[0034] The auxiliary mechanism 41 includes a telescopic beam 412 and a push rod spring 411. The telescopic beam 412 is slidably mounted inside the slide groove provided on the inner wall of the horizontal beam 1. The side wall of the telescopic beam 412 is provided with an external pull ring 416. The inner wall of the circular groove provided on the side wall of the telescopic beam 412 is slidably mounted with a locking pin 418. The other end of the locking pin 418 is fixedly mounted with a locking pin spring 414. The other end of the locking pin spring 414 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the horizontal beam 1. The inner wall of the locking pin 418 contacts the horizontal connecting rod 411. 7. The other end of the horizontal connecting rod 417 is in contact with a push rod 419, and one end of the push rod 419 is installed with a push block 415. The inner wall of the step hole on the side wall of the push block 415 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole on the side wall of the horizontal beam 1 through the push rod spring 411. The push block 415 is in contact with the side wall of the horizontal beam 1, and an axis column 4110 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of one end of the telescopic beam 412. A hook 413 is slidably installed on the inner wall of the push block 415, and one end of the hook 413 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the horizontal beam 1.

[0035] In this embodiment, the side wall of the locking pin 418 is vertically slidably connected to the slide groove of the inner wall of the horizontal beam 1, the side wall of the cross-link 417 is horizontally slidably connected to the slide groove of the inner wall of the horizontal beam 1, and the side wall of the push rod 419 is vertically slidably connected to the slide groove of the inner wall of the horizontal beam 1.

[0036] Furthermore, the outer pull ring 416 is located at the left and right sides of the push block 415, and the outer pull ring 416 is fixedly connected to the raised part of the horizontal beam 1 through a rubber band.

[0037] Embodiment 2: Based on Embodiment 1, a preferred embodiment of a foldable lantern structure that can be extended laterally provided by the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 8 As shown: the folding mechanism 42 includes an inner pull ring 424 and a hinge block 421, one end of the inner pull ring 424 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the telescopic beam 412, one end of the hinge block 421 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the shaft column 4110, the other end of the hinge block 421 is fixedly installed with a picture frame 423, the other side of the picture frame 423 is installed with a column shaft 428 through the hinge block 421, both ends of the column shaft 428 are installed with shaft column end clamps 422, the side wall of the shaft column end clamp 422 is fixedly installed with a shaping piece fixing groove 427, the side wall of the shaping piece fixing groove 427 is installed with a sleeve 426, and the side wall of the telescopic beam 412 is provided with a pull rope hole 425.

[0038] In this embodiment, there are six picture frames 423 , and the six picture frames 423 are equal in shape and size. The inner wall of the inner pull ring 424 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the column 2 through a rubber band.

[0039] In the specific implementation process, when the operator needs to fold the device, the shaft column 4110 can be directly pulled to the two sides, and the shaft column 4110 drives the telescopic beam 412 to slide to the two sides on the inner wall of the horizontal beam 1. When the telescopic beam 412 moves to the outermost position, the locking pin 418 will enter the inner wall of the circular groove on the side wall of the telescopic beam 412 under the action of the locking pin spring 414, so as to limit the position of the telescopic beam 412, so that the lantern can be compressed into a plane as a whole (shown in the attached manual). Figure 6The shape in the figure), when the lantern needs to be restored, the operator can press down the position of the push block 415, and the push block 415 will slide on the surface of the hook 413, and the push block 415 will drive the position of the push rod 419 to drop, and the inclined surface at the bottom of the push rod 419 will squeeze one end of the horizontal connecting rod 417. At this time, the horizontal connecting rod 417 will move to the positions on both sides, and the horizontal connecting rod 417 will squeeze the position of the locking pin 418, prompting the position of the locking pin 418 to move. At this time, the locking pin 418 will compress one end of the locking pin spring 414, prompting one end of the locking pin 418 to break away from the inner wall of the telescopic beam 412. When the top of the locking pin 418 does not limit the telescopic beam 412, since the outer pull ring 416 and the horizontal beam 1 are connected by a rubber band, the telescopic beam 412 will be prompted to move to the middle position under the tension of the rubber band, so that the lantern can be restored.
