ABSTRACT:
A hand-held umbrella with a mechanism for rotating the stem and dome of the umbrella relative to the handle without manual rotation of the handle or umbrella. The rotation is created by a battery operated motor forming a portion of the handle and adapted to receive the end of the stem opposite of the dome. The exterior surface of the dome may have a picture message imprinted thereon which has the appearance of animated movement when the dome is rotated. A speaker and mechanism for producing audible sound are also incorporated into the handle. In one embodiment, the music is contained on a sound synthesizer chip.
