Air Umbrella Kit UMK-45
New improved umbrella kit. A
larger plein air umbrella is available now. With a 45" diameter
umbrella, weighing about 2.5 pounds and consisting of three simple parts
with total folded length of 26" to carry in the luggage, this new
umbrella kit is perfect for artists on the go, for French easel, Soltek
and pochade with tripod easel setup. Unlike most plein air umbrellas,
the EASyL umbrella can be clamped to an artist's tripod to prevent
damage to the easel and its height is adjustable and can accommodate
even the tallest artist. It has a silver coating on the outside that
provides protection against the sun's harmful UV rays, and the black
interior helps to remove reflective or excessive light. |
This
is a new, innovative and revolutionary umbrella kit with a total
weight of 2.5 lbs. Like other EASyL products it sets
another new standard for quality plein air art equipment. The kit
consists of three parts:
|
|
1. Strong C clamp with universal joint.
2. A 52" telescopic tube.
3. Large 45" double canopy ventilated UV protection umbrella.
|
|
| Unlike
conventional umbrellas, the EASyL umbrella is clamped to the
tripod leg to prevent easel damage. The C clamp can attach to any
round tripod leg, or the square leg of a French easel. The V shape
rubber pads ensure stability even on the most windy day. (The
conventional umbrella clamp is made of flimsy plastic, originally
made for beach umbrella not for artist umbrella; and with a
gooseneck which is prone to break after several uses; this type of
umbrella clamped on the easel will wear out itself, or
even damages the easel ). The
all metal universal ball joint is another innovative design,
enabling the artist to adjust the umbrella to any desired position
effortlessly and conveniently.
To
set up the whole kit, the C clamp is attached to one of the tripod
leg, the telescopic tube is mounted to the support on the
universal joint, and the umbrella pole is inserted to the
telescopic tube. A bungee cord is attached to the umbrella and a
fix position on the setup. |
|
|
The
fully extended telescopic tube enables an umbrella height of up to
107" from the ground, good for even the tallest artist.
The adjusting of the umbrella
will be determined by the artist's height, the sunlight condition,
and the easel tripod height. Artists will soon find the most
suitable position for their own personal requirements.
The umbrella is made with a
silver outside coating for UV protection and a black,
anti-reflective interior. The silver coating reflects the
sunlight, significantly reducing heat, and the black interior
surface will remove reflective light, enabling the artist to
paint with uniform, natural lighting. The diameter of the
umbrella is 45 inches, perfectly covering the artist and
painting. ( Too big a diameter will draw a strong force from
the wind and can cause the easel setup flipped over under a
strong gust of wind ). There are eight ventilation openings
on the top of the umbrella designed to reduce wind drag. The
umbrella frame is made of fiberglass providing absolute strength
with minimum weight.
|
|
|
The
folded umbrella, along with the telescopic tube, is stored in the
supplied nylon carry bag. The carry bag has been designed to also
carry a pochade tripod. The outer pocket will store the C Clamp
and universal joint. The overall length when folded is only
26". |
|
|
The EASyL umbrella has a double
canopy vented system consists of an upper canopy on top of a frames
unit, and a lower canopy as umbrella main cover. It ensures a fix
and large ventilation gap between the upper and lower canopies.
This way the vented gaps remain open constantly |
|
|
The
umbrella pole is inserted into the extendable telescopic tube
without using a locking device. This is important as it ensures
that even in the event of a strong wind gust the umbrella will not
cause the easel to blow over. The umbrella is secured by a
supplied bungee cord attached to the quick snap lock on the
telescopic tube. This ensures easy umbrella retrieval without
danger to the easel.
|

The
picture on left shows the bungee cord is attached to the quick
snap lock on the telescopic tube. |
|
We
do not suggest using an umbrella in winds exceeding 20 mph.
