ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a beach umbrella with lamps, particularly standing on the ground and useable at night for lighting to set forth gracious atmosphere as well.
Conventional beach umbrellas are widely used not only at beaches but outdoor leisure coffee or refreshment stands for shading people from hot sunshine during the daytime so as to permit them rest comfortably.
Conventional beach umbrellas generally have a shank, a plurality of spreaders fitted on the shank and spread outward radially, and a plurality of ribs combined with the spreaders for supporting a canopy sewn on the ribs. Then conventional beach umbrellas are spread for hiding people sitting under the umbrella from hot sunlight during daytime, but always collapsed during the night lest they should hide lamplight or place temporarily lamps in the umbrellas to supply proper illumination.
But conventional beach umbrellas have to be lighted with extra lamps during the night, not convenient to use, as they have to be collapsed by manual work and cannot be taken away as they are mostly fixed on the ground. Besides, should there be any dirt on the umbrellas, the dirt may fall down on the ground to litter an outdoor resting area in case of the umbrella collapsed. So some businessmen hang small lamps on the spreaders of a conventional beach umbrella for lighting, but it is not so suitable to decorate an outdoor resting area for taking refreshments or coffee.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The objective of the invention is to offer a beach umbrella with lamps fixed under a lower side of each spreader and each rib, which have respectively a C-shaped insert groove for lamps to fit therein. Then the lamps are simple to combine with the spreaders and the ribs of a beach umbrella, not spoil the whole beautifulness of the beach umbrella, but producing gracious atmosphere during night in an outdoor resting area.
