If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only used for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0022] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 6 The leg structure of the first embodiment of the present invention includes: a base 100, which is provided with a boss 110 and a drawer opening 101; a support assembly, including a leg 200, a movable part 310 and a first slider 320, the movable part 310 is slidably arranged at the drawer opening 101, the leg 200 is hinged on the movable part 310, the movable part 310 is provided with a first guide groove 311, and the first slider 320 is slidably arranged in the first guide groove 311; a connecting rod assembly, including a first connecting rod component 331 and a second connecting rod component 332, the two ends of the first connecting rod component 331 are respectively hinged to the leg 200 and the first slider 320, and the two ends of the second connecting rod component 332 are respectively movably connected to the boss 110 and the first slider 320.

[0024] When the movable part 310 is retracted into the base 100, the first slider 320 is driven to slide through the second connecting rod part 332, and at the same time, the first slider 320 drives the leg 200 to rotate through the first connecting rod part 331, so that the leg 200 is folded and stored at the bottom of the base 100, realizing synchronous folding and retracting movement. In addition, when the leg 200 is rotated from a folded state to a supported state, the movable part 310 driven by the leg 200 slides while the leg 200 rotates, so that the leg 200 is fully extended, thereby avoiding improper operation that causes the leg 200 to be not fully unfolded, thereby improving the safety performance of the seat.

[0025] It is understandable that, referring to Figures 1 to 3 The support assembly also includes a limiting member 250, which abuts against the support leg 200 to prevent the support leg 200 from being over-expanded, and at the same time provides a limit for the rotation stroke of the support leg 200 to improve the stability of the support leg 200.

[0026] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3The base 100 is provided with a guide member 340, and the guide member 340 has a second guide groove. The movable member 310 is slidably connected to the second guide groove. When the movable member 310 moves, it slides horizontally along the second guide groove to ensure that the movable member 310 slides smoothly.

[0027] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 2 The base 100 is provided with a storage groove 102, and the storage groove 102 matches the legs 200, so that when the legs 200 are folded, the legs 200 are stored in the storage groove 102, making the base 100 beautiful as a whole.

[0028] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 A support block 230 is provided at the bottom end of the support leg 200 , and an anti-slip pad 231 is provided on the bottom side of the support block 230 to increase the friction between the support leg 200 and the carriage floor, prevent the base 100 from sliding, and improve the stability of the base 100 .

[0029] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first slider 320 is provided with a first positioning block and a second positioning block 322, both of which pass through the first guide slot 311. The first positioning block is provided with a screw 321, which abuts against the end surface of the first guide slot 311. The upper end of the second positioning block 322 is protruding to form a clamping portion, and the clamping portion 323 is clamped with the first guide slot 311. The first positioning block and the second positioning block 322 both pass through the first guide slot 311 to prevent the first slider 320 from rotating when moving along the first guide slot 311, thereby ensuring the stability of the first slider 320. Moreover, the screw 321 can be loosened, and the second positioning block 322 can be rotated to allow the clamping portion 323 to pass through the first guide slot 311, thereby facilitating the disassembly of the first slider 320.

[0030] For details, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The second connecting rod component 332 includes a first connecting rod 333 and a second connecting rod 334. The first connecting rod 333 is hinged on the movable member 310. One end of the first connecting rod 333 is hinged to the second connecting rod 334. The other end of the first connecting rod 333 is hinged to the first slider 320. The other end of the first connecting rod 333 is provided with a third guide groove 335. The third guide groove 335 is slidably connected to the first slider 320. The second connecting rod 334 is hinged to the boss 110. When the first connecting rod 333 and the second connecting rod 334 rotate, the first slider 320 slides along the third guide groove 335 at the same time, automatically adjusting the position between the first slider 320 and the first connecting rod 333 to avoid self-locking, and ensuring that the first slider 320 and the second connecting rod 334 component 332 move smoothly.

[0031] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 5 The leg 200 is provided with a telescopic module, and the leg 200 is provided with a switch key 210, and the switch key 210 is used to turn on or off the telescopic module. The telescopic module is turned on by the switch key 210 to extend or shorten the leg 200 to adapt to the seat height, or the telescopic module is turned off to keep the leg 200 stable.

[0032] It is understandable that, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 The movable member 310 is hinged with an indicator member 241, and the movable member 310 is provided with a housing 220, and the housing 220 is connected to the movable member 310. The housing 220 is provided with an indicator hole 221, and the indicator hole 221 is arranged corresponding to the indicator member 241. The two ends of the second slider 242 are respectively in contact with the indicator member 241 and the switch key 210. When the switch key 210 is driven to unlock the telescopic module, the switch key 210 drives the second slider 242 to move, so that the second slider 242 drives the indicator member 241 to rotate. Different colors can be set on the side of the indicator member 241 facing the indicator hole 221, and the indicator member 241 rotates to change the color corresponding to the indicator hole 221, so as to know whether the telescopic module is opened or closed, which is convenient for users to understand whether the telescopic module is unlocked, thereby improving the user experience. The movable member 310 is provided with a rotating shaft 312, and the indicator member 241 is rotatably provided on the rotating shaft 312. A torsion spring is provided on the rotating shaft 312, and the indicator member 241 is driven to reset by the torsion spring. When the indicator member 241 is reset, the switch key 210 is driven to reset by the second slider 242, thereby automatically closing the telescopic module.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 The child safety seat of the second embodiment of the present invention includes the leg structure of the first embodiment of the present invention. When the movable member 310 is retracted into the base 100, the first slider 320 is driven to slide through the second connecting rod member 332, and at the same time, the first slider 320 drives the leg 200 to rotate through the first connecting rod member 331, so that the leg 200 is folded and stored at the bottom of the base 100, and the folding and retracting synchronous movement is realized. In addition, when the leg 200 is rotated from the folded state to the supporting state, the movable member 310 driven by the leg 200 slides while the leg 200 rotates, so that the leg 200 is fully extended, so as to avoid improper operation causing the leg 200 to not be fully extended, thereby improving the safety performance of the seat.

[0034] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
