Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1700536A1] An umbrella (10) is provided that includes a support pole (14), at least a portion of which extends upwardly in use, a suspending pole (31), a canopy (18), and a mechanism for rotating the suspending pole (31) about its longitudinal axis (32). The suspending pole (31) is mounted transversely to the support pole (14) and has first and second ends and a longitudinal axis (32). The canopy (18) is suspended in use from the second end (38) of the suspending pole (31). The mechanism includes a plurality of gear teeth coupled with the suspending pole (31) to cause the suspending pole (31) to rotate in either direction about said axis (32) upon movement of the gear teeth and to thereby cause the canopy (18) to tilt in either direction about said axis (32).
