Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of car child seats, and more specifically, to a knob-type child seat support leg. Background Technology

[0002] The current child seat support legs use a guide rail and a guide groove. The guide rail is connected to the guide groove by a pin, and the pin is connected to a button by an oval iron ring. Pushing the button causes the pin to be pulled out and inserted through the action of the spring and the oval iron ring. This method is cumbersome and requires both hands to operate at the same time.

[0003] Figure 11 The image shows a height adjustment device for a child seat support leg. When in operation, a finger applies force to the ring buckle 103, and the pin 102 is pushed out of the slot 105 under the constraint of the spring 104 and the ring buckle 103. The guide rail 101 can be adjusted up and down. When the force applied to the ring buckle 103 is released, the pin 102 is pushed into the slot 105 by the force of the spring 104 applied to the ring buckle 103, thus fixing the guide rail 101.

[0004] Insufficient existing patents:

[0005] 1. The operation is not convenient enough. It requires two hands to adjust the length of the support leg. When one hand presses the button, the other hand needs to pull out the guide rail or push it into the guide groove. Therefore, it is difficult to adjust the posture of the child seat and match the seat support leg with the floor at the same time.

[0006] 2. It cannot be steplessly adjusted, so its applicability is not high and it is difficult to be well compatible with the actual needs of different car models.

[0007] Therefore, how to provide a child seat support leg that can effectively achieve stepless adjustment, improve seat stability, and make the support leg fit more closely to the floor has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0039] Various exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions, and values ​​of the components and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the invention.

[0040] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the invention or its application or use.

[0041] Techniques, methods, and equipment known to those skilled in the art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, such techniques, methods, and equipment should be considered part of the specification.

[0042] In all the examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0043] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items; therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be discussed further in subsequent figures.

[0044] according to Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the present invention provides a knob-type child seat support leg, including an adjustment gear 4, a support leg, an adjustment mechanism, and a locking mechanism 7.

[0045] The support leg is located at the bottom of the child seat and consists of a fixed leg 1 and a movable leg 2 formed in one piece. The movable leg 2 has a tooth 3 on one side, which meshes with the adjusting gear 4 for transmission.

[0046] The adjustment mechanism is located at the center of one end face of the adjustment gear 4, and it is used to drive the adjustment gear 4 to rotate so that the height of the child seat can be adjusted.

[0047] The locking mechanism 7 is located on the other end face of the adjusting gear 4 and is connected to the adjusting mechanism. It is used to lock the adjusting gear 4 so that the height of the child seat is fixed.

[0048] Furthermore, the adjustment mechanism includes a handle 6 and a hexagonal base 5. A hexagonal hole 43 is provided at the center of the adjustment gear 4, and the hexagonal base 5 is disposed within the hexagonal hole 43. The handle 6 is connected to the hexagonal base 5, and the handle 6 can drive the hexagonal base 5 and the adjustment gear 4 to rotate. In this embodiment, the hexagonal base 5 and the hexagonal hole 43 are tightly fitted, thereby ensuring that the hexagonal base 5 can drive the adjustment gear 4 to rotate. Additionally, during installation, a cover 42 is provided at the bottom of the hexagonal hole 43. The cover 42 can be used to rotatably connect the adjustment gear 4 to the side of the support leg to ensure that the gear teeth 3 between the adjustment gear 4 and the moving leg 2 mesh.

[0049] Furthermore, the handle 6 includes a handle portion 61, a support shaft 62, and a central rod 63. A through hole 53 is provided at the center of the hexagonal base 5. One end of the central rod 63 is connected to the center of the handle portion 61, and the other end extends into the through hole 53 and connects to the locking mechanism 7. The support shaft 62 is arranged on both sides of the handle portion 61, symmetrically with respect to the central rod 63. The end of the hexagonal base 5 facing the handle portion 61 also has multiple grooves 51. The support shaft 62 is embedded in the grooves 51 and slidably connected by a support pin 64. In implementation, the support pin 64 connects the support rod to the grooves 51 on the hexagonal base 5 to prevent the handle 6 from falling off. Simultaneously, the grooves 51 guide and restrict the movement of the handle 6. In the unlocked state, the support shaft 62 moves towards the groove 51; in the locked state, the end of the support shaft 62 is not at the bottom of the groove 51.

[0050] Furthermore, the hexagonal base 5 is provided with a circumferentially protruding skirt 52 at the end away from the handle part 61. The inner side of the hexagonal hole 43 is recessed with a limiting groove (not shown in the figure) that cooperates with the skirt 52, so that the hexagonal base 5 is restricted within the hexagonal hole 43 to prevent the hexagonal base 5 from disengaging from the adjusting gear 4, and the skirt 52 has a vertical movement space within the limiting groove.

[0051] Furthermore, the locking mechanism 7 includes a first push rod 71, a second push rod 72, a first rotating plate 74, a second rotating plate 75, and a locking rod 76. The first push rod 71 is slidably connected in the through hole 53 and abuts against the intermediate rod 63. One end of the second push rod 72 is slidably connected in the through hole 53 and abuts against the first push rod 71, while the other end passes through the bottom surface of the hexagonal hole 43 and is provided with a connecting rod 722 bent into a vertical shape.

[0052] The first rotating plate 74 and the second rotating plate 75 are provided with a rotating joint 77 rotatably connected along the width direction. The rotating joint 77 is fixed on the fixed leg 1 and located on the side of the gear tooth 3 near the moving leg 2. One end of the first rotating plate 74 is rotatably connected to one end of the second rotating plate 75 through a latch 79. The other end of the first rotating plate 74 is rotatably connected to the connecting rod 722. The end of the second rotating plate 75 away from the first rotating plate 74 is rotatably connected to the locking rod 76. The locking rod 76 faces the end face of the adjusting gear 4, and the end face of the adjusting gear 4 is provided with a plurality of locking holes 41 that cooperate with the locking rod 76. When the handle 6 is pressed, the locking rod 76 can be pulled out from the locking holes 41. When the handle 6 is pulled up, the locking rod 76 can be inserted into different locking holes 41 so that the adjusting gear 4 is locked.

[0053] In this embodiment, the downward pressure of the handle 6 pushes the hexagonal base 5 downward until the skirt 52 is engaged with the lower edge of the limiting groove in the hexagonal hole 43 of the adjusting gear 4. Simultaneously, the downward pressure of the middle rod 63 of the handle 6 pushes the first push rod 71 downward. Due to the pressure of the handle, the hexagonal base 5 moves downward, further pushing the second push rod 72 axially a certain distance. Both the first rotating plate 74 and the second rotating plate 75 are fixed to the fixed leg 1 via a rotating joint 77. Therefore, both the first rotating plate 74 and the second rotating plate 75 can only rotate around their corresponding rotating joints 77. When the second push rod 72 pushes one end of the first rotating plate 74, the other end of the first rotating plate 74 rotates accordingly, causing the second rotating plate 75 to rotate accordingly. Finally, this causes the end of the locking rod 76 to rotate, disengaging the locking rod 76 from the locking hole 41, thus unlocking it. When locking, the second rotating plate 75 presses the locking rod 76 down towards the adjusting gear 4, inserting the locking rod 76 into the locking hole 41, thus locking the adjusting gear 4.

[0054] Furthermore, in implementation, since the locking rod 76 is rotatably connected to the second rotating plate 75, in order to ensure that the locking rod 76 can accurately enter the corresponding locking hole 41, the present invention also provides a guide rod 78 on the fixed leg 1. The guide rod 78 is parallel to the rotating pair 77, and the end of the guide rod 78 is provided with a guide ring 781, which is sleeved on the locking rod 76 so that the locking rod 76 corresponds precisely to the locking hole 41. In addition, the locking holes 41 of the present invention are arranged in a ring array on the cross-section of the adjusting gear 4 with the center of the adjusting gear 4 as the center. The locking holes 41 can be blind holes or through holes 53.

[0055] Furthermore, both ends of the first rotating plate 74 and the second rotating plate 75 are provided with oblong holes 73, and the rotating parts of the connecting rod 722, the lock, and the locking rod 76 are respectively fitted into the corresponding oblong holes 73. In implementation, since the positions of the first rotating plate 74 and the second rotating plate 75 are restricted by the rotary joint 77, when they rotate, there will inevitably be some adjustment in the horizontal distance. In order to compensate for the distance deviation caused by the rotation, corresponding oblong holes 73 are provided on the first rotating plate 74 and the second rotating plate 75 so that when they rotate, the connecting rod 722, the latch 79, and the locking rod 76 of the second push rod 72 will not be offset.

[0056] Furthermore, the first push rod 71 includes a stop plate 711, a first slide rod 712, and a push rod body 713. A first fixing plate 55 is provided within the through hole 53 of the hexagonal base 5. The first fixing plate 55 has a first through hole. The first slide rod 712 is slidably connected within the first through hole. The stop plate 711 is located at one end of the first slide rod 712 and abuts against the intermediate rod 63. The push rod body 713 is located at the other end of the first slide rod 712 and abuts against the second push rod 72. A first spring 714 is also provided between the stop plate 711 and the first fixing plate 55. The first spring 714 is sleeved on the first slide rod 712 so that the handle 6 returns to its original position when no force is applied. In implementation, the position of the first push rod 71 is restricted by the first fixing plate 55, allowing it to slide only within the through hole 53.

[0057] Furthermore, the end of the second push rod 72 furthest from the bend is provided with a limiting boss 721. The shape of the bottom of the hexagonal base 5 matches the limiting boss 721 to restrict the position of the second push rod 72. A second spring 723 is also provided between the limiting boss 721 and the bottom surface of the hexagonal hole 43. The second spring 723 is sleeved on the second push rod 72. The second spring 723 cooperates with the first spring 714 to allow the handle 6 to quickly return to its original position, and the locking rod 76 to quickly lock the adjusting gear 4. In this configuration, the bottom surface of the hexagonal hole 43 is provided with a cover 42, and the second spring 723 can be positioned between the cover 42 and the limiting boss 721.

[0058] In this embodiment, when the handle part 61 is pulled upward, the force exerted by the middle rod 63 of the handle handle 6 on the first push rod 71 is weakened, and then the first push rod 71 is axially pulled back under the action of the first spring 714. Since the first fixing plate 55 is integrated with the hexagonal base 5 of the handle, the force compressed by the first spring 714 during operation is released, and the first push rod 71 and the second push rod 72 can move axially. Since the first push rod 71 is axially pulled back, the hexagonal base 5 can move axially within the limiting groove of the adjusting gear 4. The pressure exerted by the hexagonal base 5 on the second push rod 72 disappears, and the handle handle 6 retracts. The second push rod 72 is axially pulled back by the elastic force released by the second spring 723.

[0059] Furthermore, the hexagonal base 5 is also provided with a side hole 54 perpendicular to the through hole 53. A third push rod 8 is provided in the side hole 54. The third push rod 8 includes a fixed rod 82, a second sliding rod 84, and a moving rod 83. A second fixed plate 56 is provided in the side hole 54. A second through hole is provided on the second fixed plate 56. The second sliding rod 84 is slidably connected in the second through hole. The fixed rod 82 is located at one end of the second sliding rod 84 and is opposite to one of the inner sidewalls of the hexagonal hole 43. The moving rod 83 is located at the other end of the second sliding rod 84 and is opposite to the first push rod 71. The end of the push rod body 713 of the first push rod 71 facing the moving rod 83 is inclined, and the end of the moving rod 83 is arc-shaped, so that when the first push rod 71 slides toward the second push rod 72, the second push rod 72 moves toward the inner sidewall of the hexagonal hole 43 and can be locked into the limiting slot of the hexagonal hole 43. A third spring 81 is also provided between the moving rod 83 and the second fixed plate 56. The third spring 81 is sleeved on the second sliding rod 84 so that when the handle 6 is not under force, the third push rod 8 can quickly return to its original position, and the hexagonal base 5 can retract to the upper edge of the limit slot.

[0060] In this embodiment, due to the pressing force of the handle 61, the hexagonal base 5 moves downward, further pushing the second push rod 72 to move axially a certain distance. Under the action of the inclined surface of the first push rod 71 and the arc surface of the third push rod 8, the third push rod 8 is pushed forward into the limiting slot of the adjusting gear 4, realizing the fixed connection between the hexagonal base 5 and the adjusting gear 4. Lifting the adjusting gear 4 and rotating the handle at this time can drive the adjusting gear 4 to rotate effectively.

[0061] For example Figure 10 As shown, in order to improve the connection strength between the locking mechanism 7 and the fixed leg 1, the rotary joint 77 and the guide rod 78 are also fixedly connected by a connecting lever 771, so that they form an integral structure.

[0062] While specific embodiments of the invention have been described in detail by way of examples, those skilled in the art should understand that the examples are for illustrative purposes only and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can be made to the above embodiments without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. The scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims.
