ABSTRACT:
An umbrella is convertible between an expanded and contracted position to adjust the area of coverage thereof when the umbrella is in the opened condition. The umbrella is formed with a pair of sticks which extend from the handle thereof with the sticks being pivoted at the handle for movement between a spread position whereby the sticks may be placed in a generally V-shaped configuration, and a position wherein the sticks are brought together to be generally parallel with each other. Each stick includes a slider which may move relative to the stick in order to effect opening and closing of the canopy of the umbrella, which canopy is generally supported upon the ends of the sticks by ribs. With the sticks in a generally parallel position, a smaller area of coverage is provided by the umbrella. By spreading the sticks apart into the V-shaped configuration by pivotal motion thereof about the handle, the canopy of the umbrella is spread to cover a larger area and the umbrella may be used, for example, by two persons.
