Abstract
Description
Technical area:
[0001] The invention relates to structural elements of portable handheld devices, in particular collapsible umbrellas, and relates to the design of a handle with an integrated compartment for storing an accessory - the protective cover. State of the art (technical problem):
[0002] With folding umbrellas, the covers are often lost or forgotten, especially after use in the rain, when the cover is necessary for transporting the wet umbrella. The lack of a cover causes inconvenience, as the wet umbrella can soak other items in the bag or the user's clothing. Current technology does not provide a way to store the cover directly inside the umbrella body. Object of the invention:
[0003] The object of the invention is to equip the handle of a collapsible umbrella with an integrated compartment (cavity) with a lid for storing a flexible, water-repellent cover. The compartment is located inside the handle body and allows for permanent storage of the cover within the product without increasing its dimensions or hindering its use. Structural design:
[0004] The folding umbrella consists of conventional elements: a canopy, ribs, a telescopic shaft, and a handle. Inside the handle is a cylindrical or other-shaped cavity whose volume corresponds to the size of the folded umbrella. The opening is covered with a lid (e.g., screw-on, hinged, or magnetic). The umbrella is manually inserted into the compartment and removed when needed.
[0005] Advantages of the invention: • Loss of the cover is avoided • Convenient storage and transport of a wet umbrella • No additional space required in the bag • Increased ergonomics and functionality • Easy implementation and low production costs List of reference symbols: 1 handle of the umbrella 2 compartments for storing the protective cover 3 hinged lids
Claims
