Shade, more particularly an umbrella and/or sunshade

A collapsible shade, comprising a bar having a far end, a canvas fixed to the far end of the bar, arms for stretching the canvas and a bush which can be moved over the bar for opening and closing the canvas by means of the arms, wherein the arms are each fixed to the canvas at a far end thereof and are each hinge-mounted to the bush at their other end, and wherein the canvas is provided with cut-outs on an edge between two adjacent arms and wherein the cut-outs ensure that forces which are transmitted to the arms by the canvas converge at a single point located at the center point of the bush, and including means to provide an initial rotational movement to the arms when opening the shade and wherein the said means comprise at least one spring which is disposed between a respective arm and the bush.
