This innovative multifunctional self-generating safety umbrella features the latest structural design and safety alert mode with the ability to harvest micro-energy and store it in a battery system. In addition to its traditional rain protection, this umbrella creatively integrates a Car-mounted reflective triangular warning sign, 360-degree warning glow stick, and flashlight, significantly enhancing visibility and safety in various conditions.

This innovative tri-fold umbrella features a unique water collection design. When the umbrella is closed, the canopy folds inward, trapping the accumulated water inside to prevent any spillage. This design ensures that, upon storage, the water is effectively collected in a specially designed reservoir, preventing moisture from getting on car seats, floor mats, or personal belongings. After use, the umbrella can be unfolded in a suitable location for drying.

The self-generating safety umbrella features proprietary dynamic energy conversion technology that transforms even the slightest vibrations into electrical energy when in use or stored in a vehicle. In emergencies, such as vehicle breakdowns or accidents, this stored energy can quickly turn the umbrella into an emergency tripod or glow stick, effectively mitigating safety risks associated with slow emergency responses.

Embracing a minimalist design concept, this umbrella embodies exceptional design aesthetics. Its integrated storage solution completely transforms the traditionally cluttered image of umbrellas. The advanced lighting module and exquisite IML (in-mold labeling) technology lend the product a premium artistic feel. Visually, it exudes a simple yet elegant beauty, while functionally achieving the perfect balance of convenience and practicality.
