through the two locking holes 161 and 162 to lock the first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 12.

[0022] Furthermore, to prevent the umbrella handle from rotating within the clamping member, a locking structure is provided within the support boss 112. In this embodiment, the locking structure includes a first return spring 181, a positioning lock 182, and a steel pin 183. Figure 1As shown, the first return spring 181 is disposed on the support boss 112 and is confined between the first arc-shaped protective wall 111 and the second arc-shaped protective wall. A positioning lock 182 is disposed above the first return spring 181. The positioning lock 182 has a guide groove 1831, which has a locking position and an unlocking position. The top of the positioning lock 182 engages with the limiting hole at the bottom of the umbrella handle. A steel pin 183 is fixed to the inner wall of the first clamping part 11 and located within the clamping space. The steel pin 183 passes through the guide groove of the positioning lock 182 to confine the positioning lock. When the positioning lock 182 is subjected to downward pressure, rotating the positioning lock 182 changes the position of the steel pin 183 within the positioning lock 182, thereby achieving locking and unlocking of the umbrella handle. The fixed steel pin 183 achieves mechanical locking of the positioning lock 182, preventing rotation. The first return spring 181 pushes against the positioning lock 182, causing the top of the positioning lock 182 to engage with the limiting hole at the bottom of the umbrella handle. Therefore, the umbrella handle is locked by the cooperation of the steel pin, the positioning lock, the return spring, and the limiting hole at the bottom of the umbrella handle A. In addition, the fixed steel pin also acts as a mechanical stop to ensure that the first return spring 181 and its internal components do not come out of the clamping space during compression or operation.

[0023] When the umbrella handle is pressed down, the first return spring is compressed, causing the positioning lock 182 to move downward along the guide groove and disengage from the umbrella handle limiting hole, thereby enabling the rotation and disassembly of the umbrella handle A. This structure ensures that the rotation of the inserted handle is internally restricted by the mechanical engagement between the fixing pin, the positioning lock, and the steel pin, rather than by external clamping components.

[0024] In addition, a second return spring 131 is fitted onto the connector 13. The connector 13 is used to control the clamping force between the first clamping part 11 and the second clamping part 12 and the ball joint 24. When the bolt is tightened, the second return spring 131 applies pressure between the first clamping part 11, the second clamping part 12 and the ball joint 24, allowing the user to adjust or lock the umbrella at the desired tilt angle.

[0025] The connecting clamp 2 includes a fixed clamp body 21, a movable clamp body 22, a pivot pin 23, and a ball joint 24. One end of the fixed clamp body 21 is provided with a connecting pin 211 and a connecting piece 212, which connect to the movable clamp body 22. The fixed clamp body 21 and the connecting piece 212 are respectively provided with threaded locking holes 213. The pivot pin 23 is screwed into the threaded locking holes 213 to adjust the clamping distance between the movable clamp body 22 and the fixed clamp body 21, thus allowing clamping of components with different pipe diameters and applicable to various scenarios. The ball joint 24 is mounted on the fixed clamp body 21 via a connecting rod 241 and is connected to a spherical positioning groove 15. The ball joint 24 can be adjusted at any angle within the spherical positioning groove 15, satisfying the functions of supporting the fan handle and fine-tuning the umbrella handle angle.

[0026] This invention allows a straight-handled umbrella to be connected to nearby components through the combination of a clamping member and a connecting clip, making it suitable for various usage scenarios. The umbrella's own weight is used to achieve multi-angle adjustments through the cooperation of a ball joint and a ball positioning groove 15.

[0027] The above embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made to the present invention by those skilled in the art should fall within the scope of the appended claims.
