Abstract
In order to improve a free-standing parasol, particularly a large parasol, in which canopy rods of a canopy are supported through supporting struts on an accommodating collar () of a slider (), which, with the canopy open, can be latched to a parasol pole () through a releasable pawl () and a catch (), wherein the pawl () is arranged on a tilting lever (), it is proposed that the tilting lever () be surrounded by a housing () that comprises bearings () for the hinge pin (). The tilting lever () itself has an operating button (). The housing () comprises an aperture (), through which the the operating button is made accessible. The hinge pin () of the tilting lever () is oriented transversely to the longitudinal axis () of the parasol pole () and the hinge pin () is closer to the longitudinal axis () of the parasol pole () than the pawl ().
