Abstract:
An inexpensive rain water collecting device which is easy to manufacture. The rain water collecting device provides an effective device which is adaptable to various umbrella tip sizes and avoids any bacterial growth problems. The rain water collecting device includes at least a reservoir having a first open end and a second open end, the first open end has an opening with an inner perimeter which is substantially equal to an outer perimeter of the umbrella tip, and the second open end has an opening with a perimeter which is greater than the inner perimeter of the opening of the first open end; a ferrule formed about the opening of the first open end; and at least one flow barrier about the second open end of the reservoir. After using an umbrella in the rain, it is collapsed. The rain water on the cloth of the umbrella then drains into the reservoir of the rain water collecting device.
