Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0841023A2] The parasol has a vertical mast with a slide to open/close the canopy. Cable-like bodies (11) are guided sliding on the slide (3). One end (12) of each body is fastened to the end sections of associated bars (8), while the other end (13) is fastened stationary between slide and upper mast end (9). The bodies are of such a length, that they are tensioned mainly horizontally when the parasol is open. The slide has a collar with a number of passage holes for the flexible bodies. These may be ropes or chains. The holes contain bearing elements to reduce the friction between bodies and collar.
