Abstract
A flashing umbrella allowed to emit flashing light on rainy, dark day has a tubular handle connected to a hollow rod which is further connected to an upper tube. An upper collar is engaged at the upper periphery of the rod having a plurality of ribs pivotally extending therefrom. A plurality of LEDs each is installed at the end of a corresponding rib. The tubular handle has a circuit board and a battery installed therein for providing electrical pulses from the circuit board. A button switch is installed on the tubular handle for controlling the ON/OFF of the circuit board. A positive electrical line and a negative electrical line extend from the circuit board and elongate upward inside the rod and each having a plurality of branches each extending therefrom to electrically connect a corresponding LED, thereby transmitting the electrical pulses from the circuit board to the LEDs and enable the latter to flash.
