Abstract:
1. A cantilever parasol, having a mast on which an arm is guided axially retractably and extendably and wherein the arm is pivotable about an axis of the arm, the arm carrying a parasol at one end and being mounted at the other end rotatably in a bearing, a carrier element articulated to the bearing and connected in an articulated manner to the mast, there furthermore being on the bearing a locking device for locking the pivot position of the arm, wherein the locking device has a control rod, the control rod extending from the arm, the control rod being pivotable relative to the carrier element about a second axis extending transverse to the axis of the arm, the control rod being latchable to the carrier element to thereby secure the control rod relative to the carrier element and wherein, in the unlatched condition, the control rod is pivotable about the axis of the arm and the second axis and wherein the control rod is detachably rotationally coupled to the arm relative to the axis of the arm by a coupling device wherein at selectable angles of rotation about the second axis the control rod is rotatable relative to the arm about the axis of the arm.
