Canopy with overhang

Abstract

A canopy includes a frame assembly having a perimeter frame portion, a central frame portion and multiple legs. The frame assembly also includes one or more overhang frame portions, each of which can include a main overhang frame member and a strut. Each overhang frame portion can extend diagonally from the associated corner of the frame assembly. The canopy also includes a cover, which can be a fabric or flexible material cover capable of collapsing along with the preferably collapsible frame assembly. The cover can include a central portion located substantially within an area defined by the perimeter frame portion and an overhang portion, which surrounds or circumscribes the central portion of the cover. The overhang frame portions can support an overhang portion of the cover, which extends outwardly from the perimeter frame portion. A support of the canopy can be configured to leave a logo imprint on the ground.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A collapsible canopy, comprising:
 a frame assembly comprising a perimeter frame portion and an overhang frame portion;   a cover secured to the frame assembly, the cover comprising a central portion and an overhang portion, wherein the overhang portion is located at least partially outside of the perimeter frame portion;   wherein the overhang frame portion is automatically moved between a collapsed position and a deployed position in response to movement of the perimeter frame portion between a collapsed position and a deployed position.   
     
     
         2 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 1 , wherein the cover is secured to the overhang frame portion in the collapsed position of the overhang frame portion. 
     
     
         3 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 2 , wherein the overhang frame portion comprises a main overhang member, and wherein the cover comprises a pocket which receives an end portion of the main overhang member. 
     
     
         4 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 3 , wherein the frame assembly further comprises a central frame portion, wherein the main overhang member is oriented at an angle that is substantially the same as an angle of the central portion of the cover that is supported by the central frame portion. 
     
     
         5 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 4 , wherein the overhang frame portion further comprises a strut extending between the main overhang member and one or more of the perimeter frame portion, the central frame portion and a leg of the frame assembly. 
     
     
         6 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 5 , further comprising a slider movable relative to the leg of the frame assembly and carrying portions of one or both of the perimeter frame portion and the central frame portion, wherein the strut is connected to the slider. 
     
     
         7 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 1 , wherein the cover further comprises portions that engage the overhang frame portions. 
     
     
         8 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 7 , further comprising a fastener that couples the portions of the cover and the overhang frame portions. 
     
     
         9 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 7 , wherein the portions comprise pockets that each receives a member of an associated one of the overhang frame portions. 
     
     
         10 . The collapsible canopy of  claim 9 , further comprising a fastener that couples the pocket and the overhang frame portions.
