DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
The sun and weather shelter of the present invention is generally designated by the reference numeral 10 in the drawings. The shelter 10 includes an umbrella 12 having a center post 14, a canopy 16, and frame members 18 extending between the canopy 16 and post 14. The outer ends of the frame members 18 are connected to the inside of the canopy 16, and the inner ends of the free members 18 are connected to a collar 20 slideably mounted on the post 14 such that the umbrella 12 can be opened and closed in a manner similar to conventional rain umbrellas. A clip or pin (not shown) on the collar 20 engages a hole (not shown) in the post 14 so as to maintain the canopy 16 in an opened condition. A button (not shown) on the collar 20 releases the clip or pin from the hole so that the collar 20 can slide downwardly along the post 14 so as to close the canopy 16. The shelter 10 includes a pair of wings or flaps 22 sewn, or otherwise attached in any convenient manner, to the outer periphery of the canopy 16. The wings 22 can be moved from a first position adjacent the canopy 16 to a second position extending laterally outwardly from the canopy 16. When the umbrella 12 is opened, the canopy 16 defines a primary coverage area.
When the wings 22 are opened to the extended position, the canopy 16 and wings 22 define and expanded secondary coverage area greater than the primary coverage area.
The wings or flaps 22 may include a ring 24 adapted to receive a stake (not shown) so as to secure the shelter 10 to the ground. Ring 24 may also be clipped to a clip 25 on the canopy 16 to maintain the wing 22 in the folded up or closed position.
The canopy 16 may include one or more windows for viewing through the canopy. The windows may be opaque plastic, or may be a mesh screen 26, as shown in Figures 1 and 2. A flap 28 is provided for covering each screen 26. The flap 28 is attached to the canopy 16 at one edge, and is moveable between a closed position covering the screen 26 and an open position exposing the screen 26. The flap 28 may be retained in the closed position in any convenient means, such as by a zipper or a Velcro® type fastening material.
The canopy 16 may also include one or more wind gust vents 30, preferably adjacent the center of the canopy 16, as best seen in Figure 3. A cap or cover 32 is provided over the vents 30 to prevent rain from passing therethrough. One or more storage pockets 34 may be provided in the shelter 10. For example, as seen in Figures 1 and 3, pockets 34 are provided in one or both of the wings 22 for storing small personal items. The pockets 34 may include a zipper or a Velcro® type closure.
The center post 14 may be formed of telescoping sections 36, 38. The lower section 38 may be extended and retracted relative to the upper section 36, with a conventional twist block action to maintain the selected positions of the sections 36, 38. Alternatively, a thumb screw 39 may be provided on the upper section 36 to maintain the lower section 38 in a selected position. Preferably, the upper section 36 has a length approximately equal to the radius of the canopy 16, so that when the umbrella 12 is folded down, the perimeter edge of the canopy 16 is adjacent the lower end of the post section 36, with the lower post section 38 being fully retracted within the upper section 36. In use, the shelter 10 may be opened and set upon the ground, such that the lower end of the post 14 and the canopy 16 engage the ground, as shown in Figures 1-4. The wings 22 may be extended and staked to the ground. In this opened position, two or more people can comfortably sit beneath the canopy 16 for protection from the sun, rain, or other weather elements.
Alternatively, the shelter 10 can be stood upright, as shown in Figures 5 and 6, with the lower end of the post 14 engaging the ground, and a plurality of strings 40 attached to the canopy 16 and/or wings 22 and staked to the ground so as to maintain the shelter in an upright position. The lower end of the lower telescoping section 38 may be pointed so as to be pushed into the ground to further stabilize the upright shelter 10.
The shelter 10 can be folded down when not in use, and can be easily stored within a carrying bag or case (not shown) having handles for carrying the shelter 10. The bag can also hold the stakes and string for securing the shelter to the ground 10, when not in use.
The invention has been shown and described above with the preferred embodiments, and it is understood that many modifications, substitutions, and additions may be made which are within the intended spirit and scope of the invention. From the foregoing, it can be seen that the present invention accomplishes at least all of its stated objectives.
