An indirect lighting assembly for a shade structure including a lighting assembly, preferably in the form of an LED array, mounted on a hub of the shade structure and movable therewith concurrent to opening and closing of a canopy of the shade structure. The illumination source is disposed on an inner end of the hub and oriented to direct illumination outwardly therefrom onto an interior surface of the canopy. A control assembly is operatively connected to the lighting assembly in current regulating relation to LED array and comprises touch control switching operative to regulate current flow thereto. The touch control switching includes a touch control member connected to the hub and movable therewith into an overhead, access restricting position concurrent to disposition of the canopy in an open orientation.

An intelligent shading umbrella comprises a base assembly, an umbrella support assembly coupled to a base assembly, a first memory, a first processor coupled to the first memory, and a computing device, wherein the computing device has a non-volatile memory having computer-readable instructions stored thereon, a second memory, and a second processor. A first processor communicates commands and/or signals to the umbrella support assembly to cause movement of the umbrella support assembly. A second processor, of the computing device, is enclosed within the intelligent shading object fetches computer-readable instructions from the non-volatile memory, loads the computer-readable instructions from the non-volatile memory into the second memory, and executes the computer-readable instructions to communicate with external computing devices and/or to generate commands and/or signals to the first processor to request movements of the umbrella shading assembly.

An intelligent umbrella includes a base assembly, a center support assembly having one or more arm support assemblies, and one or more arms coupled to the one or more arm support assemblies. The center support assembly is a tubular structure to house electrical and mechanical components. The umbrella includes a computing device, the computing device integrated inside the center support assembly. The computing device includes one or more memory devices, one or more processors and computer-readable instructions stored in the one or more memory devices and executable by the one or more processors. The intelligent umbrella includes a shading fabric. The intelligent umbrella includes a camera, the camera to capture images of an area in proximity to the intelligent shading umbrella, the camera integrated inside the center support assembly.

This invention provides a sunshade and a sunshade base thereof. The sunshade base, configured to be connected with a sunshade rod to support a sunshade top, the sunshade includes: a support, an upper side of the support is provided with a connection member for being connected with the sunshade rod; a moving assembly, rolling or sliding to drive the support to move; and a counterweight, the support has a counterweight area for supporting the counterweight. When the sunshade needs to be moved, it only needs to drive the moving assembly to roll or slide, thereby driving the support and the whole sunshade to move. Compared with the prior art in which several people is required to work together to move the sunshade, this invention greatly reduces the labor intensity of moving the sunshade, thereby making the moving of the sunshade more time-saving and labor-saving.
