Shade apparatus
The invention features a shade apparatus adapted to provide shade to an individual or individuals while they are outside and in need of shade from sunlight. Aspects of embodiments of the present invention contemplate a shade apparatus that is easily portable and easily adapted to the sun's changing positions, thereby providing the individual/user with shade from sunlight.
1. A shade apparatus comprising:
a tripod arrangement having three legs, wherein the legs are foldably connected to a tripod base, the legs comprising of a top leg and two bottom legs, wherein the tripod base further comprises at least one holder having a well for holding user items;
an attachment mechanism, attached to the top leg, the attachment mechanism comprising of a first sleeve, allowing positioning of the top leg therethrough, and a second sleeve;
a first pole, slidably positioned within the second sleeve of the attachment mechanism, wherein an end of the first pole extends away from the attachment mechanism and into a first adjustable junction;
a second pole, comprising first and second ends, wherein said first end of the second pole is one of: connected to the first adjustable junction or slidably positioned through the first adjustable junction, and wherein the second end of the second pole is slidably positioned through a second junction; and
a shade canvas structure, slidably positioned over said second pole, adjustably connected to the second adjustable junction and extending from the second adjustable junction, wherein said shade canvas structure comprises of a base having two canvas arm receptacles, wherein said shade canvas structure is held in place by placement of said second adjustable junction between said shade canvas structure base and second end of second pole.
2. The shade apparatus of claim 1 wherein at least one of the first or second junctions is multi directional, multi axial, multi angular, multi rotational, or capable of moving in multiple directions about different axes.
3. The shade apparatus of claim 1 further comprising of a hook extending downward from the tripod base.
4. The shade apparatus of claim 1 wherein each of the first and second junctions comprise one or a combination of: wherein each of the first and second junctions comprises one or a combination of: a collar lock, a lever cam lock, a flat cam lock, or a rotational angle piece which enables rotation of the junction.
