Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To take care of a wetted umbrella without any need of touching by fitting a cord having a weight to the end of an umbrella fastener so that the fastener is easily wound around the umbrella via the swing of the umbrella in a folded state and turn the weight. SOLUTION: A cord 3 with a weight 4 is connected to the end of an umbrella fastener 1 via ring 2. On the other hand, a hook 5 is fitted to a projected snap fitted to the root of the fastener 1. The umbrella, when folded after use, is horizontally held and the whole of the umbrella is lightly swung for turning the weight 4, thereby winding the fastener 1 around the umbrella. In this case, the fastener 1 is lightly wound, compared with the case of being manually secured, and the ring 2 at the end of the fastener 1 comes to be overlapped on the hook 5. As a result, when the umbrella is made to stand, the hook 5 catches the ring 2, and the umbrella is neatly folded without looseness. Also, when the umbrella is folded and then carried, the end of the hook 2 is collapsed, thereby preventing the ring 2 from being detached.
