Abstract:
A modular umbrella includes a fixed hub device mounted on a top end of a post and a runner device slideably mounted to the post. The fixed hub device is detachably coupled with four, six, or eight rib seats for coupling with a corresponding number of ribs. A corresponding number of stretchers is detachably mounted between the ribs and the rib seats. Thus, the modular umbrella can be assembled to include four, six, or eight ribs and can be arranged to support a square or rectangular canopy.

Claim (Index 4):
The modular umbrella as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the upper coupling sleeve further includes a second end face spaced from the first end face along the longitudinal axis of the post, wherein the upper coupling sleeve further includes a plurality of second upper positioning grooves defined in the second end face, wherein a number of the plurality of second upper positioning grooves is equal to the number of the first upper positioning grooves, wherein each of the plurality of rib seats further includes a second engaging portion, the second engaging portion of each of the selected ones of the plurality of rib seats engages with a respective one of the plurality of second upper positioning grooves, wherein the lower coupling sleeve further includes a bottom end face spaced from the top end face along the longitudinal axis of the post, wherein the lower coupling sleeve further includes a plurality of second lower positioning grooves defined in the bottom end face and respectively aligned with the plurality of first lower positioning grooves, wherein a number of the plurality of second lower positioning grooves is equal to the number of the plurality of first lower positioning grooves, wherein each of the plurality of stretcher seats further includes a second positioning portion, wherein the second positioning portion of each of the selected ones of the plurality of stretcher seats engage with a respective one of the plurality of second lower positioning grooves.
