[0020] The present invention will be specifically introduced below in combination with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0021] Referring to Figures 1 to 6 , a foldable recreational facility on the top of a motorhome, including a recreational facility 100, a drive unit 200, and a connecting portion 300. The recreational facility 100 includes a deck chair 110 and a table 120, and the connecting portion 300 includes a first connecting portion 310.

[0022] The reclining chair 110 includes seat legs 111, a seat frame 112, backrest legs 113, and a backrest frame 114. The top of the seat legs 111 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the seat frame 112. There are three seat legs 111. Taking the end where the backrest legs 113 are located as the front, the bottoms of the seat legs 111 at the front and middle are both rotatably connected to the upper part of the RV roof, and the bottom of the seat leg 111 at the rear is fixedly connected to the first connecting part 310. The upper part of the backrest legs 113 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the backrest frame 114, and the lower part of the backrest legs 113 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the RV roof. The lower part of the backrest frame 114 is rotatably connected to the front part of the seat frame 112.

[0023] The table 120 includes table legs 121 and a tabletop 122. There are two table legs 121. The top of the front table leg 121 is rotatably connected to the tabletop 122, and the bottom is rotatably connected to the upper part of the RV roof. The top of the rear table leg 121 is rotatably connected to the tabletop 122, and the bottom is fixedly connected to the first connecting part 310. One end of the driving part 200 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the tabletop 122, and the other end is rotatably connected to the upper part of the RV roof. The first connecting part 310 is rotatably connected to the upper part of the RV roof.

[0024] Through the settings of the driving part 200 and the first connecting part 310, the synchronous unfolding or folding of the reclining chair 110 and the table 120 can be realized.

[0025] Furthermore, there are two reclining chairs 110, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the upper part of the RV roof. The table 120 is arranged between the two reclining chairs 110. This setting allows people to enjoy leisure activities such as having delicious food, tasting tea, or playing cards while resting on the viewing terrace.

[0026] With the above scheme, when in use, the leisure facilities 100 are unfolded. At this time, the leisure facilities 100 and the RV roof can jointly form a viewing terrace for people to relax and entertain. When not in use, they are folded, greatly reducing the height of the RV during normal driving.

[0027] Furthermore, the leisure facilities 100 further include a folding fence 130 provided on the upper part of the RV roof. The connecting part 300 further includes a second connecting part 320. The folding fence 130 is arranged on the periphery of the RV roof, and its bottom is rotatably connected to the RV roof. One end of the second connecting part 320 is rotatably connected to the folding fence 130, and the other end is rotatably connected to the table 120. Thus, through the movement of the driving part 200, it can be rotated and unfolded or folded relative to the RV roof. The folding fence 130 mainly plays a role in safety protection.

[0028] Through the setting of the second connecting part 320, the folding fence 130 can move synchronously with the reclining chair 110 and the table 120.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the driving part 200 is a hydraulic cylinder. The hydraulic cylinder has a large output force and can bear sufficient loads, ensuring safe and reliable use.

[0030] As a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 5 , two drawers 123 are provided at the bottom of the table 120 for people to store items, and when the drawers 123 are fully pulled out, they do not affect the normal use of the reclining chair 110.

[0031] As a further preference, the upper end of the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 200 is located between the two drawers 123.

[0032] As a preferred embodiment, the plane A where the upper edge of the fence 130 is located after folding is higher than the plane B where the upper edge of the reclining chair 110 is located after folding, and also higher than the plane C where the upper edge of the table 120 is located after folding. The advantage of this setting is that when the roof of the motorhome drops, it abuts against the upper edge of the fence 130 and does not come into contact with the reclining chair 110 and the table 120, thus preventing scratches on the reclining chair 110 and the table 120.

[0033] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the number of the reclining chair 110 and the table 120 can be one, two, or multiple, and the leisure facilities 100 can also include a folding bed, a folding cabinet, etc.

[0034] The working principle of the foldable leisure facilities on the top of the motorhome of the present invention is as follows: When in use, first raise the roof of the motorhome, and then control the driving part 200 to deploy the leisure facilities 100. At this time, people can go up to the roof of the motorhome to use the leisure facilities 100; when not in use, operate in reverse to fold the leisure facilities 100, and then lower the roof.

[0035] The above embodiments only illustrate the basic principles and characteristics of the present invention. The present invention is not limited by the above embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, there are various changes and modifications to the present invention, and these changes and modifications all fall within the scope of the present invention claimed. The scope of the present invention claimed is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
