Abstract

An outdoor umbrella for electrical appliances includes a supporting frame, an awning frame, and an electro-control panel. The awning frame includes a functional umbrella hub suspendedly supported by the supporting frame for supporting the electrical appliances in position, a plurality of awning frames radially and outwardly extended from the functional umbrella hub, and an awning supported by the awning arms to define a shading area under the awning. The electro-control panel includes a control circuitry and a control device. The control circuitry has an input terminal adapted for electrically connecting to a power source, and a plurality of control terminals for selectively connecting to the electrical appliances respectively. The control device is electrically connected to the control circuitry for selectively controlling each of the electrical appliances in an on-and-off manner.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is:

 an umbrella frame comprising a supporting frame and an awing frame, wherein said awning frame comprises a functional umbrella hub suspendedly supported by said supporting frame, a plurality of awning frames radially and outwardly extended from said functional umbrella hub, and an awning supported by said awning arms to define a shading area under said awning, wherein said functional umbrella hub comprises a hub body and a functional hub coupled with said hub body;   one of more electrical appliances being supported by said functional umbrella hub; and   an electro-control panel which is supported by said awning frame within said shading area for selectively controlling each of said electrical appliances and coupled with said hub body.   
     
     
         2 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said electro-control panel is built-in with said functional hub of said functional umbrella hub of said awning frame to electrically link with said electrical appliances for minimizing an electrical connection between said electro-control panel and said electrical appliances. 
     
     
         3 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 2 , further comprising a battery electrically linked to said electrical appliances via a connecting wire, wherein said hub body is pivotally coupled with said awning arms and said functional hub is downwardly extended from said hub body to house at least one of said electrical appliances in said functional hub, and said connecting wire is extended from said battery to electrically link to said electro-control panel. 
     
     
         4 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said electro-control panel is built-in with said functional hub to electrically link with said electrical appliances. 
     
     
         5 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 4 , wherein said functional hub is detachably coupled with said hub body. 
     
     
         6 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 1 , wherein said electro-control panel comprises a control circuitry having an input terminal adapted for electrically connecting to a power and a plurality of control terminals selectively connecting to said electrical appliances respectively, and a control device electrically connecting to said control circuitry to selectively control said electrical appliances. 
     
     
         7 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 2 , wherein said electro-control panel comprises a control circuitry having an input terminal adapted for electrically connecting to a power and a plurality of control terminals selectively connecting to said electrical appliances respectively, and a control device electrically connecting to said control circuitry to selectively control said electrical appliances. 
     
     
         8 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 3 , wherein said electro-control panel comprises a control circuitry having an input terminal adapted for electrically connecting to a power and a plurality of control terminals selectively connecting to said electrical appliances respectively, and a control device electrically connecting to said control circuitry to selectively control said electrical appliances. 
     
     
         9 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 4 , wherein said electro-control panel comprises a control circuitry having an input terminal adapted for electrically connecting to a power and a plurality of control terminals selectively connecting to said electrical appliances respectively, and a control device electrically connecting to said control circuitry to selectively control said electrical appliances. 
     
     
         10 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 5 , wherein said electro-control panel comprises a control circuitry having an input terminal adapted for electrically connecting to a power and a plurality of control terminals selectively connecting to said electrical appliances respectively, and a control device electrically connecting to said control circuitry to selectively control said electrical appliances. 
     
     
         11 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 6 , wherein said electro-control panel further comprises a panel housing built-in with said functional umbrella hub that said panel housing is provided at a peripheral wall of said functional umbrella hub to protectively receive said control circuitry in said panel housing. 
     
     
         12 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 7 , wherein said electro-control panel further comprises a panel housing built-in with said functional umbrella hub that said panel housing is provided at a peripheral wall of said functional umbrella hub to protectively receive said control circuitry in said panel housing. 
     
     
         13 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 8 , wherein said electro-control panel further comprises a panel housing built-in with said functional umbrella hub that said panel housing is provided at a peripheral wall of said functional umbrella hub to protectively receive said control circuitry in said panel housing. 
     
     
         14 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 9 , wherein said electro-control panel further comprises a panel housing built-in with said functional umbrella hub that said panel housing is provided at a peripheral wall of said functional umbrella hub to protectively receive said control circuitry in said panel housing. 
     
     
         15 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 10 , wherein said electro-control panel further comprises a panel housing built-in with said functional umbrella hub that said panel housing is provided at a peripheral wall of said functional umbrella hub to protectively receive said control circuitry in said panel housing. 
     
     
         16 . The outdoor umbrella, as recited in  claim 11 , wherein said electro-control panel further comprises a plurality of control switches which are provided on said panel housing and are electrically connected to said control terminals to selectively control said corresponding electrical appliances.
