[1193] Therefore, the twelve-different-application umbrella system: [1194] a) Can enable the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1195] to be screw-mounted to a wooden deck surface [1196] (FIG. 18B); [1197] b) Can enable the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1198] to be screw-mounted to a composite material deck surface [1199] (FIG. 18B); [1200] c) Can enable the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1201] to be concrete-anchor-mounted to a concrete patio surface [1202] (FIG. 18A); [1203] d) Can enable the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1204] to be concrete-anchor-mounted to a concrete restaurant floor surface [1205] (FIG. 18A); [1206] e) Can enable the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1207] to be concrete-anchor-mounted to a concrete sidewalk surface [1208] (FIG. 18A); [1209] f) Can enable the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1210] to be lag-bolted to an interior restaurant wood floor surface [1211] (FIG. 18B); and [1212] g) Can enable the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1213] to be lag-bolted to an asphalt parking lot surface [1214] (FIG. 18A). [1215] 11) It is still yet an even further object of the new invention to provide a twelve-different-application umbrella system, having a surface-conforming-and-protecting adaptor. [1216] Therefore, the twelve-different-application umbrella system: [1217] a) Can allow the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1218] to be securely and adjustably attached to many uneven surfaces at the same time [1219] (FIGS. 2A, 20A, and 20B); [1220] b) Can allow the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1221] to be securely and adjustably attached to many rocky surfaces at the same time [1222] (FIG. 20B); [1223] c) Can allow the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1224] to be securely and adjustably attached to a pebbly surface; [1225] d) Can allow the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1226] to be securely and adjustably attached to a flat surface; [1227] e) Can allow the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1228] to be securely and adjustably attached to an angled surface [1229] (FIGS. 2A, 20A, and 20B); [1230] f) Can allow the two pivotable umbrella-pole receiver systems, [1231] to be securely and adjustably attached to a rounded surface; [1232] g) Can removably and interchangeably allow a spiral umbrella spike system, or a trailer-hitch-adaptor tube, [1233] to be substituted for needed conditions and uses [1234] (FIGS. 17A, 17B, 18A, 18B, 19A, and 19B); and [1235] h) Can be made of soft, pliable, unabrasive material, [1236] to protect material surfaces to which it may be mounted, such as finished wood, paint, polished metal, or polished stone [1237] (FIGS. 16B, 17B, and 18B).
