Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of outdoor electrical appliances, and more specifically to a foldable protective cover bracket and a protective cover. Background Art

[0002] Conventional generators (or other household outdoor appliances such as air compressors, pool cleaning robots, small air conditioner outdoor units, etc.) and other outdoor appliances cannot be used normally outdoors when it is raining or windy. They need to be covered with a protective cover made of cloth before they can be used in special weather or environments. Existing protective covers are generally composed of a frame made of hard metal materials and a cover made of soft materials such as cloth or waterproof tarpaulin. The main functions are:

[0003] 1. Shelter from rain to prevent water from entering the generator and affecting its use.

[0004] 2. Provide shade to prevent the generator from overheating due to sun exposure and affecting its use.

[0005] 3. Windproof to prevent strong wind from affecting the operation of the generator cooling fan.

[0006] However, existing protective covers generally require consumers to install them themselves after purchase, and there are many accessories, which are prone to unclear installation instructions and cumbersome disassembly and assembly steps. After installation, the storage volume is large and it is inconvenient to move. In addition, since the generators that need to use the protective cover are not limited to the same specifications, one protective cover cannot be used for generators of different specifications at the same time, resulting in inconvenience in use.

Detailed implementation manners

[0028] In order to further explain the technical solution of the present utility model, the following will elaborate on the present utility model in detail through specific embodiments.

[0029] As Figure 1 shown, the present utility model discloses a foldable protective cover bracket. Combining Figures 1 to 4 shown, it is a schematic diagram of the process of the protective cover bracket from full expansion to full folding. As shown in the figure, the foldable protective cover bracket of the present utility model includes two sets of cross-connected support frames 1 and at least two support rods 2 connected between the two support frames. Each support frame 1 respectively includes a horizontal cross bar 11 and leg bars 12 located at both ends of the cross bar 11. The leg bars 12 on the same side between the two support frames 1 form a front-back cross and are pivotally connected. The cross leg bars 12 form a side support surface when the two support frames 1 are expanded; the two cross bars 11 and the support rods 2 form an upper support plane when the two support frames 1 are expanded, and the support rods 2 are arranged parallel to each other between the two cross bars 11.

[0030] As Figure 1 , Figure 2 shown, in the support frame 1 of this embodiment, both ends of the cross bar 11 extend in the same direction to form two symmetric leg bars 12. The leg bars 12 and the cross bar 12 are perpendicular, and the support frame forms a "冂"-shaped or U-shaped bracket. Referring again to Figure 4In order to further save the storage space of the protective cover bracket, the support rod 12 of the support frame 1 includes a lower support rod 122 movably connected to the end of an upper support rod 121, and a connecting member is provided between the upper support rod 121 and the lower support rod 122, which can enable the lower support rod 122 to rotate and fold relative to the upper support rod 121. In this embodiment, the connecting member is an elastic drawstring 123, and the upper support rod 121 and the lower support rod 121 can be directly sleeved, and at least one elastic drawstring 123 is used to connect them at the sleeve connection, and the two ends of the elastic drawstring 123 are respectively connected to the inner ends of the upper support rod 121 and the lower support rod 122. When the two support frames 1 are rotated and folded to the minimum intersection angle of the two support legs 12, the upper end of the lower support leg 122 can be pulled out from the lower end of the upper support leg 121. Due to the flexible connection of the elastic pull rope 123, the lower support leg 122 can be rotated to a better folding angle relative to the upper support leg 121, and the two can be folded to save storage space. Of course, the connecting piece can also be in other forms that can realize the upper support leg 121 and the lower support leg 122 to be fixed when unfolded and disassembled when folded.

[0031] In this embodiment, two support rods 2 are provided between two opposite cross bars 11. When the bracket is fully unfolded, the support rods 2 are stretched straight and supported between the two cross bars 11, and the two support rods 2 are parallel to each other and perpendicular to the two cross bars 11. At this time, the support rods 2 can maintain the stability of the upper support plane, and the intersection angle of the two support rods 12 in the side support surface is not easily changed by external forces, so that the bracket remains in a stable unfolded state. Preferably, since the bracket of this embodiment is foldable, in order to adapt to the folding between the two support frames 1 and further reduce the storage volume, the two support rods 2 are folded in the middle when the two support frames 1 are folded together, and are foldably connected between the two cross bars 11. Refer to Figures 2 to 4 As shown, specifically, the support rod 2 includes a first support rod 21 and a second support rod 22. The inner ends of the first support rod 21 and the second support rod 22 are foldably connected via a connecting member 23. The outer ends of the first support rod 21 and the second support rod 22 are rotatably connected to a pivot member 24, respectively, and the pivot member 24 can be sleeved on the crossbar 11 of the two support frames 1. In this embodiment, the connecting member 23 can be a one-way connecting member that enables the first and second support rods to be folded downward, and in the pivot member 24, the outer ends of the first and second support rods can be pivoted in a pivot groove formed at the front end of the pivot member 24, and the rear end of the pivot member 24 can be sleeved on the crossbar 11. When the bracket is folded, the crossbar 11 of the two support frames 1 is retracted inwardly, and the inner ends of the first support rod 21 and the second support rod 22 are first rotated in the connecting member 23 to achieve the folding of the first support rod 21 and the second support rod 22 (as shown in FIG. 1 ). Figure 3 As shown), the outer ends of the first support rod 21 and the second support rod 22 are then rotated in the pivot member 24, so that the folded support rod 2 is rotated and retracted to the side of the cross bar 11 (as shown). Figure 4 As shown), saving storage volume.

[0032] Of course, the support rod 2 is not limited to the above structure, as long as it can meet the requirement of not occupying additional storage space when the bracket is folded. For example, the first and second support rods 21 and 22 in the support rod 2 can also be connected by sleeves and then connected by elastic ropes. The two ends of each support rod 2 can also be connected between the two cross bars 22 in a detachable manner, and hooks can be set at both ends of the support rod 2. When the two support frames 1 are unfolded, the two ends of each support rod 2 are respectively hooked on the two cross bars 11 to keep the bracket in the unfolded state. When the bracket needs to be folded, the hooks are first removed to disassemble the support rod 2, and then the two support frames 1 are rotated and folded. In this way, storage space can also be saved.

[0033] See also Figure 5 The utility model also discloses a foldable protective cover, wherein a cover body 3 is covered on the outside of the foldable protective cover bracket to form a foldable protective cover, and the cover body 3 corresponds to the shape of the protective cover bracket after unfolding. In order to enable the cover body 3 to be tightly stretched against the bracket frame when the bracket is fully unfolded, a plurality of connecting parts are provided on the cover body 3, and a plurality of fixing parts on the protective cover bracket are correspondingly provided so that the connecting parts on the cover body can be movably connected thereto, thereby fixing the cover body 3 on the bracket. Specifically, the connecting part may include fixing hooks 31 provided at the four corners of the bottom of the cover body 3, and the fixing part may include hollow fixing holes 124 provided at the bottom of each leg rod 12 of the two support frames 1, and when the cover body 3 is covered outside the protective cover bracket, each fixing hook 31 can be hooked in the fixing hole 124 of each leg rod 12 one by one. A hanging ring 32 may also be provided on the cover body 3 to facilitate the pulling and limiting of the cover body 3.

[0034] The utility model is mainly used in generators. Taking the generator as an example, the utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0035] 1. The support frame 1 and the support rod 2 can be folded together synchronously, which optimizes the support structure. On the basis of simple structure, the steps of unfolding and folding the support are simple and convenient, and no complicated installation steps are required, which improves the convenience of use.

[0036] 2. The protective cover bracket has a small storage volume and is easy to store.

[0037] 3. The cover body can have different functions such as wind and rain protection according to the choice of cover body fabric, and because there is a bracket interval between the cover body and the generator, the cover body 3 will not be close to the generator to affect its heat dissipation.

[0038] 4. It can be applied to generators of different specifications. When the generator is large, the entire utility model can be placed on the upper surface of the generator, and the support rods do not touch the bottom surface; when the generator is small, the support rods are supported on the ground, and the protective cover covers the entire generator inside.

[0039] The above is only an embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
