One end of the sliding groove 12 has an opening, that is, one end of the sliding groove 12 is not closed. The number of the first sliding wheels 13 is two, and the two first sliding wheels 13 are disposed apart. In other embodiments, the number of the first sliding wheels 13 is other value, such as three or four, which is not limited by this invention.

The bottom of the sunshade base body 10 has two first protruding platforms 14, and the two first protruding platforms 14 are disposed apart. As shown in FIG. 3, the two first sliding wheels 13 and the two first protruding platforms 14 are distributed at four different positions at the bottom of the sunshade base body 10. When the removable sunshade base stands on the ground, both the two first sliding wheels 13 and the two first protruding platforms 14 contact a supporting plane such as the ground to support the removable sunshade base.

The bottom of the sunshade base body 10 has a clamping slot 15, and the clamping slot is located at one end of the sliding groove 12 and is communicated with the sliding groove 12. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the clamping slot 15 is located at one end of the sliding groove 12 having the opening, the clamping slot 15 is communicated with the sliding groove 12, and the clamping slot 15 is formed by further recessing from the inner wall of the sliding groove 12.

The bottom of the sunshade base body 10 has a second protruding platform 16, and the side wall of the second protruding platform 16 integrally extends from the inner wall of the clamping slot 15. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the second protruding platform 16 is adjacent to the clamping slot 15, and the side wall of one side of the second protruding platform 16 and the inner wall of the clamping slot 15 are integrally formed.
