Bahama• Jumbrell a – A World apart

Ultra-sized yet none the less foldable

BAHAMA® fabric structures offer considerably
more than just dependable sheltering from
sun, rain, or just chill weather: Worldwide, they
are unrivalled in their architectural design and
their aesthetic visual appearance.
BAHAMA® fabric structures are renowned
for setting architectural accents in creating
outdoor islands of ease and comfort.
In particular it’s the variety of different-shape
& -size models from the self-reliant
BAHAMA® JUMBRELLA production line
that is considered worldwide as the most
finished and exacting outdoor sheltering
culture by market insiders. What are the
reasons? – The quite simple answer is:

Ever since, BAHAMA® JUMBRELLA

structures have been the most solid, most
elegant, and the most longlived ultra-sized
”anti-wind” parasols that one can buy for
money. They keep being ”Made in Germany”,
now as ever.


from any thing el se in its Field.


A s early as in the sixties of the past century,
BAHAMA® designers gave proof of the justi-
fication of their thesis whereas large dimensi-
ons, modular design, operational functio-nali-
ty, structural stability, and an elegant visual
appearance would not necessarily have to pre-
clude one another .

BAHAMA® JUMBRELLA is still holding
the image of the pioneer structure as well
as being the architectural quality leader
worldwide:

1965: The 1st predecessor generation

1973: The 2nd predecessor generation
1976: 1st preproduction models of the
JUMBRELLA concept
1980: Start line production of the
1st JUMBRELLA generation
1991: Built-in LIGHT option
1994: 2nd JUMBRELLA generation
1997: 3rd JUMBRELLA generation
1999: Built-in IR(C) HEATER option
2001: WINDSCREEN option
2002: Built-in SOUND (speaker) option
2006: Built-in state-of-the-art
IR(A) HEATER option

In the beginning, there wasn’t but the vision
of an ultra-sized yet ready-to-erect foldable
fabric structure that was to become perfect
in every respect. Its aesthetic architecture, its
modular producibility, and its resulting value-
for-the-money price level had been in the lime-
light. Eventually, the evolutionary realization
of that very vision ended up with the variety
of models, sizes, editions, and options offered
from the BAHAMA® JUMBRELLA line
nowadays.

9
With a choice of some 30 different plain
colour shades for the fabric, with the membrane
editions »contemporary« (architectural style)
or »traditional« (with surround valance) to
select from, additionally considering a choice
of 3 basicly different footing systems/devices,
the 12 different-shape & -size basic models of
the JUMBRELLA line sum up to a total of no less
than 2,160 potential ordering & production
versions. If in addition to this the choosable
variety of optional equipment such as
BAHAMA® LIGHT, and/or BAHAMA®
HEATER, and/or BAHAMA® SOUND, and/or
BAHAMA® PRINT is taken into account, the
selection of theoretically choosable, however,
none the less practicable JUMBRELLA unit
variations gets up to some 5,000.

10
11
12
Since mid of the nineties, all JUMBRELLA
structures are being factory-equipped with
the TÜV-certified driveless »BAHAMA®
Servo- Kinematics«, a servo-assisted, mainte-
nance-free, fail-safe (manual) operating system
to unfold & tension the fabric structure. This
operating system is based on the manufac-
turer’s international patents that have been
registered in over 30 European and overseas
countries including e.g. the US, Canada, and
Japan. Nobody once having experienced that
unfolding & refolding mechanism will ever
interest himself in any other system again.

5 Picture showing the structure in its readily
unfolded & tensioned configuration with the latches
properly locked except that the master key [right side]
must be pulled off yet to prevent the parasol from
being handled by unauthorized hands.
6 View of the canopy/membrane ”corner” design:
Each of the radially running sectional seams of the
membrane is caught aligned with its structural arm 3 6
and hence cannot shift laterally. Contrary to this it is
free to shift closely guided (on the upside of the arm)
in longitudinal i.e. radial direction for being preten-
sioned during putting the membrane on.
7 All supports are hinged to the arms indirectly:
The double-shear receiving bearing is formed by the
U-shaped subrail that reinforces the carrying arm
where required.
8 Reinforced circular ventilation opening in
zenith of the fabric membrane. It is widely overlapped
by the vertically spaced solid conical top cover which
prevents rain from penetrating.
9 One of the BAHAMA® Portable Universal 7
(heavy-weight) Foot units, here in its packed on-pallet
shipping condition. In its unpacked off-pallet
condition, the whole unit is liftable & dislocatable by
fork-lift or hydraulic handcart. This Universal Foot
is based on a heavy-duty steel frame cassette [finish is
hot-dip & additionally powder-coating] that is welded
resistant to bending. It is factory-completed by
sculptured (non-standard) decorative concrete slab
inserts, and it has each one firmly built-in heavy-duty
lifting spindle in the four corners of the frame 8
cassette. The lifting spindles allow the erector to level
the foot as a whole and, in one, plumb the telescopic
column of the JUMBRELLA as latter is indispensable
to ensure that the parasol stands absolutely vertical.
Besides, the spindles serve the purpose of lifting the
whole foot up to an underclearance that allows the
forks of a lift or handcart to get underneath for lifting
the foot off its shipping pallet, or for just dislocating
it on the site ground.

front [with cylinder lock engaged, masterkey still on]
blocks the large solid-metal disc so that the foot
cannot be taken to pieces. Furthermore, it prevents
the parasol from being removed from its foot by unau-
thorized hands.

heavy-duty aluminium ”traffic cover” prevents the
sleeve component from being penetrated by fresh
10 concrete during and/or surface water after com-
pletion of concreting works. The yellow bottom cap
must stay put on as the sleeve component is cast in
flush with finished ground level.
12 Underground receiving sleeve component as in
picture 11, however, with its heavy-wheel load ”traffic
cover” removed only for imminent installation of the
JUMBRELLA. As the black rubber ring gets under
calculated pressure by either the tightened traffic
cover or the pressure ring, it prevents surface water
from penetrating the receiving sleeve. Contrary to the
underground sleeve component which is usually
supplied ahead, the white above-ground components
of the sleeve set come factory-prefixed at bottom end
of the parasol’s telescopic column.

JUMBRELLA model selected) suitable for being
bolted onto existing solid concrete ground by using
HILTI heavy-load bolts, or onto thick timber planks
by using heavy-duty coach bolts (e.g. DIN 603).
Footing devices are made of massive steel welded,
hot-dipped, and additionally powder-coated and
baked at >200° C in white (RAL 9016).
15 As characteristic as unparalleled worldwide is the
undetachable stainless-steel BAHAMA® brand plate
with the unmistakable serial production number
”SNR” durably engraved. Beside the current serial
production number which is not only compellingly
demanded by underwriters and leasing or, generally,
financing corporations, the SNR encompasses quite
a lot of factory-encoded data and parameters such
as the historical ordering, production and shipping
12 date, the orderer’s identity, shape & size of the
JUMBRELLA, and so forth. A factory-new replace-
ment membrane, for instance, can be verified by the
manufacturer only after he has been advised by the
client of the SNR of the parasol which the new fabric
part is earmarked for definitely.

Option 1: Bahama® »Print« – Promotional Jumbrella Structur

Promotional ultra-sized parasols, particularly heavy

weather-resistant JUMBRELLA models are made-to-
order custom structures inasmuch as the sectional cuts
of their (exchangeable) fabric membranes have to be
printed to the orderer’s digitally vectorized copy
material during the production process.
The BAHAMA® manufacturer’s printing capacities
encompass several basicly different fabric printing
methods. The answer to the question which one of
these will be applicable technically and, moreover, the
best cost-effective one is primarily depending on the
number of equal-shape & -size membranes inquired or
ordered to be printed to an equal branding pattern in
terms of image size, positioning, graphics, colour
separations, etc.
Whereas, for instance, the ”through-printing” method
[visual effect is transparencylike] requires a minimum
quantity of 100 to 200 fabric membranes (relative to the
required size & edition of the membrane to be
branded), the factory’s exacting multi-colour digital
ink-jetting system, even though – for reasons of the
machine industry’s current state of the art – limited to
print on plain white fabric ground only, is suitable to
print just one single membrane, or quantities from
2 up to 10 or 20 numbers. Unilateral screenprinting,
a third, more conventional printing method, can be
applied on any unicoloured fabric ground no matter
which shade but is costwise only reasonable with a
minimum production number of some 20 membranes
and beyond.

The optional, TÜV-certified BAHAMA® LIGHT 2

equipment requires permanent installation of the
JUMBRELLA in the »Universal In-Ground Sleeve« type
# 0451/E (# 1451/E). The TÜV-approved & certified,
factory built-in LIGHT is a non-retrofit equipment.
Consequently, it must be ordered together with the
JUMBRELLA structure to be equipped with. The TÜV
certification is subject to the condition that the docu-
mented LIGHT system is executed by using only certified
original components, and is installed and operated in
strict adherence to the respective technical specifications
recorded, approved & certified by the German TÜV
department concerned.

The preparatory frame-associated modification part
(or stage) ”I” of the entirety of the SOUND equipment
is a non-retrofit item. Regardless of which speaker
edition may be selected, it encompasses the mecha-
nical & electromechanical modification of the
in-ground component of the footing device to be cast
in on site, the metal-clad wirings inside the telescopic
column, the manufacture, wiring & installation of
the special centre console with its totally 4 selective
20
receptacles (sound outlets), and the mechanical
modification of 4 of the stretchers. On the one hand,
this factory-completed stage ”I” scope of modifica-
tions & appliances allows the orderer/operator to
postpone his eventual selection of the final stage ”II”
speaker edition. On the other hand, it leaves it up to
the operator in which out of the 4 selective firm cano-
py sectors he wants the speaker unit to be connected.
The structurally integrated feed wiring up to the
4 receptacles is connectible from inside the under-
ground distributor terminal where the operator’s
sound supply line (e.g. from amplifier) must be laid
up to for being accessible.

Option 5: B ahama ® »TVR C onnecting G utter « – T o
achieve larger , coherent R ain S helter C omplexes .

The optional equipment »TVR« (abbreviation of the

factory’s German designation of its system) allows to inter-
connect two [or more] square or rectangular-shape
JUMBRELLA units erected adjacent to each other by
means of a suitable textile drain-off gutter element.
Hence several same-size square or rectangular-shape
JUMBRELLAs can be arranged in row configuration.
However, the practical applicability of the connecting
fabric gutter element requires that folding frames of
the structures come premodified from the factory
(frame modification is a non-retrofit detail).
A row configuration of same-shape and -size
JUMBRELLA structures, particularly of those that
are to be footed and installed permanent, stipulates
beforehand that the ground slope along the common
centre axis in row direction must not exceed 0.5
percent (0.5 cm on 1 metre). In the event the given
on-site slope does exceed the said maximum rate, tops
of the in-ground footing components to be cast in
must uniformly be set either level or to a fictitious
0.5-percent slope even though both alternatives
would be contrary to the ”flush-with-finished-ground-
level” stipulation in the factory’s foundation drawings
coming with the in-ground components. However,
both of these ”way-out” solutions might be allowable
and practicable only on privately owned ground, not
on public like urban or municipal ground.

Membrane Editions & Colour Shades . Design . Materials
Surface Finish . Shapes, Sizes & Data of the Basic Models.
”Contemporary” (basic) membrane edition # 60: Without valance, slightly curved roof edges ending sharply.
”Traditional” (optional) membrane edition # 90: With valance, its straight-lined bottom edges trimmed with binding.
The JUMBRELLAs’ unique design
is based on a central telescopic column system in
which all inner and outer, vertically moving elements
are quad-guided each in self-lubricating slider bearings
(anti-torsion design goal). The static major column has
an exterior diameter of 80 mm. All artic-ulated
structural members such as the major carrier arms, the
stretchers, and reversers are hinged in double-shear
bearings. The internationally patented servo-assisted
kinematics of the JUMBRELLA are based on the
principle of forced reverse motion of the (inner) crown
pole versus the (outer) carriage, both relative to the
static major column. The beneficial effects of this are:
Less overall elevation of the parasol when in its folded
configuration, least possible transport package length
and, notwithstanding, sufficient vertical obstacle
clearance being maintained during transition of the
structure. Moreover, the operator of a JUMBRELLA
benefits from another major effect of the ”servo-assist-
ed” kinematics: No matter which geometric inter-
mediate configuration the
22
parasol is in during transition, its structural canopy’s
common mass centre of gravity remains always on a
just slightly varying absolute level above ground.
The indispensable high overall tension stiffening the
structural canopy against wind forces is generated by
successively operated heavy-duty tensioning latches
on the carriage. Both latches are laid out lockable by
means of a masterkey so to prevent the structure from
being operated by unauthorized hands.
High-performance materials.
The structural members of the JUMBRELLA are
extruded (seamless) aluminium profiles and
CNC-machined from solid aluminium components.
Major functional as well as assembly elements are
made of stainless steel. All guider bearings as well as
the centre console are CNC-machined from special
molybdenic resins.
Standard surface finish.
Prior to final frame assembly, all aluminium members
of the structure are PES powder-coated & baked at
>200° C. Finish is resistant to seawater and salt-laden
humid air. Standard colour shade is white (RAL 9016).
Other RAL colour shades are optional.
Standard fabric material
of the modulat-type exchangeable membrane is
betex® 89 , an acrylate-coated, dimensionally stable
high-tenacity polyester fabric that is impermeable
to rainwater yet permeable to air. Its weight to DIN
53854 is >195 g/m2. Its resistance to water pressure
to DIN 53886: >450 hPa [450 mm]. Its fastness to sun
light : Grade 6-8 – relative to the very colour shade
[per DIN 54071: Grade 1 = worst, grade 8 = best
possible anti-fading result].
Fabric colour shades
are selective from the separate »BAHAMA® Fabric
Sample & Colour Shade Selector« offering a
choice of some 30 distinctive plain colour shades to
select from for the desired fabric membrane of the
JUMBRELLA.

Max. wind/OPEN configuration (8 Beauf.) 74 km/h* Max. wind/OPEN configuration (7 Beauf.) 60 km/h*

ted max. wind or peak gust load in km/h is to pro-
vide the responsible user/operator of the structure with
an estimation of how to interprete continually repeated
public wind forecasts as these use to be broadcast on
TV and radio during no less than the 24 to 48 hrs that
precede the upcoming significant wind or storm situa-
tion. If any wind or peak gust velocity forecast (reading
e.g.: ”... gusting up to ..... km/h”) exceeds 90 percent
of the model-related utmost km/h limit herein above,
the responsible user/operator is obligated to preven-
tively refold & harness-secure the JUMBRELLA(s)
timely (usually a couple of hours) in advance of the
forecast time at which the significant wind is estimat-
ed to come up or to prevail, respectively. Under no
circumstances shall the responsible user/operator
of the structure(s) enter into the risk of waiting until
the forecast significant wind commences to come up
actually, since this is definitely too late to avoid severe
damages to or even destruction of the umbrella(s).
– Apart from this precautionary information, the
manufacturer strongly recommends to the responsi-
ble user/operator to read and to observe in particular
chapter 5 – ”Miscellaneous, Manufacturer’s General
Recommendations, etc.” – on page 5 of the printed
»General Instructions on Unpacking, Pre- & Posterec-
tion Handling, and on the Operation of the BaHaMa®
JUMBRELLA«. A copy of these Instructions comes
with every JUMBRELLA cylinder package. It is in
a transparent pocket attached to the opening head
cover of the transport package.
