ABSTRACT:
Visibility of a conventional umbrella is enhanced by including an illuminating device on the external side of the umbrella canopy and by incorporating a flashlight into the handle portion of the umbrella shaft. The flashlight is concealably pivotably mounted in a cavity in the lower end of the umbrella shaft. This allows the flashlight to be housed in the cavity when not needed, and pivoted out of the cavity so as to illuminate the user's path when needed. The illuminating device is controlled by a switch and a switching circuit in the handle region of the umbrella shaft. The illuminating device may be turned ON or OFF, or caused to blink ON and OFF automatically by means of the switch and switching circuit.
