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 system for providing weather protection including shading in an automated and selective manner. The system includes an enclosure with an inner chamber and an outlet to the inner chamber. The system also includes a canopy and a deploy and retract assembly, which includes a canopy support assembly supporting the canopy. The deploy and retract assembly operates to move the canopy support assembly to move the canopy into the inner chamber and out of the inner chamber. The system further includes a controller generating control signals to operate the deploy and retract assembly. Specifically, this assembly is configured to retract the canopy by moving the canopy support assembly to move the canopy through the outlet into the inner chamber and further is configured to deploy the canopy by moving the canopy support assembly to move the canopy through the outlet to be at least partially outside of the inner chamber.

The present invention relates generally to an umbrella having a built-in waterproof case, in which a folded umbrella main body is accommodated in an umbrella handle, and more particularly to an umbrella having a built-in waterproof case, which, in order to carry or store a wet folding umbrella used, allows an umbrella handle and an umbrella top to be transformed into an umbrella storage case without using a separate plastic bag and then allows the umbrella to be easily opened or re-stored while allowing a folded umbrella body to be accommodated in the umbrella handle.

An umbrella assembly is described. Manual movement of a knob away from a handle moves each rib and a canopy to a position outside of an inner hollow component of a frame such that the umbrella assembly is in an open and in-use position. In the open and in-use position, a shape of each rib of the set of ribs is curved. Elastic potential energy of a spring located within the inner hollow component of the frame retracts each rib and the canopy into the inner hollow component of the frame. Each rib has a bending resistance such that when each rib is retracted into the inner hollow component of the frame, a shape of each rib moves towards a planar shape.

Disclosed herein are retractable umbrella frame devices comprising a base body structure at least partially surrounding a central axis structure. The central axis structure can be connected to a skeletal frame structure comprising a plurality of arms having a first end connected to the central axis structure and a second free end. The plurality of arms can be moveably connected to the central axis structure, such that the arms can be retracted into or extended from the base body structure. In some embodiments, the base body structure comprises open portions along its length. In some embodiments, the retractable umbrella frame devices further comprise one or more secondary support structures at least partially surrounding the base body structure. In some embodiments, the retractable umbrella frame devices can further comprise guide structures connected to the one or more secondary support structures and the arms of the skeletal frame structure.
