[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the technical solutions of the present invention will be described in detail below. It is apparent that the embodiments described are only a portion of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other implementations obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention. In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "lateral", "length", "width", "height", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "side" and the like indicate positions or location relationships based on the attached Figure 1 The orientation or positional relationship shown is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operate in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0019] It should also be noted that, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they may refer to fixed, detachable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; and direct or indirect connections through an intermediary. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention depending on the specific circumstances.

[0020] Reference Figures 1 to 6The present invention provides a double-guide rail folding mechanism, comprising a fixed rail unit 1 and a flip rail unit 2 for sliding connection of a lift chair 6, wherein the fixed rail unit 1 is connected to a staircase 7; The drive unit 3 includes a first fixed-side connecting component 31, a second fixed-side connecting component 32, a flip-side connecting component 33, a first adjusting component 34 and a second adjusting component 35; The fixed track unit 1 and the flip track unit 2 are arranged tilted from top to bottom, the first fixed side connecting component 31 is connected to the upper end of the fixed track unit 1, and the second fixed side connecting component 32 is connected to the lower end of the fixed track unit 1; The upper end of the first adjusting assembly 34 is connected to the first fixed-side connecting assembly 31 and the lower end thereof is rotatably connected to the upper end of the second adjusting assembly 35. The second adjusting assembly 35 is rotatably connected to the second fixed-side connecting assembly 32 and the lower end thereof is rotatably connected to the flip-side connecting assembly 33. Driven by the first adjusting assembly 34, the second adjusting assembly 35 can rotate relative to the second fixed-side connecting assembly 32 and drive the flip-side connecting assembly 33. The flip side connecting component 33 is connected to the high end of the flip track unit 2 and is rotationally connected to the second fixed side connecting component 32. Driven by the second adjusting component 35, the flip side connecting component 33 can rotate relative to the second fixed side connecting component 32 and at the same time drive the flip track unit 2 to move synchronously.

[0021] Therefore, on the basis of the driving stroke of the original single driving mechanism, it is adjusted to a combined structure of the first adjusting component 34 and the second adjusting component 35. The first adjusting component 34 has its own independent stroke, and the second adjusting component 35 also has its own independent stroke. On the basis of the relative rotation between the two, the first adjusting component 34 and the second adjusting component 35 can operate at the same time, effectively shortening the folding time, adjusting the overall stroke, saving more effort and energy. At the same time, the driving unit 3 can realize multiple rotations with the cooperation of the above components, and finally enables the flip side connecting component 33 and the flip track unit 2 to be rotated and folded at a larger angle relative to the fixed track unit 1, and the folding range is wider, which can further reduce the occupied space after folding.

[0022] As an optional embodiment, the first fixed side connection assembly 31 includes an adjustment rod 311 and an adjustment sleeve 312. The adjustment rod 311 is connected to the fixed track unit 1, and is preferably connected to the first upper guide rail 11 and the first lower guide rail 12 at the same time in a detachable connection. The adjustment sleeve 312 is connected to the adjustment rod 311, preferably in a detachable connection, and the relative position of the adjustment sleeve 312 and the adjustment rod 311 can be adjusted; The upper end of the first adjustment component 34 is connected to the adjustment sleeve 312, and the connection is preferably detachable. The two remain relatively fixed, and the upper end of the first adjustment component 34 does not rotate relative to each other. During actual application, the first fixed-side connecting component 31 remains relatively stationary as a whole and does not produce relative rotation.

[0023] As an optional embodiment, the second fixed-side connecting assembly 32 includes a first connecting piece 321 , a connecting rod 322 , and a second connecting piece 323 ; The first connecting piece 321 is connected to the lower end of the fixed track unit 1, and is preferably detachably connected. The two ends of the connecting rod 322 are respectively connected to the first connecting piece 321 and the second connecting piece 323, and are preferably detachably connected. The second adjustment component 35 is located between the first connecting piece 321 and the second connecting piece 323 , and the second adjustment component 35 is rotatably connected to the first connecting piece 321 and the second connecting piece 323 respectively; With this arrangement, the second adjustment assembly 35 can rotate relative to the second fixed-side connecting assembly 32. Furthermore, the second connecting piece 323 can enhance the lateral force balance of the second fixing sleeve 351 of the second adjustment assembly 35, thereby providing lateral support for the second fixing sleeve 351. When the second adjustment assembly 35 rotates relative to the second fixing sleeve 351, the forces on both sides are more evenly distributed, thereby reducing shaking. During actual application, the second fixed-side connecting assembly 32 remains relatively stationary as a whole and does not produce relative rotation.

[0024] As an optional embodiment, the flip side connection assembly 33 includes a third connection piece 331, which is detachably connected to the second upper guide rail 21 of the flip track unit 2 and can remain relatively fixed, so that the third connection piece 331 can move synchronously with the flip track unit 2, and the third connection piece 331 is rotationally connected to the second fixed side connection assembly 32. When the third connection piece 331 rotates, it can drive the flip track unit 2 to rotate synchronously. The third connection piece 331 is rotationally connected to the second adjustment assembly 35. Under the driving action of the second adjustment assembly 35, the third connection piece 331 can rotate relative to the second fixed side connection assembly 32.

[0025] As an optional embodiment, the first adjustment component 34 includes an electric push rod 341, the cylinder body of the electric push rod 341 is connected to the adjustment sleeve 312 of the first fixed side connection component 31, and the connection here is a detachable connection while being able to remain relatively fixed. The extended end of the push rod of the electric push rod 341 is rotatably connected to the high end of the second fixed side connection component 32. During the process of extending and retracting, the electric push rod 341 can drive the high end of the second fixed side connection component 32 to rotate relative to each other.

[0026] In addition, the electric push rod 341 is preferably provided with an in-position limit switch, and when the push rod of the electric push rod 341 reaches the maximum stroke, the electric push rod 341 can be powered off and stop running; Furthermore, the electric push rod 341 is preferably connected in series with a self-resetting fuse through the circuit. When the flip track unit 2 encounters an obstacle during the retraction and extension process, the load current of the electric push rod 341 reaches the working current of the self-resetting fuse, the self-resetting fuse is de-energized, and the electric push rod 341 is de-energized and stops running. After the obstacle is cleared, the user can press the reset button of the self-resetting fuse, and the electric push rod 341 can be powered on and started running.

[0027] Furthermore, in order to prevent the push rod of the electric push rod 341 from bending and deforming during the force application process, as an optional embodiment, the first adjustment assembly 34 further includes a first fixing sleeve 342, a first linear bearing 343, a first guide rod 344 and a guide rod fixing piece 345; The first fixing sleeve 342 is connected to the cylinder of the electric push rod 341 and the first linear bearing 343 respectively. The first guide rod 344 is movably connected to the first linear bearing 343 and is arranged parallel to the push rod. The guide rod fixing piece 345 is connected to the first guide rod 344 and the push rod respectively. During the process of extending or retracting the push rod of the electric push rod 341, the guide rod fixing plate 345 can be extended or retracted synchronously with the push rod of the electric push rod 341. The guide rod fixing plate 345 can drive the first guide rod 344 to move synchronously with the cooperation of the first linear bearing 343, thereby guiding the push rod of the electric push rod 341 through the first guide rod 344 and the first linear bearing 343, thereby reducing its bending deformation due to force.

[0028] As an optional embodiment, the second adjustment assembly 35 includes a second fixing sleeve 351, a second linear bearing 352, a third linear bearing 353, a support rod 354, a second guide rod 355, a third guide rod 356, and a guide rod fixing block 357; One end of the support rod 354 is provided with a tail hinge structure and is rotatably connected to the first adjustment assembly 34 through the tail hinge structure, and the other end of the support rod 354 is connected to the second fixing sleeve 351; The second linear bearing 352 and the third linear bearing 353 are respectively connected to the second fixed sleeve 351, the second guide rod 355 is movably connected to the second linear bearing 352, and the third guide rod 356 is movably connected to the third linear bearing 353. One end of the second guide rod 355 and the third guide rod 356 is connected to the guide rod fixing block 357, the guide rod fixing block 357 is rotatably connected to the flip side connecting assembly 33, and the second fixed sleeve 351 is rotatably connected to the second fixed side connecting assembly 32.

[0029] The second linear bearing 352, the third linear bearing 353, the second guide rod 355 and the third guide rod 356 can cooperate with each other to convert the rotation and linear movement of the second guide rod 355 relative to the second linear bearing 352 into only linear movement, and convert the rotation and linear movement of the third guide rod 356 relative to the third linear bearing 353 into only linear movement.

[0030] The application principle of the double-guide rail folding mechanism is as follows: during the extension or retraction of the push rod of the electric push rod 341 of the first adjusting assembly 34, the tail hinge structure of the support rod 354 can be driven to extend or retract, and at the same time, the support rod 354 is restricted by the rotation connection between the second fixing sleeve 351 and the second fixed side connecting assembly 32, and the support rod 354 can rotate relative to the connection point between the second fixing sleeve 351 and the second fixed side connecting assembly 32, which is equivalent to driving the second adjusting assembly 35 to rotate relative to the whole. In the rotation process, the second guide rod 355 and the third guide rod 356 can move linearly relative to the second linear bearing 352 and the third linear bearing 353, thereby driving the guide rod fixing block 357 to move linearly relative to the second fixing sleeve 351, thereby driving the flip side connecting assembly 33 and the flip track unit 2 to rotate relative to the fixed track unit 1 and the second fixed side connecting assembly 32, thereby realizing flipping; In this embodiment, through the careful design of the above structure, the flip side connecting assembly 33 and the flip track unit 2 can be rotated and folded from 0° to 180° relative to the fixed track unit 1, with a larger folding angle and a wider folding range, further reducing the occupied space after folding; It is also worth noting that the second adjustment component 35 only needs to be flipped 90° as a whole to achieve the overall flipping of the flip side connection component 33 and the flip track unit 2 by 180°. The first adjustment component 34 and the second adjustment component 35 cooperate with each other to effectively reduce the overall stroke of the push rod, saving more effort and energy.

[0031] As an optional embodiment, the fixed track unit 1 includes a first upper guide rail 11, a first lower guide rail 12, a first connecting structure 13 and a supporting connecting structure 14. The first upper guide rail 11 and the first lower guide rail 12 are arranged in parallel to form a double-guide rail structure, and the two are connected by the first connecting structure 13. The structural form of the first connecting structure 13 is not specifically limited here. The drawings of this embodiment preferably show the effect of the first connecting structure 13 being a U-shaped connecting rod; A first rack 121 is provided on the first lower guide rail 12, and the first rack 121 is used to cooperate with the power mechanism of the lift chair 6 for relative movement; The supporting connection structure 14 is connected to the first upper guide rail 11 and the first lower guide rail 12 respectively, and the bottom of the supporting connection structure 14 is connected to the staircase 7 . Therefore, the fixed track unit 1 is actually connected to the staircase 7 through the supporting connection structure 14 .

[0032] As an optional embodiment, the flip track unit 2 includes a second upper guide rail 21, a second lower guide rail 22 and a second connecting structure 23. The second upper guide rail 21 and the second lower guide rail 22 are arranged in parallel to form a double-guide rail structure, and the two are connected by the second connecting structure 23. The structural form of the second connecting structure 23 is not specifically limited here. The drawings of this embodiment preferably show the effect of the second connecting structure 23 being a U-shaped connecting rod; A second rack 221 is provided on the second lower guide rail 22 , and the second rack 221 is used to cooperate with the power mechanism of the lift chair 6 for relative movement.

[0033] When the flip track unit 2 is closed relative to the fixed track unit 1, the first upper guide rail 11 and the second upper guide rail 21 are connected, and the axes of the two are also located on the same straight line, forming a single guide rail in appearance. The first lower guide rail 12 and the second lower guide rail 22 are connected, and the axes of the two are also located on the same straight line, forming a single guide rail in appearance. The first rack 121 and the second rack 221 are connected, and the two form a continuous rack in appearance. The chair lift 6 can be guided by the first upper guide rail 11 , the first lower guide rail 12 , the second upper guide rail 21 , and the second lower guide rail 22 , and can move relative to the power mechanism of the chair lift 6 in cooperation with the first rack 121 and the second rack 221 .

[0034] As an optional embodiment, in order to prevent the chair lift 6 from having a safety hazard when ascending or descending due to the fixed track unit 1 and the flip track unit 2 not being completely closed, the dual-track folding mechanism further includes a track closure detection unit 4, which is arranged at the junction of the fixed track unit 1 and the flip track unit 2; Specifically, the track closure detection unit 4 includes a long roller micro switch 41, a switch fixing plate 42, and a detection contact block 43. The switch fixing plate 42 is connected to the lower portion of the first rack 121 near the end of the second rack 221. The long roller micro switch 41 is connected to the switch fixing plate 42. The detection contact block 43 is connected to the lower portion of the second rack 221 near the end of the first rack 121 and is relatively located above the long roller micro switch 41. When the flip track unit 2 is closed in place relative to the fixed track unit 1, the detection contact block 43 can form an extrusion contact with the long roller microswitch 41. The long roller microswitch 41 is connected through the circuit and can feedback the signal that the flip track unit 2 is completely closed to the lift chair 6. The lift chair 6 can move up or down. On the contrary, when the detection contact block 43 does not press the long roller microswitch 41, the long roller microswitch 41 feedbacks the signal that the flip track unit 2 is not completely closed to the lift chair 6. The lift chair 6 will not start and will not move up or down.

[0035] In fact, during the use of the lift chair 6, there may be a situation where the track folds due to user misoperation before the lift chair 6 leaves the effective folding travel range of the flip track unit 2, which may easily cause damage to the equipment and may also cause danger; Therefore, as an optional embodiment, the dual-guide rail folding mechanism further includes a folding anti-collision protection unit 5, which is connected to an end of the first rack 121 away from the second rack 221, so that it can be outside the effective folding travel range of the flip track unit 2; A self-locking switch is preferably provided inside the folding anti-collision protection unit 5. The self-locking switch can be connected to the electric push rod 341 circuit, and the button contact of the self-locking switch is located on the upper surface of the folding anti-collision protection unit 5. When the lifting chair 6 moves relative to the folding anti-collision protection unit 5, the button contact can be triggered. During actual use, it can be set that when the lift chair 6 runs from top to bottom, it passes the self-locking switch for the first time and presses the button contact, which means that the lift chair 6 has entered the effective folding area of ​​the flip track unit 2. At this time, the button contact can trigger the electric push rod 341 to cut off the power, and the electric push rod 341 cannot start folding in this state. When the lift chair 6 runs from bottom to top and enters the effective folding area of ​​the flip track unit 2, it presses the button contact for the second time. At this time, the self-locking switch is reset, and the electric push rod 341 can reconnect the circuit. The user can control the flip track unit 2 to start folding as needed. The on and off of the self-locking switch is cyclically controlled in this way, which can avoid damage to the equipment and avoid causing danger.

[0036] The above are merely specific embodiments of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any modifications or substitutions that can be easily conceived by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention should be based on the scope of protection of the claims.
