Patent number: 4622987Abstract: This invention provides a shade umbrella which is tiltable about a horizontal axis and which can be rotated about a vertical axis. A resiliently placed cam button protrudes through an opening adjacent each end of two annularly mated shaft portions supporting the umbrella. The button can be manually depressed to release the outer shaft, permitting removal of the umbrella or rotation for shaft control. A plurality of openings around the circumference of the outer shaft permits indexing of the shade control and the outer surface of the cam button is so shaped as to permit easy interconnection of the two shaft portions and secure locking thereof together.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 1985Date of Patent: November 18, 1986Assignee: Finkel Outdoor Products, Inc.Inventors: Stefan Redl, Edmund Killian

Patent number: 4386621Abstract: A wind-up mechanism for a tiltable umbrella is mounted on the umbrella pole for opening the umbrella and then tilting same in response to the winding of respective first and second portions of the same flexible cable. The wind-up mechanism comprises a rotatable wind-up shaft and a wind-up spool connected to the cable and rotatable in response to the rotation of the shaft. The spool comprises first and second axial sections of unequal diameters, with the first axial section being relatively larger for winding the first portion of the cable and the second axial section for winding the second portion of the cable, whereby the wind-up mechanism opens the umbrella at a relatively higher speed than during tilting.Type: GrantFiled: April 23, 1982Date of Patent: June 7, 1983Assignee: Finkel Outdoor Products, Inc.Inventor: Stefan Redl

Patent number: 4063836Abstract: A hollow tube constitutes a structural member having an opening in a wall thereof which surrounds a short hollow sleeve closely fitting within the tubular member, the sleeve having diametrically opposed openings one of which is of the size and shape of the opening in the tube wall. The margin of one of the openings in the sleeve is shouldered inwardly. The sleeve is so positioned within the tube that the openings are aligned, the shouldered opening of the sleeve being diametrically opposed to the aligned openings in the tube and sleeve. A hollow tubular bracing cross-member is provided of such dimension as to pass through, with minimum clearance, the aligned openings in the tube and sleeve, the free end of the cross member being received within the diametrically-located opening in the sleeve and resting upon the shoulder thereof. Means are provided to lock the bracing cross member removably within and to the tube and sleeve.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 1977Date of Patent: December 20, 1977Assignee: Finkel Outdoor Products, Inc.Inventor: Vincent Militano
