Abstract

A straight-pole sun umbrella hand-cranking structure includes a standing pole and a shell fixed on the standing pole, wherein the shell comprises a first outer shell and a second outer shell. The shell is integrally fixed with one side of the standing pole, and a gear is arranged within the first and the second outer shells. A cranking shaft passes through the gear and is connected to an anti-slip mechanism, and a cranking handle is externally connected to the cranking shaft. The anti-slip mechanism includes a torsion spring, wherein the torsion spring is sleeved on the end portion of the cranking shaft. The torsion spring is arranged at the tail end of the cranking shaft such that the anti-slipping performance is improved by the elastic force of the spring. As the aforesaid structure is protected against abrasion, its functional life is significantly prolonged.

Claims (7)

1. A straight-pole sun umbrella hand-cranking structure, comprising:

a standing pole ( 1 ), and

a shell fixed on the standing pole 1 , wherein the shell comprises:

an outer shell A( 4 a ), and

an outer shell B( 4 b ) which is in a snap-fit with the outer shell A( 4 a ), wherein the shell is integrally fixed with one side of the standing pole ( 1 ), and a gear ( 5 ) is arranged within the outer shell A( 4 a ) and the outer shell B( 4 b ), wherein a cranking shaft ( 6 ) passes through the gear ( 5 ) and is connected to an anti-slip mechanism, and a cranking handle ( 14 ) is externally connected to the cranking shaft ( 6 ), wherein the anti-slip mechanism is arranged in an inner cavity of the outer shell A( 4 a ), wherein the anti-slip mechanism comprises:

a torsion spring ( 10 ), wherein the torsion spring ( 10 ) is sleeved on the end portion of the cranking shaft ( 6 ), and the outer surface of the torsion spring ( 10 ) is in contact with the inner cavity of the outer shell A( 4 a ), wherein a telescopic rod ( 2 ) is arranged in the standing pole ( 1 ), an inner sliding sleeve is arranged at the bottom of the telescopic rod ( 2 ), and a rack ( 11 ) is fixedly arranged between one side of the telescopic rod ( 2 ) and the inner wall of the standing pole ( 1 ), wherein an opening ( 3 ) is formed in the standing pole ( 1 ) for receiving the gear ( 5 ), and the gear ( 5 ) is assembled into the opening 3 such that it is meshed with the rack ( 11 ), wherein a fixing block ( 13 ) is arranged at the end portion of the rack ( 11 ), and a gear support is arranged adjacent to the cranking shaft ( 6 ), wherein a copper sleeve ( 9 ) is arranged adjacent to the cranking shaft, and a pressing sleeve ( 8 ) is arranged inwardly and adjacent to the copper sleeve ( 9 ).

2. The straight-pole sun umbrella hand-cranking structure of claim 1 , wherein the gear support ( 7 ) and the torsion spring ( 10 ) abut against and interact with each other.
