The front portion of each umbrella rib is divided into parallel, but different lengthed first and second rib sections on which two mutually overlapped umbrella covers are laid on forming a fissure therebetween so as to release the wind force. Moreover, several spring elements are intercalated in the fissure between the two umbrella covers so as to protect the first rib sections form over flexing or even breaking due to strong wind force.
