An umbrella includes a shaft including multiple inner tubes and an outer tube in which the multiple inner tubes are retractably received. One of the inner tubes that has a smallest diameter is connected to a cap on the top end of the shaft. A runner is movably mounted to the shaft and includes a release part. Multiple ribs are pivotably connected to the cap. Multiple stretchers are pivotably connected between the ribs and the runner. A gore is mounted to the ribs. A seat is mounted to the outer tube and includes a resilient protrusion protruding laterally therefrom. The resilient protrusion of the seat is engaged with the release part of the runner when the runner is moved to an umbrella-opening position to open the umbrella.

An umbrella has a plurality of ribs attached to a runner by main struts. The umbrella has an anti-inversion mechanism formed of a plurality of anti-inversion struts. Each anti-inversion strut is pivotally coupled to one respective main strut and is pivotally connected to a floating joint member that is freely movable along a length of one respective rib. The anti-inversion mechanism also includes a stop that is fixedly attached to the rib and restricts the degree of travel of the floating joint member along the rib and is positioned to prevent the respective rib from inverting in response to an applied force.

Disclosed are example embodiments of a 5-device-in-one component box including a plurality of cranking-arm-wrench storage clips respectively molded onto said undersurface of a multi-function loss-preventing storing-and-organizing lid-tray. The box includes a multi-link crank control arm wrench snap, a plurality of ground-securing-and-leveling-screws storage cavities, a plurality of Allen-wrench storage cavities; a plurality of Allen wrenches; a plurality of screws respectively stacked inside a second base-plate cover; a compartmentalized loss-preventing storing-and-organizing inner-tray, a plurality of louver end-caps, a plurality of crank-handle-coupler storage-stem molded onto said compartmentalized loss-preventing storing-and-organizing inner-tray, a crank-handle coupler snap-locked onto said crank-handle-coupler storage-stem, a plurality of compression-locking-plates storage compartments, a plurality of compression-locking plates respectively inserted and secured to said compression-locking-plates storage compartments; a plurality of drill-bit clips respectively molded onto said compartmentalized loss-preventing storing-and-organizing inner-tray; a drill bit snap-locked between said drill-bit clips; and fourth base-plate cover stacked right side up on said third base-plate cover.

An improved umbrella frame comprising a four-rib canopy frame comprising only five parts plus a simplified four-panel canopy that greatly reduces manufacturing costs. The frame comprises four arms that snap together with a tool-less tongue and groove connection around a central shaft, allowing the four-panel canopy to be stretched over top. The tongue and groove assembly forms an improved runner that gently slides up and down the central shaft to provide open and close functions. The improved umbrella frame is lightweight and may-be quickly and easily assembled and disassembled for packing or storage.
