The electrically conductive light-emitting fibers also have a waterproof function.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of umbrellas, and particularly to an umbrella with a light-emitting surface.

Background Art

[0002] In the conventional umbrella design, attention is mainly paid to the functions of rain protection and sunshade, and the visibility when used at night or in a low-visibility environment is not considered. However, with the development of science and technology and the increasing emphasis on people's safety, several innovative design concepts have been introduced into the umbrella design. For example, by integrating a light-emitting device into the umbrella design, the warning and decorative properties of the umbrella under night or low-visibility conditions can be enhanced, and potential safety risks can be reduced. However, current light-emitting umbrellas mainly focus on the field of straight umbrellas and ignore the folding umbrellas that are most commonly used for the convenience of going out in daily life. Due to features such as the folding function and small storage volume, folding umbrellas have a larger number of users and a wider range of use than straight umbrellas. However, the conventional light-emitting design of folding umbrellas faces the following technical bottlenecks. First, the light-emitting positions are limited to rigid members such as the umbrella handle and umbrella ribs, and a flexible light-emitting pattern on the surface of the umbrella cloth cannot be realized. Second, it is difficult to dynamically adjust the length of the electrical connection line according to the expansion and contraction of the folding umbrella rod, and it is easy to get entangled or pulled and damaged. Third, when a light-emitting device is installed on the umbrella cloth, the conventional light-emitting devices (such as LED light bars, EL cold light sheets) are hard and have poor folding properties. When folded repeatedly, creases, breakage, and volume increase are likely to occur, and they cannot adapt to the repeated opening and closing needs of the umbrella cloth. Fourth, folding umbrellas are more complex than straight umbrellas.

[0003] Third, when a light-emitting device is installed on the umbrella cloth, the conventional light-emitting devices (such as LED light bars, EL cold light sheets) are hard and have poor folding properties.

[0020] The core of this invention is to provide an umbrella whose surface emits light so that the light-emitting pattern 3 can be arranged on the umbrella fabric 4. It is to provide.

[0021] The following examples will be described with reference to the attached drawings. Note that the following examples are based on the claims. This does not serve any limiting role to the invention described within the scope of this section. Furthermore, the following Not all of the configurations shown in the examples are necessarily essential to the solution of the invention described in the claims. No. For the sake of clarity, the attached drawings only show the parts relevant to the related invention. In the absence of collision, the embodiments and features of the present invention can be combined with each other. They can be combined.

[0022] The umbrella fabric 4 is suitable for the umbrella body structure of a folding umbrella and a straight umbrella, where the umbrella body structure of both is The umbrella structure of the folding umbrella includes an extendable umbrella pole 2 and a foldable umbrella rib frame 7. The umbrella body structure of a straight umbrella includes a straight umbrella pole 20 and a straight umbrella rib frame 22. And there's a difference.

[0023] [Example 1] Referring to Figures 1 to 7, an embodiment of the present invention discloses a folding umbrella whose surface emits light. This folding umbrella consists of a foldable umbrella frame 7, an umbrella fabric 4, and an extendable umbrella pole 2. It includes an umbrella handle 1, a drive circuit board 10, and a power supply component 9. Here, a light-emitting pattern 3 is provided on the surface of the umbrella fabric 4. The umbrella frame 7 has multiple foldable umbrella ribs 5, and the umbrella fabric 4 is a foldable umbrella The foldable umbrella frame 7 is provided on rib 5, and during the folding and unfolding process, it is foldable The umbrella frame 5 and umbrella fabric 4 are folded and unfolded, One end of the retractable umbrella pole 2 is connected to the foldable umbrella rib frame 7, and the retractable umbrella An umbrella handle 1 is provided at the other end of the rod 2, and the inside of the retractable umbrella rod 2 is a retractable passage 17 and The storage passage 18 is at least partially partitioned, and the retractable passage 17 is the retractable position of the retractable umbrella pole 2. Used to install the fixed structure 12, the electrical connection wires 6 are partially inside the housing passage 18. The drive circuit board 10 is mounted on the umbrella handle 1 and is located inside the umbrella handle 1. It is electrically connected to the light-emitting pattern 3 via the electrical connection line 6, and the connection point is connected The wire terminal 13 is protected and fixed, and the power supply component 9 is located inside the umbrella handle 1, and the power supply Component 9 is electrically connected to the drive circuit board 10.

[0024] Furthermore, the surface of the umbrella fabric 4 is provided with a light-emitting pattern 3, This is achieved by attaching the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 to the umbrella fabric 4 by embroidery, sewing, or adhesive. This is an electrically conductive light-emitting pattern formed by this process. Note that the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 is a conventional technology This is a newly released flexible light-emitting device that is available on the market, and it consists of a core layer (light-emitting material). It consists of a material and a coating layer (transparent insulating layer), and when electricity is applied, the conductive material emits light, and it has Waterproof, uniform and soft illumination, rich colors, low power consumption, no heat radiation, and small wire diameter. It is highly flexible and features such as machine knitting, sewing, embroidery, and adhesive properties, and also My The eggplant can be used within a temperature range of 30°C to 150°C. An embodiment of this invention is an electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 30 1. Not limited to any manufacturer. The illuminated pattern when powered on can be any letter, symbol, real-world pattern, or character. - This may be a pattern or a combination thereof, and this embodiment does not limit the specific shape of the electrically conductive light-emitting pattern. Undetermined.

[0025] The electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 is already being used in fields such as the manufacture of electronic products and clothing. Furthermore, its installation process is simple and suitable for large-scale industrial production, but conventional EL (Ele (Ctro Luminescent, Electroluminescent) Cold Light Sheet and Cold Light Ray Alternatively, the light-emitting wire has luminescence and a certain soft, foldable property, but it is decorative light emission. When it is provided on the surface of the umbrella fabric 4 as one of the devices, a series of problems arise, for example, EL When attaching the umbrella fabric 4 using a cool light sheet, the process mainly involves hot stamping or adhesive bonding. The back is directly bonded, or hot stamped onto the surface of the umbrella fabric 4. Such bonding methods are multiple Not only is it poorly made, but when it is secondarily closed and folded during later use, the entire thickness becomes bulky. As the amount increases, the hardness increases and the softness decreases, the umbrella fabric 4 cannot be stored completely snugly. It is not possible to fold it, and even if you try to store it, the volume of the umbrella fabric 4 becomes thick, making it difficult to fold and store. However, patterns consisting of EL cold rays or light rays have a minimum diameter of 1.3 mm. It can bend to a certain extent, but the bending width is usually not less than 1.3 mm, and the whole Because its inherent stiffness and quality are far superior to ordinary spun yarn, the patterns that can be created are limited by this. Furthermore, the pattern lacks detail, the overall design is stiff, and it is often difficult to fold. There are also limitations on the size and dimensions of the luminescent patterns created with the L-type cold light sheet or cold light rays, and they cannot be folded multiple times. When folded, the cooling sheet and cooling rays have creases, and the joint with the umbrella fabric 4 deteriorates and cracks. There are problems such as suction. However, the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 is different from conventional light-emitting devices. Lightweight, thinner in diameter, expandable, highly waterproof, washable, and highly weather-resistant. It has features such as a long illumination time, uniform brightness, and rich color range. The diameter of fiber 301 is only 0.1 to 0.5 mm, and its softness and quality are as follows. It closely matches conventional spun yarn, can be folded and bent, and is not affected by its luminescence performance. Unlike regular spun yarn, the embroidery method and stitching depend on the type of pattern created. Parameters such as type, stitch spacing, and stitch density (when the pattern mainly consists of blocks of color, You can choose between flat embroidery or tacking stitches, and if the pattern mainly consists of outlines, rope stitches are used. Adjust the embroidery (select) to create different specifications, sizes, shapes, and colored luminescence patterns on the surface of the umbrella. It can be sewn on or embroidered, and the detail of its luminescence pattern is stronger than that of conventional cold rays. And simple straight lines are directly bonded to the surface of the umbrella fabric 4 with a professional textile adhesive. The aforementioned specialized textile adhesive is an existing product on the market, provides strong adhesion, and is water-resistant. It has characteristics such as being strong, not hardening, and having a long lifespan, and the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 is connected to the umbrella fabric 4. The goal is to ensure that the bonded material is strong, durable, and does not affect normal use. Yes, it is possible. Therefore, the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 can be sewn onto the surface of the umbrella fabric 4 by the equipment or by hand. It can be used for embroidery and gluing, and the supply voltage and power are both the same. In some cases, the size and dimensions of the luminous pattern created by it are all different from conventional EL cooling. It is significantly superior to light sheets or cold rays.

[0026] As shown in Figure 2, the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 is sewn, glued, or embroidered. The luminescent pattern 3 can be tightly attached to the umbrella fabric 4, and the umbrella fabric 4 It does not affect the ability to close and store properly, and is more flexible and convenient to use, with an luminous design. Effectively improves adhesion and uniformity. By changing the bonding method, the conventional light-emitting device and umbrella This simultaneously solves the problem of relatively rapid deterioration at the joint with fabric 4, and also enables luminescence. Since it is a fiber wire, when it is attached to the umbrella fabric 4 by embroidery or sewing, the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 3 01 forms mirror-image running threads on both the front and back surfaces of the umbrella fabric 4, and the resulting luminescent pattern also exhibits a double-sided luminescence effect. Yes, the fact that luminous patterns can be seen on both the inside and outside of the umbrella is a case that has not been seen with conventional technology. By enhancing the decorative and warning aspects of the umbrella's luminous pattern, and using it in advertising, the reach of the advertisement increases. By widening the gap, it becomes easier to notice others at night or in low-visibility environments, and pedestrians and children carrying umbrellas. Improves human visibility and safety, reduces the risk of traffic accidents, and features luminous patterns. The addition of the third element gives the umbrella a unique fashion sense and distinctive design, differentiating it and increasing its appeal to consumers. To encourage consumer choice and increase purchasing intent.

[0027] Furthermore, the waterproof function of the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 allows it to be used outdoors, and Furthermore, even when used on rainy days, it does not affect the luminescence effect of the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301, so it can be used in umbrellas. It may also be done by embroidery, sewing, or bonding with fabric adhesive to the electrically conductive and light-emitting fiber wire 301. It is laid on the surface of the umbrella fabric 4 without destroying the waterproof effect of the umbrella fabric 4. As such, the umbrella fabric 4 of the umbrella is usually a bricolage structure, and each bricolage unit The parts of the harness are connected by stitching at the joints, and can be verified based on actual usage experience. This is possible. Similarly, because the diameter of the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 is relatively thin, the effect of using the umbrella fabric 4 is It will not destroy it.

[0028] Of course, if a relatively high level of waterproofing is required, a transparent area can be used in the luminescent pattern 3 region. A waterproof sealing film is applied to create a sealing and waterproof effect (transparent waterproof sealing films are existing products on the market, and here...) This can improve (the ingredients and principles will not be described). However, in reality Verification shows that the product can meet the needs of use on rainy days even without applying a sealing film.

[0029] Furthermore, in this invention, the end of the retractable umbrella pole 2 toward the foldable umbrella rib frame 7 An outlet 16 is provided in the side wall, and one end of the electrical connection wire 6 is connected via the outlet 16. A foldable umbrella that can be electrically connected to a luminescent pattern 3 that can be drilled out. The frame 7 has multiple foldable umbrella ribs 5, thereby connecting one end of the electrical connection wire 6. It is installed hidden along the foldable umbrella ribs 5 after being drilled out through the outlet 16, and The light-emitting pattern 3 is electrically connected via the wire terminal 13. The material constituting the line 3 is an electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301, and at the end of the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 This ensures that two positive and negative connections are made that need to be electrically connected to the electrical connection line 6, and the electrical connection Wire 6 is a set of two positive and negative connections secured at the end of the energized light-emitting fiber wire 301 via the connection terminal 13. This fixed connection makes the connection point less prone to breakage and provides waterproof insulation to the connection point. This ensures that the connection terminal 13 is a general electronic connection device and has waterproof and insulating properties. Furthermore, it strengthens the connection at the electrical wire connection point and also serves as an insulating and waterproofing function. The outer layer of the electrical connection wire 6 has an insulating layer, and the positive and negative terminals of the electrical connection wire 6 and the energized light-emitting fiber wire 301 are connected. In addition to protecting and securing the connection terminal 13 at the point where the wiring is connected, waterproof insulation should be provided by any other method. It can be secured, for example by wrapping it with insulating tape or covering it with an insulating cover. Waterproof insulation and fixing can be performed.

[0030] The umbrella fabric 4 is attached to the outside of the foldable umbrella ribs 5, and the electrical connection wires 6 are on the inside of the umbrella. It is installed and concealed along the foldable umbrella ribs 5, thereby concealing the electrical connection wires 6 To prevent exposure and to protect from rainwater or sunlight, the lifespan of the product will be extended. Thus, when the electrical connection wire 6 is opened and closed together with the folding umbrella... This results in a more stable and smoother operation, and reduces interference and entanglement between the electrical connection wire 6 and the foldable umbrella ribs 5. To avoid spills, the foldable umbrella ribs 5 are provided with wire grooves into which electrical connection wires 6 are embedded. This allows for the concealment of the electrical connection wires 6. Of course, the foldable umbrella ribs 5 It is provided in a hollow structure so that the electrical connection wires 6 can be hidden. Or the umbrella fabric is placed inside the umbrella fabric 4. A sandwich is constructed, and the electrical connection wires 6 are installed in the umbrella fabric sandwich and laid and secured along the umbrella ribs 5. It can be fixed and similarly achieve the effect of concealed placement. Among them, a foldable umbrella frame Since Mu7 is a conventional technology, here we will explain its specific structure and folding principle. I won't explain any further.

[0031] One end of the retractable umbrella pole 2 is connected to the foldable umbrella rib frame 7, and the other end is connected to a U The handle 1 of the umbrella, which is the gripping end of the umbrella, is provided. The retractable umbrella pole 2 is fitted with multiple extensions in sequence. It may include retractable rods, each of which is fitted into and slidable relative to one another. This makes the retractable umbrella pole 2 retractable. The surface of the umbrella glows when folded and stored. In that case, the retractable umbrella pole 2 can be shortened in length to facilitate storage. When the luminous umbrella is opened, the retractable umbrella pole 2 extends in length, raising the height of the umbrella fabric 4. It can be raised to make it easier to block rainwater. Based on this, this embodiment is retractable. The portion of the electrical connection wire 6 located inside the umbrella pole 2 is provided with a retractable spring-like structure -- attached to the spiral wire 15. Preferably, the diameter of the spiral wire 15 is about 2 mm, and the spiral wire 15 is made of silver. It uses a plated copper core and a silicone rubber insulating layer, and the umbrella pole can be adjusted from its shortest state (25cm) to its longest state. When stretched to 65 cm, the natural elongation length of the spiral is 70 cm, with a redundancy of 5 cm. Secure it and do not pull it. While the umbrella with the luminous surface is open, the electrical connection wire 6 The length is insufficient to avoid affecting the power supply to the light-emitting pattern 3. Spiral The wire 15 has relatively good stretchability, extends as needed, and automatically retracts when the umbrella is stored. The retractable umbrella pole 2 expands and contracts, and the spiral wires 15 inside it expand and contract when the umbrella pole is retracted and extended. Along with rod 2, it contracts and expands, potentially causing the electrical connection wires 6 to become entangled or form knots. It can reduce the amount of wire needed, increase efficiency during use, save space, and is flexible compared to straight wires. By providing flexibility and flexibility, the risk of tearing or breaking due to compression is effectively reduced. This protects the internal wiring and extends the lifespan of the electrical wires.

[0032] Considering that the retractable umbrella pole 2 has a multi-section interlocking structure, the inside of each section of the retractable pole body contains A telescopic positioning structure 12 is attached to fix the length after extension, allowing the telescopic rod to quickly retract. It is used to assist in this process, or to provide fixed support and positioning during extension. The spiral wire 15 and the retractable positioning structure 12 are inevitably affected by contact within the same space, and the umbrella is in the correct position. Because it cannot be opened and closed at all times, in order to avoid such a situation, in an embodiment of the present invention, it is retractable. The umbrella pole 2 has been improved from a conventional single-tube structure to a double-tube interconnected structure, and its cross-sectional shape is roughly "8" shaped. As shown in Figure 7, this improvement increases the internal space of the umbrella pole in the lateral direction, The telescopic positioning structure 12 and the spiral wire 15 are separated into two spaces within the same telescopic umbrella pole 2. It can be set up in such a way that both can be used normally, and at the same time, they do not affect each other. This achieves physical isolation between the mechanical structure and the circuit system. And, if the materials are the same, The improved double-tube interconnected structure is superior to the conventional single-tube structure in terms of stability and strength, The double-tube joint structure allows the load to be evenly distributed between the two tube sections, unlike the single-tube structure. By reducing the load and reinforcing the two pipe sections by supporting each other, the overall structure becomes more stable. This enhances the structure, and through this interaction, it has better resistance to fluidity when subjected to lateral loads. It reduces the risk of the structure becoming warped or unstable.

[0033] Furthermore, this double-tube connected structure has two passages inside the retractable umbrella pole 2, each extending The retractable passage 17 and the storage passage 18 can be physically separated, and the retractable passage 17 is like a retractable umbrella. Used to attach the telescopic positioning structure 12 of rod 2, the housing passage 18 is for spiral wires Used to accommodate 15, thereby connecting the retractable positioning structure 12 and the spiral wire 15 They do not interfere with each other, and when the retractable umbrella pole 2 is in the retracted or extended state, the spiral wire 15 and the retracted position Interference with the defining structure 12 is avoided, the spatial division is rational, and it is safe and reliable.

[0034] Furthermore, the telescopic positioning structure 12 installed within the telescopic passage 17 is positioned to accommodate two adjacent telescopic passages. It is used to fix the retractable rod. The two retractable rods, which can be fitted together arbitrarily, are either It is also fixed by the telescopic positioning structure 12. Its principle of use is that the telescopic positioning structure 12 It is installed inside the telescopic passage 17 of the telescopic rod located on the inside, and the telescopic rod located on the outside has a position A fixing hole 14 is provided. When the two telescopic rods that are fitted together are extended to their longest length, the telescopic position The positioning end of the fixing structure 12 is positioned in relation to the positioning hole 14 on the telescopic rod body, which is located just outside. Accordingly, it is fitted into the positioning hole 14, achieving mutual fixing of the two telescopic rods. If you need to retract the two telescopic rods, simply push them firmly in opposite directions. The positioning end of the positioning structure 12 can be forcibly retracted from the positioning hole 14. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the telescopic positioning structure 12 of the retractable umbrella pole 2 is a positioning pin It may include a spring, a spring holder (which may be a spring pin, spring ball, etc.), and each A positioning hole 14 is provided on one side of the telescopic rod body of each section, via a positioning pin. Positioning is performed by drilling a positioning hole 14, and this expandable positioning structure 12 is a conventional technology Therefore, I will not explain its specific structure and principles any further.

[0035] In this embodiment, the spiral electric wire 15 located within the housing passage 18 is pulled, displaced, or broken. To prevent damage, both ends of the spiral wire 15 are attached to the upper and lower ends of the retractable umbrella pole 2. The spiral wire 15 is restrained by fixing it at the end position with a fixing device, ensuring reliability when folding and unfolding. It can improve sexual performance.

[0036] Specifically, the fixing device for the spiral wire 15 is a fixing plug 8, and the fixing plug 8 is connected to the wire outlet 16 It is inserted into the fixing plug 8, and a through hole is made through it, thereby connecting one end of the spiral electric wire 15. It can pass through the outlet 16 via a through hole, and the fixing plug 8 is made of soft rubber material or It can be made of elastic plastic material, and the fixing plug 8 may have a conical structure. When using, first pass one end of the spiral wire 15 through the intermediate through-hole of the fixing plug 8, then fix it. Insert the plug 8 into the wire outlet 16. The diameter of one end of the fixed plug 8 is larger than the diameter of the hole in the wire outlet 16. Because the diameter of the other end is smaller than the diameter of the hole in the wire outlet 16, the fixing plug 8 fits snugly into the hole in the wire outlet 16. As it gets stuck, the through hole inside the fixing plug 8 is also pressed and deformed accordingly. Furthermore, by securely fixing the spiral wire 15 (Figure 6), the spiral inside the retractable umbrella pole 2 is secured. The length of the spiral wire 15 changes as the umbrella pole expands and contracts, and at the same time its fixing plug 8 is made of an elastic material. Therefore, after deforming and tightening, the wire outlet 16 can be securely sealed, and thus The retractable umbrella pole 2 has excellent sealing and waterproofing inside, making it a retractable umbrella for rainy days. Ensure that even if rainwater adheres to rod 2, the internal circuitry will function normally and will not be affected. It is possible.

[0039] The drive circuit board 10 is located inside the umbrella handle 1 and is electrically connected to the power supply component 9. The function of the drive circuit board 10 is to convert internal electronic components, thereby enabling power supply components. The voltage input from the terminal 9 is adjusted to an operating voltage suitable for the emission of light from the energized light-emitting fiber wire 301. The output voltage is typically 3.7V, and the output voltage is 80V or higher. The drive circuit board 10 is electrically connected to the light-emitting pattern 3 via the electrical connection line 6. Furthermore, the connection terminals 13 are protected and fixed at the connection points, forming a complete power supply path.

[0040] In this embodiment, a control switch 11 (as shown in Figure 3) is provided on the surface of the umbrella handle 1. The control switch 11 controls the on / off state of the drive circuit board 10, and the light-emitting pattern The power supply status of N3 is further controlled to enable the illumination and deactivation of the luminescent pattern 3.

[0041] Furthermore, the energized light-emitting fiber wire 301 is powered by the drive circuit board 10 and the power supply component for light emission. Although it requires a 9, the drive circuit board 10 and power supply component 9 can be made smaller and lighter. It can fit into the space of an umbrella handle and does not require the power components of other electronically emitting devices. Suitable for mounting inside the handle 1 of an umbrella, which is smaller than the net 9 and drive circuit board 10. It is lightweight and easy to carry.

[0042] Specifically, the power supply component 9 should preferably use a 3.7V rechargeable battery. It seems that a charging socket is provided on one side of the umbrella handle 1, and it can be charged via the charging socket. It can charge batteries, and of course, the power component 9 can be a standard dry cell battery. The power supply component 9 is responsible for supplying power to the drive circuit board 10. Both component 9 and the drive circuit board 10 are existing products available on the market. Here, without emphasizing its internal structure and operating principle, when installing it, the inside of the umbrella handle 1 and the electricity The power source component 9 and the drive circuit board 10 are coated with a three-layer waterproof coating to ensure waterproofing and safety in the future. The only thing to emphasize is that it needs to be protected. Three types of protective coatings are polymers commonly found in the electronics product field. It is a coating material whose main function is to protect circuit boards and components from harsh environments. Yes, it has moisture-proof, mold-proof, and salt-proof properties.

[0043] When in use, when the umbrella is opened, the first section of the foldable umbrella frame 7 and the retractable umbrella pole 2 The retractable rod begins to slide upward and attaches to the foldable umbrella frame 7. The five foldable umbrella ribs gradually spread out, and the first section of the retractable rod begins to slide. At the same time, the second section of the extendable rod slides, and the first section of the extendable rod moves to the second section. When it moves to the telescopic positioning structure 12 inside the telescopic rod body, the position of the telescopic positioning structure 12 The fixing pin protrudes from within the positioning hole 14, locking the position of the first section of the extendable rod. The second telescopic rod continues to extend and move, and the second telescopic rod continues to extend and move as the third section extends and moves. When the possible rod body moves to the telescopic positioning structure 12, the positioning pin of the telescopic positioning structure 12 It pops out from within the positioning hole 14 and locks the position of the second section of the extendable rod, and with this The three-section retractable rod is fully extended and fixed, and at this time, the retractable umbrella pole 2 is fully extended. The spiral wire 15 inside the retractable umbrella pole 2 is connected until the retractable umbrella pole 2 is fully extended. During this process, the wire is gradually stretched and extended, and the stretching process of the spiral wire 15 is completed (Figure 5). ). Afterwards, the foldable umbrella frame 7 slides to the top position of the retractable umbrella pole 2. The five foldable umbrella ribs lock when extended and foldable. The umbrella fabric 4 attached to it is also fully unfolded accordingly, and at this time, the control switch 1 on the umbrella handle 1 When 1 is pressed, the drive circuit board 10 connected to the power supply component 9 energizes the light-emitting fiber wire 3. Power is supplied to 01, and a light-emitting model consisting of energized light-emitting fiber wires 301 is sewn onto the surface of the umbrella fabric 4. The light starts to turn on, and the process of the umbrella illuminating is now complete. The umbrella is foldable for storage. By sliding the frame 7 downwards, the foldable umbrella ribs 5 and umbrella fabric 4 can be folded inwards. All of the retractable and telescopic positioning structures 12 within the retractable umbrella pole 2 are positioned by positioning hole 1. Starting from 4, the retractable rod begins to retract downwards one section at a time, and the retractable umbrella pole 2 The internal spiral wires 15 are also gradually compressed into a tightly packed state, and finally the umbrella fabric 4 and the foldable umbrella are formed. Rib 5 closes completely, and the entire umbrella storage process is complete (Figure 4).

[0044] Firstly, as can be seen from the above description, the above embodiment of the present invention achieves the following technical effects. The folding umbrella whose surface emits light according to this invention utilizes a new type of flexible light-emitting device -- electrically conductive light-emitting fiber. Using the fiber 301, it is seamlessly attached to the umbrella fabric 4 by embroidery, sewing, or bonding. By incorporating this technology, the conventional problems of increased rigidity and volume after folding of light-emitting devices are solved. And ensure that the umbrella fabric 4 is properly closed and stored. And that the fiber wires emit light through it. Therefore, when attached to an umbrella by embroidery or sewing, the electrically conductive light-emitting fiber wire 301 By forming mirror-image running threads on both the front and back surfaces of the umbrella fabric 4, the luminous pattern sewn on is... This is visible on both the inside and outside, which is not found in other conventional light-emitting devices, and significantly improves the warning effect. Secondly, the umbrella pole of conventional folding umbrellas has a single-pipe structure, and the internal space and structural stability are poor. There are limitations to the design, and this invention employs a double-tube connection structure to increase the internal space. Furthermore, by physically separating the retractable passage 17 and the storage passage 18, when folding the umbrella... To prevent parts from colliding and becoming tattered, while simultaneously increasing structural stability. Thirdly, If straight wiring is used for the electrical connection wires inside the retractable umbrella pole 2, the wires will be subjected to tension when the umbrella pole is extended or retracted. It is considered that it is prone to breaking when subjected to force. This invention uses a spiral wire 15 instead of a straight wire. The telescopic umbrella pole 2 is used, and its relative position is fixed at both the upper and lower ends with fixing plugs 8, and the wire outlet 1 By adding protective ring 19 to 6, friction between the power line and the inner wall of the umbrella pole is reduced, ensuring safe long-term use. To improve overall performance. Fourthly, the drive circuit board 10 and power supply component 9 have been miniaturized. It is designed to fit the space of a folding umbrella handle, is lightweight, and easy to carry. Fifthly, it is waterproof. In terms of performance, the light-emitting fiber wire 301 itself is waterproof, and the electrical connection wire 6 and the energized light-emitting fiber wire 3 At the connection point with 01, waterproof insulation is provided and secured with a connection terminal 13, and the electrical connection wire 6 is connected to the umbrella rib. They are laid concealed along the cable channel or umbrella cloth sandwich, and exposed to avoid contact with rainwater. Sometimes, sealing the outlet 16 with the fixed valve 8 prevents rainwater from entering the circuit and causing damage. Finally, the drive circuit board 10 and power supply component 9 were miniaturized and mounted inside the umbrella handle 1. Furthermore, a protective coating is applied to the interior to provide waterproofing, insulation, and protection, further enhancing safety.
