Windproof Sunshade
Abstract
A kind of windproof sunshade comprising an umbrella fabric, an umbrella frame and a stem for supporting said umbrella frame, said umbrella fabric covering said umbrella frame, said umbrella frame comprising multiple long umbrella ribs, multiple short umbrella ribs and a central stick, said long umbrella ribs and said short umbrella ribs being capable of being folded and unfolded, said long umbrella ribs being provided with soft ribs which can be bended and detached from the front ends of said long umbrella ribs in case of wind and restore the original state when the wind stops, said umbrella fabric at least comprising a bottom edge engaged with the long umbrella ribs and a windproof top engaged with said soft ribs. Compared with existing technologies, this utility model is advantageous in that: the soft ribs will bend upwards and be blown open along with the windproof top to deflect the wind in strong wind and the windproof top will rebound automatically under the stress of the soft ribs to restore the original state when the wind stops. Thus, the damage to the umbrella frame and other parts including the long umbrella ribs can be reduced and the wind resistance of the sunshade can be improved.
