         8 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 6 , wherein said two releasing buttons are slidably mounted at said sidewalls of said locker slot respectively at a position that said pushing ends of said releasing buttons are align with said hooking ends of said resilient arms respectively, such that when said pressing ends of said releasing buttons are pressed, said resilient arms are driven to move at said resilient gaps to disengage with said locking protrusions respectively. 
     
     
         9 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 7 , wherein said two releasing buttons are slidably mounted at said sidewalls of said locker slot respectively at a position that said pushing ends of said releasing buttons are align with said hooking ends of said resilient arms respectively, such that when said pressing ends of said releasing buttons are pressed, said resilient arms are driven to move at said resilient gaps to disengage with said locking protrusions respectively. 
     
     
         10 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 7 , wherein said locking arrangement further comprises two resilient elements supported within said resilient gaps respectively, wherein each of said resilient elements has two ends biasing against said respective resilient arm and said sidewall of said locking tongue for applying an urging force against said resilient arm. 
     
     
         11 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 9 , wherein said locking arrangement further comprises two resilient elements supported within said resilient gaps respectively, wherein each of said resilient elements has two ends biasing against said respective resilient arm and said sidewall of said locking tongue for applying an urging force against said resilient arm. 
     
     
         12 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 6 , wherein said pushing ends of said two releasing buttons are sidewardly extended from said resilient arms respectively such that when said pressing ends of said releasing buttons are pressed, said resilient arms are driven to move at said resilient gaps to disengage with said locking protrusions respectively.
