Abstract
An electric umbrella has a column, a first driving assembly, a slider, an umbrella frame, a second driving assembly, a power source and a control module. The first driving assembly is arranged on the column. The umbrella frame connects to the column and the slider, and the second driving assembly is arranged on the umbrella frame. A power source is charged by solar energy, a control module connects to the first driving assembly, the second driving assembly and the power source, respectively. When the electric umbrella needs to be folded or unfolded and the angle of the electric umbrella needs to be adjusted, a motor operates to drive a rope winding wheel to rotate, and the rope winding wheel rotates to adjust a traction rope, thereby enabling the folding or unfolding of the umbrella and adjustment of the angle of the umbrella frame.
