[0065] Combine the following Figure 1 to Figure 17d The technical solution provided by the present invention is described in more detail.

[0066] See also Figures 1 to 7b The embodiment of the present invention provides a baby carriage frame, comprising a frame body 1, a pedal assembly 2 and a locking mechanism 3. The frame body 1 is configured to have a folded state and an unfolded state. Figure 1 The pedal assembly 2 is rotatably mounted on the frame body 1. The locking mechanism 3 includes a locking mechanism 31 and an unlocking mechanism 32, see Figure 9a The locking mechanism 31 and the unlocking mechanism 32 are provided between the frame body 1 and the footrest assembly 2. The locking mechanism 31 is configured to put the footrest assembly 2 in a locked state relative to the frame body 1, and the unlocking mechanism 32 is configured to put the footrest assembly 2 in an unlocked state relative to the frame body 1.

[0067] See also Figure 8 In some embodiments, the baby stroller frame further includes a driving component 5, which is disposed between the frame body 1 and the pedal assembly 2, and the driving component 5 is configured to drive the pedal assembly 2 to be folded along with the frame body 1 when the pedal assembly 2 is in an unlocked state.

[0068] The frame body 1 may adopt an existing structure. In order to facilitate the description of the technical solutions of various embodiments, some specific implementations of the frame body 1 are introduced below.

[0069] See also Figures 1 to 4 In some embodiments, the frame body 1 includes a front foot group 100, a seat frame group 200, a handlebar group 300 and a rear foot group 400. The front foot group 100 is pivotally connected to the rear foot group 400 to form a first pivot A. The handlebar group 300 is pivotally connected to the rear foot group 400 to form a second pivot B. The seat frame group 200 is installed on the front foot group 100 and the rear foot group 400. The pivot axis of the hook mounting seat 101 and the seat frame group 200 described later is the third pivot C. The pivot axis of the front foot tube joint 11 of the front foot group 100 and the seat frame group 200 is also the third pivot C.

[0070] See also Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figures 6a to 6d, the folding and closing of the frame body 1 is controlled by the folding mechanism 10. The folding mechanism 10 includes a hook mounting seat 101, a fixing tube 102, a fixing rod 103, a second lock hook 104, a pull ring 105, a frame unlocking member 106 and an elastic reset member 107. Among them, the hook mounting seat 101 is rotatably mounted on the seat frame assembly 200 of the frame body 1. The hook mounting seat 101 includes two, and a hook mounting seat 101 is installed on each side of the width direction of the frame body 1. The two hook mounting seats 101 are fixed together with the fixing tube 102 through a pin. In other words, if the fixing tube 102 rotates, the hook mounting seat 101 will rotate with the fixing tube 102. The fixing rod 103 is fixed to the seat frame assembly 200, and the fixing rod 103 cannot rotate. The fixing rod 103 and the fixing tube 102 are both located on the same side of the third pivot C of the hook mounting seat 101 and the seat frame assembly 200, see Figure 7a and Figure 7b , so that when the fixing tube 102 rotates, the hook fixing seat is driven to rotate in a direction away from the fixing rod 103.

[0071] The two-way lock hook 104 has a first slot 104d, and the hook mounting seat 101 has a second slot 101a. The opening directions of the first slot 104d and the second slot 101a are opposite, so that the first slot 104d and the second slot 101a can cooperate to hold the fixing rod 103. When the first slot 104d and the second slot 101a hold the fixing rod 103 together, the frame body 1 is in a locked state. When the first slot 104d and the second slot 101a both release the fixing rod 103, the frame body 1 is in an unlocked state.

[0072] See also Figures 5 to 6d, the following describes the connection method between the two-way lock hook 104 and the fixed tube 102. The two-way lock hook 104 is provided with a first hole 104a for installing the fixed tube 102 and a second hole 104b connected to the first hole 104a. The second hole 104b is perpendicular to the axial direction of the first hole 104a. The fixed tube 102 passes through the first hole 104a. A locking hole 102b is provided on the wall of the part of the fixed tube 102 located inside the first hole 104a. The locking hole 102b is perpendicular to the center hole 102a of the fixed tube 102. A middle part of the frame unlocking member 106 is located in the second hole 104b, and the first end of the frame unlocking member 106 can extend into the center hole 102a through the locking hole 102b. If the first end of the frame unlocking member 106 extends into the center hole 102a, the frame unlocking member 106 is in a locked state. When in the locked state, the second lock hook 104 and the fixed tube 102 are fixed together. If the first end of the frame unlocking member 106 does not extend into the center hole 102a, the frame unlocking member 106 is in the unlocked state. When in the locked state, the second lock hook 104 can rotate at a certain angle relative to the fixed tube 102. When the rotation angle of the second lock hook 104 relative to the fixed tube 102 does not exceed the limit, the rotation of the second lock hook 104 will not cause the fixed tube 102 to rotate. If the rotation of the second lock hook 104 exceeds the above limit, the rotation of the second lock hook 104 will cause the fixed tube 102 to rotate together, which will be described in detail later.

[0073] Continue to see Figures 5 to 6d , a first annular member 106a protruding toward the outside is provided at a position closer to the first end of the frame unlocking member 106. A second annular member 104c is provided at an end of the second hole 104b away from the first hole 104a protruding toward the inside of the hole. An elastic reset member 107 is sandwiched between the first annular member 106a and the second annular member 104c. The elastic reset member 107 can be specifically a compression spring. The second end of the frame unlocking member 106 is located outside the second hole 104b, and the pull ring 105 is fixed to the second end of the frame unlocking member 106.

[0074] See also Figure 5 ,or Figures 6a to 6d The following describes the detailed process of locking and unlocking the second lock hook 104 and the fixing tube 102; locking and unlocking the second lock hook 104 and the fixing rod 103; and locking and unlocking the hook mounting seat 101 and the fixing rod 103.

[0075] When the pull ring 105 is pulled outward, the pull ring 105 compresses the elastic reset member 107, and the pull ring 105 drives the frame unlocking member 106 to slide along the inner wall of the second hole 104b, so that the first end of the pull ring 105 is disengaged from the locking hole 102b of the fixing tube 102. In this way, the locking between the second lock hook 104 and the fixing tube 102 is released.

[0076] Continue to pull the pull ring 105 upward, the pull ring 105 will drive the pedal unlocking pin 321 and the second lock seat hook to rotate around the fixed tube 102, so that the first slot 104d of the second lock hook 104 leaves the fixed rod 103 to unlock the second lock seat hook and the fixed rod 103.

[0077] The rotation of the second lock hook 104 equivalent to the fixed tube 102 has an angle range. When the second lock hook 104 equivalent to the fixed tube 102 rotates to the limit position (limited by the limit member 6, see Figure 6d ), continue to pull the pull ring 105, which will cause the second lock hook 104 to drive the fixed tube 102 to rotate together. Since the fixed tube 102 and the hook mounting seat 101 are fixedly connected together, the rotation of the fixed tube 102 will drive the hook mounting seat 101 to rotate together. As described above, since the positions of the third pivot C of the hook mounting seat 101 and the seat frame assembly 200 satisfy: the fixed rod 103 and the fixed tube 102 are both located on the same side of the third pivot C of the hook mounting seat 101 and the seat frame assembly 200, so pulling the pull ring 105 upwards will cause the hook mounting seat 101 to rotate upwards, so that the second slot 101a of the hook mounting seat 101 is away from the fixed rod 103. At this point, the locking of the frame body 1 on the first pivot C is released, and by pulling the vehicle retracting wire rope 6, see Figure 2 , the frame body 1 can be folded.

[0078] During the folding process of the frame body 1, the front leg assembly 100, the seat frame assembly 200, the handlebar assembly 300 and the rear leg assembly 400 will rotate at their respective pivot points. The cover 12 is a component disposed between the front leg assembly 100 and the handlebar assembly 300. The cover 12 has two pivot axes, one is a first pivot axis A and the other is a second pivot axis B. Figure 2 The cover 12 is fixed on the rear foot 400 and does not rotate. The handlebar assembly 300 / front foot assembly 100 are rotatably connected to the cover 12 to form a first pivot A and a second pivot B. During the folding process of the frame, the cover 12 does not rotate, and the front foot assembly 100 on the cover 12 rotates around the first pivot A. The following text will introduce how to unlock the pedal assembly 2 and then fold it with the folding of the frame body 1. Before introducing this content, the specific implementation method of the pedal assembly 2 and the posture adjustment mechanism 4 and the connection method between the pedal assembly 2 and the frame body 1 are first introduced.

[0079] See also Figure 8 In some embodiments, the baby stroller frame further includes a posture adjustment mechanism 4, which is disposed between the footrest assembly 2 and the frame body 1, and the posture adjustment mechanism 4 is configured to adjust the posture of the footrest assembly 2 relative to the frame body 1 in the unfolded state.

[0080] The following introduces the respective implementation methods and connection relationships of the pedal assembly 2, the locking mechanism 3, and the posture adjustment mechanism 4.

[0081] See also Figure 8 The pedal assembly 2 is not a footboard on the front foot group 100, but a separate rod for infants and young children to step on. The pedal assembly 2 includes a transverse tube 21, a wrench fixing seat 22, a wrench 23 and a bending tube 24. The bending tube 24 is roughly L-shaped, and two L-shaped tubes and a transverse tube 21 are used to form a square structure to facilitate infants and young children to step on. The transverse tube 21 is a straight tube, and the transverse tube 21 is a rotatable component that can be rotated after being unlocked. The unlocking operation of the pedal assembly 2 is realized by two groups of mechanisms, one group is the posture adjustment mechanism 4, and the posture adjustment mechanism 4 can unlock the pedal assembly 2 when the frame body 1 is in the unfolded and locked state, and then manually lift and lower the bending tube 24 to achieve the posture adjustment of the pedal assembly 2. Another group of mechanisms for unlocking the pedal assembly 2 is the unlocking mechanism 32 mentioned above. The unlocking mechanism 32 can unlock the pedal assembly 2 after the frame body 1 is unlocked, and then under the action of the tension spring, the pedal assembly 2 is retracted synchronously with the retraction of the frame body 1. The tension spring is a driving component 5 disposed between the cross tube 21 and the frame body 1. These contents will be described in detail later.

[0082] See also Figure 9a , Fig.15 and Fig.16 In some embodiments, the driving member 43 of the posture adjustment mechanism 4 is fixed on the pedal assembly 2, so that the posture of the pedal assembly 2, that is, the angle relative to the front foot group 100, can be easily adjusted. In order to facilitate the installation of the driving member 43, as described above, the pedal assembly 2 also includes a wrench fixing seat 22 and a wrench 23. The wrench fixing seat 22 is fixedly connected to both bending tubes 24, and the wrench fixing seat 22 is located between the two bending tubes 24. The wrench 23 is rotatably mounted on the wrench fixing seat 22, and the driving member 43 is connected to the wrench 23. The driving member 43 described above is driven to move by the rotation of the wrench 23 relative to the wrench fixing seat 22. One end of the bending tube 24 is fixedly connected to the second mounting hole 412 of the pedal joint 41, and the other end of the bending tube 24 is fixedly connected to the wrench fixing seat 22. The driving member 43 is specifically a rope, which is pressed on the wrench fixing seat 22 by a pressing sleeve 45. The pressing sleeve 45 is fixedly connected with the split pin 46 and the wrench fixing seat 22. The end of the rope is fixed with the handle 23.

[0083] In other embodiments, a pedal joint 41 described below is installed at one end of each bending tube 24 away from the wrench fixing seat 22 .

[0084] The specific implementation of the locking mechanism 31 is first introduced below.

[0085] See also Figures 9a to 12The frame body 1 includes a front foot tube joint 11. The locking mechanism 31 includes a first meshing tooth 311 and a locking gear 312. The first meshing tooth 311 is provided at the front foot tube joint 11, and the locking gear 312 is provided with a second meshing tooth 312a. When the first meshing tooth 311 and the second meshing tooth 312a are meshed with each other, the pedal assembly 2 is in a locked state relative to the frame body 1; when the first meshing tooth 311 and the second meshing tooth 312a are disengaged, the pedal assembly 2 is in an unlocked state relative to the frame body 1. Moreover, the locked state between the pedal assembly 2 and the frame body 1 is unlocked as the frame body 1 is unlocked.

[0086] The above technical solution makes the first meshing tooth 311 and the second meshing tooth 312a move away from each other in the axial direction to break the meshing relationship; and makes the first meshing tooth 311 and the second meshing tooth 312a move closer to each other in the axial direction to form the meshing relationship.

[0087] See also Fig.11 In order to make it easier for the second meshing tooth 312a to disengage from the first meshing tooth 311 , in some embodiments, a guide slope 312b is provided on the end surface of the second meshing tooth 312a facing the first meshing tooth 311 .

[0088] The specific implementation of the unlocking mechanism 32 is described below.

[0089] See also Figures 9a to 12 The frame body 1 further includes a cover 12, which is disposed on a side of the front leg tube joint 11 away from the locking mechanism 3. Figure 9a and Figure 9b The unlocking mechanism 32 includes a pedal unlocking pin 321 and an unlocking inclined surface 322. The pedal unlocking pin 321 is arranged on the front foot tube joint 11 so as to be movable along its own axial direction, and the pedal unlocking pin 321 penetrates and extends out of the front foot tube joint 11. The cover body 12 is provided with an unlocking inclined surface 322. The cover body 12 is constructed such that the front foot group 100 rotates relative to the cover body 12 so that the unlocking inclined surface 322 abuts against the pedal unlocking pin 321, so that the pedal unlocking pin 321 moves along its own axial direction. In the process of the pedal unlocking pin 321 moving linearly relative to the cover body 12, the pedal unlocking pin 321 gradually pushes to the end surface of the second meshing tooth 312a facing the first meshing tooth 311. In this way, the pedal unlocking pin 321 can push the second meshing tooth 312a in a direction away from the first meshing tooth 311, so that the first meshing tooth 311 and the second meshing tooth 312a are disengaged.

[0090] See also Figure 9a to Figure 1 4. The specific implementation method of the posture adjustment mechanism 4 is introduced below.

[0091] The posture adjustment mechanism 4 is disposed on a side of the locking gear 312 away from the front leg tube joint 11 ; the adjustment mechanism is configured to make the second meshing teeth 312 a of the locking gear 312 disengage from the first meshing teeth 311 .

[0092] The posture adjustment mechanism 4 can also make the first meshing tooth 311 and the second meshing tooth 312a disengage / form a meshing relationship. After the posture adjustment mechanism 4 makes the first meshing tooth 311 and the second meshing tooth 312a disengage, the pedal assembly 2 can rotate relative to the frame body 1 to adjust the posture of the pedal assembly 2, that is, the angle of the pedal assembly 2 relative to the frame body 1.

[0093] The pedal joint 41 described above is a part of the posture adjustment mechanism 4. In addition to the pedal joint 41, the posture adjustment mechanism 4 also includes a sliding sleeve 42 and a driving member 43. Fig.10 , the pedal joint 41 has a first mounting hole 411. Fig.14a and Fig.14b The sliding sleeve 42 has a through hole 424, and the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 42 is provided with a top inclined surface 421. Fig.11 The end of the locking gear 312 away from the second meshing tooth 312a is provided with an arc surface 312c protruding toward the outside; the abutting inclined surface 421 is located between the arc surface 312c and the second meshing tooth 312a, and the arc surface 312c and the abutting inclined surface 421 abut each other; the sliding sleeve 42 is rotatably arranged inside the first mounting hole 411. The driving member 43 is connected to the sliding sleeve 42 so that the sliding sleeve 42 rotates relative to the pedal joint 41. The rotation of the sliding sleeve 42 relative to the pedal joint 41 causes the abutting inclined surface 421 to move axially with the arc surface 312c, so that the first meshing tooth 311 and the second meshing tooth 312a are disengaged.

[0094] See also Figure 9a and Fig.16 In some embodiments, the driving member 43 includes a pull rope, and a groove 422 is circumferentially provided on the outer surface of the sleeve 42, one section of the pull rope is located in the groove 422, and one end of the pull rope is fixed to the sleeve 42, and the other end of the pull rope serves as a force-applying end.

[0095] 14 , in some embodiments, the sliding sleeve 42 is provided with an avoidance groove 423 , which matches the shape of the arc surface 312 c to avoid interference between the abutting inclined surface 421 and the arc surface 312 c when the arc surface 312 c is installed on the sliding sleeve 42 .

[0096] See also Figure 9a As shown in FIG. 14 , in some other embodiments, the posture adjustment mechanism 4 further includes a return spring 44 disposed between the sliding sleeve 42 and the second meshing tooth 312 a , and the return spring 44 is configured to return the sliding sleeve 42 to its original position.

[0097] From the above description, it can be seen that the pedal assembly 2 mainly has the following actions: adjusting its own posture and folding and closing along with the folding and closing of the frame body 1.

[0098] Before these two actions, the lock between the pedal assembly 2 and the frame body 1 needs to be unlocked. The unlocking is finally achieved by the second meshing tooth 312a leaving the first meshing tooth 311. The difference is that: in the process of adjusting the posture itself, the second meshing tooth 312a is driven by the driving member 43 to leave the first meshing tooth 311. When the pedal assembly 2 is folded with the folding of the frame body 1, the unlocking inclined surface 121 on the cover body 12 pushes the pedal unlocking pin 321 to press against the second meshing tooth 312a, so that the second meshing tooth 312a and the first meshing tooth 311 are separated.

[0099] Specifically, in the process of adjusting the posture of the vehicle, the process of the second meshing teeth 312a and the first meshing teeth 311 being separated is as follows: when the wrench 23 is pulled, the wrench 23 rotates relative to the wrench fixing seat 22, and the rope (as the driving member 43) fixedly connected to the wrench 23 is pulled. Since the other end of the rope is fixed to the sliding sleeve 42. After the rope is pulled, the sliding sleeve 42 will be driven to rotate relative to the pedal joint 41. During the rotation of the sliding sleeve 42, since the sliding sleeve 42 and the locking gear 312 cooperate through the top inclined surface 421 and the arc surface 312c, the top inclined surface 421 of the sliding sleeve 42 will push the arc surface 312c to move away from the first meshing teeth 311, thereby disengaging the first meshing teeth 311 and the second meshing teeth 312a, thereby achieving the unlocking of the pedal assembly 2 relative to the frame body 1. After unlocking, the angle of the pedal assembly 2 relative to the frame body 1 can be manually adjusted up and down to achieve the posture adjustment of the pedal assembly 2.

[0100] When the pedal assembly 2 is folded as the frame body 1 is folded, the second meshing teeth 312a and the first meshing teeth 311 are separated as follows: after the third pivot C is unlocked, the cover body 12 rotates as the frame body 1 is folded. When the front foot assembly 100 connected to the cover body 12 rotates, the unlocking inclined surface 121 on the cover body 12 pushes the pedal unlocking pin 321 to abut against the second meshing teeth 312a, so that the second meshing teeth 312a and the first meshing teeth 311 are separated.

[0101] See also Figure 17a to Figure 17d The following describes the folding process of the footrest assembly 2 as the frame assembly is folded.

[0102] like Fig.17aAs shown, the original state is that the frame body 1 is in the unfolded state, the frame unlocking member 106 penetrates into the first hole 104a under the independent action of the elastic reset member 107, the second lock hook 104 is locked, the second lock hook 104 is engaged on the fixing rod 103, the frame unlocking member 106 is locked, and the frame unlocking member 106 is engaged on the other side of the fixing rod 103, thereby keeping the frame body 1 in the unfolded state.

[0103] When the frame body 1 needs to be folded, refer to Figures 6a to 7b , by pulling the pull ring 105, the frame unlocking member 106 overcomes the force of the elastic reset member 107 under the action of the pull ring 105 and disengages from the first hole 104a, and the second lock hook 104 is unlocked. At this time, the pull ring 105 is lifted upward to drive the second lock hook 104 to rotate, and the second lock hook 104 is separated from the fixed rod 103, and the frame unlocking member 106 is unlocked. At this time, the pull ring 105 is continued to be lifted upward, and then the frame unlocking member 106 is driven to rotate, and the frame unlocking member 106 is separated from the fixed rod 103, and the frame unlocking member 106 is in an unlocked state. After the frame body 1 is folded, it can stand, occupying a small space and having high folding stability.

[0104] The process of rotating and folding the frame body 1 around the third pivot C is as follows: the unlocking inclined surface 121 on the cover body 12 pushes the pedal unlocking pin 321 introduced above. The pedal unlocking pin 321 pushes the second engagement tooth 312a to move to unlock the pedal assembly 4. Then the pedal assembly 4 is fixed to the driving component 5 on the seat frame tube of the seat frame assembly 200, specifically, the tension spring pulls to rotate and fold the pedal assembly 4 around the pivot C.
