Abstract: So that a drive (38, 50, 52) can be formed in the case of a standing parasol (2) having a mast (12) and a collapsible parasol canopy with canopy and support struts (4, 6), in which the canopy struts (4) and the support struts (6) are respectively connected to an upper or a lower articulation ring (8, 10), and in which the upper articulation ring (8) is connected to a telescopic tube (22) which is guided in the mast (12) and can be raised and lowered and the telescopic tube (22) for raising and lowering is connected to a circulating member (34), it is proposed that the circulating member (34) may be actuated by way of an upper deflection roller (36) and a drive gear (50) that is arranged on the mast (12), and that the upper deflection roller (36) is arranged on a deflection support by means of a deflection roller bearing (28), the deflection support being secured to the mast and projecting into the telescopic tube (22).

Abstract: In a large parasol with a textile fabric roof with adjustable canopy strut ends for the attachment of the canopy fabric, in order to avoid the attaching seams of the canopy fabric from being openly exposed to the UV radiation and to prevent the connection to the fabric roof from becoming displaced or twisted inadvertently either in the open state or in the closed and relaxed state of the parasol, welt bulges are attached to the parasol roof edge along the seams of the parasol roof parts, the extensions comprising welt grooves, the welt bulges engaging in the welt grooves of the extensions and the welt bulges being held at the outer end of the extensions by means of a screw.
