A multi-piece umbrella pole that includes first and second pole sections that are assembled into an elongate umbrella pole. The pole sections include an alignment notch and cross pin for facilitating assembly of the two pole sections. An outer sleeve includes a button assembly that can actuate a detent pin for coupling or decoupling the pole sections. The outer sleeve can also include an actuator for a tilt mechanism that angles a canopy portion of the umbrella assembly.

A beach umbrella includes a main pole and an inner telescoping pole. The main pole has a hollow interior. The main pole includes a pointed closed end and an open end for accessing the hollow interior. A slide hammer feature of the main pole is positioned between the pointed closed end and the open end. The inner telescoping pole includes a retractable umbrella canopy. The inner telescoping pole with the retractable umbrella canopy is configured to telescopically extend from within the hollow interior of the main pole. Wherein, when the retractable umbrella canopy is retracted to a collapsed position, the inner telescoping pole is configured to telescopically slide inside of the hollow interior of the main pole. And when the inner telescoping pole is telescopically extended out from the hollow interior of the main pole, the retractable umbrella canopy is configured to extend out into an extended umbrella position.

A parasol includes a pole of a tension rod-type between a ceiling surface and a floor surface of a building, a lower hub penetrated by the pole and moves in the vertical direction along the pole, an upper hub fixed to a predetermined position of the pole, ribs joined to the upper hub, struts provided with respect to each rib and connecting the ribs and the lower hub, a handle operation unit for moving the lower hub along the pole, and a sheet between the ribs. The pole is divided into an outer pipe, a ceiling pipe attached to an upper side of the outer pipe, and a lower side pipe attached to a lower side of the outer pipe. The length of the pole in the vertical direction is adjustable while the position of the sheet is maintained at a height within a certain range from the floor surface.

A deployable frame for a weather and/or sun protection device, including: a mast with a longitudinal axis on which a slider is mounted so as to slide between a first position in which the frame is closed and a second position in which the frame is open; at least one rib connected by a stretcher to the runner, the rib including an end connected to a notch carried by one end of the mast, wherein the rib includes a first segment formed of a first part and a second part that are movable relative to each other about the extension axis of the first segment, the first part of the first segment of the rib is connected to the notch by a pivot connection about an axis which is perpendicular to a plane inclined obliquely to the longitudinal axis of the mast so that in the first closed position of the frame the first segment of the rib extends along the mast and in the second open position of the frame the first segment of the rib is moved away from the mast.

Disclosed are an umbrella pole device, an electric umbrella and a telescopic device. The umbrella pole device includes an umbrella head, a middle rod, and an umbrella pole transmission assembly. The middle rod includes a plurality of casings, the casing in an innermost part of the middle rod is an inner casing, the casing in an outermost part of the middle rod is an outer casing, and one end of the inner casing is connected to the umbrella head. The umbrella pole transmission assembly is arranged in the inner casing, including a first transmission tube and a second transmission tube. The first transmission tube is telescopically sleeved with the second transmission tube. One end of the transmission tube is rotatably connected to the umbrella head, and one of the first transmission tube and the second transmission tube is a rectangular spring.

The invention is an umbrella-like canopy assembly and the container in which it can be stored. The resulting apparatus can be secured to a hand-controlled mobile carrier. The canopy assembly can be moved from a storage position within the container and then opened to cover, in the least, a portion of the container and preferably one or more areas designated by the user of the mobile carrier. With the apparatus secured to the mobile carrier, for instance, the user and also preferably the contents of the carrier can be shield from the sun and other environmental elements (e.g., rain, snow, and wind). The main parts of the apparatus are the canopy assembly, which is attached to the inside of the container, and means for securing the container to the mobile carrier.
