The middle part of the first strut rod (10) is hinged with the middle part of the second strut rod (20). The two ends of the support rod (9) are hinged with the second strut rod (20) and the fixing plate (1) respectively. The control mechanism (7) is fixed on the fixing plate (1). The support block (21) is moveably fixed on the control mechanism (7). A rotating lockout mechanism (8) can also be set on the free arm umbrella so that the umbrella cover can be rotated easily. The free arm umbrella has advantages of simple structure, convenience of use, economic practicality, and being applicable to narrow space.

A rotary open-close type sun umbrella includes a standing post, umbrella ribs and umbrella cloths; an unfolding device is arranged at the upper end of the standing post, and the unfolding device is rotatably connected with the standing post; a plurality of umbrella ribs is arranged on the unfolding device, and the umbrella ribs are connected to umbrella cloths; each umbrella cloth is connected with two adjacent umbrella ribs, thus enabling the plurality of umbrella ribs and umbrella cloths to be sequentially connected to form an umbrella surface; the standing post is provided with a driving device, and the driving device is in transmission connection with the unfolding device, thereby allowing the umbrella surface to be unfolded or folded; the rotating arms are rotatably arranged on a mandrel; the mandrel propels one of the rotating arms and the corresponding umbrella rib to rotate.

The invention features a shade apparatus adapted to provide shade to an individual or individuals while they are outside and in need of shade from sunlight. Aspects of embodiments of the present invention contemplate a shade apparatus that is easily portable and easily adapted to the sun's changing positions, thereby providing the individual/user with shade from sunlight.

A rotating mechanism of a sunshade is disclosed to overcome the shortcomings of complicated structure, large weight, low stability, large package volume, high cost, and carrying hard in daily using according to the prior art. The rotating mechanism of a sunshade includes a sunshade canopy, a sunshade pole, a cantilever rod and a rotary device; wherein the rotary device is installed on a top end of the sunshade pole, the cantilever rod is detachably fixed to the rotary device, and the sunshade canopy is installed at one end of the cantilever rod; wherein the rotary device drives the sunshade canopy rotating around the sunshade pole via the cantilever rod.

An umbrella having a support arm, a canopy having a support hub defining a first axis, and a pivot joint coupling the support hub to the support structure. The pivot joint is rotatable with respect to the support structure, about a second axis at a fixed angle with respect to the support structure. The pivot joint has a rotatable joint axle rotatably coupled to the support structure, and a tilt joint axle having a first end rotatably coupled to the rotatable joint axle along an interface plane at an angle, and a second end coupled to the support hub, wherein the tilt joint axle defines a longitudinal third axis. The orientation of the canopy can be changed with respect to the support structure by rotating the rotatable joint axle about the second axis.

A sunshade mounting mechanism comprises a first connecting sleeve (3); a second connecting sleeve (4) disposed on the top of the bearing rod (2); a pin shaft (5); the first connecting sleeve (3) is rotatably connected to the second connecting sleeve (4) through the pin shaft (5), and a center line of rotation of the first connecting sleeve (3) intersects with the transverse direction of the main rod (11); the bearing rod (2) has a first through hole (20) for allowing the pin shaft (5) to pass through. In this mounting mechanism, the mounting angle and position of the main rod relative to the bearing rod can be freely adjusted. The pin shaft is allowed to pass through the periphery of the top of the bearing rod on the basis of connecting the first connecting sleeve and the second connecting sleeve. In this way, the connection of the three components, i.e., the first connecting sleeve, the second connecting sleeve and the bearing rod can be achieved by only one pin shaft. The mounting mechanism is simplified, the connection strength can be greatly increased, and the service life is greatly prolonged.

Disclosed herein is an outdoor sunshade with a sunshade cover capable of rotating 360 degrees, the outdoor sunshade including a sunshade post, where a sunshade frame is arranged on one side of the sunshade post; the sunshade post includes an upper sunshade post and a lower sunshade post, and the upper sunshade post is in inserting fit with the lower sunshade post; a rotating mechanism is arranged between the upper sunshade post and the lower sunshade post; and the rotating mechanism includes a lock seat, a locking mechanism located on the lock seat and a locking portion configured to match the locking mechanism, the locking portion includes a plurality of locking positions, the plurality of locking positions are arranged around the sunshade post by one circle, and the locking mechanism locks the upper sunshade post and the lower sunshade post by means of the locking positions.

A cantilever umbrella includes a canopy, a base, and an upright pole. The upright pole is disposed on the base. A locking block is fixedly disposed on the upright pole. A fixed rod, a first cantilever arm, and a second cantilever arm are disposed on the locking block. A connector on the first cantilever arm is connected to a protruding portion on the second cantilever arm through a second screw. After the first cantilever arm and the second cantilever arm are dismounted, a size of a transportation case can be reduced when the cantilever umbrella is packaged for transportation, and therefore, costs are reduced. When the first cantilever arm and the second cantilever arm slide in the locking block and a locking sliding sleeve, an angle of the canopy is adjusted with sliding of the first cantilever arm and the second cantilever arm.
