For women all over the world, it has long been no secret that an umbrella is not only a handy tool adapted to shelter from the rain and at the same time keep clothes dry, and make-up and hair in order. It is also a stylish accessory that perfectly complements your individual image. Modern manufacturers never cease to amaze consumers with a wide range of different design solutions and designs.

You can surprise passers-by with a bright umbrella of an unusual style, for example, in the shape of a heart, a flower or a juicy fruit. The choice of dome ornamentation is also varied - from classic plain and colored to "bold" drawings in the form of smileys, geometric shapes, starry sky, etc. The "chameleon" models look quite original, changing their color and print when the dome canvas gets wet. And for romantics, designers even came up with paired umbrellas with two connected domes and double handles.

The variety of designs of this seemingly simple accessory never ceases to amaze. You can find models of umbrellas that fold into a handbag, clutch or even a bottle. But in this article we will pay attention to the functional construct.

As you know, umbrellas are mechanical and automatic. The classic version of the umbrella is a mechanical design with a solid stem (cane) and folding.Fans of this design note the high strength of the product, reliability. Folding mechanical umbrellas can have the design features of frames in five additions - this is 16-19 cm in length when folded.

Peculiarities

Particular attention should be paid to such a model as an automatic umbrella. Due to the mobility in use, these design features are gaining more and more recognition. They are simple and convenient to use, save space when storing and moving. Some models can even be freely placed in a jacket pocket or in the glove compartment of a car. Inclement weather will not surprise the owner of such an umbrella, because its compact size allows you to always keep it at hand.

To decide on the choice of a women's automatic umbrella, consider their features. So, there are two main categories of folding automatic umbrellas:

semi-automatic

The characteristic of such a transformation mechanism is that the handle is extended by pressing a button, then you need to press the slider located on the handle and, while holding it, pull it up to the base of the dome until it clicks. The umbrella is closed according to the same algorithm - pressing the button, as a result of which the dome is folded, then the rod is folded manually by pulling the same slider to the handle.

As you can see, such a model, unlike a mechanical one, has great functionality and can significantly save space in your purse. The umbrella will be a good compromise for thrifty, practical housewives who prefer a combination of strength and mobility. In addition, this option is relatively inexpensive.

Full automatic

Fully automated model that opens and closes with a button.Perhaps this is the favorite "icing on the cake" of modern manufacturers and designers. The automatic umbrella received its recognition due to its high mobility. If your hands are full, it can be easily opened with a single gesture. In addition, such products have a higher opening and closing speed, which makes them convenient in public transport. By quickly handling your umbrella, you save time and do not disturb others.

There is an opinion that automatic umbrellas have a significant drawback in strength. Modern manufacturers have made efforts to eliminate this error. Thanks to the hardening of parts and the careful choice of materials, such products now break no more often than mechanical umbrellas. They have significantly increased the coefficient of wear resistance, they seize less and transform without much effort and significant interference.

How to choose?

Since we are talking about strength and durability, we should mention one more important detail that must be considered when choosing an automatic umbrella. This is the frame of the "anti-wind" or "anti-storm" system. It is a special spring attached to the spokes in such a way that when a gust of wind, the spokes bend in the opposite direction without breaking. If a gust of wind "turned" your umbrella inside out, then there is no need to try to return the wet dome of the product to its original position with your hands. Simply press a button to close it and open it again.

In addition to the presence of springs, we advise you to pay attention to the fact that the frame of such a model is made of durable material of the best quality. Ideally, this is a steel rod and fiberglass spokes - a high-strength polymer composition that is particularly flexible and resistant to deformation.Thanks to this feature, your umbrella will serve you for many years, and most likely you will change it because you are tired of its design and there was a desire to purchase another model that is more suitable for a new coat or dress.

Another important characteristic when choosing an umbrella is the number of additions. The greater the number of folds, the smaller the length of the product when assembled, and therefore, the more it saves space in your purse.

It should be noted that with an increase in the additions, the umbrella has a greater number of internal, interconnected, parts. This increases the risk of possible damage to fragile parts of the structures, so these models of umbrellas should be handled with the utmost care.

For automatic umbrellas, the following values ​​\u200b\u200bof the addition cycles apply:

two additions

Pretty impressive in length umbrella, an average of 50 cm and above. This is a compromise solution between a cane umbrella and a folding one. Great for semi-automatic umbrellas. The design provides for two knees in the rod, and therefore, in the process of transformation, the length of the bearing part is doubled. This allows you to install longer spokes, thereby increasing the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe dome. Such umbrellas, as a rule, are highly durable and resistant to breakage.

The pluses include the cheapness of such a product, but this also implies a minus - they are rarely made from original fabrics and materials of the best quality, and therefore the chances of choosing a unique design are not so great.

Three additions

An umbrella of medium size 30-40 cm, one of the most common and popular (classic) forms due to the ratio of functionality and strength. It has three retractable sectors in the rod, respectively lengthening it three times.It also allows the installation of elongated spokes in order to increase the dome, and this model can achieve the largest size - 60 cm. Of course, in compactness it is significantly inferior to an umbrella in 4 additions, but it is not inferior in practicality and comfort.

Four additions

This is the most compact, trendy umbrella that has won the hearts of fashionistas who love comfort and convenience in everything. Most often, such a model is common in the design of a full automatic, making it extremely functional. The rod consists of four retractable fractions, proportionally increasing its length. Unlike the previous version, the size of the dome can reach a maximum of 53 cm, which can create some inconvenience, but is not so critical in general terms.

Due to the fact that in this version the number of small parts is increased in order not to lose strength, manufacturers are trying to make them from high-quality materials, increasing its cost, which means that the choice of fabric implies greater diversity, both in quality and in design. .

When choosing such a model, check the course of the moving parts, it should be free of squeaks and jams, the buttons should be pressed without additional effort, not fall through, not stick; frames must be intact - without cracks and deformations.

Of course, women's automatic umbrellas deservedly occupy a profitable niche in the accessory market. They are comfortable, practical and simple. A properly selected umbrella is a guarantee of its durability.
