<p>An automatic collapsible umbrella comprises an idle-popup resistant device (5) to avoid the telescopic stick (3) extending unexpectedly while folding the umbrella and hurting the person close by. Said idle-popup resistant device (5) consists essentially of a tow rope (51), a ratchet wheel (52), a spiral spring (54) and a pawl (55). The ratchet wheel (52) and the pawl (55) are engaged to form a ratchet, controlled by a locking head (45). The tow rope (51) passes through the telescopic stick (3) and an end thereof winds the ratchet wheel (52). By the installation of the ratchet and spiral spring (54), the telescopic stick (3) is allowed to move in unidirectional fashion and to be retracted gradually, improving the safety of the umbrella.</p> |
